It's extraordinarily good to see this game get the dev attention it deserves. I truly believe that it will pay off for you guys in the long run. Bravo!

The battle viewer is looking much better, but please, please, please, allow us to see the battle BEFORE the results are shown. I don't want to watch a battle after the fact...

Granted, I AM a bit of jerk. At least, I know I come off that way. Text doesn't really convey questions like that well... I just want to help and wanted to see where feedback was being seen. Thanks for the reply, Brad and Co.

Up next...the Festron: Another decent base-level ship and I appreciate the lack of logistics needs. It's nothing special, but it's a good entry-level commander ship. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/23/87/2387543/9ae9ac16-1842-4061-80b0-7ff7faa49265.png" alt="" width="590" height="558"

Over the course of the next couple of weeks, I'm going to evaluate every race's commander ships and offer some suggestions on how to make them a bit more unique/asymmetrical, so that each of the races has unique ships like that of the Humans or Baratak Grove. Let's start with the Humans: While the Victory is a bit boring, it does sca

That's because religion is a cancer and stifles rational thought. I appreciate that SD understands that and has made it very much part of the lore here.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="6" id="3875317"] The ships themselves don't have models. They are assembled from their parts. [/quote] Right, then, to be more specific, some of the ship parts are a bit ugly, particularly the Grove's. Anyway, looking forward to all of this.

[quote who="peterh1979" reply="3" id="3875153"] Will ship models get visually updates along with improvements and minor civs? [/quote] Yeah, some of the models are ugly. Like the Grove's. Even worse than GC3.

I'd love to start diving deep on providing feedback, but I don't want to waste my time if I'm not being heard. Not trying to be rude, but a copy/paste job of "Duly noted" would go a long way.

[quote quoting="post"] The Manti are said to have lost a whole generation and thus start with "fewer citizens". But when starting a new game with them, they have 5 citizens, just like everyone else. Also, the Navigators homeworld is always surprisingly good considering it's supposed to be mostly useless. Point being: If you have specific text about a race in the game, it should match what we see in game. [/quote] Complet

This looks great, along with the one you shared on the Discord. Will the updates be separate from "Next"?

[quote who="DerekPaxton" reply="29" id="3839323"] Quoting dg551, reply 26 Will this beta version be released early this week? No, not this week. Still lots more to add. [/quote] Dang, I was hoping it'd be this week. Was gonna play as The Hive to test those changes f

[quote who="DivineWrath" reply="11" id="3838745"] Quoting Publius of NV, reply 8 I hope this doesn't come across as snarky, but wouldn't it be a good idea to make sure that at least one of the Galactic Achievements actually work before adding new ones?

Any chance for the battle viewer?

[quote who="Surge72" reply="77" id="3838085"] Stardock could look at how Illwinter's Dominions series does auto combat? For each army, you set up the formations and orders of units, and then they carry those out to the best of their abilities in each combat. Now Dominions combat is considerably more complex and involved than Galciv, but there should certainly be something to take from how they do it? https://www.ill

[quote who="rikar" reply="59" id="3836712"] Beta is released but there does not appear to be any battle viewer. [/quote] No there's not a battle viewer yet.

I'd love to see more reasonable trade requests. In my latest video (Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tcF80wZOh8 ), the AI is making frequent, quite frankly, awful, trade requests. And the "strength" calculations seem a bit skewed, too. The Corporate Sector is scored twice as high as I am, despite being only really strong with their income and military.
