Mixed comments about the new Command and Conquer 4 game

I have started on the new Command and Conquer 4 (C&C4) game shortly after it came out and have the following comments:

1. The game is a little bit unstable and crashes occasionally, especially when accessing the menu items too shortly after the main menu has appeared for the first time.

2. Always having to be on the internet is an annoyance because of connection lost during a solo mission does not allow continuing and ends up with having to replay the mission. This was particularly annoying on the last Nod mission. An offline mode for playing the game on a LAN would be great, especially when there is no internet connection nearby. The fact that some people consider a disconnect as cheating is stupid. I understand why they don't like it if someone disconnects after getting annoyed, but they would never know if it was just a bad connection.

3. Some of the missions are yet again impossible odds and having to be everywhere at the same time. How some of the missions are supposed to be completed in Medium or Hard difficulty is beyond me. Many of them can be done on Medium difficulty, but not all. i am not a hardcore gamer who plays games every days for at least six hours or more.

4. The multiplayer is not bad actually because there is no long base building, the action starts immediately. It is more about micromanagement now. The players in multiplayer stay in the game instead of whoever is eliminated first has to watch for the next 30 minutes to one hour until the game is done.
