Question

Do people play chess differently on the computer than in real life?

Answer 1

no the rules are the same whether you play online or on a board but some countrys play diffrently than other countries

Answer 2

Strategy is a little bit different when playing a comp.  Computers never miss tatics that are within their moves a head limit (I usually set it at around 8) so you can not hope to out tatic a computer.  Instead you have to play much more logically and less creatively if you want to win.  Gary Kasparov was the best human vs comp player ever.

Answer 3

If they are good, yes.  Computers are for trying weird c**p they not pull on humans.

Answer 4

While the rules are the same, your strategy might have to be different, since the computer is usually much more logical than a human opponent, and does not miss opportunities.
