I think the thing with FOG is slitherine has an amazing MP system setup, so that casual gamers that normally never would have played traditional play by email or joined a club ladder or whatnot, ventured in MP and became addicted. To the point that they really dont play vs the AI at all. i personally feel the AI is on par with any other tactical AI of this genre. The real limitations appear to be (if your playing the DAG battles) the Ai force selection isnt the best ( always buys max leaders and puts them in the best units which then are dribbled behind the battle line, where leaders likly should go but doesnt give the Ai a good strike force) One of the feature requests players have been asking for is a way to buy the AI forces for it, maybe even deploy for the AI before letting it do its thing.rich12545 wrote:Interesting replies. I should have mentioned I'm more of a casual gamer. I look for fun games that are somewhat challenging and not real complex. PC and BA fit the bill for example and it looks like FoG would as well. I looked at the matrix forum and it seems like a lot of folks there play against the computer and there aren't too many complaints. It seems like players here are more hardcore and are more discriminating as far as the AI is concerned.
This is a good question that is asked periodically. The simplest way would be to post in the "Leagues & Tournaments & Seeking Opponents" forum (see viewforum.php?f=95 ) and explain your position and ask for an opponent that meets your needs. This could be another inexperienced player, or a more competent player to give feedback via the in game messaging or whatever.rich12545 wrote:I can't make any more purchases anyway until my next ss check comes in on 8-3 so I'm going to think about it some more. I'm wondering how easy it is to play multi against only casual players to get a good game. Do you know the experience level of other players online? Or do you just take your chances and find your ass getting whipped over and over?
