So why does the AI not play both sides?


Recommended Posts

Am I the only one who would sometimes like to watch the AI play both sides? Would be like watching a film and a darn good learning experience for newbies.

It seems not too dificult to introduce an AI-hotseat battle, like other games. Come on BTS! In a future patch?

Or maybe in CM2 then? biggrin.gif

I was thinking this very thing last night. I think it would be great for testing scenarios, if only for time considerations.

BUMP! This is a definite must for CM2. Also, it would be nice if BTS could stick in an 'auto setup' option for quick battles. There are those times that I come home from a long day at work and just need to blow up a sherman or three, but don't want to bother with purchase or setup.

Hmmm, I guess... But wait, with technology what it is, what about TCP/IP AI interfaces. I could just dial up someone elses PC, and have my AI play their AI. Multiple CMAIMC's where the AI's control small units on a multi-level battlefield. Could even have AI ladders. Course, then you'd have some AI's getting gamey, refusing to surrender and attempting to bore the other AI into a power down sleep mode... On second thought, I think I'll just play the thing myself. smile.gif

I really don't care much about AI vs AI but I searched through the forum and the closest I came to why this wont happen in a patch is the link below.

But if BTS changes the code (not a very easy thing to do and I know because I play a programmer in real life) it might get into CM2. But you need to ask BTS if it will get into CM2.

Combined with "full battle replay" this would be very cool.

Have the AI calculate everything first, and then watch the whole

battle in one go. Instant war movie. smile.gif<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Watch it, hell! I'm gonna bet on it!

Think of the spread, the bookies... CM would be the ultimate horse-race. I'm taking this idea to Vegas!!!
