It's quite, too quiet...

;-)

May 23, 2014 3:24:27 PM from Galactic Civilizations III ForumsGalactic Civilizations III Forums

With the rescheduling and relative quite forums I'm wondering what is happening behind the curtains right now? What aren't they telling us?

So what's something new/a known feature you guys are working on today? Feel free to vent frustration and express joy, Just please anyone mildly affiliated with Stardock if you can tell us anything from a office joke to the making of new art would be appreciated. Really anyone from the art, design, or programming saying anything big or small would end my despair.

Exactly. I was playing X3 (the best/worst game ever) for a a few days and when I came back to the forums my subscriptions were at...zero.

 

Seriously though(*). If there is any announcement from a new office vending machine or any type of update willll keep me from...being bored!

No, not that! Please, developers, we've seen the types of posts from DARCA when he's busy and occupied, please don't subject us to his bored posts!!! Come on, give the vault a little love. Give the GalCiv world a few bread crumbs. Pretty please.

We'll get some new stuff up next week. They've been pushing for the June 5 milestone.

Here are the things that have come across my desk:

  1. Completely new tech tree
  2. New planet screen
  3. Ships are no longer built on planets but rather in star ports that players launch into space (we plan to make them be able to be anchored and unanchored so that players can move them to other parts of the galaxy for decreasing late game tedium).
  4. Basic weapons effects
  5. Totally revamped Shipyard UI
  6. 3D printing support of shipyard creations

^ +1 for finally getting a avatar. But I am better off bored than busy when it comes to coming up with ideas because i start to think more. (to capitalize gag and not DARCA is a insult to the coolness of my name!)

Thank you frogboy! I have to say after playing X3 a bit a like the shipyard idea more now, and understand some of the drawbacks better now too.

You have done me/us a real solid brother Brad, my despair is now over!
