Do you think AI software and Internet companies’s expertise levels are too high and the game is too challenging and not fun?

If you think so, how would you like us to improve it?

After testing the Digital Age I think this game isn't that challenging at all. I'm playing all on hard except random events and once you start making profits.... you kind of remain there.
I'd wish research to be even more complicated, not as user experience but in terms of what you could do in an internet company.

To have some options of what you could implement in terms of features would be nice.

As per my comment in another thread, it definitely needs to be a configurable setting. I think the current level of competitors is ridiculous and takes away the fun of the game. I think this is a no-brainer because people that like it difficult can leave it on default and the rest of us that like to have more control over our game experience can adjust accordingly.

Please can you also change the way the Digital age competitors work, they should be part of the standard competitors you set in the normal game and you should be able to set how many you want. i.e. a company can decide their strategy is retail, real estate or digital.

We have just released patch v5.2.00, which you may download from: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=4768

Version 5.2.00
For Digital Age DLC:
A new option for setting limits the maximum number of AI software and Internet companies in a game. A lower value means an easier game.
See the attached screenshot.

Script support: http://www.capitalismlab.com/scripts/script-dlcs/

Max AI software and Internet companies=<number>
This option limits the maximum number of AI software and Internet companies in a game. A lower value means an easier game.

You may set the limits for software and Internet companies separately using the following lines:
Max AI software companies = <number>
Max AI OS companies = <number>
Max AI Internet companies = <number>


We believe that this should address the issue discussed on this thread. If you still have any concerns, please let us know.
