It's really to play online, its so slow. It takes a good 7 min to go through the first 10 turns.

It also freezes, the game has completly froze twice, once when multiplayer wasnt slow!

Ive only had two times where humans havn't have been going slow on there turns, out of ten times ive played it.

Please 2k, have the 30 second timer be normal speed in ranked games, please?

about the timer... bad idea when the game progresses later on. when u have a lot of units being controlled and built u spent a lot of time managing them since u cannot move entire stacks at once.

They need to reduce the turn timer for the early part of the game because people spend the entire length of their turn even if there is nothing to do and the game just starts to take forever right away. Then the other players seem to get bored and quit.
