Re: maximum city size

Keep Missy .... but alter her announcements to be more informative.

I like the idea of a newscaster bringing news about what's happening between other factions. The so-called humor is somewhat repetitive and annoying but it can be made into a more useful source of information.

Re: Question: Why are the maps not centered?

At one point (I can't remember if it was during the beta, or right after release) they changed the way the mini map worked. Before, the mini map was basic and the territory (1,1) was in corner of the minimap. This seems to be the intuitive way to do things, but it meant that your colonizer on the f...

Question: Why are the maps not centered?

The pangea map is one large land mass ... How come it is never centered?

I cannot imagine this being deliberate, since it really serves no real purpose for it to be shifted off to the side every time. And its not like it won't fit because it will.

So, what's the deal?

Re: Steam Release?

Gosh, I never realized there was some steam "nazi's" out there :D Me either ..... And I can't quite figure it out. (From someone who doesn't use steam) What does steam offer, that is so effective that guys won't purchase a game unless steam distributes it. And the key term is "DISTRI...

Re: Turning off population growth

I'd rather put some strategy and competition in the mix by allowing factions to manipulate this value (with trade-offs, of course). Not to mention, if growth was hindered by lack of habitation, it would make expansion a bigger priority thus causing border wars and making the game more interesting. ...

Re: New Unique Faction Traits

What if you add 6 new operations, one for each faction exclusively? Perhaps along with new unique traits. Good idea. Terra can have an operation that used the planet as a weapon. Causing natural disasters in enemy territory destroying building in a city. Togra can crippled your research for a few t...

Re: Response to critics.

I know it's no fun to like stuff on the internet, but I'd like to respond to what I'd consider a rash of negative pub the game is getting due to a perceived lack of depth, complexity, and content in the current state of the game: Well. You have a point! At this point I'd consider the game more &quo...

Re: What is or is there an update\feature schedule?

The continuous beta is addressing issues as they arise. They are concentrating on the diplomacy system, faction balancing and UI stuff. I saw a post where one of the programmers mentioned some stuff that might be waiting in the wings, but that the company had to decide what would roll out free and ...

Re: Does the AI gang up on you?

The AI (Even with their aggression setting increased in the xml) are very docile in this game. And they also, don't seem to form alliances during wars and they don't group-up against other factions. (At least as far as I can tell)

The game, as it is presently .. doesn't offer any surprises.
