War

[Wizzington]

IDK about you, but I definitely had fun today.

 

[Wizzington]

Enemy AI didnt win a single big pitched battle in space, enemy AI never managed to occupy a planet, enemy AI never was a challenge in that war, despite the fact, that it was a huge alliance.

I didn't think we had a second Stellaris stream but you obviously weren't watching the one I was playing in. Who's my rival streamer? Is it Mercedes?!?

 

[Wizzington]

Trying to warp the reality by pretending you didnt win easily while playing suboptimally and blaming the "hotcode" every time proves only one thing, Wiz: you would've made an extremely successfull political career, you are a master demagogue.

I burned 30000 minerals to get 3 planets. For perspective, that's about 80 colony ships I could've sent. You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about and stating your nonsense authoratively just makes it all the more ridiculous.

 

[Wizzington]

You used minerals to defeat your biggest rivals making them from USSR into post-soviet Russia. They will never be able to rise again, so you spent money for superwin.

Whew! See, here I was thinking they would use the ensuing truce to rebuild and seek new allies, but I'm glad I was wrong. Good thing you are here to teach us new players about the lack of bounceback in Stellaris with all your expertise in the game.

 

[Wizzington]

You are welcome

Bit of advice: If you're authoratively telling someone who both works on a game and has hundreds of hours of playtime in it how the game works based on what you saw in one stream, then there's no need to hire a plumber to find out where the foul smell is coming from. It's almost certainly coming from you being full of crap.

 

[Wizzington]

Which means you are way better as AI programmer than actually playing...

I would probably have taken the 2-planet peace deal if I was playing on my own, honestly. But the show must go on.

 

[Wizzington]

Yeah, OK, obvious troll is obvious. Infracting and moving on.

I felt like the middle empire had some trouble with meeting up with the top empire. If they had managed that wiz would have faced a 6k+ fleet that had, at least partly, the superior setup. This combined with less unrest for the middle empire and a quicker support from the bottom one might have won the war for the just league.

Yes, I noted this as a potential issue too (but there might have good reason for it, such as their fleets being out of position). We'll investigate it tomorrow.

 

[Wizzington]

Wiz mentioned that AI during war can have stances: defensive, offensive, raiding. But Can AI change their stance during war? After defeating Blorgian army on the south AI should abandon their defensive stance and commence counter attack but they just waited and did nothing.

They can change it, but it doesn't necessarily make sense to attack even if you beat one fleet. I was actually hoping they would so I could fight them by our military stations.
