The unit pathfinding in Command and Conquer Generals was, in my opinion, absolutely horrible. I think it really damage mutliplayer games, especially when dealing with a large number of units. multiple tanks in crowded areas for example demonstrated the intellgence of a bunch of monkeys at the wheel :tdown:

Anyone have any insight into an interview or any other info pertaining to the unit pathfinding in Act of War?

im read in a gamemagazine that the KI is not so good. But that is not final yet.

I hope also that that become better.

I liked the IGN videos on your sites thanks for that. I like how one of the videos showed the game crashing at the very end.

Good pathfinding is doable.. case in point Warcraft 3.

Maybe I'm just a noob, but the pathfinding in ZH seemed fine to me...
