[quote who="Smithy6482" reply="2" id="3529398"] If I may ask a noob question as well since I'm new to the GalCiv series...what's the point of mining? I can't find anything currently in the game that state any bonuses are received. Durantium, Elerium (sp?), and antimatter all seem to have no purpose. The relics are fantastic, but the resources...? Am I missing the obvious? Thanks in advance. [/quote] Currently not much, they are used in special components for ship

[quote quoting="post"]If i build a mining starbase near a resource say anti matter and its nowhere near one of my planets do i have to build a ship to transport it to one of my planets or does just building the starbase and modules needed automatically add the rss to my manufacturing capability?[/quote] Just the starbase and upgrade it with a mining ring. [quote]Also is someting similar needed for Asteroids.[/quote] Asteroid mining isn't in yet, the devs have said

This should be answered by Stardock. But I see two methods, one our keys are on the SD website and we enter them on Steam, or method two Steam can tell the Elite edition apart from the rest, when I look at my transactions I see Galactic Civilizations® III - Founder's Elite Edition. Have you told your friend that he can purchase directly from Stardock and just enter the codes on Steam? The only problem I had with Steam is when I bought some DLC for Saint's Row 3 and

Makes me curious how an Arcean or a Drath would compare.

[quote who="OsirisDawn" reply="40" id="3528918"] The founder packs were $99 and $39.99. The $45 'never going lower' promo (as many understood) came shortly before EA was anounced IIRC. I dont know if it ranked as a founder pack. Do you even read? I already said i dont have that mail anymore ... i deleted it, because i already was a founder. If i have the time i might check my backups ... but i dont think i am invested enough in t

Look at this page , and scroll down. Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access? "Galactic Civilizations III may be part of promotions both during the Early Access period and after, but the base price will remain $49.99." You still haven't provided one iota of proof to back your claims.

I apologize for posting in an old thread. But I wanted to bring to people's attention this mod: Bloodlines Antitribu . Description Bloodlines Antitribu is mod/expansion developed for Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines – a classic game based on the PnP world of darkness. Here you can find a full list of changes. Added over seven new clans each with completely new character models and unique trait

Exact words . [quote quoting="post"] The limited availability of the regular Founder's Edition is coming to a close as we near the launch of the Galactic Civilizations III Founder's Alpha, which will go out exclusively to Elite Founders who purchased the $99 edition. The last day to purchase the $39.99 Founder's Edition is <stron

[quote who="OsirisDawn" reply="29" id="3528872"] Yeah sure. Because the man at the gas station promised the price wont change... [e digicons] The Problem is, that Stardock promised something and then broke word. It is the loss of trust that is the problem. I doubt the $100 founders (i am one) are the ones complaining here. The others are and with right. They didnt invest $45 because the game is worth it right now, but because they belie

[quote who="artstsym" reply="16" id="3527981"] I have (for the most part, moments of GC3 weakness) avoided playing the beta until my favorite parts of the game - custom races - are released. Am I to understand that this time of tribulation will soon be over? In other words, is this the next beta update? [/quote] Yes. It will be released sometime in March.

Ironclad went solo on this one. It is available on the Steam store.

A tad unrelated, but here's another RTS from Stardock: Ashes of the Singularity . It will focuses on large scale battles and will use the Nitrous engine.

[quote who="Borg999" reply="28" id="3527777"] So this is a PvP game? No single player option?

Start on barren asteroid outposts, gathering parts and learning to control your team of Servos. Land on distant mining moons, fighting hostile Bloomspawn and rival Servos.

Heads up, the official site was updated with new info. Looks interesting, but sadly I have too many games to play as it is. Will likely wait until it is released.

Are you playing on a laptop? It sounds to me like it's overheating. The same thing happened to me on my laptop, I cleaned it's fans and added thermal paste and no longer encountered that problem.

It's a sale on all GalCiv games, not just 3. It's Steam, games go on sale all the time, also the game was also half off in December. The tentative release date is May, previous was April, small delay was because Brad wanted more time to work on the AI. And the game was fully funded from the beginning. Also a statement from Brad: [quote quoting="post"] I saw Galactic Civilizations III on Steam on discount even though it's still in early access. We have re

The tentative release date is late April or early May.

Yes and yes.

Here's something from a support email: If you're missing fonts or not seeing them show properly, please try the following instructions below after exiting GalCiv3. -Navigate to this directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Galactic Civilizations III\Fonts -Run this EXE: gc3_font_setup.exe -Start up GalCiv3 and see if the fonts show up properly. If you are still not seeing the fonts, try deleting a few files listed below in this d

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="4" id="3526021"] Not a Moba. Definitely RTS. [/quote] Good. That genre, MOBA, is oversaturated. Eagerly awaiting to see a video of the game.

I await more info, but I'm getting a MOBA vibe from the concept art.

[quote who="charon2112" reply="36" id="3525030"] Quoting PaulTozour, reply 35 What about The Escapist? What is that mothership forum tag? [/quote] They are one of Stardock's independent development partners. More info <a href="h

I believe what Larsenex is asking is if we can select a minor faction as a major.

[quote who="Tetrasodium" reply="6" id="3524839"] it's more of a curiosity than concern, how is the race's homework pq determined. I'm laying in bed on my phone, but iirc some races have a 10 & 4-5 while the yor have a +15(?). The screenshots have homeworld name and no indications that I could see about that. [/quote] They stated in the stream that you would be able to customize the homeworld, it's just not implemented yet.
