Great work on the A.I. so far, and many thanks!


Constructive criticism:
1.  As others before have said, I noticed that Zerg will keep all the queens in the main.
2.  Also, the A.I. tends to mass its army at the top of the ramp of its main, even after expansions are out. Perhaps you could find a way to get the A.I. to move its army out to the choke of its natural to defend better?
3.  Another thing I noticed was that the A.I. doesn't handle TvT very well. It tends to mass maras and rines, then go for vikings. I've never seen A.I. Terran tech for tanks, hellions, or banshees (in my experience). 
4. In ZvZ match-ups the A.I. is particularly weak to early pushes. I'm not talking LOL 6POOL RUSH KEKEKEKE, I mean anything that rushes faster than a 12pool tends to beat it. After the A.I. builds its first decent group of lings, it won't usually replace them if I kill them off. The A.I. makes like 4 more, then starts teching hardcore, without putting any defenses in.
5. I have yet to have my mineral lines harassed (not that I'm complaining lol).


I was surprised, however, to see Zerg A.I. build a lot of high-tech units late-game. I got jumped by lots of Ultras+Corruptors, and nearly lost. Kudos on that.


tl;dr A.I. has trouble countering and defending properly, and it techs at inappropriate times, but it's a solid A.I., and I look forward to future updates.

Really? Dang. Mine aren't there. I guess I need to do a clean install of the game. I'm still using all the original replay cracks and whatnot from before sandbox mode was released. Thanks for telling me though :)

First of all, thanks for all the work you guys have done. We all really appreciate it. I'm really looking forward to version 6.0, especially if the AI starts defending its expansions lol.
Also, will there be a way (eventually) to save replays of the matches against the AI? I really suck against the AI, because the early game push is very hard (for me) to defend, and I'd like to see what the AI is doing to get so many units so early in the game. Seriously, if I'm playing ZvP and I 6pool, by the time my first lings get to his main the computer has like 3 zealots waiting for me. If I don't go 9pool every game I get overrun so quickly ;_;
