Great Start!

Just wanted to say I'm pleasantly surprised at how well the game works considering its alpha (or pre-alpha) state. Just popped in, benchmarked and played a round (won) no problems. DX 11, win8.1, i7 4930k 64gb ram GTX 780.

I love gal civ, total A, sins, planetary A etc, so really excited to see true push for a next gen RTS!

I'd love to see a zoom out to icons view (a la planetary annihilation) and can we just make factories forever-build by default? are we there yet?

Kudos to the team and I look forward to a great buildup to launch!

They don't want a screen full of icons. I think "build forever" needs to be a conscious choice, which is how it is now, otherwise it would be too easy for newer players to have economy problems. Maybe make an option for it, but I doubt that option would see much use. The strategic map (accessed with the space bar) is kind of fill-in right now, so it will see improvements.
