Will GC III support Windows 10 and can it ever be coded to make use of the new Direct X 12?

 

Yes what is ram needed to support the largest map?

Question: Will the weekly dev streams continue after the release of the base game?

(please say yes...)

It has been a weekly ritual for me to watch you guys on Friday and it would be a bummer if it stopped. Long live Gal Civ 3!!!

Will harvestable resources have actual use in Beta 5? (That kinda kills the experience for me atm).

 

i also wanted to express some concern regarding the over-use of constructors - with strategic resources, asteroids, relics, influence, economy, and military - I'm concerned things might become very constructor-heavy-micro-manag-ey.

I almost assuming there is, but will there be a randomize button for custom races?

The ram question is a good one. Based on my experience with immense games, that may be the largest map for me at 8 ram. I will probably be able to load any map but to play an entire game is another question.

Might be old Questions but.

 

Q1: Can we get some filter options for the research tree such as "Show only techs that affect star bases, are food related, are weapon related" ect.

Q2: Any news on if Star-bases will be able to move like shipyards. If not curious why? If we cant move them is there an easy way to convert a now near useless eg" influence star base in the middle of your empire to say an economic or military without having to destroy it and rebuild it

Q3: Any thoughts on being able to temporarily "turn off" a tile improvement on a planet in order to save the maintenance cost for the rare occasion when you might be having money troubles.

I've got to say this dev stream really got me excited. The trading resources are great. The Battle viewer is looking gorgeous, diplomacy is looking better and better, and those Thalan ships look downright sexy.

Would comment on the Snathi, but lost the train of thought after that laser show.
