The AI is beyond stupid

[Jahn]

They litterally send command units directly into enemy territory.

Just now i witnessed a M2A2 being send straight into 4 T-55's, whilest 2 M1A2's were tailing behind it.

Why? What is it even trying to do?

capping with an high end tank with good decent armor ?

The Bradleys were decimated long before the Abrams's were even in shooting distance.

The ALB and WARNO AI are significantly better. Use RD only for mass onslaught like tower defense games.

Yea, for some reason ALB AI is more interesting to play against. Still lots of weird decisions, but there is SOME semblance of defensive positions and flanking...

Its because the AI has pre defined decks and is programmed for each map. RD uses some general AI that will use what you give it and try its best.

I give the AI rather poor and medium units but lots of them and then let it rush me with a huge mass. Its fun to defend against this. After 30minutes or so the AI is then broken and you can go to the offense.

I know that, it's just a tower defense... didn't know that ALB AI was preprogrammed for each map though, that's news to me :)

Is there any RTS game with decent AI? Honest question, I've been playing RTS games of every sort longer than some of the players have been living and I have yet to see one that was challenging and didn't just spam to compensate.

Eugen started doing more with AI starting with the Steel Division games. WARNO also has this style of AI.

Steel Division 1 actually has a campaign with scripted missions that playout based on actual battles. I personally think it's worth a few bucks at least just to play through them as they're pretty well done.

That's the fun part of this game lol XD, mobile tower defense haha, but seriously tho ALB and SD have a better AI somehow, not exactly "perfect" but it's just better than RD, still, I love playing this game both AI skirmish and MP with friends (playing MP with random guys feels like fighting a random drunken dude at the pub)
