The game I like very well, installation and online issue is a joke

The installation of the download version is an outrage. After the 5,5GB were finally approved to be downloaded and installed when you first start the game equal nich an update with more than 1GB. After standing further 5 to 7 updates to Ubiplay etc.. The whole lasted outrageously long.

When you first launch attempt on Win7 64bit the game started only not but crashed with an error message (in my documents folder can not be written). After brief Googling I could find and eliminate the cause. Then there was the same the next error message that I could fix while I started the game as an administrator. Meanwhile, the game runs, the annoying Synchronize my Scores with Ubisoft cloud I have to endure halt.

The game itself, I find it very successful. The last settlers version I played was Version 2. What has improved since the flexible warfare. I also like that I can lay my ways even still. Why are some multiplayer options are not enabled I Nocht not found. I hope after I have finished the campaign are also these options available.

Addendum: I have now played through the campaign. Overall, the campaign was too short and too easy. Now I have the opportunity again to play the same card against computer AI or human opponents in "Skirmish Mode". But that's too boring. The included map editor is a joke. One can nothing pure change to the landscape. Only raw material distribution, winning condition etc. can be changed. Because of the lack of long-term game fun I have therefore deducted a star.
