Sins of a Solar Empire

*gasp*, you mean they're easy now?

Trinity Easy AIs were pretty easy. They never really had a chance of winning. But these guys aren't even fighting.

If I recall correctly, Easy and Normal were made easier, while Hard and above were made harder.

It was already the case that the AIs went from trivial to nigh-unbeatable without a middle ground. Have they made that even more the case?

I don't think so, I think they made it less of a gap. Hard AIs no longer get any resource bonuses, but start with two frigate factories which apparently helps the AI play better. They also made it so AIs are smart enough to save up money for stuff instead of just spending everything right away.

Hmm. That's good. The AI difficulty gap is one of the very few criticisms of SoaSE that I've seen turn up in multiple places.

That Trinity easy AI fought pretty hard in that one game we played.

The question that now remains is whether the AI is so good or you are so bad

I still haven't figured out what the hell was going on there. I've had it happen again, though. Mandalore and I had a terrible time against a couple of Vasari Easy AIs recently. Like the one we played, they was doing stuff that I've never seen Easy ones do anywhere else.

Sins match, anyone?

[Pat22]

I'd take you up on that offer but I have this strange feeling that I should be going outside, doing something physical or otherwise productive.
Maybe later this evening?

6 PM UTC -6:00 sound good?

Jedi has Rebellion
Pat has Rebellion
ACH has Rebellion
Avenger has Rebellion
Fenway has Rebellion
Tiel has Rebellion

I also know a handful of people working on a mod for Rebellion that I might be able to convince to participate.

WE CAN MAKE THIS WORK.

[Chairman_Tiel]

Also, Rebellion is currently ten american dollars on Steam.

I guarantee nothing, but I should theoretically be able to play at that time.

[Pat22]

I cleaned my paintball gear that had been lying in a bag covered in paint for like two weeks now, that's gonna count as something physical.
I would actually go PLAY paintball but it's 4pm and there'll be fraktons of traffic so no thanks. I'll go some other day.
I can play now. My conscience has been appeased.

[Chairman_Tiel]

That's 5pm forum time, by the way.
