Really loving the new patch. Things run a heck of a lot smoother. The AI is much better at utilizing fleet supply and things just generally work!

[quote who="Marsujenherra" reply="8" id="3127600"]I think the pirates are good XP for cap ships.[/quote] That's what I was going to say. I love getting attacked by pirates, especially now with Titans. My only problem is that the AI nuked the AI in less than an hour with a Novalith strike [e digicons]X([/e]
[quote who="cbray" reply="17" id="3136126"]angryandroid - thanks for the info. We're definitely looking into these issues, including the early researching of Titan tech.[/quote] Cool, thanks for the update :-) Nicos78, I know what you mean. I've had a few dud Economy AI's as well that do exactly what you describe. More times than not however, they have seemed akin to Sins of old that I remember. Admittedly, I haven't tried vicious AI yet but plan to play
I am wondering if the AI is going to be sorted out in patches which are close? I've played a number of test games against hard AI where their ability to build fleets seemed entirely broken. I watched some replays and specified different AI types to find different results. Economy AI - these are fun to play against. They consistently build fleets with a decent mix of frigates and capital ships. I end up fighting against them first as they have provided a half decent challen
I played another game last night with 3v3 and a mixture of AI types. I was quite impressed with the Economy AI on my team. Although it didn't build any defenses (strange), it did go on a mass butt kicking spree against the other AI (tiny bit of help from me). Maybe I was lucky.
/*Feedback The AI does not build enough Frigates nor does it attack the human player with any frequency at the moment. Interestingly enough, the 2 Hard Aggressive AI's that I put into the last game fought each other and didn't horde their resources, nor build any mines. */
I've noticed the same thing and am about to play a game against 2 aggressive AI's to see if that makes a difference.
