How do AI difficulty levels work?

[Sokol]

I thought only very hard and hardest got income/unit availability boosts, i played match against a MEDIUM AI using a deck that I made for it to have, and this deck only had ONE mi-24, yet it deployed 2

Am i wrong or did something get changed regarding the AI levels?

Play on HARD...
AI plays well with no cheats/extra units/etc

If you team up on a deck... say 2 versus 1 ... the team that stands alone gets double the units to compensate for being outnumbered. The odds are even'ed.
Easy/Medium/Hard do not add deck multipliers.

Don't give AI decks weak decks...if you want a decent fight.
Let them use decks that you would use.
A lot of people complain about the AI after giving them weak or spam decks.
If you give the AI a decent deck, you could be surprised.

I play on hard sometimes too i just give them no helicopters because theyre too predictable
AI sends ALL of the helicopters in the beginning of the match at any difficulty

I don't want to play silly helicopter piss wars with the computer in the beginning of the match every time
So unless they change that about the AI i will never give them helicopters

Hi, AI dev here :
- All difficulty have their own strategy (except Hard for now, but this is coming), which make them "smarter"
- Very Hard and Hardest have Infinite Memory, Medium and Hard have 180 seconds of memory, bellow difficulties have 120 seconds of memory
- Very Hard and Hardest (only) have income and unit bonus
- Very easy and Easy have an experience malus

Hope you enjoy the game and have fun againt AI. Don't forget this is an EA and a lot of things are coming in the futur. "

Probably some kind of bug it had extra helicopters when it shouldn't have, weird but i'm sure if it is something they'll fix it

I've seen this happen the last couple of games as well. They helispam, I knock them down. Ka-50 w/ Mi-24 and Strela support is deadly!
