Well for one thing to review a game on Steam you need to own it, so that helps. By the way how are you getting those scores for Steam? It's only recommended or not recommended. As for the new update for the most part I like it. I'd wish the curator part was lower on the page, an easier way to go from the game's page to it's forums, it still recommends some games that are in my wishlist, and to have a list of the games I marked as not interested, I think most of them ar

Something like The Last Federation ? Seems interesting, but only the devs would know if it's feasible. As Gaunathor mentioned in terms of ancient civilizations there are only the Arnor and Dread Lords. Of course there are also the Mithrilar, namely Draginol and Mascrinthus,

Just stumbled across this on the Steam forums: One interesting side note that you are probably noticing: Soren Johnson (designer of Civ IV) and Dorian Newcomb (lead artist on Civ IV - I think, might have been Civ V) are working with Stardock at a new studio called Mohawk and have been helping us. At the same time, Jon Shafer (desi

I prefer how terraforming worked in GCII. It was easier to tell which tiles could be terraformed and results were easier to achieve. In GCIII it is rather hard to tell which tiles can be made usable, and until the last tech terraforming is rather useless since each tech only allows you to terraform one tile. As such there is no point to invest in terraforming instead of the other techs. I am not really fond of being forced to choose an ideology when I have the points required, fo

5c. I have noticed this in the Benevolent Ideology tree too. 14. No longer encountered this problem. 28b. This also happens for Elevation Foundation and Missionary Center. 30. There are some starbase modules from the Kinetic Weapon techs that have the name "Not in Alpha". 31. The Benevolent trait Prominence is applied to all planets, not just the first 5.

You will have to wait until it is close to release or after release. [quote]The current plan is to, at a minimum, support German, French, and Russian as well. However, this process won't begin prior to release because there's a lot of text expected in the game (over 100,000 words which is, in effect, a book's worth of text). That's because each race has its own technology tree, wi

To decommission a ship, select that ship, click Details and then you will see the Decommission button. They plan to implement getting some credits back when you decommission a ship.

Reloaded, tried mlitary ring, same result. Reloaded, built a Starbase Defense System, it worked, after which tried an economic ring, CTD. Submitted a ticket, #FLW-894-10975. 24.

[quote who="Gaunathor" reply="8" id="3492271"] This is a game I started before the patch and continued to play it with the opt-in patch. This could be the reason for some of your bugs.

8. Encountered a planet I can't invade, doesn't seem to have ships defending. I'll see if this still happens when I load the game. 9. Problem with Guard and Sentry, I leave a fleet stationed in enemy solar systems to destroy shipyards, when an enemy shipyard is completed they don't wake up. 10. Tourism seems a tad overpowered at the moment, all my production is going to manufacturing and research and I still have positive income. 11. The Benevolen

Will the Founder's Vault ever get any new content? Are trade routes going to be limited in number? Because 9 or so on an immense map isn't a lot. Is the in-game encyclopedia still in the cards? In the files I read about different types of alliances, will we be able to have multiple alliances with the same civilization? Ex. have Cultural and Technological alliance with the Altarians.

This is a game I started before the patch and continued to play it with the opt-in patch. 1. In the sponsor list for a shipyard a planet is listed incorrectly, this one only has Earth and Mars, yet Devoa III is listed instead of Mars. In the shipyard manage screen the planets are listed correctly. I recall removing and adding planets as sponsors to the shipyard Devoa III belonged to, so that might have something to do with it. <a href="http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/49859

According to the files the robot is for the Iridium, considering Frogboy compared them to BnL this makes sense. So the other civilizations will probably have their own news reporters.

The tooltips will get better as development progresses. Also the game is still in development and how game mechanics function can still change. An in-game encyclopedia was mentioned once. If it is still planed I am not sure. [quote quoting="post"]These backstories aren't presented in the game (though they may make their way into an in-game encyclopedia of some kind)[/quote]
