    Literally NO ONE plays AI anymore.

    Was waiting for an AI match since I broke my gaming laptop, not gonna lower my kdr while playing at 48fps at lowest.
    Waited for like 30 mins, no match still even tho it says 'Medium Activity'.
    I really hope Ubi adds more loot to AI(or exclusive loot) so more ppl play AI.

    People don't play vs. AI, because the AI can actually fight and level two bots are better than apr. 60% of the players and level 3 bots with their quadruple faints are better than 90% of us.

    Why bother with them AND get far less in return?

    There are always people playing Ai.... never have to queue for more than a minute even when on low activity.

    Lots like to do contracts or level an alt vs Ai.

    On PC anyway.

    All bots are easy to kill. They are susceptible to parries... and gb's.... though neccesarily after a parry... GB's are your best bet for beating them

    It's sad but true.

    Only time I play against AI is if there is a stupid order like 8 kills in Skirmish, or if it's a Duel Order. I hardly ever play Duel against other players because it's full of sweaty try hards who use nothing but Warlord and Warden, and abuse every exploit in the game to win. Soft feints, GB feints, Zone flicker etc.

    I've been searching for a skirmish match versus A.I for an hour now. Matchmaking is absolutely pathetic. Game probably barely has any players left these days.

    PC and console versions are so different, that they need different forums.

    On console, it is in general far more difficult to parry light attacks, def-meta is outruled by light attack spam and counter guard breaking is far more difficult as well.

    Except, that the bots can perfectly party YOUR light attacks and their counter guard breaking abilities are legendary.

    I think this is a problem introduced with patch 1.06. I normally only play vs AI. Starting today it is taking a really long time to get into matches vs AI.

    Hm wrong. People play without matchmaking vs AI. reason? No afk farmers, non wait time. Bots are fast and reliable to play against.

    Exactly. I play against AI all the time because it's the most reliable and never disconnects.
