lots of people either think that crazy ai is too difficult or is a pushover so what if there was a new difficulty setting above crazy for the buffed bots

Personally, I don't think the bots are all that buffed. I 1v1ed one of the "crazy" bots to test out the update, after I got to it sometime around turn 20, it still had not left its island despite having ports and despite being oumaji and starting with riders, had not even gotten 2 of the villages adjacent to its capital on its island with only 3 villages.

I remembered the OpenAi of DOTA 2, they wrecked the world champion team. Its nice to see one in the rising esport of Battle of Polytopia.

Make a bot that starts with something insane like 20spt from its capital

#

Maybe even make a slider to customize how much the capital makes

They have extra spt but I don’t think it’s that high

It's better to buff the actual ai

I think that’s what a lot of updates have tried to do, and they’re still bad

i wonder what they were smoking that they decided to make the bots use only the naval part of the tech tree and literally nothing else

#

you can go to like t15 against bots and all theyll have built is ports and aqua farms

First comment on this sub, but in regards to the AI: I think something harder than crazy would be great. On the newest beta update - they’re a bit harder than the default game, but not what I was expecting in turns of “crazy.”

Another game I play AOE2 adapted some harder bots in the style of some of their pro scene. I know two completely different games, but maybe a way to start to adapt. Like a comment previously said though, Polytopia isn’t necessarily an eSport so who to choose from. Hope this helps

I've noticed that computers don't really know how to use or when to build bridges

Maybe you could have the "hardcore" level that gives all ai nations the level 1 starting techs and you none
