Quote: what if its 10 bobs vs 10 bobs, who would win?
I think it was established on page 2 that already 2 bobs vs, 2 bobs was beyond the capability of the AI.
I guess if you wanted to up odds in favour of the AI you could give the AI two bobs against your single one. Good idea, eh???
This map is still one of the hardest there is to play out there, offering about equal chances to the AI.

This is a boring idea. Complexity is the whole idea of Heroes. You have to have many skills, 8 towns, upgrades, and multiple creatures. Bob isn't even funny. It's a mangling idea of Homm.

Mvassilev. How do you say that name anyway. It took me like 5 tries just to spell your name right. We should call you Bob. MUCH simpler. You need to remember the KISS Theory. It stands for Keep It Simple Stupid. No that's too complicated... How about you just remember Bob... okay Bob?

Sounds like we need to bring back Dolly...
But this would be a completely change the game. At the beginning of the game you choose to be either Bob or Dolly and what your opponent will be. The strategy in battle would be to either Kiss Bob or Dolly before the opponent kisses you.

dolly might be way too complicated for the ai. a computer is just a machine, it would be unfair to expect so much intelligence from it. i think a three letter palindromial girl name would be better to make the races even. is there any?

palindrome is.. well, sort of a symmetrical word. like bob. this could make it less complicated for the computer, because instead of a 3 letter name the computer might only remember a 3-1 letter name. and it would be a lot easier for the players, also.
sus or eue would be palindromes. sue is a nice name, though.
hmm.. sus and bob doesn't sound too bad. what is sis in english?

sis is short for sister. Thus I think bob and sis would sound better than sis and bob.

How about MOM? BOB and MOM. The first player to kiss the other wins. But I'm afraid this will upset some people. It could be considered as sending subliminal messages to sleep with your parents. And that's way too complex for this game.

Why does there have to be two people???
Why not just Bob??? Why does there have to be sis or mom or eve or whatever? That just complicates things. Remember KISS!

if i would say anything more than i say in this post now, i would probably be banned from this forum for ever, and this ban would be inherited by my descendants.
but, yeah, why should the opposing sides be different persons? maybe it should just be bob who is arguind with himself.. for exmple, to quit drinking or not (or to kiss himself or not).

Maybe the game should be called Time. And all it does is show a blank screen. The game is to waste time by staring vacantly at the blank screen. This would be perfect. Not too confusing. Just stare at the screen. And staring at a blank screen wouldn't confuse the player with all kinds of complicated graphics.

great idea. to play such a game you would only need a monitor. much less confusing system requirements.
the homm4 graphics was complicated indeed. didn't help the player to generalize like 'this is forest and this is passable grassland,' because the passable grassland looked almost exactly the same as the forest.
assuming that the game is meant to be played while drinking beer, etc, so the homm4 picture you get when your vision gets blurry might be difficult to interpret even by sophisticated (and thus buggy) computer programs.
imagine playing homm4 with 10 times less resolution.

I did, but I consider myself an intellectual and like a challenge.
Bob seems about my level.
Bring on Bob!

You guys must be crazy!
You are out of your minds... This game will never be sold! Think of the spelling..
Apples: Aplz
Bob: B?
And the game should only be computerplayed, no need to involve some real humans for this..
And i've got a campaigin idea:
Da landt uf aplz ant goadz!
Story: B? fintz an' apl
The first and only map will involve the computer sending a bob to fetch an apple, and then the game crashes, because "Victory" is 2 hard a word.
Besides, there will only be one map. It will consist of 2 bobs walking against eachother(computer-played) and then the game crashes, because victory is 2 hard a word, and defeat will make people kill themselves if they have trauma about just wasting 100 dollars on the Bob-game. The games name shall be known as "B?&B?2"
Everything on the map is black, and the Bobs will be white, which makes the game good for color-blind people. The game has a menu that consists of 2 thing "Hodsit" and "Kampain" Because the games crashes after you've played it anyways.
This is how it'll look:
As you can see it's been edited to look better.
