To those who find the AI weak in 2.2

[dezuman]

The answer is Glavius' AI mod.

Seriously though. It might not be perfect, but for the first time ever in Stellaris I'm honestly scared of the AI. It's 2330 and a Devouring Swarm that's close to me has 230k fleet power. It's currently eating a federation that had over 100k, and I think the other fed with 150k is next in line. Me? I *had* 70k, but the Khan spawned right next to my core territory. This will be a tough one.

Oh, I'm also only playing commodore difficulty.

5/5 strongly recommended for people with no survival instinct.

Haha same here.

I am playing on commodore difficulty as well and there is a devouring swarm to the north of me that I am legit worried about. Hes eaten up a good amount of territory. The guy right next to me is a pushover but he has a democratic buddy next to him who has a larger fleet then me as well.

If that devouring swarm decides to attack me it will be interesting, glavius has started working on the naval combat stuff. I might see it in action soon!

The AI is indeed less dumb about its fleets with Glavius' workarounds. The fleet AI is hardcoded though, so for that to work really well we have to wait for Paradox.

Yeah, it is about time Paradox reaches out and hires Glavius.
