Catan console edition reddit12/2/2023 Trade does not have an offer resource for any option. Pretty graphics were deemed more important than gameplay. Which maybe defines a better AI.Former top 10 Xbox360 player of the Big Huge Games Catan implementation here. But even in local games I didn’t feel I was against all the elements and had to essentially play like it was a survival horror game. So maybe the player leaving AI is not programmed to win. The other VP leader was gonna win next turn so me and the other guy gave all our cards to the AI for one resource in a last ditch effort from blocking his win and he didn’t. Granted the way he got the 27 cards was kind of shady and I think is against the rules in real catan but totally exploitable here (which is scary if they do add a competitive scene to this). Bought two development cards and did not drop a single settlement or city for the win. They needed two roads in one direction but proceeded to use all the cards to build roads that didn’t add to longest road. But when I saw the AI drain all 27 cards and not get a single VP in that mess I was dumbfounded. Just found them easier and less brutal in this one which in a way could be a good thing. ![]() They also got what ever rolls they wanted so it wasn’t really a good AI by any means just a broken and cheap AI. ![]() Had to become ruthless and figure out how to play against all odds. Idk, just found them easier then previous installments where they would all work together against you, never trade you, and always know what cards you had. (He wasn’t out of settlements roads or cities, longest road was in his grasp by 2 road build as well) Had a bot join the game and couldn’t figure out how to score his final VP with 27 cards in his hand which is pretty much impossible. Granted I have only played online cause the AI is fairly weak IMO. I had it happen to me for road placements which doesn’t make sense. People say it’s cause they do not have the right setting but that is voided out cause even if you have the right setting some players games ignore that and will randomly place their settlement/road for them. Unlike in real catan where the resources are random and the numbers remain consistent and distributed, but you have to play this way to get the option to MAYBE place your own settlement. You got the “set me up so I can lose easier” button or the “randomize everything so we can play almost normal button”. Super low on customization of games as well. I have played every version of catan they repackage us and this is by far the worst one. ![]() Honestly… out of every game I played I noticed something funky. Like where are the end game stats? I wanted to see how many 9s were rolled and how not a single 8 or 6 was. Haven’t had a game yet where similar numbers weren’t touching, a fine way to play but lacking settings to actually pursue a real catan experience. The game I think struggles with the settings and reads whatever it feels like.Īlso another issue with variable setup is number placements are random (unlike real competitive catan, where the hexes are random and the number disruption remains consistent.), which is odd cause the game has presets for former championship boards. Also more then 4 players joining a lobby is just a constant causing the game to not start till they leave, at least I think cause I usually had to wait till they left to hit start. Also had a game where I couldn’t do anything but accept or reject trades. You have to select variable setup but literally my first game (which had this on) I placed my settlement and my road was randomly placed.
