On high difficulty? That's strange. Usually, the computer takes all the resources (even when they aren't needed) and the castle falls quickly.
Guys, does anyone remember what the best ability for Humans is? I rarely play as them.

The castle falls, that's true, but it's not clear how they get the money. Many times I've come to their "hero," and they don't even have wood or ore mines captured, just guards standing around.

I think that in Heroes 5, the tactical AI is better, while in Heroes 3, the strategic AI is better.
P.S.

The "Watch" feature is nonsense! I played online with it enabled, and it only worked once in all the matches! If it worked on every match, it would be much better!

I'm curious, what makes you say it's dumb? I provided arguments for its superiority, and I believe it's quite modern.

Ai is definitely clueless. Instead of defending his last castle and buying troops, he buys three heroes and starts running them around the map, even though there are monsters in the castle. And that's not even his worst mistake.

That’s how it was programmed; there’s nothing you can do about it. Most likely, it operates according to a template.

Most likely, it works according to a template.

This was the case everywhere, including in Heroes of Might and Magic III. The main thing is that this "template" is well thought out.

The AI cannot operate outside of predefined patterns. This is its weakness. In Heroes of Might and Magic V, this AI often exhibits logic that is incomprehensible to me. With a stronger army, it will just sit there and not attack, even failing to seize mines!

And in general, on hero difficulty, it's really tough to win.

I don't know. Yes, there are some silly things, but what really annoys me is that at one point, the computer just runs from its corner of the map to my castle without stopping or collecting resources, artifacts, or mining. It only attacks the monsters that get in its way. And I'm wondering what made it decide to do that. It didn't even see my castle, but it just keeps coming and coming... it's really annoying. Even with the cheapest hero, it still does it: confused:

As far as I know, the game's AI isn't bad... the computer doesn't really make stupid moves... I haven't noticed any major errors. Mostly, I've noticed that it struggles due to incorrect troop positioning during battles, but otherwise, it's almost a 5 out of 5!

AI flaws:
1) Poor spell usage (prioritizes resurrecting dead units... meaning the AI would rather resurrect 10 dead skeletons than 5 liches).
2) Unit positioning (groups all units together).
3) Stupidity (prioritizes chasing a weak unit over capturing a town).
4) Any battle involving the AI can be played twice as well as if a real player were involved.

Yeah, AI didn't impress me. It's easier for it to kill weak units than strong ones. The unit placement is just awful. You can't just set the battle to auto-mode because you might end up losing completely if the hero doesn't attack strong enemies. But still, it's better than in other parts. Overall, it's just dumb, and it seems like it's cheating. What can I say?

The AI's stupidity lies in the fact that 1) it attacks neutral monsters but doesn't touch what they are guarding, 2) it never retreats in battle if it's losing, even with the strongest heroes. Finishing it off after that, even if it has a strong army, will not be difficult. A level 1 hero cannot stand against a level 20 hero, no matter how strong his army is.

I disagree with the second point! In battle, the AI attacks archers and mages, deals as much damage as possible, and then retreats! That's what happened to me! And not just once!
