Dev Stream Today (Friday, October 10th) at 3pm EST, Noon Pacific

Hey, i have questions about diplomacy in the game-

1) Will there be an option to ask the AI what will it be willing to trade for whatever the player is offering? It will save the player time from asking for things the AI won't trade and offering new proposals in vain.

2) Will it be possible to know directly from the diplomacy screen which of the AI's things it won't agree to trade (no matter what you propose)?

3) Will the AI be able to offer an counter-proposal?

How will Crusades function?

How will the Iridium's planet killer work?

In diplomacy will we be able to trade for a future favor? Sort of like an I owe you.

Will there be any trading pacts in diplomacy such as I'll trade w/ you, only if you don't trade w/ x player?

Will there be any agree to stay out of my space treaty?/neutral zone implications?

Survey ship/ collect survey only in my space?

Ship options to guard borders?  Helpful, late games especially on larger galaxies.

Will there be a dev stream for the 100 player game?

With the traded resources, maybe if we trade enough resources of a certain type we can build extra habitable tiles?  This would be very hard to do early on the game but possibly easier as the game goes on.

Can you sneak us a peek at the (new) resources that will be available that we have not seen in our current build?

Besides the appearance and enhanced detail of ships, what other significant graphical upgrades will GalCivIII have over GalCivII? And can you show off any of them during the stream?

Could you show us the "Civilization Manager", "Foreign Stats" and "Domestic stats" menues on the stream?

What is the biggest changes here from GalCiv 2?

Cheers!

More of a late stage, polish question here.

Any intentions to resolve continuity discrepancies that were present in Galactic Civilizations 2, and others currently in the Beta? Examples include references to the Xendar (if I'm playing as Humans who don't even have a warship yet I don't want to see references to how I wiped them out) or events where there are natives on Mars, that sort of thing. I think that goes a long way to maintaining some of the addictive, emergent stories that can happen in games like these! Much better than having too many references to lore and history from the campaigns of the past two games.

When Beta 2 launches my goal will be to trade for as many of the other civilizations' unique techs as I can.

Updated with replay.

360p?

Youtube is just processing. In a few hours 720 will be up. 

I love it - Galactic Civilizations III More!!!

Thanks for getting to most of my questions this week as well as liking my suggestion about the habitable tiles much appreciated.

P.S.  Don't be afraid to mention me when asking my questions lol...  "S-eye-lore"

Looks like everythings coming together
