Staredit Network -> Games -> The Starcraft Bots

I was playing a bot because I can't seem to win any Online games, and I found them to be very, very easy. Two of them is too hard because they both rush and I can never get a defense up in time.

What I have found, is that if the Bot fails to rush you, it's screwed. Yet if the rush is moderately successgul, destroys some of your defenses, yadda, yadda, it seems to play much better.

I have also noticed that they are desperate to survive. For instance, while I was mopping up the computer's remains, he began building a CC inside one of my secondary bases. I laughed and attacked it with the nearby probes.

But in any case, they are fast rushers, but after that they suck. (They cheat and they still suck ROFL)

What are your opinions on the matter?

Yea they suck. Too easy to destroy one or even two computers in my case.

I wish they could adapt more easily to $$ maps. Then it would be hilarious laugh.gif (and scary)

Very rarely do I play "normal" StarCraft, even more so against computers, but the times I have it's been either too damn easy or ridiculously hard.

More often than not (in my experience),

Zerg = Difficult

Protoss = Easy

Terran = Moderate

there is a glitch too. lol delete all the trig's in ur map b4 you do ne thing else and it'll make the comp's not attack 98% of the time. but it has to be a zerg comp

Yeah, I think they changed the AI to make it very smart or...
gave it extra resources.

[center]The AI is pretty easily owned on money maps, but on LT and such it's a little harder.[/center]

Bah, if you want a challenge, play against six computers at the same time (all against you). If you can win that, then you're ok. tongue.gif

If it is one of those Fastest Possible maps then they really suck because they only send like 3 or 4 Drones, SCV's or Probes into the stacked mineral field. We send a $#it load and pWn them easily.

But if its a map like LT then you would have to have some experience playing SC to beat them. They aren't that hard but can be harder on certain occasions.

C'est impossible.

I find comps alone too easy, and I can handle comps in a 2v6 situation,n provided my ally was as good as me.. But 6v1? I'd be owned tongue.gif.

I used to do that when SC first came out.

I would play on the modem for 2-4 hours straight with my cousin, going back and forth at eachother.

Oh I miss the first days of SC sad.gif

Insane AI is nuts. They research all abilities/upgrades, develop all units and structures, and tend to use devastating combinations of units, like battlecruisers and valkyries. Plus they're bloody relentless.
