One Crowded Neighborhood

So I set a custom galaxy to 100 Planets spread between 4 galaxies, with 9 artifacts, and 10 Players (including myself). So I start, and I find out that all 9 AI are in the same galaxy that I am in. Two enemies' capitals are just one jump away from mine. I quickly ran out of logisitc slots on all my planets, and an economic disaster occured with little crystal and metal, and alot of credits. Was this just a one time thing or is it supposed to be overcrowded so it forces you to expand to other galaxies?

This is driving me mad! Stop with the Galaxy non-sense!! The term is Solar systems,you had 4 overcrowded solar-systems. A Galaxy has 10's of thousands of planets and is not represented in this game. We are fighting/contesting ownership on the solar-system level.

Yeah, they took out the galaxy look with beta 2, now you shouldn't even be able to call it one.

I think the start possions are bugged, ive seen other posts about it.

This is a bug and is fixed in the upcoming patch.

Solar systems have orbits, asteroid fields, comets and doubtfully 25 habitable planets. In an abstract sense you can call it either and in a realistic sense you can call it neither. So chillax little buddy!

Yes its a totally inaccurate phrase which to someone coming in and having a first look gives a totally wrong impression of the games scope. But hey,in an era when everything is relative and there are no wrong answers say what you want.

Glad the bug is fixed. When is the expected patch ETA? Is there a list of all changes in the upcoming patch?

Glad the 'AI clustered around you' problem is going to be fixed.
