New A.I
« on: January 06, 2010, 04:22:30 PM »
I was wondering whether the new A.I being included in EF will allow NPC sides to make more intelligent choices of doctrine units, for example not spamming a rediculous amount of Calliopes and actually building the Hummel.

Also will the A.I be able to use reward units?
Although maybe thats not possible...

Cheers  :)

 (Clears throat)
 Modifying PRE-existing factions in ANY way... is out of
 question :)
 - Can torture AI all they want with SOVIETS/OSTHEER,
 not with original factions, I believe.
 - I like the hummel :)
 - Reward Units? Interesting idea... I don't recall ever
 seeing AI using Reward Units... maybe soviet/ostheer AI
 could ;)

 ... Unless a DEV says otherwise ;)

Cripes Loup I've been around long enough to see that old chestnut posted a very large number of times  :P

 I'm sure I read that the new A.I is going to apply to all factions and not just the new ones...

Lulz is right, Sweeten has improved the AI on all factions... touching the other factions would mean improving their weapons and such, which we're not, we're just improving their abilities to use them ;)

Also, I don't think they do use reward units, but I can always ask Sweeten to see if its possible.

Ah see I thought it was the case.

Aye would definately be cool for the AI to use reward units, add abit more of a random element to my lonely old skirmishes haha  :D

Cheers

hope u can make an uber Pro AI for those lonelys night w/out Inet...

British Comandos dropped in well places, not all stucks in the same place, PE ussing the hummel or placing Bobby traps would be nice... who knows! maybe the AI really using the Howitzers  or british moving the AT emplacements (they never do ):  )

Cheers!

I would really like the AI improved because I mostly play skirmishes and sometimes Automatch I don't play basic because there isn't really cooperation between teammates

How about an auto AI function that takes over for a sucky teammate? I would LOVE that :)

Does the AI take about an hour to finally get to their point? It seems as if they build a spam army before attacking it. I hope that if I play on Route N13 with Russians you always get an epic battle.

Route N13 is my favourite map. It ALWAYS turns out epic even if playing with easy AI.
