"A horrible person". That's what it says. "A horrible person."

We weren't even testing for that.

Let's face it - who hasn't seen something like this in the past?



It's really funny when you play a game against (or with) the AI, and then it decides to do something really stupid that makes it easy for you to kill it. I could watch such moments all day.

AOE1 is awesome

What I'd do in that game is send some units (usually ships if there's water around) to attack the AI's buildings. They'd send villagers to repair them, and said villagers would keep repairing even if attacked, so I'd kill them off one by one. That would typically completely wreck their economy for the whole game.

Though that's less of the AI setting it up to be destroyed and more like being unable to understand things.

It's like in Pokemon RGB where Lance would try to kill you with Agility. In the later games they fixed it, though they still do completelly stupid things when they could defeat you otherwise.
Though it's funny how in Black and White they keep insisting in destroying your "fighting type" with psychic attacks after it was innefective. You'd think they'd have made them realize that if a move doesn't work they shouldn't use it...

To be honest I'm not seeing what the AI is doing in that screengrab.

I have dealt with pretty stupid AI before. It really sucks trying to build a city in Caesar III, and because I am so anal and want a block system, that some houses may end up devolving because the walking employee that's supposed to symbolize access to that service decides to turn left or right, but not straight ahead or the other way like how I want it to be.

And then I discovered the gated community trick and all was good.

Halo AI is the best. Half the time it suicides or Betrays it's team for you.

Edit: Around 3:29 in this video is a perfect example.

Need for Speed 3/4's AI exists to be broken. Specifically, Cop cars nerf you, but they aren't made to put up with when you nerf them. Sure, their basic anti-crash AI will cause them to veer onto the road, but they don't have any sophisticated technique and can just be punted off the road.

This is even worse with other drivers--you can nerf any of them you want off the road or even lure them into hitting traffic/other cops without breaking a sweat.

This is another good example of some... intentionally stupid AI. (Since it IS set to 'easy', after all.)

I always got pissed when the buildings collapsed because that guy was too stupid to walk past. It's pretty much all I remember of that game nowadays.

MM88's vid is utterly hilarious, oh my god. I totally forgot how awful the Mario Party CPUs are when set to "easy". Also, Mitsuda's score is really really cute. That song that plays during the music note thing is adorable.

Didn't the AI in Mario Party do dumb things sometimes, like waste items or decline the star? I know I've seen that before

I mean, what human player would say "no" to the star?

Easy indeed.

I actually haven't seen them decline the star, I thought they'd be smart enough not to do that.

I've had them decline the star if they were ahead, once or twice. On one of the higher difficulties no less.
