I had a ~6 hour game last night against an Advent and a Vasari a.i. and the revised diplomacy worked quite well. When I first played, out-of-the-box diplomacy was pretty much useless but it does seem much better now. In the first hour I was tasked with destroying ships/structures of either side and ignored it. Then the Vasari demanded 1,000 credits. No problem, here you are, now you like me. There were more "Sweep-and-Clear" missions and the Vasari kept asking for resources which I

I know you can create maps without them, which I have done, but it would also be a nice bonus to play many of the standard maps without the pirates. Oh and just for the obligatory praise: I absolutely love this game. As a big homeworld/starcraft/IG/MOO fan this is, in my opinion, the best damn space strategy game I have ever played. I was torturing myself by r

Plus it makes sense that the A.I. is actually smart enough to hinder their supposed "allies."
