Better AI in games over graphics


I kind of got to thinking tonight as I played on the PS4 that graphics nowadays are so good but are they really much better than say four or five years ago. Whether one plays in 1080 or 4K they both look incredible. And with all these HD / ultra HD games we just move to be bigger and more ridiculous installation sizes. But what seems to be neglected is in-game AI. some games do it better than others. But has AI really moved on over the years? Games certainly have some dodgy AI in them and seem no better than games of over a decade ago. Graphics keep moving on but I kind of think maybe the graphics should take a backseat so in game AI can really move on. I know AI is a non issue in multiplayer games when interacting with humans. but I still think a lot of people like me like single player games.

i like driving games myself most of all. But to be honest I find the computer AI in modern games no better than an old game like Grand Prix 2 which I used to play circa 1995. I just don’t think it is has moved on in great strides like graphics. I guess graphics will always push on so the hardware demands increase and the gpu makers like nvidia can keep squeezing us for cash. Though I do struggle to see how the graphics can get that much better.

Laptop or Desktop machine ?

- Laptop = Nothing can be done (for significant improvement). What you see is what you get. You cannot upgrade the graphics processor

in a laptop, and adding more RAM will not help a machine with an inadequate graphics processor do a better job of running games.

You could buy an external graphics processor unit, but his option is not cost effective.

- Desktop = You could upgrade to a higher end dedicated graphics card, assuming your machine has a low end dedicated graphics card.

If it currently has no dedicated graphics card and you want to buy one you will likely also need to buy a new power supply,

as most machines from the big PC mfg's come with a psu that is only adequate for the system as is.

Many machines that do not already have a dedicated graphics card also don't have adequate cooling for high end gaming.

Assuming you are wanting to run high spec system intensive games.

The cpu speed is also a factor, but less important than the graphics processor.
