Suprised there arent more posts about the AI players. Heres what happened last night.
Ive played online with a guy for 5 years on various platforms. last night we played our usual 9 hole matchplay and after 7 holes he was 2 up. He asked me if Id noticed anything about his game and explained hed simply played as a robot player. Id never even noticed which says a lot for how good the AI player was playing and a great addition from the Devs.
We then set an 9 hole alt shot game and 2 others joined. All square after 9 holes. My friend and I were talking on skype and we were both a bit suspicious as 1 of the othere took quite a while on a couple of chip shots but put it down to neurosis. Anyhow the other team won it on the 2nd extra hole then the game froze ( this happens a lot with AI players at the moment ) so we felt that 1 of the others must have been a Computer player lol.
So the moral here is how do you know whether or not your playing a robot. Perhaps a big C on his shirt or even a K tattood on his forehead as in Red Dwarf would be a way forward.
Interesting though and still an enjoyable alt shot game.
