"Design Revolution"-Event Malicious choice still broken

Hi Gal Civ 3 Devs,

 

Design Revolution Malevolent choice is still broken I reported it on the stardock bug report thing way back in release version. Any chance it can be fixed? I'd launch another ticket but well since there first one didn't get fixed not sure I see the point. 

 

It's supposed to be -10% mass on components it doesn't affect anything by the looks of it. I compared it to the Hyperion shrinker HTML I think the bug is in there as their effects don't appear to be the same, where in theory they should be. I'm sure you guys know more about whether or not it is actually wrong. All I can tell you is I had a custom design ship prior to the event, looked at the design a turn after , no change, also tried redesigning the ship from scratch to see if the design itself didn't update, also no change.

 

Thanks

it would also appear that whole perks in the ideology tree dont work (watchful doesn't grant fighters, the benevolent perk that stops war declaration doesn't work a lot of the time).

 

There is a lot of strange bugs that I'm surprised have persisted so long into the game's life cycle. The ticket system is obtuse, and even when you respond and carry out their lengthy instructions, they often respond a week later as if you've not done anything and just close the ticket.

 

Wish someone from their staff would just investigate bugs reported on the forum and respond to threads rather than just ignore them.

Given that my ticket was launched in May and it's now December. I dunno when this is expected to be fixed. I reopened my ticket just now, don't know if that'll do anything. Are you aware of any unofficial patches?

 

Really hard not to be disheartened by the lack of progress towards a solid game.

I agree on three counts.

1) I also didn't get this -10% mass reduction.

2) There still remain too many of these little bugs.

3) These things and some new bugs that seem to creep in prevent this game from being as good as it should be.

 

Lets hope some of these are addressed before 1.5 patch goes live!
