MP issues out the yin yang. Turns are dreadfully slow. The chat box is so low that you can't see what you're typing and is otherwise messed up.

 

Weird "Shafer Button" issues, too. Weren't working all the time.

 

Beginning to worry that it may not be ready by the 14th...

Mo is going to be iffy right until release unfortunately. We have to test with our internal builds which means the data you're playing with might be slightly out of sync.

Seems my 6.1 game does not work anymore. Diplomacy screen is crashing but with a new game No crashes so far. :)

Still Bugs that made the game unplayable. Diplomacyscreen crashes, Planetaryinvsion if more as one at the same time hangs up with message waiting for players.

Maybe you should not to start all events at once? Just step by step. Is one event solved/closed like an invasion then got to the next event.

Huh...now the game is crashing for me when generating a new map. Loading maps from a saved file works fine.

If you do experience a crash, please make sure you send us the crash report.

theyre on your /program data/Stardock/GalCiv3 folder. Just the .ziP. Makes a huge difference.

So Campaign won't be available before release?

That's been a NO! since the beginning. They want to keep some things secret even from us elite founders.
