Recently I played some games against the barbarian A.I on "hard" difficulty and it seems that it villagers creation time is faster than mine, is it just a feeling?
Anyway this A.I is quiet challenging : laming boar, blocking vills trying to bring back the pig...
Barbarian isnt cheating (except on hardest where it receives extra ressources, but it informs you about that at the start of the game) so your vill creation times should be the same. Unless the AI is playing as persians, their tcs work a bit faster starting in feudal age.
Yes, Barbarian is quite a challenge. Its programmed by one of the top players and even experts struggle against hardest barbarian if they are outnumbered. I remember several handicap games of tyrant/secret against this AI, and they lost most of the games.
there are AI that do use a cheat to know the enemy location, even at lower difficulty. I dont know how barbarian does this.
Some AIs only get acces to this information once they scout the first objects of its opponent.
