Was going to buy the game and then!

In responce to the initial subject- "Was going to buy the game and then!"

Every game I buy has major AI problems. Hearts of Iron 2, Rome: Total War, World at War, Battles in Normandy, etc.

I would say the Dominions 2 probably has the most competitive and realistic AI of any game I've played. Is it perfect, no, but neihter are humans.

I think that the lack of diplomacy will scare a lot of players away but such features are propably tertiary concerns to the devs. Such a small team propably has to set some strick paths when adding new features...

I think the AI is a bit lacking - programming it to use the same exploits/"exploits" as humans use would make it a lot better.

Well in SP I don't use exploits. I just follow sound strategy. But sound strategy may be what the AI will never be able to do.
