AI in Pantheon

GG from the start

from Demigod Forums

Similar problem to what others have posted except 3v3, I'm the only non AI person on my team(why not 2ppl vs 2ppl, one ai per team?).  AI should not be allowed in pantheon.  They suicide on towers constantly! If I see a game with AI and only one person on that team I KNOW it's GG from the start. Played on and against that, you CANNOT WIN with AI on your team! If you've ever played DOTA you know what a Feeder is. AI ARE FEEDERS.

I think player drop is the only time ai is even in. When a game starts with them, it's because you couldn't connect to those players in the first place(they still have the usernames of those players).

this is not true the game starts with ai's quite a bit if a players name comes up and its blank under the connection info meaning it doesnt need to connect to anyone that person is an AI

I believe the matchmaking searches for a game for a period and if it can't find you one it goes "Well, don't wanna keep em waiting. Toss some AI in there and let em play". Of course this makes for terrible experiences. I played a game today with 2 light players and a light AI but it was just me and 2 dark AI on my team. They fed the Regulus on the enemy team up so much that he was level 10 by the time I was level 5. At that point I gave up and quit.

As has already been stated, AI should only replace players if they drop, not from the get-go. And AI should be set to Nightmare or have their death bonusses reduced so that enemy players aren't rewarded for farming them.

Agreed.  AI in general are plain stupid.  The idea is great but their intelligence is pretty bad, probably set to 'Normal' difficulty which means you can walk away for 30 mins in a skirmish and they haven't taken out even one of your towers.  They walk into range of 3+ enemy towers and melee until they are dead.  WTH... 

 

Had a teammate drop in 2v2 and ai got farmed so hard, he had 15+ deaths and no kills (of course).  He can't push or defend and the other team ends up with easily 8k gold more than me, not even counting how much time he spent reviving. 

Another winning streak down the drain thx to AI...
