The game looks like its rushed and unfinished.Graphics are all good but it lacks the content to be perfect.
The hero system - it has just too few possibilities,each armor part has only 3-4 choices and the same problem with skills.
AI - CPU player is really bad,hes just rushing and when hes out of resources he send wef troops or doing nothing..no defence.
Gameplay - buildings are too easy to demolish and why there ain't no possibility to send your troops to the walls(it was in previous version though)?

Please EA patch those things so people can 100% enjoy your game.
