That mock up looks pretty good! I really don't like the current 'giant bar on the right side' UI design.

Reply to "Neutral" ideology needs to be reworked. in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="Larsenex" reply="11" id="3524642"] This one trait makes the neutral line what it is..neutral..no war. [/quote] But even if you are neutral, that doesn't mean every other race is neutral towards you. This trait forces all races to be neutral towards you through an arbitrary game mechanic.

Reply to "Neutral" ideology needs to be reworked. in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I don't like this trait as it is. It's no fun to play against AI that are using it. And I can't figure out how it makes sense story wise...I mean, what's physically stopping my ships from shooting at their ships? It seems to be just an arbitrary block. And 100 turns is a very long time. There must be a way to rework this trait so it's fun. Maybe change it so that you CAN declare war on them if you want, but at a huge diplomatic penalty w

I have this problem in my current game as the yor. I can't declare war on the Iridium.

Brass taxes. :D Seriously though, beam weapons need to be actual beams again. Some blaster types are cool, but I'm seeing no real beams anymore.

sentry mode wakes up if any ship comes in sensor range guard mode wakes up if an enemy comes in range. Am I right?

Reply to General thoughts in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="mrblondini" reply="12" id="3522217"] IMO this is the end result of worrying too much about "Immersion", folks. I've always taken "Immersion" - and please correct me if my reading here is too harsh - as meaning "make me forget I'm sitting in my room playing a game I bought off WhateverWebsite/From WhateverGameStore and this is as realistic as possible". By my admittedly most likely too strict definition, immersion in 4X set in 2525 (I think that's the st

[quote who="AzraeldeBaphuon" reply="8" id="3522224"] All weapon ranges set to the same level it makes differences senseless... [/quote] I just mean initially. Then techs could be researched to increase range.

It seems good balancing will be the key here.

Reply to Tech trading in this game is a micromanagement nightmare in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I kind of like the way Civ V handles research agreements.

I don't think the three weapon types should initially have different ranges. in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I firmly believe that the three weapon types should initially have no range difference. It's unbalancing. Let it be up to the civ to make the decision to spend resources researching techs that increase range. If for instance, beams have a better range, then why ever pick anything else? By the time you get close enough to use the potentially more powerful but shorter range weapons, whoever has beams already has an advantage.

In one of the 'Brad's feedback's, Brad mentioned the possibility of having anomalies offer ideology choices. If they do this, it would keep ideology points coming in during the later game.

Reply to I'll be waiting for production overflow in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="Lavo_2" reply="22" id="3521786"] One thing that bugs me as well, is that more advanced versions of factories cannot be built in one turn. One must build the starting factory, and then each turn do a single upgrade. [/quote] This bugs me too. This production/research overflow problem sounds serious, but I've never heard of it. Can anyone give me a quick rundown?

Reply to How the heck is the 'power' number generated? in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Now I'm at 7k and the Iridium are at 36k? This seems strange, I've been building a ton of military ships and the economy-focused race is 7 times my power. Somethings weird with these numbers.

How the heck is the 'power' number generated? in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I'm at about turn 70 in my current game as the Yor, I've only met the Iridium and already my power number is only 2915 and theirs is 1210?? How is that possible? I've noticed this happening in my last couple of games.
