Board Game Arena

Umm, I don't know if this is an update or not, but for some reason, it says you can play against the computer...

Someone please tell me if my computer is glitching out, or this is a real update!!!

Where did you see that? On the game creation screen or within an actually game when it sometimes says "Waiting for AI?"

If it's the latter, I think it has to do with the fact that certain games have fairly rudimentary AI built-in for games where a player abandons. For example, if an opponent abandons a game of quoridor, the "AI" will just move them forward one spot every turn, but with no additional strategy. In K2, an abandoned player will just pick random sets of three cards to play each turn. I don't know of any games with a more advanced AI.

Real update.
This is currently only for one game (Can't stop) and experimental.

Cheers!

I see the ELO ranking is turned off when you face the robot...
If this works well do you think you will do this for other games too?

had to try this.

sadly i won 4 of 4 games against the bot .. all 3.nil.

advice to the AI ... avoid spreading to a 3rd number as long as possible ... doubling down on previously rolled numbers in the round gives you more flexibility.

Hi,

As specified in the description of BGA robot player, the goal of this AI is just to give an opponent to beginners who want to learn how to play.

This is a very weak AI and we don't plan to make it stronger
