Most competitive MP is played without AI, so 'intrigue' would be somewhat useless..
Well, obviously if I was talking about a mixed AI/MP game I wasn't talking about competitive MP. Nor should competitive MP be the only style of MP catered to. MP AI, and its deficiencies, is something that comes up quite a few times on the board and its current state is game breaking for people that play that way. Besides, the way the quote was phrased was that they were deliberately turning it off. Competitive MP would play all Human players, so having it on or off wouldn't affect them in the least. It only affects people who like to play with AI in MP and it seems a conscious choice not to have MP AI comparable to SP AI (which again would not interfere with the competitive scene at all as they wouldn't play games with the AI slots).
