DA really buggy :(

I guess I am going to switch over and play DL instead of DA until some patches get released. I can't take it.

I just sat down and played my first full entire game of DA, and its terrible.

First of all, I was having problems when I try and colonize a planet. When my colony ships arrive at a new planet, the colonize screen comes up, and it is all wrong. It shows the planet name correctly, but instead of a bare planet, it shows improvements from a different planet of mine, minus some of the tiles. I accidentally started building improvements instead of exiting the screen, and I think my planet went wacky. I had to uninstall the improvements and start over. Kinda screwed me up wondering if my planet was 'working right'.

Things got really weird once I made a couple of alliances. I got messages from the AI allies repeatedly about how they were going to come to my defense against an aggressor. I look at my diplomacy relations page, and I find that the race they are coming to my defense against is actually my ally! This happened several times with different races, and I just couldn't figure out what was going on. Why do I need protection against my ally?

EEEk! Someone at stardock needs to start using their fly-swatter, and fast.

maybe if you could submit a debug err from DA, we could help you figure it out.

Yeah, submit a debug report. I've had none of these bugs. And I play on a very low-end system.

The misidentification of certain civ problem is a known issue and will be corrected in the next update. The rest of what you describe, however, has not turned up in any of the 12 DA games I've played thus far.
