Maybe I’m too old, but I find the game to be extremely hard. I couldn’t win a single online game, so I tried against AI on normal difficulty, but this is extremely hard as well.
I understand when you play on higher difficulty levels you have to keep strictly to one single and only sequence of buidling things, but on normal difficulty it should be fun for casual players like me as well. But it isn’t since I can’t win even against AIs. A few years back I had no problem winning matches in C&C2 and simillar games. So is HW2 especially hard or have things changed in the past years?

I must be doing something wrong because the campaign is insanely hard and I’m on normal…
I don’t think it’s hard, I think it’s just a bit more difficult in the aspect of strategies and how each unit works compared to the original Halo Wars. Once you get the hang of it you’ll enjoy it a bit more.
I lost now 20 games of Blitz in a row. So I assume this game is especialy made for professional players and not for “normal” people with a job and a social life who cannot train 8 hours each day?
You could be losing Blitz because some people have dropped money on cards and have high level units. The goal of most RTSs is to play as fast as you can while still making sound tactical decisions. I think you just aren’t applying yourself enough. You don’t need to train to get good but put in an hour or two every so often and you will see improvement.
