Okay but you read this:
They do not have any option to do other things. They only know if they have more or less power for auto calc battle. They could improve the game by making the AI have more options and not depend on just checking power (this is also how they choose siege targets) but there's zero indication in 3 years that TW wants to move away from this simple AI. Their main concern has been trying to make the map not paint itself too fast while the player is farting around.
I don't have much anger about Mount and Blade but the profile will likely become more and more deformed and distorted until I think of something else I like.
Not really, I didn't notice such behaviour in the early access versions. They changed it because people complained they can't play siege defense because AI was being smart and leaving the siege to run away when they see larger enemy army approaching. It was annoying sometimes that's true. But as you can guess TW did the TW thing. Instead of coming up with an actual solution, they took the short cut and made the AI brain dead so they can only focus on sieges without any situational awareness. Now you can play siege defense as much as you want.
Long story short we had a problematic AI and it's replaced to another problematic AI.Better it had stopped with that. It´s sad to see big armies raid a village or worse chasing parties or looters.
Yeah it's all messed up. You can check out the new video I uploaded that shows how AI army remains indecisive, goes back and forth until gets destroyed.
Armies should ignore all forces that isent 50% of their number. Never raid and only focus on siege. And sieges should be focus on distance not strenght.
Hell no man! You're suggesting to replace it with another broken AI
When you have two bad choises one should take the lesser bad. The current is worse.
Small tweaks like that won't fix anything. They gotta remake army/party behaviours. This time with logical and a little bit of realistic approach.
Smal tweaks is posible for them to do. Big changes no. Havent you read. Game is soon finished.
Can´t be worse them seeing 3 larger armies chasing a looter party of 10 while the enemy takes 5 settlements from you.Haven't you seen what happens when they focus on siege only?
I don't know if there is anything need be said. These two videos will show you what kind of joke is the Bannerlord Campaign AI.

Here's another one. This might be even worse. AI army being chased by a similar strength army but gives no f*** and goes directly for a kamikaze siege.
One of the best examples of kamikaze siege. Exploit this and own the entire Calradia in no time.

Normally I wasn't gonna play Bannerlord until 1.2 becomes stable but since I get notifications from this topic I wanted to make some more tests. As soon as I started playing I encountered another Artificial Stupidity moment hahahahaha. Also guess what Mr. Marsh! This is a different save.
Another good examples of kamikaze attacks one after another
It never makes sense to ignore me because they should know I'm gonna return and destroy them once the settlement garrison inflict enough casualties to them.
How the hell they could miss an army as large as theirs right behind them? They shouldn't even start the siege while there is a huge danger so close. Please stop trying to justify their sloppy work. I'm not even expecting a military mastermind AI. All I'm asking for some decent simple god damn logic.
Smooth brain AI.
