What's that?
So if you want massive amounts of breeding you want to take Rapid Breeders + Agrarian traits and have fanatic pacifists, right?
Thats 40% less growth time and 20% more food, you cant get a better start can you?
>>144718528
Autism.

>>144718874
Will rare minerals be stored like normal ones?
Also can you make food global? Instead there could be buildings/structure that increase pop growth(like clone vats or urban centre).
I'm hyped for claim fabrication in Civ:VI

That's the idea.
So certain weapons could require special types of minerals that you can stock up on.

>>144725350
What do you mean with this ?
>>144724461
Civ 6 is sounding great, anon. There will be claim fabrication, trade routes that build roads, no silly workers just standing around for 1000 years, lots of unique tile stuff that gets benefits from certain adjacent tiles, plus stuff I'm probably forgetting.
nth for Fanatic Collectivist stronk. Who doesn't like free minerals and faster growth?

>>144725350

>>144726256
if trade were actual trade like in rising tide, and you didn't build any "internal" structures in cities anymore, and the AI made capable at 1upt combat, it could be really good
but for every improvement it seems they're taking a step back, civics research tree wtf?
>>144726482
OH! And no global happiness and religion is a thing right off the bat with no waiting for DLC.
Plus the visuals, though cartoony when zoomed in, are supposed to look very good when zoomed out at the usual distance.
I'm optimistic.
You were supposed to be my ravenous hordes! Why have you done this?
>>144726824
Whelp... Time to purge.
>>144726730
I don't mind the graphics, literally the most pointless thing to get asshurt about
it's just they're taking steps to de-spreadsheet and de-abstract the game, but they'll only go halfway, and add more abstract bullshit like the civics tree, and it'll take at least another decade before they fully realize the true paradigm

iktf
>>144727187I'm not him but I knew using that phrase would trigger someone
First time I actually came across them in all my games so far - so that explains who that is spreading communications with other nations. I like the design and idea of the Space Ark that they have, and kind of wish I could build all my ships looking like that like I kind of did with Polaris Sector's ship designer (the spinning ring around the center of the ship).
I don't know why they're bombarding a sun, however. Maybe that's how they 'refuel' to continue their endless wander?
>>144726824
This is one of the main problems with playing a Militaristic species - if you colonise a Tomb World with a Militaristic species, they'll look at the war-torn world and go 'actually, war really is a bad idea after all' and turn into Fanatic Pacifists. No other edict I know of suffers from colonising a Tomb World.
>>144727484
Thing is, the cockroaches were the original inhabitants of the tomb world (I sent my droids). They've been living there since forever and when I come they suddenly decide "you know what guys, this place is real shitty" and turn pacifist. Pre-sentient xenos are weird.
>>144726730
>no global happiness
There was nothing wrong with that. The problem is a buttfuck retarded AI, which they "compensated" by giving ridiculous bonuses, so it could spam shitty cities in every possible tile without penalties, but taking them would dip the player into unhappiness.
>are supposed to look very good when zoomed out at the usual distance.
I wouldn't call http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/289070/ss_cf53258cb8c4d283e52cf8dce3edf8656f83adc6.jpg very good. It will be even more clusterfucked in later eras, for sure.
Funny they've changed store screenshots from over-saturated zoom-ins to panned view with less post-processing shit. Guess rigorous reaction on forums didn't go unnoticed.
>>144726885
>I don't mind the graphics, literally the most pointless thing to get asshurt about
That's why civ games with every iteration become increasingly more detailed, because graphics doesn't matter, amirite?
>>144727749
civ 6 doesn't look bad, have you been keeping up? minimalism is the in thing right now
>>144727749
I disagree with everything you just said.
Global happiness made no sense and took away one more aspect of city management. Your complaints about the AI are ignorant. They could have easily improved the AI. There are mods for it out right now. They went with bonuses because no one wants to wait fucking 10 minutes just for all the AIs to complete their turn. Instead they give bonuses to approximate what a smarter AI would do, and I appreciate that.
>>144727826
Did you even read what I wrote? It doesn't look good either (compared to EL), but the point is later eras get increasingly more clusterfucked, no "minimalism" will solve it.
>>144727947
>I disagree with everything you just said.
Of course you do, because you are a retarded shill, who didn't even play civ5 in the first place.
>Global happiness made no sense and took away one more aspect of city management.
What aspect exactly? Can't ICS right off the bat? Or we don't have examples of IRL empires falling down due to over-expanding?
>Your complaints about the AI are ignorant.
How to spot a shill 101: he tries to take a high ground.
>They could have easily improved the AI.
That's why they didn't improve it even a little in BE, right?
>They went with bonuses because no one wants to wait fucking 10 minutes just for all the AIs to complete their turn.
The biggest offender in my CBP (which has a built-in smarter AI) games was recalculation of city-connections of my cities (which was taking longer than all AI player turns combined). Vanilla game game had similar slowdowns, but shorter. So shove "but muh AI turns" up your ass, because it "complexity" doesn't affect turn length much, unless you have ADHD.
>Instead they give bonuses to approximate what a smarter AI would do, and I appreciate that.
Shitting cities without regards to global unhappiness = smarter play? Last time I checked all smart players were going Tradition + 4 cities set-up for almost any game.
Fastest way to win a war if i suck at manouvering troops? even if i split fleets they always seem to outmanouver me and take planets behind my back while my main force can't catch up with them.
>>144728808
What are you, twelve?
>>144729098
just go straight for their homeworld. Their fleets usually come back and then you can fight it out. After go capture their planets
>chasing fleets around
>ever
also if you have a massive navy, split fleets so you can bombard multiple planets at once. bombarding/blockading gives a lot of warscore.
>>144727749
That fog of war look nice
civfags fuck off
>>144729098
Actually only playing with hyperlanes can also fix this.
Wormholes do really fuck wars up in late game.
>>144727116
they're moving things out of numbers, icons and menus and onto the game board, how is that not both?

>literally the most common element in the universe
>>144730009
Aren't wormholes the best to get to ponts faster in the late game though?
>>144730453
I don't know I never used wormholes but the AI can really fuck shit up if you don't counter them with your own wormholes.
>>144730254
>>144730281
lol, damn this game is buggy
>>144730695
I just hope it wasn't designed like that on purpose.
>>144727826
There's a difference between minimalism and mobile tier graphics. They could have pushed civ 5's aesthetic even further by making the game cel shaded art deco following the style of the portraits. Instead they just made it look like a step backwards.
>>144730839
so weird being on a defending war with someone im also at war with

Welp, kinda narrowed down the FE bug to a few mods. It's either the extra events mod, star trek anomalies, the belt mod, or the trader mod.

>>144733132
war was really never designed to be between more than 2 parties I don't think
>>144733240
WW2 is quite old meme anyway. No one fucking cares about WW2 games, unless it's something hyperbolic like the new Wolfenstein.
>>144730175
Therea usually something guaranteeing something without you knowing.
In one of my games i was flanked by 3 alliances. One empire in one alliance somehow guarantees one from another so any war against one alliance would brig the other in
>>144733418
Well they couldnt even get hoi3 to work properly so theres that
>>144720108
I like this because I didnt instantly jump to a real life equivalent.
So a scientist in my materials empire got the psionics expertise trait.
I heard materialists have a hard time rolling psi tech, will it now be a more common roll or is the trait essentially useless?
>>144735493
It makes psi research more likely
>'balanced' 1000-star ring galaxy
>'upgraded' planets mod for more planets per system
>can't survey or construct fast enough, even with 4 each of survey and construction ships
I think this may have been a mistake.
yo!
someone here said i can add traits yo synths by console commands. but when i enter "add_trait_species synthetics trait_conformists" console says trait added but i cant see any change in my synths.
any ideas?
>>144735493
Materialist cannot roll psi tech without a scientist with psi trait. Probability is literally zero without one.
Now you may roll it.

>>144733418
I hope hoi 4 flops hard so that they drop it and concentrate on stellaris.
Is it better to have multiple smaller sectors, or one large one?
At the moment iv dropped about half my empire into a single sector
>>144736757
2 sectors if you have a governor with +science trait and fully developed science worlds
otherwise no point
>>144733240
I'm assuming "they went public" means they became a publicly traded company. Most companies like to be the only ones to release those numbers.
>>144737020
Hm thats a good idea
Bit late now for me, iv stuck with my five main worlds and just mass expanded to any world I could and dropped them all into one sector and let the AI sort it out. Should have planned it better and made a few planets science based then sectored it.
Oh well, thanks anon for the idea

I never went to gsg so I don't know how those guys are but since I came here I heard that gsg hated this general.

Why is the research hit by increased pops so heavy?
>>144746883
>their size in relation to yours
Just blob
>their distance
Start with you neighbours and work one.
>your fleet power
well as I said ,you need a big gun to convince them they need protection
>their tech level
not a problem for my empire
>their ethics
As long as they're not xenophones its doable with time
>their threat level
Never was a problem for me.
I am not saying its easy but its not impossible to diploannex
>>144747313
Oh its you top kek
>actually believing core planet limit has any impact on being abke to blob
>>144740730
Erm... Were you here at launch? It was and still is a bit of a curates egg
Sure I like the game but it has a fair few glaring flaws
>>144747501
I never said it was impossible either, you just cant engineer it peacefully, either they can be a vassal or not
What ethos build synths are?
>>144747727
but you can engineer it by blobing out, vassalizing your way up from small fish and snowballing slowly
>>144748198
>you can engineer vassaling by vassaling
Wut
>>144747501
Not him but, funny that by the time I had a full fledge fleet they all thought me as a tyrant.
>>144748396
I invaded a nearby species and enslaved them for the first time.
I got an erection.
What's your favourite Stellaris sountrack?
Mine's either Luminescence or Infinite Being
>>144747406
uPlay never fucking works and is merely DRM
Origin is fine from my limited experience, but the store could definitely use some reworking
>>144749148
I have had less problems with uplay than steam, which is also just drm
it's all the same shit
>tfw your planet is a fucking pile of shit but the drugs make it all go away
>>144749148
Uplay also forces its DRM on single-player games and is prone to crashing.
>>144748983
To the ends if the galaxy is the best imo.
To me it sounds exactly how sci fi music should sound.
Played Stellaris for ten hours or so on launch. Haven't touched it since. What has been fixed? What hasn't been fixed?
>>144749216
Humble (muh DRM free games) > GMG > Steam = unlicensed key sites > Origin > Best Buy > Uplay = Gamestop©. Gamestop©, Power to the Players.©
Welp, good news for anyone who have the Fallen Empire bug, after some flicking of mods on and off, the culprit is most likely The Belt mod.
Unless I have to regenerate the entire galaxy each time I test the mod, it's probably the culprit.
For those wondering, the FE bug is the one where a FE won't contact you even if your science ship's already scanned their homeworld. They won't make a first contact special project either.
>>144749626
>steam better than origin
$1 has been added to your steam wallet
>>144749626
anything drm free > steamclones > gamestop > steam
reason being steam is more price gouging than gamestop
rule #1 of buying from steam: don't.
it's ALWAYS cheaper somewhere else
>>144749789
>game with an actual variety of choices is better than EA only
If Origin had more games it'd be better
>>144749898
there's non-EA games on origin, witcher 3 for example
>>144749303
The UI is still shit but they made a little better
>>144749898
with that argument how can you rate humble bundle and GMG better than steam then?.
the only platform with more games than steam is a torrent tracker.
>>144749303
>steam singleplayer games don't have DRM
>>144750071
the great thing about uplay is that the cheevos actually matter because you can unlock free shit with them and they're front and center, where in steam and origin it's some totally useless bs hidden away where nobody will ever see it
they kinda recreated that XBL feeling of importance to cheevos so you actually want to bother trying to get them
>>144750114
>humble bundle
Humble has a store, where have you been
>>144750319
>not living under a rock
fucking redditors ree
>>144750319
>buying games from the overpriced store
which would rate GMG and keysites above humble bundle which have the same if not bigger libs while being cheaper.
>try to edit save to drop my increased border range back to 20
>can't without the save breaking
REEEEEEE
>>144749461
yes
>>144749461
basically nothing, the AI has been made ever so slightly better
fighters are no longer useless, and the 100% accuracy bug is fixed
>>144749461
Crisis events got fixed didn't they?
They nerfed corvettes into the ground
>>144751084
Don't know about the machine uprising but the scourge and unbidden expand now but after some time the AI manages to check their advance.
>>144726824
Turks aren't pacifists.
>>144751568
We are pretty peaceful now though.
>>144740730
>HOI4's release has been a total disaster and shipped out a broken, unfinished, and just plain bad game
So it's the same as every Paradox launch.
>>144750271
Steam game won't be terminated if the client loses connection.
>the great thing about uplay is that the cheevos actually matter because you can unlock free shit with them and they're front and center, where in steam and origin it's some totally useless bs hidden away where nobody will ever see it
>mfw ubidrones can't spend a second without grinding some form of currency.
Besides, Uplay cheevos pop-up in the middle of a screen without a way to disable them. Absolutely fucking cancer.
>>144751858
depends completely on the game
>>144751690
> Beginning of the game
> Get cultists
> Get pirates
> Have to spend most of my shit on building a big enough fleet to take them all on
> Meanwhile everyone else has been free to spend their shit on taking anything just outside my borders
>>144751997
What depends? Steam stopping the game or annoying cheevos?
>>144752021
Kurds are a bigger thread to turkey than ISIS ever will be.
>>144752173
Threat* I mean.
>>144752173
that's a big thread
>>144752173
>>144752272
Which means Turkey is as big a threat to the civilized world as ISIS.
Ultimately, the only logical solution is complete removal of the kebap.
>>144741365
>Tencent owns 5%
> New owners of Paradox
>>144752021
The Turks are a shit people that should be gassed desu
Remove kebab
>>144752468
That's retarded tbqh with you senpai.
>>144752173
Turks are a bigger threat to everyone than ISIS will ever be, because ISIS is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Turkroach Enterprises, LLC.
>>144741365
Anyone else hate the chinese btw?
>>144752650
Kek keep being delusional.
>>144752650
Armenians aren't real
Assyrians died thousand year ago
Greeks in response to 4 million turk murdered by Greece
Are Kurds white?
>>144752768
>Armenians aren't real
>>144752842
They are caucasian if you mean that.
>>144752842
No, but they try.
>>144752746
Kek keep funding ISIS - and we'll keep dropping bombs on them.
>>144752842
They're more European than Turks, that's all that really matters

>>144752842
>there are people in this thread right now who believe in genocides in times when everyone was at war with everyone else
I guess cro-magnons are guilty of neanderthal genocide too, amirite?
>>144752942
>implying half the world doesn't fund them already
Don't be so naive faggot terrorist groups get funded by governments all over the world just to change regions on the other side of the world and they surely don't care about casualities on their own civilian populations.
>>144752964
They are the most backwards and population in turkey so again keep being delusional.
