How often does AI reseacth on higher levels

[CokeHead]

Hey,

It seems to me that at Immortal they are researching techs at 1 every 4 turns. Thats ridiculous since no human player can ever beat the lead without taking military action (My swordsman vs. there rifleman).

I am playing on duel with 10 civs and the AI is just too fast. I can barely keep up. I kick ass at monarch but at emperor & higher levels I get f---ed.

Do you think it is a bad thing that there exists a level where the AI handicaps are too great to be countered by you? Do you want to be able to beat the AI on every difficulty level?
I think, it is great to find a level where you aren't assured of victory before you start the game. If emperor/immortal is that difficulty level for you, then that is nothing to be ashamed about.

Immortal is definitally that difficulty level for me.

I've won maybe 1/20th of my games on that level... I've flooded my score chart with loses because of it. =(

In your settings you can culture push, steal their land and resources and get even in research. But those settings are very favourable for human player. IN "Play now" setup, it looks that the primaty strategy is to go to war.
