I've been playing Command and Conquer since it was originally released back in 1999. I just installed this mod about a week ago, and must say its amazing. However, I have a huge problem with it. After playing this game 9 years you would think i would be able to beat the AI in a skirmish on any setting, just like I could in the regular C&C. I must say, it actually pisses me off how hard it is to play. I think that the AI is absolutely unfairly programmed, I've skirmished the computer over 20 times now, on different settings and still have yet to even build half the buildings listed available for build. Further, I've had to save games when I've made what I thought was decent progress, (because of how hard the game was), and even those crash on reload. I am fed up with this mod so far, lol, and have been in fits of rage. Yet I still am drawn back to it. Is there someway to tone down the AI for this mod? (Once again I have played the game on the 0 setting and the 2 setting). Someone help me, it's ridiculous!

Well, it depends on your playing style. I play on 1 usually to warm up, and I beat them with ease.

then again, my APM is batshit insane high.

the TS AI is really dead easy, except that its always hitting with superweapons since they charge uber fast

well
tbh

I think your effectiveness is really based on your APM (actions per minute)..

I know that I had a friend clock mine over the course of a few games, and My average was something like 150..

His was much slower. He also was defeated 20 minutes in by a level 2 AI dizzy rush.

Once again I've played the game several more times and still cant get anywhere. Tell me how to dumb down the AI as its absolutely retarded hard. I play with CABAL and have yet to build even a CABAL Commando. Just plz someone tell me how to dumb it down. Also, can you guys fix the issue in which save games crash the whole game and I get a "Tiberian Sun has encountered an error."

Try to fight agains multiple Hard TS AI's first, before trying the AI of this mod. Or set it to low if you haven't tried that yet. Most mods have the AI improved, so you must get used to it #Tongue
Also Anthony, I suggest playing some TW/KW; I think you can beat brutal AI with ease with such APM. I think mine is about 100 or so...

What gives. I even tried playing with multiple enemies. This mod for the game has become not even remotely fun anymore and it sucks. I wish someone could show me how to dumb down the AI. It's wayyyyy to aggressive for my liking. And someone has yet to post about the save games crashing upon reload. Hell, thats the only chance I have at winning. Save where I;ve made good progress and then when I die think about what to do different and reload. Total score to date with this mod: 0-32. Keep in mind I've been playing for 9 years. I beg for someone to tell me how to dumb the AI down, before I uninstall it; hell it's already on 0!

I think the amount of clicks you make per minute (a click equals an action IIRC #Tongue)

And at TPAM: I've tried this mod before, and the AI ain't that hard. And if you have played TS for 9 years and you can't win, then there's something wrong with your tactics. Sorry to say that Confused And about the savegame problem: that's something the mod creator should fix...

Yeah, I'll have to fix the save game bug now that it's mentioned. ;p

If you really must, you can delete the AI.ini file in your sun folder, and it will disable all the changes made to the original AI. Keep in mind it will also make the mod incompatible with other players if you ever wanted to play multiplayer. Of course the other choice is to keep practicing. #Tongue

I think he meant Tiberian Sun, not Tiberian Dawn.
