because you suck at playing dutch. try another civ. if you keep dying then maybe wait untiol the game is actually released and play some noobs. everyone online now is probably pretty decent.

Weak early on is a bit of an understatement. Seems like they were balanced with team games in mind rather than 1on1.

I'm trying to master the dutch as well, but indeed there is this time frame early on where you are really vulnerable.
In team games you can ask for support during this period.
I believe the dutch are a really good team civ, once you have several banks running the coin rolls in enough to tribute substantial amounts to your team mates.

There is no such thing as turtling, booming, rushing in a 1vs1. Forget about it. Get a new civ.
