But the AI also blows its turn often, trying a stupid move.Ĥ: Dice average out, over a long interval. This triggers our suspicion that something is wrong, because a human wouldn't have tried it. But when we blow a 2+ catch, we cry foul because it "should have worked"ģ: The AI is dumb and will try crazy things. We don't flinch when a 3+ roll works, because we expect it to. Turned up heads 10 in a row? It's common to assume that "Im on a streak" or "it's got to be tails this time" (game shows and casinos basically rely on that feeling), but the next coin flip is still exactly 50/50.Ģ: We remember the crazy situations and forget the normal. Unlikely, but that doesn't mean it can't happen)įrom another post, I made on the exact topic.ġ: We expect patterns. (and the chance of rolling doubles 4 times in a row, is 1 in 1296 FYI. The match I just played earlier saw plenty of amazons failing their dodge rolls throughout the match. I've actually had a few games where the computer had only 5 players left uninjured at the end because the computer places their players in such bad positions.
They can't use certain skills like Leap, they use Minotaurs as running backs, they don't prioritize their actions properly, they don't make good use of their rerolls, they "Go For It" much much more than a human player should, they cage up as teams that really shouldn't be relying on caging tactics, and they don't seem to have a very good grasp of calculating odds of rolling dice for multiple actions at once (like attempting to dodge past an entire team).īecause of all that, it really isn't all that uncommon for me to kill or injure enough players on the enemy team that they can barely cover the line of scrimage after a kickoff. The computer plays by the exact same rules you do once you are ingame. There really isn't a difference in dice rolls. Other than having higher level players right from the start, the computer can replace level 3-4 characters with other level 3-4 characters between games. The computer actually doesn't cheat ingame, but it does cheat in between games.
