AI

So I've had this game for a few days now and I've been greatly enjoying it. The AI is much better than it was in previous games for sure, but SOME characters are ridiculous in their AI form. I can't say whether or not these characters are just better than others or whether theres a balance issue, but the following characters are particularly difficult to fight against:

aPatrokolos
Xiba
Devil Jin
Astaroth (in some cases)

Moreover there might actually be a legitimate issue with some of the AI as you'll sometimes get in rounds where the AI will simply destroy you even when they're supposed to be at the beginner level. It's a bit annoying sometimes, but the game is still awesome.
 
The real problem is, at higher levels, winning is more about how well you can react to what theyre doing. They break pretty much every grab attempt and guard most lows. If you do an unsafe move, youll get punished with a big combo or worse; hit with a super attack. Sometimes you'll tap a button and the Ai will react to that tap and youll eat a super. The "A" ranked AI is so frustratingly difficult sometimes that it takes all the fun out of the game. It's impossible to mix them up at a point and all you can do is wait for an opening and hope to get a counter attack combo.

Fortunately, the game is still massively fun against human players.
