AI replacement player question

from Sins Forums
The fact that the AI takes over for a human player who gets dropped in a multiplayer game is a very cool feature, but what level of AI is it? Easy/Medium/Hard?

It might be interesting for the game to pick an intelligence level to help autobalance the teams. For example, if team A is beating the heck out of team B, and a team A player drops, then stick them with an idiot AI to help even things out :)

Or likewise, if the losing team drops a player then give them a genius AI replacement to assist.

Just a suggestion. Might make things more interesting than just using a Medium or randomized AI for every dropped player. Dunno how AI personalities would work in with this, but difficulty level seems like a good candidate for adjustment to attempt in evening the playing field.

I suspect it's probably a Normal AI. If everyone were to restart from a save game, however, the host would determine the AI type.

Cool information to know. It should be added to the FAQ.

Dang, the game seems to keep track of so very many stats I thought it could take a wild guess at what kind of AI would best fit.
