Looks like the AIs have it.



For me, it is much more interesting to see how well a computer AI can simulate human-like intelligence in a game. And I just don't have the time for MP

Cheers.

My vote went with AI
What I would really like is for Firaxis to update the AI in 4 months or so once all the AI's 'losing strategies' have been nailed down.

I like Blake's answer.
That would be much easier than having to pay the play-testers.

I voted AI, because computer games are something I do when I'm feeling antisocial.

AI is my choice. Why? Many new games tend
to have crappy AI or they have been lent
from an another game. A vote for better AI's!

MP wasn't in the top 3, if I recall.
Thats an understatement. MP wasnt even among the alternatives.

Regardless above I think its sad that this have turned into an AI vs MP debate - either one or the other. But it is really mostly the MP-fanatic crowd here that have choosen to angle it this way.
