"Look at the release version, pretty good, would still room for improvement. Look ta version 1.1, the first major patch. People will see the huge difference and improvements." "Individuals are smart, people can act very stupidly" Just a quote I remember while discussing mob mentality. Having two different demos would, more than likel
Thanks Roadkill. Unfortunately the list is for 1.0 and several more were added in 1.1.
Frogboy is off on vacation for 9 days. Betcha a quarter you'll have to wait....
Wait, wait, wait, wait..... There's a UPer comment in the user manual? edit: you mean now I'm going to have to read the manual?
IIRC you can't break an alliance with a minor race. I've never made an alliance with a minor race so don't know if trying to attack them would work.
This is difficult during the early game because you need to spend on growth, but have no tax base. By mid game you have a tax base and things get easier. The entertainment buildings are a must. There are other strategies, but as a general rule, 1:1 ratio between entertainment buildings and farms (ie: a farm on a 300% bonus tile would still need 3 entertainment buildings). Morale resource starbases are another way to help keep people happy as are the various trade goods that become
You have a point. I doubt the demo is 1.1 since it came out before 1.1 was released.
im not in the least bit suggesting that units on guard should TAKE action and launch an auto attack seems to me they are the 'cops' , and there for it would fall to them to take actions that the 'cops' would take,
The mods directory will be a big part of 1.2
To restate...making sure I undertand your complaint: 1) 1.0x didn't give as many planets as you'd like with the Abundant setting. 2) The Betas gave you a lot more. 3) 1.1 release is giving you more than 1.0x, but less than the Betas. You see, "Beta" in programming means "test." That is why they warn you the game may be unstable, etc if you install it. As a "test" version they will also evaluate game play tweaks and adjustments like the number of habitable planet
This forum has a fair bit of complaints and notices of problems, but that's primarily because if the game works a person isn't spending time on the forum extolling the virtues of Stardock. They are busy playing. Also, the game just went through 4 (5?) public betas between the original and the patch. There's tons of bug reports, etc stemming f
They've started a special thread just for this problem: Link It is odd that I never encountered this in any of the 1.1 betas, but did encounter it within the first 3 hours of playing 1.1 final.

Even Frogboy has said this is the first priority for 1.2. *************** I missed where he said that then #11 by Frogboy [Stardock] Wednesday, April 26, 2006 10:08 AM BTW, this is our
I've never heard of Steve Rose's Strategy Guide and so am unfamiliar with which econ and research strategy advantages it is referring to.
If they really had 60,000 population (60 billion IIRC?) then even with the best invastion tech it would probably take several attempts to conquer the planet. The first invasion tect gives you 500 (500,000?) troops per module. The Advanced tech gives you 1000 per module, or 1 billion troops per module and they fight a lot better with more invasion options. The Shock Troops tech, even more so. However, if the planet really did have just 60,000 and your 500,000 lost, then th
Such a person is often accused of flaming as a result of finding fault with minor details of other participants' messages, and often only in opinions with which the accused grammar nazi disagrees.

But instead, I notice my planet jumps to a class 13! When I go in and see, lo and behold i have 13 usable tiles??? the PQ of a planet is the number of usable tiles. before any soil enhancement, habitat improvement, or terraforming that planet was a pq10 world. After all of those it could easily jump to 15...depending on the planet. Choosing
Ah yeah. Well, look at it this way. At least you didn't build a Maginot Line. ...and think it would work against something besides horse.

Even Frogboy has said this is the first priority for 1.2. 3 years ago a dual 3g processor with 1 g ram and a Radeon 9800 pro 128 was a good system. After having to upgrade a computer every year I guess I should be happy that this one has lasted 3 years...and will probably last 4 before any real upgrading needs done.

Playing through the beta evolution has "fixed" my starting strategy as well. Absolutely needing a population....or rather needing to moderate your expansion to maintain your population is an effective throttle. I live and die by those 2500bc anomalies during the beginning game. If it weren't for them I'd probably go bankrupt. I always play on gigantic maps so I'm not sure if you can notice this on smaller maps.... the AI's never build a second survey ship. I'll try to researc
No. I've never gotten a bonus tile from soil enhancement, habitat improvement, or terraforming.
if you didn't care, you wouldn't post in this thread at all. Did you even read the post? Did the presence of those specific quotes get completely ignored by you? The game text doesn't matter, I'm not going to rant about how I demand poor syntax. I will try and explain my position to the grammar Nazis, I will try and talk s
Just dont try and use it for Metaverse Games or you may get a Zero score as Stardock dont allow it YET That's the main reason I'm only recently starting a metaverse game. I have to admit after a month of using the mod, ship design just isn't the same in metaverse.
Actually I survived long enough to research miniturization heavily and the logistics branch to the point I had one more ship in my fleet than the DL did. I did my best to attack first and I was able to steal one tech from sneaking a transport onto one of their newly conquered planets.... it was one of the more powerful torpedoes. I remember thinking it was odd because the DL wasn't using missle based weapons. But I didn't complain.
