Reply to Ask your QA here and hope Oxide will answer them in Ashes of the Singularity GalCiv3 Forums

I have a question! In the lore it says the AIs split for the PHs when they started converting even other sentiments. Which leads me to my question: Will we encounter indigenous units/ populations on the various maps as background actors who can't hope to interfere with the advanced combatants?

Reply to Economic Balance needed for Immense galaxies in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I still say there needs to be a main slider when you start a game, make the economy hard [how it is now] or make it easy [how it was in beta 3]. Its the only reasonable idea, i mean some people seem to like the challenge while others hate it in all ways. [im in the second camp, i hate it XD]

Reply to ok time to start a list of bugs for beta 4 in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Ok, i think there needs to be a slider for economy and upkeep. the bottom being Beta 3 economy and the top being the economy as it is now in beta 4.

Reply to bad economy in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Ok, i normaly dont pipe up on anything but i agree with this...The economy is HELL now, they need to switch it back to Beta 3 standards NOW. :)

Personally, i think the phase gates should be available from tech two and then have the speed increase with tech levels instead of cost. Also i have to say that the evacuator needs a new model.

Eet: No. There, you have your answer and it was simple

I beg to differ, bombers are useless against it if you have: A: a defense fleet with ONE flak frig B: 1 or 2 hangers with a few fighter wings to kill said bombers

I like Lordkosc's idea as well but i think 20-30 are pushing it, i would probably go for a lower number like 12-15 because thats the size of fleets i make, about 3-4 line ships, a command cruiser, some carriers, LRM or 2 and the cap ship as the heavy heavy hitter

Reply to Losing a cap in a small game is too punishing. in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

yes, the loss of a capital ship in a small game CAN be crippling, but that just is an incentive to surround it with, lets face it, cannon fodder ships, or jump in your smaller ships first then jump in the heavy hitter, i constantly jump cobalts in then my Kodiak's then perchans and finally my cap ships. Though i have lost my main cap ship a few times but came back to win the fight, mostly because i have the Akkan and it isn't my main line ship...

Reply to Capitol Ship Limits in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Realism? what about this game is strictly real, and how do you figure that the system is realistic? no offense Why would you NEED 6 whole colony's to support a capital ship, if we were being realistic you could probably support about 2-3 capital ships per planetary colony and maybe half to a whole capital ship per asteroid colony.

Hehe i could just imagine watching through the view of your lead fighter as it takes a shot of flack right in the face

Reply to IDEA: Pirates in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Hmmm another idea [i mentioned before] is to give the Pirates a mobile pirate [or merc if that is going to be their new name] base. Let it be bigger than the largest cap ship with production facility. and have jump inhabiter immunity so that it can move through systems randomly

Reply to IDEA: Pirates in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Anyway, I don't like the idea of pirates having capital ships. Pirates are known for their hide and sneak attacks, not for building huge armies of huge ships. From what I have seen their forces are already very strong and people give bounties just for the pirates - which misses the original point of the bounty completely. Yah, pirates should not have cap ships...and they should not mass fleets to randomly do

Reply to IDEA: Pirates in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

And you didnt address my other idea where the researchers do it them selves when they realise they wont be able to stop the pirates?

Reply to somethings i have noticed in beta3b in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

im at the zoom point where you can see the gravity well and all the individual ships in it by icons, if you try to order them somewhere in the gravity well they will assume its a jump command.

Reply to somethings i have noticed in beta3b in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I have noticed that too, i have to be very close to order them in a gravity well or they will jump to the nearest other gravity well...

Reply to Small Complaint in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

i think the only AI i have EVER seen move to a new system was the pirates, i cant recall ever seeing anything else jump to the system i occupied after i got it...

Reply to Small Complaint in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I know i personally stopped playing the bigger maps in favor of one system but lots of planets because of this problem...

Reply to IDEA: Pirates in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Or just give them incredibly powerful system defenses, like maybe a few gauss cannons that can tear a line frigate apart in one hit that reaches to the jump in point?

Reply to IDEA: Pirates in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Unless the infiltration teams upload viruses to destroy any traces of that technology, they they would have to backwards engineer what they had known from something they have on hand. Thus where the idea of having it quicker and only half priced comes in above? OR there could be chances involved, the infiltration team gets it and jumps away and the research stays OR the infiltration team fails and the researchers destroy the information before the enemy could get it?

Reply to Small Complaint in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I agree with Op,its one of my pet peeves about random big maps, i wanted to have BIG fights with REAL solar empires, not a bunch of small sides bickering over one system then moving onto the other 4 empty systems..?

Reply to Capital Ships Keep Spinning To Select New Targets in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I really dont mind when fighters and bombers accellerate ahead oftheir parent ships to soften targets, i have won fights because my bombers reached the enemy first, coems down to one ship on one and i have like 12 hp left on that one ship lol

Reply to AI Ideas in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I mean that will the beams target secondary foes if the primary is in their range but not in their arc, while it is turning etc.\ (secondary targets being random enemy units NOT targeted specifically by the player, that ship being the primary target)

Reply to Research - forcing diversification in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I also suppose there can be a middle ground, make the research free with time but the more money and crystal you pump into it the faster you get results, so at max things take, 5-10 min to research EACH but they are free, where as they take like current time 30 sec-1 min if you pump the current amount of resources into it
