I've found playing against weaker bots you lose on the sort of human nature of weaker players. In particular humans tend to have a bit of an internal narrative, but weaker chess bots tend to just throw in shitty moves.
It's pretty well known that bots resort to cheating to win at stuff like Civ. I'm sure there's a patch out there that removes the cheating, and you can stomp on computers there.
- isolli 3y agoCiv evo [0] applies the same rules to AI and human players. It is supposed to have a very strong AI. Also, AI does not have a personality (friendly, aggressive, etc.); it just wants to win. Unfortunately, I could never bring myself to learn this new variant. [0] http://c-evo.org/ http://c-evo.org/
- WJW 3y agoThe problem with video game bots in games like Civ is that "playing well" is not actually the core goal of the devs. Rather, it has to be enjoyable to play against and easy enough to build and debug in the limited time available until release. Given those constraints, most game devs just give the bot free resources and call it a day. If somebody would bother to put in the time to make it, a well-crafted Civ bot could probably roflstomp every human out there just by virtue of perfectly micromanaging its production in every city on every turn without effort.
