Ok two things:
The AI, I've done some professional work on computer games before and AI is really difficult. In my opinion, the AI does have its problems, but I think there's a reason for that. The game was designed to be open ended for modification and improvement so a lot of the AI algorithms probably had to be generalized, because almost anything can be changed. It's a lot easier to design an AI which only has to deal with a specific set of situations and moves so to speak. However, the AI has greatly improved in even just the few months since I bought this game in February. As for the customer service, I'm not sure what you're gripe is. How many companies continually release upgrades and patches that incorporate user suggested changes and improvements or make allowances for Users to do so? Personally I know of very few companies that have given me responses so quickly when I sent in email. As for your second post, this is an honest question not sarcastic, but are you so sure that the modders and solo players are in the minority and that people who want TCP/IP play are in the majority? I mean seriously how do you know?
