Default Re: Has Anyone Ever Lost to the AI Before?

I lost to the AI a lot when learning to play. If I ran into the Terrans or Sergetti within 10 or 15 turns of start, on a stock Gold game, I lost.

Default Re: Has Anyone Ever Lost to the AI Before?

I have never beat the AI does that count as loosing?

..and I have never won against 'real players' either, does that count as loosing?

I can win if I play with no computer players or neutral players. At the start of those games it says "You Win, do you want to continue?" hmmm, does that count as a win?

Yes I AM that bad.

Cheers!

Sure, I lost to the AI in the beginning. I lost several games of SE III while trying to figure out what the heck was going on. I also lost to the Jraenar the first time I encountered them. It was very early in the game, and as PvK said above, some races can be pretty nasty when they have an early advantage and show up nearby.

This is something human players also like to do to newbies, and even not-so-newbies.
