I would love to see beating the hardest AI which plays S tier division when you play D tier division (like Panzerverband Strachwitz or 19th tanks)
I will probably just get run over haha
Sorry, but have to disagree about the AI style not changing between difficulties. For example, medium AI seems way more focused on using armored vehicles (whenever they are appropriate choice or not) at the expense of infantry than hard AI.
Probably hard ai gets way more points so it spams both
@@tedarcher9120I believe that starts happening at very hard.
They have varied levels of agression. Eugen says thats the difference. Hardest ai has +100% points allocated to attacking
On the wiki certain difficulties run different scripts as well but not sure what changes besides all the bonuses they get
I find Medium AI doesn't attack very much or in large numbers.
The AI in this game improved quite a lot since when the game first got released. Me and my friend only play AI games against veryhard and hardest (got like 1500 Hours only AI games). And we enjoy it a lot. Its super different then PvP, like how you play and build your deck. Like i tryed some PvP games and im totaly garbage at it, since its so different then how i play against AI. Anyways the AI is quite smart, it even uses smoke play to smoke off spots. Or it builds up a group of units to push with. Ye the AI gets more points and double the units depending on diffeculty, and yes it spams quite a lot becouse of it. But it isnt as dumb as you think it is. Can use some really intresting plays. To be real honest the AI even learned me some really good wel placed spots for tanks/AT gun on sertain map that i had no clue would be a good spot to place these units. The AI also knows where the priority units are and where your units are strongest/weakest on the front line. Ye maby it cheats a little, but thats part of the challange too. In the end i personally enjoy AI games a lot in SD2, and thats the most important part!
Have you also played 1vs1 against AI and if so how did you beat it ?
@@geraldleuven169 Yes i have in 1v1. Id say most important is to have AT planes in A phase, pref clusters. Get enough infantry card in A phase as well, decent quality for quite cheap price. Also important to have 2k AT or HE. Or at least 1750M AT. AI likes to do a tank rush in de ployment, so long range AT and AT/cluster plane will be super usefull. If AI deck has cluster planes always make sure to get AA out in deployment. AI loves AT cluster rush. For your infantry its good to have lots of them in A, becouse they will die, they need to be a meat shield. So having cheap infantry is good. However they also need to be of some quality, they need to be able to kill as well. Becouse as i mentioned AI is quite spammy. Or use mix of cheap and good quality infantry. Maby these kind of stuff also works in PvP but i cant speak much for PvP since rarely play it. But with AI its important to survive the first deployment push. Then build layer of defense, since the AI can randomly come with a super strong attack out of no where.
Forgot to add, disclaimer. I do always play with a 40min timer. I like this more becouse thats how im used to it from SD44, there i used to play pvp a lot.
@@foxmarco4639 Thanks so much for the detailed explanation. Will try your advice in future games. Usually I try out my micro and deck against self made decks in hard. When I watch the replays I see enough stuff that can be improved. For the time being I prefer ai games which you can start immediately.
@@geraldleuven169 No problem! As far as i know not a lot of AI players out there, and always feel like no one really cares about AI games. So im glad to give some advice! Wouldnt mind playing a AI one if youd like haha.
For me id love to do PvP again, but its so different from AI that im absolutly horrible in PvP... Sad me.
Wow, is that for me? I literally just asked you to go against the hardest AI a couple of days ago and here you are.
I liked your idea :D
Beating the AI is fairly easy if you know how it plays.
It struggles against heavy armour, as it is to dumb to flank it etc, but instead just spasms armour at it. One Panther can kill about 1 bajiliion Shermans from the front at range.
It drives tanks into AT ambushes all the time.
It generally struggles against airpower.
It is really good at infantry spam waves and arty.
I usually use the AI as a way to test my deck builds. It is a good way to check I have balanced my phases and capabilities correctly.
feels like the AI would be a great opponent for ww1 rather than ww2 settings based off its love of infantry and artillery lol
@@dominuslogik484 it loves tanks. It just doesn't know how to use them...
But it does command like general Melchett from Blackadder.
This is a great round up of the common AI moves haha
@@atkpwrgaming genuinely I would watch a stream where you are playing campaign general against the hardest AI to see how you manage to fight the spam armies that can bring crazy amounts of everything.
Now try hardest defending on breakthrough. It’s almost impossible with the extra extra income they get. A phase is pretty simple but once B phase hits and they build up concentrations of infantry and tanks it’s very hard to slow it down
That doesn’t sound particularly fun haha
I thought I knew how to play the game, but then I see others play and I'm like.. yeah, I'll stick to playing against AI. Super interesting watching your tactics, thanks for your content!
thank you for watching!
I play against, with in co-op. I can confirm the AI does not have god vision. IT needs to look for your stuff like a player.
I seen the ai fall into ambush many times. The ai doesnt spam you mindlesly like most games. I think its a very decent ai actually. Probably the best Ive seen in a strategy game. Very enjoyable to play with or against.
Yeah for a game of this complexity the AI is quite good, it can just a little spammy
@@atkpwrgaming
It does feel good, to have that many enemies to shoot at.
I do want to point out, if it hasn't been said already, there is one crucial way Hardest AI is different: you can't actually crit the vehicles. You'll notice on this playthrough, you'll get Driver Killed on one of the tanks, as soon as you pan back to that tank, its already on the move. I've personally noticed that the AI will clear vehicle criticals within 2-3 seconds upon receiving. Definitely makes for more relentless tank rushes
Interesting, I never noticed that before!
I did it once too, on Tannenberg with me as 20. Panzer and the ai as 84. Strelkov. and I must say NEVER AGAIN 😂.
I cant say this will be a regular thing haha
Ohhhh AtkPwr how I whised you were playing with Rosselsprung when I saw the title of the video :)
No no no. Thats alright. I would hate that haha
Enjoyed the video, thanks! What map is this, looks really good?
Orsha East is the map thanks for watching!
Would love to see you play the Karelia campaign as the Fins on the hardest difficulty :D
Just establish air superiority and fight battle after battle after battle against wave after wave after wave of infantry.
Honestly the worst part about the campaigns is how grindy and repetative they get.
My issue with the single player campaigns is the repetition. Its not like the AI really mixes it up haha
The Rosiori around the 20 min mark didn't miss, KV85s are heavy tanks with 12HP and the grenade only does 10 dam.
You are correct, totally forgot about that
I suspect the AI also does trajectories. Because I see the AI in hard bombing and attacking areas I'm not in, nor have been near. The only reason for that must be because it thought I was going there.
Edit: and I agree, it's not that it's difficult, it's that it's hard.
it appears they do, which is cool
I actually "train" for PvP battles using hard - hardest AI
Great idea!
Btw attack power the at grenade at 19:57 didn’t miss the kv 85 just takes two grenades to kill
I know this because 26th is my favorite Soviet div
Good to know, totally forgot about its heavy tankness
👍Hello, I'm Brazilian, I really like your videos
Thanks so much for watching!
I do not believe the AI remembers every unit revealed forever. I believe it 'forgets' after some time unless the unit is re-revealed.
very hard and hardest have a "never forget" modifier for units it has spotted. As in even if the AI loses LoS it will remember the unit being there.
Yeah it doesnt track them but it does remember the spot forever on higher difficulties
Wow! I got always trashed... really badly😅
I would hope my many hours would mean something at this point haha
I swear there is more AA when I play against easy.
It’s very possible haha
I have noticed that AI units are secretly buffed on very hard and hardest
They are buffed in availability, not in actual combat ability
@@atkpwrgaming That is a common claim that I have heard elsewhere (from the wiki I believe) but is simply not true. I have hundreds of hours playing co-op against hard, very hard, and hardest, and there is a very clear difference in how the AI’s individual units perform, especially when you switch factions. AI T-34/85s have no problem massacring Tigers and Panthers at 2km while all you get is a bounce. When I switch sides, the AI’s cats perform as they historic should
I can beat hard most of the time but not very hard. I’m still scared to play vs humans 😂. Mainly because of set up time, I’m trying to cut down prep time at start
Oh just hit the start button right away at the start and then click it so it goes off. that gives you a definite three minutes at least
i find it funny how the HS-129 B-2/R-4 has a SD2 cluster bomb on it....
What do you mean?
playing SD2 and using the SD2 bomb, isnt it just satisfying @@atkpwrgaming
ill re work this joke
Oh I get it now haha
i wont be opening with that one tonight.....@@atkpwrgaming
Wrong Atkpwer. HARD is the same AI model with the same resources as you have. MEDIUM is a softned AI that is less aggressive.
Oops, sorry!
The only thing good about AI their counter battery is way too good, many times in army general i had to lure the opponent AI artillery divisions into combat and weaken them. While the rest were really predictable and can be prepared to counter them.
Oh the artillery spam is absolutely oppressive.
I find Medium AI will stop pushing to retake territory - it doesn't seem to try to retake flags if you push it back
Interesting. Not a very interesting game then against them
yeah I have only really played AI, need to take the plunge and join a match sometime but I'll probably just get run over by a human@@atkpwrgaming
According to Normandy difficulty, on medium, the AI allocates 50% less of its points to attacking. Hard is basically "normal", where the AI plays by exactly the same rules as you, and has no bonuses or penalties.
The AI.............
Yeah it was a trip haha
Oof, the AI is going to spam you hard. I predict a loss, unless you can grab some crucial positions & exploit it's uncaution.
I beat AI very hard around 60-70% of the time. I think my win rate vs hardest would be closer to 20%!
Prove me wrong :)
I was pretty happy with myself on this one haha
I can't beat HARD so you have my respect
i feel lik hard is easier than medium at first its a stalemate on hard but than i overrun the ai because all units died in its first pushes
@@AINiMeX Medium used to be the Easy, they changed it a while ago. Parity in points and avail is the Hard setting.
Thank you!
I think the memory the AI has depends on the difficulty. It only never forgets on hardest AI (I think).
I think you are correct, I was just thinking about my present situation haha
@@atkpwrgaming Always focus on what is ahead of you :)
ai is EZ
Well if you can hold off the spam correct
