Nothing? No one has any suggestions?

Oh yeah, I'd love to see power progression/visual feedback, too! I'd also like to see heroes occasionally generated through battles, as if someone rises above challenges and becomes a hero that can lead, etc. 

Haven't tried CivBERT yet... Waiting for a big sale to pick up the expansion. But I like the suggestions.

Something I would like to see are the distinctive racial paths to victory from Armada 2526.

Some of the features I would like to see are ones that weren't carried over from GalCivII: political parties, espionage, asteroid mining, a decent editor.

When ship captains are finally introduced, perhaps giving them something to do along the lines of what Sorcerer King offers with its very robust quests.

More interactive diplomacy. I thought 2 had the abilities set up better. Abilities were better with two. Super abilities better with three except I would like to see a super instigator option. I miss the Drath they kept the game from being boring. Miss espionage. Better pirates. Distant worlds had a nicer pirate option. I miss a one place to download mods. Two was easier to delete custom races, Now the game won't let me. Don't get me wrong I like the super mod option. I just think it would've been nicer to have two mod buttons like the one they have in three where multiple mods work as one, and an option to choose between mods like in two. I sure would like to be able to download multiple custom tech trees. Almost any game as far as an editor not just modding capability. We have a map editor, but even the editor from 2 did more than this. I would like something more like civilization where you can work most game mechanics from something like a menu driven system. Allying with races to combine tech research. In the custom race option to make your own tech tree. Basically picking from all the different tech paths on the game. This may have you picking from different buildings, starbase modules, and ship parts. Maybe between player achievements. You could pick kits for things like player achievements. You would have to class the tech trees and limit how many of certain classes to balance this out. I would like to see adaptive ship module building based on relations with other players and if at war with them. Tech stealing race where they steal don't research after they meat someone. A side game where both the starting planet. other planets in the system were random based on class and type of planets. More modding options. Adaptive Ai. Leader based. Different leaders have different abilities. Civics instead of ideologies. I like the tech ideas except there should be a way to shut you out on the paths you haven't chosen. Civics where more fun than ideologies. Great people. Even though civilization dumped it I still think how their citizens ran  their empire was a nice addition to the game. Choosing abilities as you level up. From two where you could opt from new and old improvements. Space creatures. Economics more like two. More custom tech trees. An option to replace the player achievements in the selected tech tree with a custom pick.

I never got Beyond Earth Rising Tide (fool me once), but I`ve watched several utube `Let`s Plays` and I`m still not impressed. Diplomacy is only slightly better, but certainly not any better than CIV3- And what`s with the Leader silent voices, considering Civ 5 had audible speech in their authentic languages - that was a back step for Firaxis. The diplomacy screen doesn`t even feel like future tech to immerse you. The leaders themselves are also animated very poorly, yes, I know CIV3 has pretty much no animation to its leaders, but i`m comparing to Civ 5 which were much more lively and showed character. BE Leaders look asleep and they seem incapable of really showing emotion. Again every thing else is just boring, it does not feel like a futuristic imaginative game of exploration. Even wars are terribly lack lustre- Aliens are boring also.

 Nah, too little too late. Too crap and too boring.
