I miss Brads AI Testing Reports

It was so much fun in GalCiv2 development times to look into Brads games vs. AI and his comments what's to improve.

 

It made me happy following a game designer who cares about stupidness of AI and always tries to make it better.

 

Didn't see something equal for Elemental. :(

Yeah, those entries would be nice to read.

The only one I remember was the one where he introduced a map where he intended to test the AIs. Unfortunately, it looks like he never got the time to use the map, or at least produce good results with it. I'm judging this from the map having islands and AI handling islands rather poorly. That should have been evident with the test map.

If you want you can follow my commentary as I develop AI... it may not be Elemental but I promise to have regular updates  :cylon:

Yesterday I saw a post at joeuser saying something about "first day of sabbatical"

but I assume that doesn't mean we don't get any journals about the AI, right? :frogboy:

If he works on it rather than posting you won't hear me complain.

Perhaps he will closer to when 1.1 is ready.

but who knows.

I read yesterday in his blog (wow, I use Impulse for that too XD ) that he has been in sabbatical and trying to work on Gal Civ II (TotA).

I miss them too but none in the horizon anytime soon... fortunately for Gal Civ II.
