Today, I saw a video on YouTube: Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Stupidity of AI Player. I wasn't sure where to post it for discussion, so I'll put it here. The gist: the author demonstrates how the AI acts foolishly in a specific situation. The player attacks a Rampart with a powerful hero-defender and a large army, having only a stack of cyclops with a cart and a few snakes. Then, he blocks the gate with snakes and shoots down the entire enemy army with cyclops, periodically healing and resurrecting them. Meanwhile, the enemy army, despite its strength, just stands there and gets destroyed. What I think about it: it's sad, but today, many strong players are looking for and finding these kinds of situations to achieve what seems impossible, simply because the AI is acting foolishly... I don't think there's any reason to be proud of this: if the developers were still supporting the game, they would have fixed these bugs. As it is, a new field is developing in "Heroes" studies - bug hunting...
Воскресайте, камінні душі, Розчиняйте серця і чоло, Щоб не сказали Про вас грядущі: їх на землі не було…
