In reply to Sailore [quote who="Seilore" reply="10" id="3556145"] PROBLEM - Another issue is that when you are in control of countless planets and new ones being colonized on a turn by turn basis they individually become nameless soulless dots that i look at from max zoom distance. For instance i click on idle colony button and it takes

I have to say that i am pleasantly surprised with the amount of replies and general consensus on the points i have made. Allot of player made guides that i red so far point out that worlds have to be developed as all round worlds and not specialized, and i can see the convenience factor in that you can just use empire wide setting to adjust all worlds and thus save time. But as ap

Hello, i don't know if this came up already but i have a few questions. Is there any plans to introduce zoom feature to tech tree? Is there any plans to make it so the first thing you see when clicking on technology button is tech tree? If not could you possibly optimize the location of the tech tree button? Because

Where is the ability to zoom in and out in tech tree? Also let players choose in options what kind of screen they want to look at first when clicking on Technology button. I always want to look at tech tree not that other useless window that pops up first, so i have to make 2 times as many clicks to get to the thing i want to see.

Who was that guy on GC3 development team who sat during one of brainstorming sessions and said "Colony building adjacency bonuses!". Big props to that guy and to the rest of the team who went with it, this is something i envisioned for the game and really wanted to happen. I just cannot wait for tomorrow to start breaking in the game and contributing to its improvement!

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="97" id="3446241"]I used the exploit myself all the time and didn't want it to go away. [/quote] I feel like someone should make Scumbag Steve meme "Game dev notices exploit in the game" "Does not fix it in order to keep abusing" :) Jokes aside its not a big deal tbh. If anything it actually added to the game, because if a new player discovers this on his own, he can really feel smart-like using it onward.

Hover shiv with all upgrades is pretty amazing. If i am not mistaken it is 90 aim, constant 40 defense(pretty much like running around with high cover), 21 HP, can fly, hits like a heavy plasma. On a map with all crysalids you could just put them all in the air and shoot all day lol. I seriously recommend training roulette. Without it once i have 6 to 8 top level soldiers i just don't bother leveling up new guyz. With this second wave option entire g

I have just finished, Classic ironman with random stats, random stat growth, and random abilities while doing An Army of 4. And i can tell you i had a blast, army of 4 makes the game just the right kind of difficult for me. I find impossible is sadomasochistically painful, and regular classic way to easy, so removing 2 guyz was good idea. Now i am playing with everything above + marathon, E-115, Red Fog, random funding and random awards, enjoying it allot so far.</

I might be the minority her, but i think color coding planets by quality should be done like Item quality in RPG games. Grey - Trash - 0 White - Regular - 0-4 Green - Good - 5-9 Blue - Superior - 10-14 Purple - EPIC - 15+ For me green is associated with good enough, while blue color reminds me of earth and since its a 10 it will match, and because of WoW and other clones purple will forever be imprinted in my h

Reprograming drones is called "Drone Capture" if i am not mistaken. But my expert opinion is don't waste your time with it, it just not that useful. Yeh the scope upgrade is bugged i remember before the expansion it actually mentioned the crit buff. Now its "invisible" but does actually work. Same goes for Psi armor, it actually increases the speed by 2 and defense by 10 but does not mention it in description. Also combat stims can be used 2 times althoug

Scope Upgrade gives a +10% critical chance, so after upgrading your scope will give +10 hit and +10crit and not +20hit if that what you thought, the only way to notice extra crit is by observing it during combat and comparing to the observations before the upgrade. There is no upgrade that grants a capability to capture any robotic enemy, there is only Drone Capture project that will let you reprogram drones to fight for you for the rest of the battle and there is Improved Arc Thrower

I red something about removing units of measurements and i completely disagree. I feel that they ad a level of depth, and represent the magnitude of your empire knowing that you have 10k billion credits or that you just loaded an armada of dropships with billions of soldiers and most of them are about to die in some planetary scale warfare is awesome!!! Also i saw a screenshot (not in the PDF) where there is planetary ADJACENCY BONUSES(woohoo) i

I never heard of this game before but after watching 2 videos and looking at some screenshots i can say that it looks like some kind of AMAZING Civ and HoMM3 hybrid 4x game. The thing that gets me most hard is the fact that i saw some HEXES (You hear that whoever made the last 2 HoMM games, you lazy office chimps?!!). Also the fact that its not sci-fi and i like it, is a sign that this is an amazing game!

I have played something like 150 hours mostly in ironman, and i can tell you that there is no way to name a save file. The only way to tell one game from another is by the marker that indicates game number. So lets say i play my first game without ironman mode then all the saves i make along the way will be marked Game:1, then i start a new game and make a save all those saves will be marked Game: 2 and so on. Because i restart ALLOT(to try to get soldiers with best possible s
