AI Cheating?

[Akboris]

In what ways do the AI cheat in this game?

I have noticed that the AI can spring harvesters out of thin air once you have destroyed them.
If they have a refinery they will always have a single harvester to go with it.

The AI also seems to be able to use abilities without required line of sight.

In one of the challenges the AI managed to create 8 giga-fortresses. (The challenge was not related to them) Is that possible?

It's been well noted that the Brutal AI gets twice the resources when it gathers ore, among other things.

A lot of people claim that the AI support power cooldowns are shorter. I believe it.

I've never seen the AI use abilities on me without direct vision however.

The Brutal AI might also have global vision, but the AI isn't really that smart, to the point I would believe someone if they said that they did not have global vision after all. If they had global vision and were smart enough to act against you, they wouldn't be going through the exact same strategies every time.

As for replacing Harvesters, it's a surprisingly quick process that is the special ability of Ore Refineries, so I doubt that there's a dedicated cheat for that.

And about the Giga Fortress spam... yeah, that happens a lot. If you play the map Trench Warfare against Empire Brutal AI you will have to mass up Air Superiority fighters if you don't kill them before they tech up and start building Giga Fortresses. Perhaps it's possible to do it yourself, but the AI having twice as much income makes it easier for them obviously.

This Game is on hardcore mode easier than Tiberian Dawn. Pls try it again.

for economy? yea i feel like they have the advantage its like they gain twice the amount u get thats why getting rid of their oil collectors will slow them from spamming units at u
