Re: Question for Beta Testers on the new AI
Seawolf, thanks for the good info. I thought that might be the case.

Re: Question for Beta Testers on the new AI
Here is what Aaron has told me about the new AI.
"They're pretty good now without any bonus. But a human player will always
be smarter."

Re: Question for Beta Testers on the new AI
Hey, I've progressed from seventh to fifth in the score rankings of my new game. Maybe I'll make it to the end after all...  |

Re: Question for Beta Testers on the new AI
Emperor Zodd/Aaron, how long can you fool yourselves telling we humans will always be better than AI. I bet SE VI will prove different!

Re: Question for Beta Testers on the new AI
Zodd:
No bonuses, though I did use the 'difficult' level instead of the default 'medium' level. I've got eight AI empire opponents and a handful of neutrals. One less neutral than before, though, since I assimilated one. I started literally in the corner of the map with ONE warp point out, and the system leading out to the rest of the quadrant was occupied by the neutral. I managed to pass through for a while but when relations got difficult I had to defeat him to get unrestricted access. I built 300 medium troops and invaded his homeworld. Now I have methane breathers to supplement my oxygen breathing original race. I'm up to 4th in the ranking now. The AI is just not as focused as a human and I guess it never will be, so you can almost always beat it in a single system if you work at it. |

Re: Question for Beta Testers on the new AI
Great Baron.
If you set the AI to low bonus(2x),don't you think that might be too much of an increase now that no bonus is tougher?
Wouldn't 1.5x,2x,3x be better for low,mid,and high bonus'?
