Why does multi player put AI in a Pantheon match game? I want multi "PLAYER" not multi AI.
Lets say your playling forces of light, and on the server waiting for a game are 2 other light players and one dark player. The server will then match up a 3v3 with the dark player getting two AI team mates. The dark player can't very well fight you all, and i don't panth supports 1v1.....ive never seen it anyway.
You just need to luck out and happen to be playing when there are plenty of players on both teams looking for a game.
Well that is an answer i guess. Why would they do that?? i would rather wait longer to play a game instead of AI on my team. Or make is so that match doesnt count....
What difficulty is the AI set at? Nightmare I'm guessing? Or is it based on rankings?
Normal. Nightmare and hard is just normal ai that cheats.
Skirmish and Pantheon should be combined, so that whoever is lookng for a good game plays people not ai.
It seems a necessity to have AI in pantheon, while you may prefer to wait it out for real players, other people would probably rather just play. Like when I have an hour or less to get a game in, I don't want to wait.
A better solution I've been thinking about would be to balance the matchups. So, rather than have 3 real players vs 1 plus 2 AI, have the matchmaking service balance it to be 1 real player on each side with 2 AI each. That prevents the obvious waiting around just to have the other team concede immediately, plus games balanced that way are still playable and can be fun.
if you are stuck with AI on your team, leave before 3 mins and it doesnt count against you on your record i believe.
This is correct.
I'm guessing that when a player drops, they are replaced by a Normal AI as well?
I'm hoping that when modding gets going, somebody can give us a decent modded AI. I know cranking up the cheat ratio would be the easy way out, but personally unfortunately they still cap out at level 20 and still aren't that hard. They seem to get all the good items and level cap early, but give up on upgrading their citadel or creeps, which ends up making it just a matter of time until they are eventually overpowered. They don't seem to be able to capitalise on their advantage very well.
