I AGREE 100%. I WOULD LIKE TO RETURN TO THE PREVIOUS VERSION. THIS NEW ONE IS SLOW, GLITCHY, USER UNFRIENDLY, AND I DO NOT WANT TO GO GET A COMPUTER SCIENCE DEGREE TO PLAY A LEISURE GAME. SIMPLE THINGS LIKE INCREASING THE NUMBER OF TROOPS I WANT TO BUILD IN INCREMENTS OF PLUS OR MINUS ONE DOESN'T SEEM LIKE TOO MUCH TO EXPECT. CONNECTING TO A PANTHEON FROM THE COALITION PANTHEON LIST SEEMS LIKE IT SHOULD BE A REASONABLE EXPECTATION >> ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO THAT BEFORE THE BETA VERSION. AND A HUNDRED OTHER COMPLAINTS MINOR AND MAJOR ABOUT THE GAME PLAY. THIS BETA THING IS NOT READY FOR ROLLOUT. AND IF THE GAME CONTINUES TO FREEZE UP ON ME EVERY 3-5 MINUTES, I WILL ABANDON PLAYING. FRUSTRATION OVER PREVIOUSLY EASY FUNCTIONS IS NOT MY IDEA OF A GOOD TIME, AND I CERTAINLY CAN FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO DO WITH MY TIME THAN RELOADING THE GAME AND WAITING FOR TWO MINUTES EVERY TIME I WANT TO RAID ANOTHER CITY OR RECALL SOME TROOPS FROM A FRIEND.
