When AI can effectively play Civilization, then tell me it's going to replace humans.
That's right. Currently the computer just cheats up while cheating the player down. Human head-to-head is dramatically different.
@danalan That's always how Civ has functioned. Instead of having the computer players make smarter choices, it just cheats, giving them multipliers to almost everything they do. Even combat feels tilted in their favour, despite the actual stats of the unit.
@danalan Freeciv has been able to do that for a while.
@danalan Highest difficulty, and win without cheating.
