It seems like since the latest update, my troops are more prone to circle around the outside of the base to find targets than to enter it. This is even true for flying units like drags and balloons, so it's not just a side effect of walls. Anyone else observe this?
Yes my drags would not go for the TH not matter what.Quote:

When I think about it, I guess the AI goes for the closest target of the unit's chosen type. But it must be calculating the nearest from the unit's exact position rather than the position of the former target that was just destroyed. Since attackers usually start on the outside of the base, they position themselves at the outer edge of a target. Hence, the width of the target that was just destroyed effectively penalizes the decision of proceeding forward versus going to the outer edge of another target positioned "laterally" around the outside of the base. In my opinion, that heuristic should be tweaked.
Oh, I also notice a lot of units attacking walls pointlessly in this update.
I know Right!?
New update:
Archer Queen
Favorite Target: The most inconvenient walls.
This eagle eyed warrior yields a modified cross bow with which she targets walls and spins around bases like a ballerina.
I think they are trying to make the game harder, to separate out the committed players. We all have seen games do this before.. The problem is we didn't start playing this game to be learning new strategies over and over. Even if they make it better people mostly don't like change.. So I dunno how this will go
I don't have a problem. I also know how to attack though so maybe that's what is separating us.
No AI wasn't changed it's just that early on during the lifetime of the game players would have horrible base designs that people made them self with x intersections, now later on people are looking up base designs made by great people who know AI pathing and t intersections and compartments and staggering and regular people copy those bases.
so AI didn't change it's just that people know how to copy bases, and put those barracks and collectors out side there base right next to their outer layer of walls so your troops circle
my advise: learn to clear outside building and learn to use wb so your troops core
yea. the ai for a lot of troops and the heroes are f*cked up. they will break through a wall and then turn around to walk back outside. very ♥♥♥♥♥♥ed
My base has one compartment and 0 t intersections :) hehehe...Quote:
