Because they constantly whine and rebel like stupid pieces of shits that they are after I conquer their planets in wars that their own empires started?
I wish there was an option to just tell them to completely fuck off the planet and give them to a planet owned by the losing empire. That planet gets some overpopulation/refugee debuff that drains resources/increases food consumption for some years depending on how many pops you kicked there and that's that.
I kinda wish the Sector Limit +1 technology instead gave you one more core planet instead.
Like there's a use to having more then 3 sectors max.

the biggest problem during the war was enemy fleets waltzing through my territory like through a park, and they gained random +1 warscore increases for hit and run attacks on my main fleet, as well as constantly occupying planets which I would have to take back. Question is, when I inveitably go to war with them again, how do I control their movement and win as fast as possible?

GalCiv3 lacks the efficient planetary management list that GalCiv2 had, making managing anything above 6 planets a massive pain and timesink.
The amount of clicks has increased too, making simple actions from GalCiv2 take twice as long in GalCiv3
It has prettier graphics.
Other then that its near identical to GalCiv2, but without any of the fun stuff that the expacs introduced; so no asteroid mining or terror stars.
I liked the campaign, but that was about it. GalCiv2 was better.

You can just give planets to a governor in GC3 , which is the less retarded way to do automation than sectors in stellaris.Still dont know why the used that retarded, buggy sector mechanic.
Also, the act of using an automated governor doesnt create independence movements like secotrs in stellaris do. Iautomation is both forced on you, and penalized.
Which is why most of us raise the core cap.Between that mod and the auto upgrade one,its a straight improvement to user experience.
>>144888524
224 pops? I forgot about it in the early game since the tech didn't pop up, and I've been going rather hard on terraforming and a 'humans first' policy.
I didn't think it'd be that bad though, the game is still early enough that I've only conquered my three nearest neighbors.
>>144888524
>>144888958
Can I just do them one planet at a time? Or would that count as creating a different species of superhuman each time?
>>144888857
I never use governors, even good ones always break what I'm trying to do

God fucking damn, late game gets boring as fuck with wormholes. You have to wait months for a fleet to move from system to system. Fuck this gay shit.

Stellaris doesn't have one, so it is better.
Having something like that for Stellaris would be great.
With Stone Age Primtives and other modifiers listed.
And if you could list unclaimed territories as well.
>>144887574

Just like "artificial difficulty" isnt difficulty according to /v/, that must mean artificial intelligence isn't intelligence

No wait are you fucking serious?
You don't see how it would be a bigger advantage than your mother to see a clear list of all colonizable planets, where you can list them by size and modifiers?
Instead you think it is just as good to click each individual system in the galaxy one by one to look through all the planets?

Maybe you are just retarded anon.
>>144891350
I think so. Plus, if you only allow original "humans" as leaders, then xeno humans will allmost always that debuff. The good news is, over time genetic traits can be passed between xeno humans and original humans, so eventually you will have xeno humans who are not considered "xeno" for the purposes of politics
But, that takes hundreds of years, and you need unrestricted migration, which can cause other problems
>>144892565
>he doesn't know

Are strategic resources fucked since the new patch?
Tried building some space port addons that require shit to maintain but it shows that I'm not using the resources and I'm not sure if the ships build there actually get the bonuses.
Also lost a betharian mine, build it back, and it still shows that I'm using it all up despite having my previous betharian power plant offline due to lack of resources.
Not even using sector bullshit or mods that fuck with the resources.
Did the new patch make the game good?
>>144891860
>you know about holding alt right?
You can toggle that option as well, but that is irrelevant since a list would be superior. You still have to go click on each system, and each planet in the galaxy to see the modifiers and planet sizes.
Holding Alt and looking over the galaxy shows you planets in different colors to show habitability, Hover over them and you get planet type.
Imagine you had a list like you could make in excel.
Where you sort by largest to smallest.
Then you see all the big worlds you want.
Or you sort them by modifers and you quickly see where the Mineral Rich planets are and where the stone age primitive planets are.
It is objectively faster to sort a list then go through every system.
Even if you saw size and modifiers by hovering over the systems like you see planet type, a list would still be superior since you wouldn't need to scour the galaxy to find what you want.
>>144892753
KNOW WHAT?!?
>>144892928
Maybe you build one too much?
It is not consumed until build so you can quene few when you have only one unit of strategic resources.
Or you have some on some annexed planet.

I guess you're right, but that's not how I've been playing this game. Maybe next game.

>>144892239
You'd think people would remember that they were not-super a month ago.
>>144892748
There'd be no 'normal' humans left to pass the traits onto. Once the current set of leaders died that'd be it.
A martial empire doesn't allow voting, and only my primary species and androids are allowed leadership positions.
It's weird to think of gengeneered humans are xenos though. Do they really lose their voting and/or leadership rights?

But the eternal Swede just wants to sell DLC.

They are angry all the time, and all they do is eternally rehash their same stupid fantasies about groBgermania and byzantium and maybe muh roman empire through the ages over and over and over again.

why? in some ways it's the same fallacy that lead to the creation of mass farming in supcom and TA
if you can build up an economy without metal spots you can build up a stronger economy with mass farms and metal spots
if you can build 4 cities up to a massive size you can build 20 cities up to 5 times that size
"tall" should be a temporary advantage at best, where you focus on early power rather than expending your resources on a benefit that takes longer time to come in

that's not intrinsic encouragement, that's just not having a limiter, which will lead to ICS shit
which is the worst possible way to do things, make expansion incredibly powerful and provide zero hints that you MUST do it. great gameplay senpai
star ruler 2 says that you must use smaller colonies to support larger ones, but if you have too many small shitty colonies your economy will crash, 100/10 system which demands expansion of the player from day 1 and punishes you for not having a solid core to support it all from
just having no limit still means you can sit in one city building and not really notice anything is wrong until you get steamrolled with no feedback as to where it all went wrong

>>144899879
Even at the highest possible output that's less than 1.
>>144900795
Its pretty easy getting more than 10 research.
>>144900795
More something like 3.6 on a size 10 planet and 9.2 on a size 25 planet.
Anyone else have their pops not show any ethics? They have penalties to happiness that make me think they shifted to fanatic pacifist but their are no icons.
>>144902023
Hover over happiness and you should see what affects their happiness.
>>144901190
Not without other bonuses. Even then by the time you get the highest level of physics labs research isn't a problem.
>>144901550
Assuming the planet isn't you capital planet the most you can get out of them is 6 without other bonuses. The bonus is applied to the tiles and not the total output of the planet.
>>144902226
Yea it show me that they dislike purging and resettlement but I can't tell what their ethics have shifted to.
>>144902270
>Assuming the planet isn't you capital planet the most you can get out of them is 6 without other bonuses
I assumed Planetary Capitol, not Empire Capitol, so 4 from each lab.
>The bonus is applied to the tiles and not the total output of the planet.
Which doesn't matter because 4*1.1+4*1.1=8.8 just like 8*1.1=8.8
>>144902517
I think maybe pops may dislike those things unless they have certain ethics.
So with no ethics they still get mad about purging.
>>144902849
Can pops shift to just have no ethics at all? I hadn't considered that since I haven't seen it before.
>>144903064
Yeah I have some pops like that.
When you uplift presentients they start with no ethics as well, and you get events to pick between a few ethics.
I think it was mainly an issue in earlier patches, where ethics divergence shifted pops to have no ethics, instead of adopting new ones.
>>144903281
Well I have stacked some - ethics divergence so they better shape up fast or they are getting purged.
>>144902569
Even being generous and giving 5 +2 tiles you are going to need like 16 more labs. That planet is going to a huge drain on your energy.
>>144904070
>Even being generous and giving 5 +2 tiles you are going to need like 16 more labs.
For negating this statement?
>Even at the highest possible output that's less than 1.
9 labs on a size 10 planet gives you 3.6
>That planet is going to a huge drain on your energy.
Yes labs cost energy.
I guess I didn't consider that.
We better stop building labs now.
New meta boys.
>>144904395
You will never get a tile that gains 1 from the bonus. That statement remains true.
>9 labs on a size 10 planet gives you 3
Not planning on feeding those people?
H-h-here is my shitty icon guys
>>144904761
>You will never get a tile that gains 1 from the bonus. That statement remains true.
Which isn't the discussion.
The discussion is about how significant a 10% physics modifier on a planet is.
Planets have more than 1 tile which is the premise that have been discussed by both sides in the previous posts.
>Not planning on feeding those people?
Capitol and orbital with my current food modifiers is enough food for 10 pops.
I have a size 12 planet with 11 labs and no starvation.
Can I use the console to trigger a second and third crisis event?
Or do I need to mod the game first?
>>144905531
So we can gather that if you don't have modifiers for food it's not viable. We can also gather that the fact you can support a planet draining 27.5 energy you really don't need that research.
>>144885025
Don't bother trying to argue with retards who haven't even attended a 111 physics class
>>144903064
They do it all the time because paradox is retarded
WHY does he have no ethos?
>>144897416
wait pops interbreed?
>>144908631
Ethics divergence is a buggy mess
>>144895661
That's what they get for the Skyllian Blitz. Payback's a bitch.
>>144877949
Neither was yours, dipshit. It's vaguely similar to an icon a site you don't like and that means the effects it gives are shit? Nice logic, bud.
>>144908801
Will reeducation program ever fix these failed members of society?
>>144909837
My magic johan skull says maybe
Is there a point to missiles? Torpedos seem like they are a complete upgrade
>>144906110
>So we can gather that if you don't have modifiers for food it's not viable
Viable meaning what?
Having more than 1 physics output from a 10% for a size 10 planet like what was previously discussed?
With no modifiers you'll be fine with two farms.
So 8*4*0.1=3.2
Instead of 3.6.
Still more than 1.
>We can also gather that the fact you can support a planet draining 27.5 energy you really don't need that research.
Because you can support labs energy maintenance, you don't need research?
No.
>>144910609
Point defenses fuck em harm
>>144910609
You don't start out with torpedoes, so there's that.
Either way, the enemy fleet is always going to be hurting if they don't have enough PD.
Which torpedoes are more susceptible to, if I remember correctly. They travel more slowly and can get shot at more, or something.

what mods for traits should I pick lads
>>144913164
Haven't really seen any good mods for traits yet.
They add more stuff, but they imbalance things too much.
Like Weak is the best trait since there's hardly no downside and it gives you an extra trait point.
After that it depends a bit on your playstyle, Sedentary doesn't have that much of a downside so maybe that one is safe.
With the trait mods though you have better negative trait point picks and it's like if you could pick weak 3 times instead.
I saw one that even had negative traits that gave +2 or +3 trait points.
Like fuck you can get Intelligent+Extreme Adaptability that way.
Or pick 4 negative traits with +2 or 3 points each and give you a lot of room to genemod later.
It's nice that they're trying though, but the current way of modding traits isn't that appealing to me.
>go make a new ship class
>have to name them myself
what the fuck
>>144917005
How is this a problem?
There's autodesign if you don't want to name the ship.
Just got two planets from a war. Look at my income. Should I sectorize to maximize income, or should I just keep the planets under my own control, that way I can ensure I get what I want.
Here's a breakdown of all my planets, from top to bottom
Size 16, planned to be a full mineral planet
Size 23, planned to be a full physics planet
Size 21, planned to be a full energy planet, half of the tiles have blockers
Size 20 planets, planned to be an engineering planet (has the 20% bonus)
Size 16 planet, planned to be a mining planet
Size 22 planet, planned to be a social research planet
Sectorize or not? This is pre clarke
>>144917272
forgot the god damn picture ffs
>>144917146
autocomplete doesn't name them
I just don't know what fucking alien names my ships would get
>>144917586
Auto DESIGN mate. They generate new ships for you or update existing designs. I'm on mobile or I'd go in depth on it
>hyperspace-only game

Yup, feels like a Paradox game.

>I played super slow, didn't scout, and got murdered because of it
>I know, I'll blame the developer!
No, anon, you're just retarded.
>>144925889
It was barely six years into the game when that happened, I am hardly at fault for not being able to fight a foe vastly superior than I am. Besides, I am not complaining since I thoroughly enjoy Paradox games and the learning curves that they have.
>>144926163
>I left advanced AI starts on and got smashed by one
>I know, I'll blame the developer!
No, anon, you're still retarded.
Is there any way to get my federation/allies to fight the Scourge with me? I don't feel like bankrupting myself to fight them alone.
>>144926486
Why are you buttmad? Paradox games are very well known for that fact that you an be crushed mercilessly at the very beginning of the game if you get a poor start. I'm not blaming the developer at all, I do not understand why you think I am. You should probably go back to /gsg/ with your unnecessary hostility towards a new player, you'd fit right in with them.
>>144926517
Pls

Start a fake war vs some poor fuck across the galaxy , move around allied planets so their ships join you , then proceed to engage the pettywurms

git gud peasant
>>144927994
I think I can only get my world up to 339.
I'd have to sector in another betharian stone and get rid of the military academy though.
More than that I'd have to keep it as a core to get access to more than 4 betharian.
It's a 25 size world that can sustain itself on 1 farm and capitol due to food placement.
>>144928716
mine is only like a 18 tiles planet but it has a planet trait of +50% energy. All beltarian power plants except for admin building and one farm.
>>144929252
noice, haven't seen a +50% energy modifier yet.
Highest I've seen is +20% from dust storms, I have two of those for energy, but they're not xboxhuge.
How the fug do I increase the speed my ships get upgraded, it's like watching paint dry
The Unbidden are already here, does this ship come with a free scientist that goes past my leader limit?

Go the trait from an anomaly I think, they had to do some mining shit. Ill take a pic in a sec

I only have a pirated version, downloaded it yesterday.
I bought the game today but my internet isn't working because my ISP are Jews.
