Swing by the Stardock's Twitch.tv channel for the latest on Galactic Civilizations III development, live from Michigan at 3pm Eastern time (noon Pacific, 9pm CET).

Lead Designer Paul Boyer will take your questions while showing off an internal build with some stuff you guys haven't seen before.

If you can't make the stream, drop your questions in the thread here and we'll try to get to them on the air.

All of our streams (including this one, when it's done processing later tonight) are archived on the Stardock YouTube channel, so you can catch up there at your leisure.

Thanks for tuning in, and happy conquering!

What's in alpha four?

and please try to remember this one and all ones on the fourms, there is a terrible pattern of these being largely forgotten and parrotmath getting numerous questions answered.

 

DARCA. ;)

I assume ship export will be added later.

Did the AI kind of take a step backwards in the last patch ??

O yeah this one a BIGGY for me in the improvement Que will that be improvement,.. it is hard to move things up or down the Que if there are a bunch in it.

the pop up gets in the way when you or added to the tiles on the planets. or is it my computer is just slow to react??

when I have enough resources to build ships some times I can build them some times I can`t is there a limit??

I have more but this is enough for now.

as far as I know, the real AI isn't even implemented yet.  They just put in a temp AI so the enemies will make some attempt to colonize planets and attack you.

I'm excited to see what will be in store for the next stream.

How are the designs for the Drengin ships coming? Could we see some of these designs in the vault?

What will the next Adam ship bring to the table in terms of ingenuity?

What are the things being considered for the Drengin Military bonuses?

I like the grid options you've done thus far.

Is Paul getting enough sleep?

Is there any new updates on what the combat system will bring to the table? We know you revamped it several times already and I'm wondering if there is any more news on the combat front.

Will we get a sneak preview of the carrier module or module designs you are considering?

I'm sure this has been around, but how is the carrier going to work? Is it a autonomous building platform that will build generic fighters or will if function like a mobile starport that can only build tiny ships and use any designs you have created to dock tiny ships and build them?

I would be very surprised if they were able to do this.

question regarding approval 

will approval drop when a planet is not making money or only when your civilization is not making money?

Thanks a lot for the stream, it is good seeing the internal build, planets are looking really nice and the gameplay possibilities with the terraforming sound great.

 

I am really interested in knowing if there are going to be changes the the fog of war on the map...I find myself disliking the grey fog more and more, really hoping it ends up looking better than that.
