[quote who="Publius of NV" reply="12" id="3554599"] Quoting trims2u, reply 11 Influence doesn't give you Ideology. Sorry, I meant to type ideology, not influence. [/quote] I thought so :P Still, it kinda locks you in to having to go with the building

[quote who="Franco fx" reply="3" id="3554464"] A major flaw IYAM, is that unless you play with a large number of habitable planets, the ideology system stalls and virtually stops in many games. I would think that the ideology choices should be made available on all maps and all habitable planet settings. [/quote] Experiencing this. I'm playing a Large game atm, but with 12 races I only managed to colonize 2 planets. I got my 4th ideology at turn

[quote who="Publius of NV" reply="2" id="3554497"] Klepart and Lantern in my game are minor races, not pirates. Did you defeat them? That would have turned their remaining ships into pirates, but there might be a behavior difference with the regular pirates. [/quote] Yes, I took over their planets with the benevolent 'everything in your Sphere of Influence becomes yours' ideology. (3 colonies to 10 in a turn... the hard part was getting ide

I've just started designing my own ships (well, copying ones I like) and so I've been trying to get the best views of battles. I'm getting very poor results with Cinematic battle mode, unfortunately. Take the following example, [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38S1o2s-Jig[/video] While the view starts out OK (the ship passing by in the foreground is a great shot and the focus on the first player ship to die

Today I've been fighting my way through another Tough galaxy (i.e all enemies on Genius, does that have an effect on pirates?), and am faced with the following pirates: This starbase, which has about 0% chance of survival against that pirate fleet, has been sitting in their 'chilling' spot, 3 hexes south of their own shipyard (you can see it at th

This is something which happened to me twice yesterday, and today I caught it in the act! I've got a dual screen setup and like to watch Let's Plays and the like on my other screen when playing. The game hangs when zooming in a little too far (when ships resolve from strategic icons to actual ships), which makes me generally avoid zooming in; but of course, I'm forever zooming slighty too far for precise control, causing these lockups. What I noticed was that when this

Hello guys, I'm new to the game, just played a few matches so far, today I joined up with a 2v2v2 Entrenchment game that took some setting up, but oh well. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=URLXBBQO I'm dark green It went pretty well I think, but I have a lot of trouble keeping up when there's a lot of planets involved - splitting my attention all over hte place I always leave something out, either economy or building or teching whatever.

The more people participate in kills the more gold your team gets. The way you guys are talking is just another way of saying: I don't care how much gold the team gets, so long as I get the most gold.

This was a fairly good match to watch. Very good play from Frogboy, which for some reason surprises me a little, thought I have no idea why it should Mystic, no need to be so defensive about your performance. Accept some of the critisism coming your way without deflecting it on the first excuse you come up with eh? Everyone can improve still, plenty of room for it at an early stage of a game's release like this.
