I’m one of those for whom the AI on the lower levels is challenging. I don’t play the game for extended periods of time and I’m always starting over, it seems.

Now that I understand that the AI is poor, the chances that I’ll devote a lot of time to the game are diminished. I don’t have the time for multiplayer so games with poor AIs get pushed to the bottom of the pile.

Hm just like me in these weeks. I have no time for MP, but I play with the singleplayer, regardless that the AI is poor.
Until the AI is improved, just play against allied AIs, it is a good challenge, but don't drop the game, have faith in the devs.

Proteus appears to have gone and made some 35 accounts, I guess all of them have voted for the two bottom alternatives, so if we assume no one else pulled a similar stunt, approximately 3/4 of the people responding to the poll think the AI is good, for whatever that is worth.

Are you sure that he voted at all, or that he voted for the bottem 2?
I will ask him tomorrow anyways, I cannot talk with him right now.

Limited Wish, in the sense that you can wish for it, but it doesn't actually happen?

Well I wouldn't take the word of whiners that the AI is poor. It can still keep me at bay after many months playing Doms I and II, and has beaten me or given me a very tough fight much more often than I have beaten it, when there are multiple AI's in the game and some or all of them have bonuses.

I've had first-rate, challenging and interesting games against the AI - as fun and interesting as I've had from any game.
