Out of curiosity, has the AI difficulty changed in FAF?

So having not played SupCom in a couple of years, I came upon FAF in some YT videos, and decided to load it up. I wanted to try to forgo my usual turtly goodness and try to play aggressively like the pros. I also wanted to get the hang of any changes, so decided to drop the AI difficulty right down to easy to be able to toy with the enemy at my leisure. I used to win consistently on normal and most of the time on hard, so at least sort of decent-ish. Long story short, easy AI absolutely demolished me. It wasn't even close. I tried again and would have been obliterated again if i didn't start to turtle, and have his huge army just stop outside my base until I built up.

So I was just wondering, has the AI been given a huge boost, or am I just that comically awful at playing with even a hint of aggression?

FAF has integrated Sorian AI that is much harder to beat than original FA AI, so short answer would be yes.

Ah, that's a relief. Not quite as embarrassing then.

only if you are choosing sorian as your opponent. just choose the normal easy ai instead and it will go back to the old way.

but playing sorian rush ai is a good way to advance in the early days

if you played "easy AI" then the answer is no the AI hasn't changed at all that is just an impression.

i dont know if AI uses attack move but if so then due to bugfixes it would no longer suicide mml/arty into pd, which would also make a big different even to easy ai
