My PC is a stinking cheater!

[MadeinHell]

Yesterday I installed Puzzle Quest on my PC again. I remembered it as being fun, little game that draw me in for hours upon hours of "logic puzzles".
What I completely forgot was that the AI enemy in that game CHEATS LIKE HELL! I do know that it has to cheat "a little" to create a reasonable challenge but hey, if the AI can do you 80 damage in one turn with JUST THE SKULLS that "luckly" fall from the top of the screen than something is really wrong .
It's so annoying and pissing me off so much that I eventually turned off the game. So... what games do you remember for cheating A LOT because for me it's Chaos League and Warhammer40KoW2 (phew long title) hard AI in skirmish battles, it didn't even try to HIDE the fact that it cheated like hell .

And what's your reaction when the computer cheats a lot? I usually start to go "psycho" and talk to the damn thing in a very very uncivilized manner
"oh yeah use your super cheating powers you **@#&%@*)%*^!)*@ ARGH! You are doing that to piss me off! ARGH!".
And as you might have guessed from the last part of that sentence I also start going paranoid.

Number one cheating game that has pissed me off to no end: the entire Mario Kart series. Every single one of them and their goddamned rubber banding. You can be within half a second of winning a race, come in second, then try again and improve your time by a full minute (on a three-minute-long race) and have everything turn out exactly the same. Something's just not right with that.

Monopoly on my Pocket PC >.> CPU always cheats! I had all of the top of the board except Water Works. hotels on all in 40 passes of the board the CPU managed to double around or land on Water works only!

 

[fishman279]

On Football Manager when the computer awards itself a last-minute penalty to tie the game. So...Infuriating...

Or this. Damn those blue shells hitting you at the last second...

Oh, how I hated the "AI" in that game. No Nintendo, having beaten enemies reappear seconds before the finish where the hit you with a red shell is NOT fun.

Some of the worst cheating is in some lesser FPSs, where the computer can line up a perfect headshot all across the map every time. You all know the games I am talking about.

 

[Kouen]

Ah here we go!

All with the " / " Was mine and yea 40 goes round the board and would only land on Water Works...
as you can imagine I /ragequit

I was about to come in and say "It isn't as bad as in Puzzle Quest"

But...you were talking about Puzzle Quest.

Pretty much any RTS or TBS game the AI cheats like fuck. Its amazing that we can develop pretty damn impressive AI for moving round a 3d worldspace firing off weapons like theres no tommorow but can't create even a rudimentary challenge for games which are little more than scaled up board games. Civ and the Total War games are some of the most blatant candidates with their massive economies chugging along sustaining vast armies with little to no economic improvements built within their borders, whilst your globe spanning uberstate can hardly afford the upkeep of a spearman.

I lol'd =D

That looks pretty OLD, odds are the CPU cheats cause it's AI is almost non-existant. Isn't there any newer Monopoly games?

 

[Spaceman_Spiff]

The Age of Empires games always pissed me off seeing as how they can see through the Fog of War, that and Mario party, cheap, broken shitty game!

The good thing about Age of Empires is that it allows you to cheat right back.
"Oh, you build the counter to my archers without scouting my base? Well, how about countering a SPACEMAN WITH A LASER RIFLE?"

The game was made for Windows Mobile 2002 and still works on today's up to date Windows mobile devices

Chess, if it's fair that they can know every single possible move you could make even before you make it then I guess I'm just pissed off.

 

[Eleima]

Like Kouen, I've had Monopoly games in which I owned a string of properties, and the computer would never, ever stop there.
I think it's one of those rare games in which I do actually ragequit.

I'm also pretty sure the computer's cheating when I play Unreal Tournament 2004, but I have no proof, unfortunately... (I could swear he re spawns in more favorable areas!).

Warcraft III.

When you're facing a bot, they manage to build a base in roughly .25 seconds and manage to max three heroes in another 2.00 seconds.

They then proceed to rape your base (which has just built its first Barracks) within 5.00 seconds.

 

[sanezombie]

Starcraft, they seem to build anything twice as fast as you can.

 

[CarbonEagle]

The Perfect Agent difficulty on Perfect Dark (or whatever the hardest was called). They could walk through walls had perfect instant aim and had WAY more health and speed than you did...WTF!!

Unless, of course, you're actually good at the game The comp does cheat at the more difficult levels, but the easiest doesn't use any cheat I've noticed at least. The hardest level does get twice as much resources as you do though.

Should probably add that I can't beat any bot beyond the easiest, and then I can only win if I've sent my Blademaster to kill all his workers
