The New CHallenges

[Deman]

So the AI has basically had a OMFG buff and is actually fairly hard to beat on some games. So lets see if we can try a few of the original challenges and see how fast people can do them.

AIX = Cheating AI, aka hard as nails.

Off memory they are:

Build and Fire a nuke on Isis Sandbox mode: <Fastest Time> <Replay>

Win 5 Teamed Random AI vs you on Open Palms: <Fastest Time> <Replay>
Win 5 Teamed Random AIX vs you on Open Palms: <Fastest Time> <Replay>

Win 1v1 vs Cheating AI on Syrtis Major: <Time> <Replay>
Win 1v1 vs Cheating AI on Haven Reef: <Time> <Replay>

Win Free For All vs 5 Random AI Unteamed on Roanoke Abyss: <Time> <Replay>
Win Free For All vs 5 Random AIX Unteamed on Roanoke Abyss: <Time> <Replay>

wow they really have added some new variables to the AI that looks actually fun.

lets have a go i would say

[vaineh]

just reinstalled supcom so resurrecting this thread.

havnt got FA expansion just vanilla supcom and just doing some comp stomps with a couple of mates. taking on superior numbers etc but they're still not much of a challenge. as long as you take them quickly before they start pumping out experimentals.

whats all this about improved ai?

[siteslammer]

The AI in forged Alliance has been updated a fair bit as its a real pain in the arse to beat a cheating AI

[Deman]

Well they still didn't quite get the AI right, as it gets to a certain stage of spamming then clogs itself up and stops.

btw new FA patch being released written by our own Gowerly. \o/

Lots of ridiculous bug fixes, I may even have to start playing again!

btw, if you remotely enjoyed SupCom you absolutly must get FA as it improved the game a lot in my opinion. Vanilla supcom = spam out massfabs to win.

What's the ETA on Gowerly's patch, or has he just started writing it ?

[Deman]

He wrote it a while back, its just a case of GPG saying, here is the patch.
