No it wouldn't. Just because they are acting as human doesn't mean they have to be particularly skilled or incredibly trained. e.g. a Seal Team vs security guards is generally going to be a one way slaughter but they are all human. being indistinguishable from humans just means that their actions can be something that an equivalent human may perform, whether that is hide in a corner/run screaming, or yell for backup while seeking cover to keep you pinned down is all down to how skilled they are supposed to be at combat. For me better AI is about actions that you could imagine that an equivalent human would perform and then being able to ratchet up/down the skill and combat level accordingly.

Enlighten me.

Halo 4's enemies even on Legendary seemed pretty striaght foward for me.  (Other than enemy vechile auto aim)

@nanarchy;

WELL SAID. You hit the nail right on the head.

I agree with that. maybe even an AI that learns your play style and learns to counter you. the new ai in SC2 is getting really good. they actually have diferent build styles and end games now. but still a ways to go.

Enough to be my girlfriend.

Perhaps because the best chess ai is better than the best players in the world, haha.

But to make chess ai good is surely easier (even though it is still difficult I'm sure) than to make a moving character in a game good (considering chess is turn based).

As a nerd very, as someone who wants to play fun games not very at all...

A.I. will always be held back. It will never advance like graphics, physics etc.We would be playing these games longer.and spending less money on games . The industry doesn't want that.

as long as it is not cheap or troll I am happy.

So from a field of 12 you want 3 racers to quit or stop along the track before the end, another 4 trying to ram you from behind at every corner, 1 escaping way out front driving flawlessly, 2 making an effort like you and another one driving the course in reverse?

What I would like is to be able to reason with AI.
