So I'm playing Stellaris and I've finally gotten a nice starting position. The problem is, like with most games I start, there are fucking hostiles everywhere. They are like the barbarians in CIV5, I fucking HATE them, because I just wan't to build my empire quietly.
Did I somehow miss the 'Disable Hostiles' checkbox? Is there one? FUCK

just kill them you retard, they give research
also there is a general for this
They're mostly docile and sedentary. They act as gatekeepers for select star systems. Few will migrate, and few will even pursue in system.
Just build some critters become debris generators once you get shields and a 700+ fleet.
Just don't shoot the space cows. They tend to harass you for the rest of the game with missing stations and alerts.

This game is the reason I will never buy another Paradox game.

>just kill them you retard, they give research
Holy Mammalian, why haven't I thought of this?
I want them to not even show up, retard.
>also there is a general for this
I'm not reading 720+ posts that may or may not contain the info I'm looking for
Just go and kill them. They give you research, special weapon tech and if you get lucky enough to meet red crystal elites you'll get the best armour tech in the game.

you can ask there you special snowflake
now fuck off

Git Gud you fucking scrub. They're part of the game and a somewhat important part as they give you exclusive tech. It also forces you to build a strong navy early on which is good for plebs like yourself.

From this thread, it appears you are not.
>>340063345
I tried to play EU4 but I just couldn't make it.
Stellaris is more like Civ, and it really could do without barbarians.
>>340064126
what? my first post was about how its the only game i bought from paradox
>>340063417
THIS is the stellaris audience
>>340064252
Barbarians are shit in civ.
In stellaris they don't do much other than keeping some systems off limits until you get a stronger navy.
build like 5 ships with shields and improved thrusters and you can kill like 90% of them.
