Thread: TATW AI

  1. #1

    Default TATW AI

    i follow your work since many months and the result is amazing looking at graphics and accuracy. i dunno if it was discussed before but, what about AI in campaign and battles?
    is it challenging? is it hardcore? did you use previous AI improvement like darth ones or DLV?
    what could you tell us about it?

    thx

    You'd better post this in the "Ask questions here" thread

    But anyway, they're using a minimod so the AI is better than in Medieval2... I can't remember what mod (I think "Lusteds AI" but I don't know )
    Computer crashed... SAD

    Then try to solve a rubics cube while playing battles Or write down all 50 US states (hint: they renamed Texas to 'Bushland')

    They make everything more challenging and fun. Elaborating is not one of my talents I'm afraid

    Challenging as in undoable?

    Reminds of something the Roma Surrectum 2.0 team once said: If you can play 1.5c on VH/VH with ease, you are still going to get your ass kicked by the AI in 2.0

    Will this be similar?

    Hope so It's fun if you can lose while doing everything you can.
    I like a challenge.

    The skill level of the people interested in this mod most likely varies a lot. It won't exclusively appeal to hardcore TW players, but to anyone interested in Lord of the Rings. 'Undoable' doesn't sound right for this kind of mod. Personally, I like a challenge, but I don't like having to redo the same thing more than about 10 times because it's so difficult. I'll get pissed off and punch people in the nuts.

    EDIT: Just realized I'm discriminating against women. Of course I meant: I'll get pissed off and punch people in the crotch. If the nearest person is a woman, I will not hesitate to punch her, I'm 100% pro equality and emancipation. No woman left unpucnhed!

    Alright somehow that statement is just evil!

    Anyways i do enjoy a good challenge now and then, heck i don't even mind getting my ass kicked completely. Point is i don't want to see things like factions that attack with 40+ stacks or more, which happens in Roma Surrectum 1.5c rather often with the powerfull factions like Rome, Macedon, Carthage etc.

    Except for mordor, but they need those stacks too make up for the quality of their units, otherwise i hate that many stacks

    Haha ok, because personally i found the AI in SS was good, but i've been close to losing (did lose my capitol once or twice) I thought it was kinda easy. So i hope for a very good AI (on the highest difficulties) so i can lose every once in a while.

    Improved AI that sounds good, but in what way is the IA being inproved? will they make a better mixe of range foot and cavalerie? ore will they use a propper battle formation? and will the AI have a variation in there tactics and not use the same old tekstbook maneuvre? I hope so

    They hired master chess player Bobby Fischer as the AI. You will lose, and you will like it.
