...only on Hard difficulty. That's kinda the point of Hard difficulty: it's, wait for it, harder.
| No. You'd think that after 30+ years, game developers would start writing better AIs instead of still needing to make the AI cheat in order to make it win.

Welcome to the world of EA, where it doesn't matter how many bugs are in the game just as long as the game looks pretty.

AI is still developing, and it will take long time for it to be smart enough, so that it does not have to cheat.
I have yet to see a strategy game where AI does not cheat.
Actually, I think that AI in Praetorians does not really cheat, but I don't know for sure.
|
PacMan... although that's a lot less strategy, I think.
In any case, how in the hell do you expect AIs to get better when game companies just go "oh, we'll just make it cheat!"?

The AI in the following games cheats for certain as map editors/leaks allowed you to see.
Unreal tournament GOTYE (who hasn't seen that formula? the on where their damage is multiplied relavent to thier skill level)
Starcraft (yes, even Starcraft, the AI know what you are doing... they know when you are about to attack)
AI is a complex thing, if anyone who complained can program, try this:
Make a program that can think like you and adapt to anything you input. try it, i'll see you in thirty years.
Renguard is a wonderful initiative
