The reason cloaked ships haven't made it in the game yet according to past posts from Dev's, is that there are many AI issues with cloaked ships that they haven't ironed out. They decided to work on other things instead.
The United Planets comes up and works after you meet 50% of the factions. This can take several hundred turns on the largest of maps with the max AI...
[quote who="pshaw" reply="8" id="3656130"] We gotten reports of this in the past, but haven't been able to repro. Any information you could provide would be helpful. Thanks [/quote] Just playing a new MP game started after 1.83 it happens with about 1 in 5 star bases, prior to this I hadn't noticed since about 1.6 or so. I have the saved game and can provide screenshots but, it shouldn't be that hard to reproduce. I currently have about 30
The "Yesterday" option in the forum chat states this for any post that takes place up to 48 hours prior to the current time. For instance Right now it is 12:32 PM 10/29, I'm seeing yesterday flags from posts on posts made after 1 PM on 10/27. It seems there needs to be a correction done to how the forum sees something as being "yesterday" Thank you.
I would go the opposite way. Add an upgrade to all the resource buildings that increase the worlds production by 200% in that resource when upgraded at a resource cost. Then to offset the balance, decrease the benefit of economic starbases... Help eliminate the starbase spam throughout the galaxy, either that or cap the star base improvement to be at 400% versus the current 700% normal amount that can be accomplished on most planets now...
[quote who="Mystikmind" reply="3" id="3655683"] They get stuck in limbo when i cannot chose the starbase type i want because the correct type is not available because of having to wait another turn for range extension..... and then of course i forget and the starbase sits abandoned ..... damn i hate having to wait for range extension, such a pain in the arse. [/quote] I still don't think we're on the same page I'll have to create a screenshot when I get a chance.
[quote who="Mystikmind" reply="1" id="3655570"] Not sure i get what you mean? [/quote] When a star base has an available constructor module ready to build a module to the star base there is a little red icon that appears on the main map next to the star base indicating that it can be upgraded immediately. This is what I'm saying is showing now sometimes even when no constructor modules are available at the star base currently.
In the 1.83 update I've noticed more and more where starbases are continuing to show that they can be upgraded with the upgrade indicator when no docked constructors are avail. If one attempts to build another module it adds it to que. The modules are single point build modules so it's not a multipoint issue. Has anyone else seen this?
Love this idea, it's different than anything we've seen yet. Great suggestion.

[quote who="Island Dog" reply="2" id="3655514"] Mostly because the team is really hard at work on the expansion, but as of right now I can't speak much about it. [/quote] Are we going to have any new DLC's between now and then? Can you say that? Thanks
Good Morning Stardock, It's been a while since we've seen anything on this front, based on Steam's release calendar it shows almost 2 months since anything new. Is there anything coming soon, prior to the release of the expansion and if so can we get a hint of what? (examples New Factions, New ship parts, New game feature) Personally I'd really love something that provides extra ideology points for MP games as once planets are gone the player is
They used to do this, not sure why they stopped.

Yes, Get GalCiv III :)

[quote who="General Pants" reply="19" id="3652158"] So, if I buy a cable package that says I can "watch over 100 channels," I emphatically do not expect to have to make up all the content on every channel for myself, and it I certainly do not expect to have to rely on crowd-sourcing to make a feature work. [/quote] Not a true comparison, one can not add or think about adding channels to their cable or sat provider. More of a comparison would be like purchasing a roku

[quote who="General Pants" reply="15" id="3652122"] They should not advertise a feature and then depend on crowd-sourcing to fulfill the "promise." Or, they should have made it more clear that a significant portion of the game was going to be crowd-sourced. If they are going to do that anyway, the very least they could do is provide us with a few new factions, especially ones they have already more than half created for DLC. I should not have to spend months (lit
[quote who="Mystikmind" reply="7" id="3652042"] On the one hand, production being so money hungry in galciv2 used to frustrate me, but on the other hand somehow the game flowed much easier than galciv3? [/quote] I enjoyed the economics system in GalCiv II more than GalCiv III. It just seems in GalCiv III if you don't build a map full of economic starbases you find yourself behind as it's needed to boost your output on every aspect of the game. Hopefully i

I feel that's it's constructor based more than anything because by building economic starbases around a planet one can increase production on a planet by as much as 700% in Manufacturing, Research and Economic... If instead they increased the amount that each building did and cut that down by a factor of 7 it wouldn't be as needed.
