I agree and I mentioned the sign and release problem a few times, including
here.
I think the first thing is we have to do is stop calling it "AI". OOTP uses static, pre-programmed decision tree logic (if x, then y). So, call it a Scripted Logic Engine. Or Static Rule Tree. Or Non-Adaptive Strategy Model. But let's not call it "AI". The OOTP engine is not intelligent, it's not adaptive, and it never learns. It's always going to be: if x, then y.
This has been the most disappointing (and frustrating) OOTP release I've ever experienced. When the annual pre-release email arrives next spring, it's going straight to the trash.
