Pure 4X turn-based.

Glad to hear this - I jumped in on the elite package assuming this would be the case, but got a little worried when I real a few posts speculating about the possibility of real time segments in the game.

I'm a turn based guy, all the way - hope they keep it that way!

Well, Turn based kill this game for me.,  Im not investing in some shit turn based game like the early 90's.  Bring on Sins II 64x please.

PLEASE FOR MP

a client-Server version, while the human Players are doing their turn, the AI should also work on his ...

NOT LIKE IT IS IN CIV V ,,, at the end quarter of the game, we are waiting more for AI than we Play ... that is worse gamedesign !

ok ok :       "Amen"

 .....to  BOTH!   

turned based "empire building" - real time planetary battles and fleet battles, would be Godly.
