[0.50] My experience so far

from GalCiv3 Forums

Had problems getting the game to start, the loading times were abnormally long, after updating my drivers and several resets it went back to normal.

1. The text in the tooltip for some ideology traits isn't displayed properly.

2. The names of planets around stars with long names cover the planet quality level.

 

 3. Galactic event text is cut off at the bottom.

 

4. Stationed a colony ship on Earth, the tool tip display the wrong number of ships defending.

 

And then my laptop overheated and shut itself down.

5. More text not being displayed correctly, for the improvement Xeno Research Laboratory in the planet list.

 

6. Research Treaty unlocks Slave Brokering,

7. Text not displayed correctly, and I chose the Malevolent option and did not get either the tiles or the penalty.

Laptop's old, I know I'll have to either buy a new one or a desktop, so long as I don't play for too long it will be okay. This didn't happen in Beta 1 even when playing for 5 hours straight.

8. Text display bug in the treaties screen when scrolling.

9. I can have more than one treaty with a civilizations, example I have two Cultural Treaties with the Iridium.

10. Revenue from treaties is not calculated corectly.

 

11. Trade Route Optimization and Trade Tariffs don't unlock anything.

12. They really like me, also I haven't met the Krynn when this meeting took place.

 

13. After Rapture III flipped to my side it didn't update to display that it belongs to me, I could view it and place improvements, after exiting the planet screen it was displayed correctly.

14. Planet names are displayed through the minimap.

15. Could technologies that are unique to a civilization be marked as such in the tech tree? I liked that in GC2.

16. There is a bug with the starbase module Xeno Archeology Lab, it gives a too high a bonous, in the file it has a value of 5.125, it should be 0.125.

17. I miss the treaties screen from GC2, it allowed you to see how the different civilizations felt about each other at a glance. The only problem would be how cluttered it would look in a 100 players game.

18. Ideology points aren't deducted when unlocking a trait, so far this has happened with those from Pragmatic. Also after upgrading Outreach Group to Mediation Center, I can build Outreach Group again on different planets.

19. The Alliance Focus specializations don't unlock anything.

20. The icon is missing for the tile bonus Mineral Rich, which is odd since I think I saw it on another planet.

21. I believe this is a display bug, I unlocked the Pragmatic trait that should increase shipyard range, but the number remains red. Also could shipyards have ZOC like starbases?

22. After discovering a lost ship I'd want to have their design available to be able to construct them, I really like the look of some of them.

23. The AI severely undervalues Colony Ships, it's very easy to just wait until the AI has a colony ship near a habitable planet and buy it from them, it costs less than rush buying one.

24. How I managed this, first the Interstellar Patent Board passed, then I tried to get it repealed and that failed, after that I could propose it again and it passed for a second time.

 

25. I miss the option from GC2 to display the computer clock in-game.

26. Game is stuck on Wait, I can move around the map, view planet screens, etc. But the next turn won't start. Ticket submitted #YZT-531-82770.

Nice compilation! #26 seems to me like it should be the highest priority to fix, as many people (myself included) are having the same issue in later periods of the game. I have yet to finish a game or even make it out of the Age of War, but at least that gives me something to look forward to :D

I reported this for the Benevolent tree in this thread, interesting to see it occurs in Pragmatic as well.
