Trading with AI totally screwed...

from Stardock Forums
I enjoy trading with the AI for cash for my own empire etc...

But I just tried to do some trading some cash for some ships since I was hurting for cash. The Bloody AI wouldn't even pay 1bc for my HERO and it had 5 defence and 4 attack!

Ugg, I hope they fix that and make the game fun again... Or I guess I'll be on v1.2 for good...

Trading techs is weird. They always refuse my fair trades, and then come back with something like:

"I'll give you Dreadnaught Technology for Sensors."

If you have Dreadnaught Technology, you could likely research Sensors in a single turn...

I did get the above offer in one of my previous games. I of course glady accepted.

Its because of all the cheese going on with the trading in earlier versions. The AI has to be harsh in its trading with Humans, because otherwise humans just find some way to exploit it.

I find it does make it extremely difficult to keep up with the tach race in the early game though.

It's "smart" enough to avoid being taken advantage of by me, but not "smart" enough to offer itself up for being taken advantage of?

It's so weird, because I offered all my techs for Dreadnaught technology and he would refuse, then he would turn around and ask for just Sensors.

More proof my cats are aliens: I don't care if I want it, if it's your idea, it's bad, if it's my idea, it's good.
