Beta Feedback: Early game very sluggish, science much faster than production

A few other feedback points:

 

1) The early game feels very very sluggish right now. I feel like it takes a large number of turns before I can do anything reasonable with my civ.

2) I feel that production falls woefully behind science. I am cranking out techs that give me building structures much quicker than I could hope to build them.

I think this comes down to a planet's base production is too low. It takes a too much production infrastructure to get a planet to the point that it can build anything reasonable.

Which civ are you playing? I find that the Irridium are pretty good with production (since they get a +2 bonus to it) It could be that it is the civ you chose. I recommend that you purchase either a new colony ship or rush a factory or 2 to get your production situated.

I do normally rush the first 2 factories...but I agree races play a factor. I was playing altarians, which have a big research bump but no production.

 

When I played as humans the pace was more balanced.
