Deicide4u Posted Monday at 11:07 Report Share Posted Monday at 11:07 Please share your replays against the AI here. Here's a couple from me. AI difficulty is Medium, but it feels more difficult to beat than even Hard AI from A27. As usual, there's a lot of floating resources around CarthageVSPersia_M.zip RomeVS_Sparta_M.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tapothei Posted Monday at 11:47 Report Share Posted Monday at 11:47 (edited) Ye I notice how the VH AI is keeping up with unit production, usually once they send their army, their economy is crippled. Now they have some leftover to rebuild their economy. I'm not sure if I can ever beat 4VH as Han now. - First replay(1), I'm always double the AI in terms of score so notice how it scored 1.5k higher the usual, this was probably my 4th gameplay. - So I've learn a lot from multiplayer so my gameplay has improved in 2nd replay(2) and maybe its my game setting(200 max pop) or something but I'm surprised the AI had only 1 Civil Centre... usually it would be 3 or 4 by now.. Actually thats an old replay, I think I deleted the 200 pop replay, oh well, its just the usual setting. - Third game... Its actually keeping up with me lol. commands(2).txt commands(1).txt commands(Just look at the score).txt Edited Monday at 16:33 by Tapothei 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seleucids Posted Monday at 12:08 Report Share Posted Monday at 12:08 I was the one who improved the AI's eco and the army size hehe I hope it's not too hard for new players 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRose Posted Monday at 15:06 Report Share Posted Monday at 15:06 Does Hard and Very Hard AI only have more resources, or do they actually act smarter, too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deicide4u Posted Monday at 16:31 Author Report Share Posted Monday at 16:31 (edited) @DesertRose, they have better base gather rates for their workers, which makes them faster. Maybe they also amass larger armies, but I'm not sure if that is true with this release. Medium AI is the only "fair" difficulty where the AI gets no resource advantages or disadvantages. Otherwise, it's not smarter. Edited Monday at 16:32 by Deicide4u Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deicide4u Posted Tuesday at 13:22 Author Report Share Posted Tuesday at 13:22 @Tapothei It's actually funny how you can just mass hundreds of units and capture full HP CCs and Fortresses without any siege. Maybe I just prefer destruction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just lost the last two matches against Medium AI. This new AI doesn't leave room for mistakes. Pretty depressing when you look back at the last hour and realize you just wasted it because none of your old tactics work. And I didn't get to have fun, either. Don't know, I'm on the fence here. On one hand, I need to improve in order to just beat the default AI. On the other, the AI now requires knowing the competitive meta in order for you to stand a chance. Here is the last match, for what it's worth. RomansVS_MAI.zip Edited 4 hours ago by Deicide4u Added a replay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRose Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago So far the AI feels rather toothless to me. I have not seen them attack before the 12-14 minute mark, and they usually only attack with like 40 units max. Never seen them attack with 80 units like in the replay above. That's a good value for that state of the game. Would love if the AI also sometimes attacks after 2-4 minutes and 6-8 minutes to keep you on your toes.

Set the behavior to "Aggressive", it should attack more often and sooner. 9 minutes ago, DesertRose said: Never seen them attack with 80 units Yeah, I was also surprised to see that many units. Crossbowmen destroyed me. EDIT: Here is one for the revenge. What changed, is I increased the average batch size of units, to keep resources low.

DesertRose Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Even against Hard Aggressive AI they only attack after 12 minutes. Not sure if they attacked sooner because of Aggressive or Hard. Vs_Aggressive_Hard_AI.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
