AI Non player positions initiating attack on Player Positions- new feature or bug?

EZ Dolittle · Nov 20th 2016, 5:39pm

In two games I have seen the AI countries initiate an attack on a player position. These are standard AI games.
Is this a new feature of the updates or something that is a bug or what are the situations that bring about such an attack:

Game 1,702,048 Venice has attacked Savoy
Game 1,689,870 The PAPAL States have attacked Venice ((and taken the capital))

Both are early in the game history and in the second case may have crippled the player.

Can it be the AI stopped being passive "beating boy"?

Intelligence comes with age.

Perhaps they grew up a bit?

New report from the battlefront.

Yesterday I took a province from an AI country.

Today that AI country moved troops overnight to retaliate and took back their province.
THEN that AI country launched attacks on 3 of my existing (long held) provinces.
I have organised defences, but it was unexpected.

The AI is much improved of recent. ....... Damn it (LOL)

Good morning guys,

Yes the AI can grow up and of course can destroy a country if only you attack to it, it is working with having intelligent like the players in map, some times can be Elite AI, too strong, so be sure guys that you have enough army to start a conquer to an AI country.

Oh - I thought Elite AI was still in testing.
If it is released to the wild.....I think I found one ... ha ha ha ha

Yes it is but i said some times, the testing will over some day

Ha ha ... another game, and this is one for the books.

Poland (AI) attacked me from his colony.
It was an unprovoked attack.
We have never fought before.

He placed a cavalry unit on his side of the border - so I did the same - then he attacked me.

First time I have ever seen that.

Hi Deaf_Eye_Ant, regarding your latest report of unprovoked AI attack: can you confirm that this is not a game with Elite-AI activated? (Note that Elite-AI is an optional game setting, not something that happens randomly to players.) If you had chosen normal AI, please report it as a bug and we can investigate. Thanks!

Here's how the AI should behave: Normal AI only initiates attacks on players if already at war with them. However, it will not declare war itself but only retaliate when the war was started by the other player. Elite AI not only retaliates when attacked, but may also declare war of its own accord. For this purpose, the Elite AI tracks the diplomatic and military activity of all players and starts war when a player's track record reaches a certain threshold in aggressiveness.)

My game was standard (as far i as I knew) - I cannot find Elite Ai option mentioned in the settings.
Just raised a ticket.
