Research Pact

December 13, 2009 10:20:18 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

I was advent and got a research pact with another advent player.I noticed the cost of all research went up.I know its says it speeds up research but why does it cost more?Tier 1 research cost 419 0 26 I think.I had culture pact but its hard to see what these bonus are doing.Research pact is tieer 6?I mean I think it should drastically help out for being a tier 6ish tec.These pacts will not get used much considering the amount of envoys you must field to get your relations high enuf for the amount of bonus they give.

Given that cost is always the bottom line of how much you can research, this pact seems to be a bad thing.

 

By the way, can someone give a breakdown of all the current pacts and envoy abilities in Diplomacy for those of us who haven't yet jumped into the beta?

I'm gonna guess that this was simply a typo when we created the entity file for this particular pact, and it will be fixed in the future.
