gwgardner Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I haven't checked back to this forum since way before the release of the big patch. Prior to that, I got the impression that most players felt the AI was very weak, and therefore the game couldn't hold one's interest very long. Has that changed with the introduction of the big patch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon_j_rambo Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I'm not an A.I. player, so I have no idea. Far as H2H, game is fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaoJah Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I play mainly against the AI and it has greatly improved. It can always be improved, of course, but it's already a good AI as it is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arado234 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 When i first played the ai it was pretty easy to fool.Now it will try and do the most logical thing(most of the time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaMonkey Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 What's the deal gwg, you been living in a cave? Perhaps you are just trolling, a pathetic attempt at disguise. Or maybe you've never heard of the SC legacy? If so....you have the forum's permission to ... REJOICE!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwgardner Posted January 12, 2007 Author Share Posted January 12, 2007 I'm cautious about getting new games. Been burned too many times. Not trolling. Just wistful for a game that could compare to the fun of the old board games I used to play in the 70s, like War in the East (SSI). So many PC games fall way short. The graphics of SC2 put me off in the demo version, but I can live with that if the AI is good. so I will definitely buy it now with all the good reports above. thanks.

Lars Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Not as detailed as War in the East. More like Third Reich, without having to argue over the rules. Er, except for what we do here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Dave Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 ... so I will definitely buy it now with all the good reports above. WELL worth the price, gwg, And best part? YOU! Can make it PRECISELY how you'd like it. The Editor is unprecedented, And from what I can gather, Glancing around at other similar kinds Of games to come [... ahem, one of which seems to be "borrowing" an AWFUL LOT of Hubert's schemes & ideas, well, sometimes, I guess, you gotta do that when you ain't got much... Mojo Moxie of yer own, eh? ] THIS Editor will - REMAIN that way. By an immense length. And EVEN IF you are notso apt At that... as of... yet, You soon enough WILL be. It is VERY easy to learn, Either the Event or AI schematics, yea, There are detailed instructions For each and EVERY file, And "help" provided, Not only in-game, but Also by VERY accomplished SC Cats, Here, and over to the work-shop AKA... Mod Forum. :cool: More like Third Reich, without having to argue over the rules. Er, except for what we do here. Arguing, Discussing, Debating, At mainly gracious decibel & percussion, Keeps any "work in progress" vital & fresh, O Yes, as is necessary. And thank the Lucky Stars! Lars, For that! Whether it be, Improving the Game, Or, Perhaps, if pro-actively Bent, and/or intractably intent, Him and her and them and you, And, possibly... even me, IE, Old collar-less dogs CAN learn new! Licks & tricks. [ January 12, 2007, 07:32 AM: Message edited by: Desert Dave ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
