what if there is a room with two big daddy's and you attack one. Will the other come to kill you or will it just be defensive and not engage you.

I think it would just stay in defensive of the LS, probably grab a bag of popcorn and watch... then cry afterwards because he has no mouth to eat the delicious food. :(

That would actually be very interesting. My guess is it depends on whether the AI is put into 'teams' to help eachother or whatever. To be honest, I'm guessing this is one only the devs have a good answer for :)

Because the big daddy's need to protect the little sisters they should. The little sister is in danger of me. Of course there may be two little sisters out at once i wonder if a big daddy only protects the little sister it is escorting.

Yes, for the last time, yes.

Maybe a BD will "adopt" a LS if they find one whose BD is killed (like if they walk in on you about to kill a LS)? Slightly off topic, but...

I think that the BDs will watch out for eachother, not in the team sort of way, but... if one notices you attacking another, it should attack you, no?

Then again, it is possible that there will never be a circumstance where this could happen.

I acutally think that the big daddys dont like each other and the other would just walk away

or you would see them battle it out by slapping each other (slowly)

I wonder if they have the intelligence to work out what is happening? They form a bond with the LS they escort around, and that is it, if it walked in on you, it wouldn't register what is happening unless the LS it's escorting becomes anxious about the combat. Then it might try to push both you and the BD engaged in combat away.

That would be fun if you get BD attacking BD!

My guess is the one you hadn't attacked would just grab his own Little Sister and run off.

I think the major question here is: could you kill an incredibly powerful big daddy without a stray bullet or tripwire hitting the second big dady or little sister in the room. They aren't very easy to kill, so the odds of this happening are slim to none. However, I would imagine that the second big daddy, as long as he and his sister are OK, would just stay relaxed. That's what he would do if you were fighting a splicer. Plus, if 2K went in depth (which I'm sure they did), with character behaviors, then the second big daddy's reaction would be minimal, because he has probably seen more bloodshed and war than you could see in three Bioshock games. Plus, they seem to be very relaxed around very dangerous characters, due to their confidence in their defensive abilities.

In the E3 2007 Demo on Gamespot, two Big Daddies are shows duking it out. If something like this occurred, I'm sure you could get them to engage one another. But the second Big Daddy may not even care since his only priority is within the safety of his Little Sister. However, if the second Big Daddy comes along without a Little Sister (heading to pick one up) who knows what might happen. Maybe he'll carelessly pass by, or he may even lend a helping hand.

Kinda off topic but: if the big daddy has about half a centimetre of health will it bolt? Cause if so its gonna b pretty hard to catch the bouncer daddy ;)

While it has a LS to protect, i think it will give it's life 100%. It might be fun to see him do some kind of slam attack on you, which knocks you over, giving him enough time to grab the LS, and dash off, and then if you sneakily follow, you see the BD and LS at a health station, she's activating the health dispenser, while scolding the BD for being so silly, the BD making embarrassed noises.

i'm definately going to try that; will a big daddy help another protect its little sister, or will it only care about its own little sister.

It would be interesting if you could engineer fights between BDs or BDs and splicers, without the use of a plasmid.

Maybe. This could be possible, it may even be a secret achievement to get two bog daddys to fight!
