Just tried the demo...

Hey there,

I'm sorry to hear about the problems you've been having!

The game bringing you back to desktop is a problem we've never had reported, so I'm sorry (and surprised!) to hear that.

Our skirmish AI, unfortunately, won't give the toughest of challenges to advanced-level players, but the legendary campaign would definitely give you a run for your money. Also, our online features are intended to be a big part of the value of the game. I assure you, humans are far more devious than AI could ever be, and I find that the most rewarding style of playing the game.

I'm also sorry to hear about the performance issues you're encountering. The game is a bit of a workhorse, but it sounds like it's running even slower than I've traditionally seen it run for some reason. May I ask your machine specs?

Thanks for at least giving the game a whirl. =)
