Totally Dumb AI at the moment

[marseu]

Playng vs AI, I see that AI continuosly sends convoys on routes under fire, also if I hit and destroy tanks in front of the column it still advance with AA vehicles alone or IFV alone.
AI helis always expose themselves too much as easy preys for my well positioned AA systems.
Finally AI seems not very capable of using airplanes, cause it never uses SEADS, sends AT airplanes without AA airplanes escort etc.
Hope this AI will be improved especially before the realese of Campigns.

Note: i'm using 2x distance mod that adds so much realism to the game I think this should be the default distances in Vanilla game

+1 mods can mess with AI in any game, but yes I agree, if a road is "blocked" by your fire, they should not send arty or AA down there.
i think AI actually used SEAD against me, maybe play on a higher difficulty if it is too easy

and tbh AI Air and Helicopter spam is just a meme at this point, but on "Hardest" they actually make better decisions and have decent micro, in my opinion even better than most 10v10 players lol

Does the IA plays better on harder difficulties? Or does the increase in difficulty come from higher income and availability like many other games?

The AI does have different behavior on higher difficulties - most notably, it puts more emphasis on artillery and aircraft on more difficult settings.

"Very Hard" and "Impossible" difficulty settings are the only ones where the AI gets a boost to income and unit availability, IIRC.

And, for the sake of completeness, Unit Statistics stay the same across all difficulties - the AI units always the same in performance as they are in the players' hands.

so the AI is so dumb that it's awfull ?
