Sounds pretty cool, but I'd also agree that it should be more of a DLC thing. I would rather they focus on the things that affect gameplay first.

[quote who="Gaunathor" reply="23" id="3455136"] Quoting 12cfoster, reply 22No, there are some descriptions for alpha techs. Fate is correct. I just researched the Life Support techs in my game. None of them had a proper description. I even looked in the game-files, just to make sure, that I didn't misremember something.[/quote] Well, I remembered seeing it in the tooltip for the tech, but now it appears that the tooltip is for the sensor tech, a bug.

Considering how big space is in the first place, I find it more awkward that there is something in the way that I can't go around. If you want water or soemthing to be an obstacle play Civ with no boats.

I can't play the game yet due to bugs and I still don't mind paying the $99. Guess what? You don't have to pay, you can wait. I paid that much, not because of the 'free stuff', but because I like the company.

Same issue, turning off GelUI, Enable Bloom, and Ambient Occlusion options in the Graphics settings removes the white boxes, but leaves no background or other objects aside from the tooltips and side menu. This is with my graphics card off, using only the integrated graphics. Turning on the card results in immediate crash after the intro movie.

I'm just going to point out that right now they don't have plans for this. Not that they never will add hot seat. There is such a thing as trying to implement too many new features at once. Especially if a problem is bigger than you thought it would be.

I routinely play long games where I reach the end of the tech tree. I play on Immense, abundant planets and stars, tight clusters, very slow research, and I gave every race a -250% range penalty and de-emphasized the life support techs a bit. This makes your initial range about the size of your homeworld's influence. However, the thing about simply adding more techs is that you will reach the end of those too, and then want more. Instead, I'd rather have s
