The game of DICE

[1UPAviator]

I love the mini-games so far, especially dice. Initially I thought it was going to be Liars Dice, but realized it’s actually 6-roll dice. Anyway, I’ve noticed some issues with the AI during dice gameplay and just wanted to share:

1. AI will continue rolling unnecessarily after achieving score == 2000. I’ve seen the AI lose several times due to busting this way.
2. AI will occasionally “score and pass” after hitting on all 6-dice, instead of “scoring and rolling”.
3. Player always receives the dice to start the game. This is a huge advantage as the player can often determine the outcome of the game with a strong first round.
4. AI makes misc. poor scoring choices (ex: choosing to roll with only 1-die after scoring 5-die when they are way out in front).

That’s all I have so far. Overall very fun mini-game that could use a patch.

Additional:

1. Add AI animations for two AI playing dice together (I’ve seen two AI sit down at the table together, but they never play).
2. Allow AI to choose wager or barter with you on what they want to bet.
3. Add “high-stakes” dice tables that allow bets of items or horses. Perhaps these could be rare tables, not often found. (If this is already in the game, disregard).

Anyone else have any dice related bugs or ideas?

Aren’t some opponents just stupid and that’s the reason they play this way?
I miss that players don’t drink beer during the rounds

I had to reload a couple of times just to beat Zdena. I’m glad it isn’t incredibly difficult.

Yes Zilch AI is all over the place and could do with a lot of rethinking.
