Is the demo difficulty reflective of the actual game?
The first assigned mission in the demo seems impossible even on easy (escort the Baumont, then get jumped by pirate cruisers and destroyers with only a destroyer to fight with). Am I doing something wrong? Are you just supposed to lose this encounter? I seem to get surrounded and all my shields vaporize before I get more than a couple shots off.
Or am I supposed to do so much before this mission that my ship is far better than what you start out with?
More importantly, are all missions this difficult in the demo and full game? If they are, I may pass on this game.
