So is this game the third major expansion that original Elemental purchasers get for free?

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="1" id="3497517"] It's not all bad. It's really odd to see people thinking we're trying to "sneak" Sorcerer King as "new IP". It's the third game in the Elemental universe. [/quote] I don't think that's obvious from the released material so far. Maybe if it was called 'Elemental: Sorcerer King'...
Brad's just trolling...he's referring to the Political Machine 2015. [e digicons]^_^[/e]
[quote]Our biggest, most ambitious project ever is not announced yet. It’ll likely be announced as CES 2015. This team is a combo of people who worked on Sins of a Solar Empire, Galactic Civilizations, Civilization V and LOTR: Battle for Middle Earth. It’ll require 64-bit and need Mantle/DirectX 12 to really shine. We haven’t even hinted about this game yet in any form so don’t bother to try to guess. It’s something completely new. <b

My preferred screen moving method is clicking and holding with the mouse button, and moving the screen around. I hate edge scrolling. The method GC3 uses is the same as GC2, which I like.
"Can someone please confirm one way or the other on whether this game will/does require steam? It doesn't say on the purchase site, the requirements or faq. I refuse to install steam for any game. I just want to know if this game is one I will never be able to buy and play or not. thanks to anyone able to answer." Funny, I'll pretty much only buy a game if I can activate it in my Steam
I'm hoping that there are many summary and statistic screens coming.
retail store?
In the dev stream, Paul said that they were fixing that.
There may be too many colonizing events, I seem to remember while playing GC2, seeing them on maybe every 4th or 5th colonized planet. I get them now on all...?

click and hold with the middle mouse button.
Is there a quick save yet?
[quote who="EleventhStar" reply="4" id="3486672"] especially on shipyards, can't stop making ships unless i remove all sponsors. [/quote] I'm not home, so I can't check, but can't you set the build que to 'none'...?
Re: the ideology tree, I would like to be able to click, hold and drag the screen left and right, like you can do with the research tree.
[quote who="Rhonin_the_wizard" reply="17" id="3486420"] Quoting abiessener, reply 16 Population Pressure means your pop is nearing your food cap, aka your planet is getting more crowded, which lowers approval. The idea as I understand it is to create some tension between building up your core worlds and settling
And like a chump, I'm working from 7AM straight through to 11PM... want...play
You people complaining about not getting keys, you didn't take care of this before now? Who did you contact in support? Did you attempt to fix the situation before beta release day?
[quote who="parrottmath" reply="74" id="3486144"] Yes, that is true those starbases didn't move... but the Death Star did. [/quote] You've got me on the Death Star. I guess I just personally like my space stations staying put.
[quote who="angryandroid" reply="72" id="3486129"] If the star port can move, moving the star bases also makes sense. How far they can move and how fast is another matter. Interesting thread so far. [/quote] That's another problem with SP's moving, it opens a slippery slope to SB's moving. And that's ridiculous. THEY AREN'T SHIPS. Did Babylon 5 zip around the galaxy? Did Deep Space 9?
[quote who="Traxto" reply="24" id="3486121"] Not cool. Not cool at all. So I guess I've missed my chance then, just for 1 day. [/quote] I have to agree, I thought they'd have more of a warning.
[quote who="admiralWillyWilber" reply="60" id="3486019"] Please do not rush diplomacy. I say the better the diplomacy the better the game. [/quote] Agreed.
[quote who="qrtxian" reply="53" id="3485905"] I have to say, I'm not that excited about this - for me, 4X games lose a lot without diplomacy. [/quote] I feel similar. I am still excited to play it though.
