I've changed my mind. I want TCP/IP over AI now.

I don't have two uninterupted hours much less TCP/IP time. Market wise, Online gaming is probably a miniscule fraction of sales, even more so for turn based wargames as opposed to twitch and shoot stuff or RTS. Give me better AI.

I think very few people will have the time or want to spend their entire weekend multi-play a turn based game. At least I will never try that, even if I do get 10 hours free I wont spend it all on a game (and if I do, my friends don't).

I vote for AI.

(ps, how many turns can u play in 10 hours anyway, 40? probably won't even meet your human adversary ).

I have seen this debate on every single forum for strategy games in my days. There's always those who want it and those who don't. I say put it in there and give people the choice. That's what sells, alot of choices to make.

you will never be happy with any AI and it will always be beatable and never stand up to a human.

just pass me the TCP IP ..and you guys fiddle here and wait for neverending patches to make slightly less beatable AI..woopie



i would never buy a game to play against myself/and or AI....only to learn the game and then to play a human and see how one can really do
