[quote who="antibor" reply="126" id="3494228"] I am a bit lost on map- wise where we are. Personally I can live without the combat result screen for each battle - as long as they are so one sided. Maybe fewer in combat screenshots too. There is no need to write that the Torians built a Hyperion Shrinker and add a screenshot showing just that. My two cents, but I am just one reader.

What I like most in first released GC III Alpha build is that it is almost as polished as Elite: Dangerous Alpha 1.0 was. I was expecting runtime errors / BSODs when trying to start the client at worst, CTD-fest and non-working features that should have worked already at best. What I got? Download & install: success 1st try Start the Client: success 1st try CPU sweating its ass off: all cores utilized 60-80% with 3 oppo

[quote who="Sognar" reply="42" id="3455784"] Does anybody else have problems Accesing some of the Items in the Vault? I do get a link to a "octet stream" instead of the actual Files for some of the things in there (e.g. the 2nd latest File)[/quote]Just rename it to *whatever*.docx when saving, it is a .docx file without the extension (the at this time second newest file).

Neither Nvidia nor ATI/AMD, the DXdiag clearly says you're running Intel HD GPU, which is an integrated one, coming with the CPU. More specifically, Intel HD 3000 GPU.

[quote who="trims2u" reply="11" id="3454867"]Range should NOT be adjusted by map size. It should be scaled for a Small Map, then left fixed. One of the things that *should* be a challenge on larger/huge/etc. maps is that you MUST load up your ships with life support to enable them to cross the vast distances. [/quote]Definitely this. If there are 8 different Galaxy sizes in the game, the basic range settings should be optimised for tier 3 or 4, making range techs

[quote quoting="post"] One thing that I really loves about Master of Orion (the original) was that there were 6 different tech trees, even though they were pretty primitive. This, I think, is a much better simulation of a real galactic research-wide effort than being able to research only weapons for several weeks, then suddenly switch gears and research government, for example. And there was nothing like getting beaten down by another race when all of the sudden 3 techs you really need

[quote who="Spitfire" reply="63" id="3405070"] Elite founder pack I hate being an early adopter and having to pay for content separately when later a "gold" edition comes out. Thanks for a new way of purchasing a game as an early adopter while not having to worry about future content![/quote] Exactly! [quote who="Korwyn" reply="82" id="3405433"] So how many of you still play GC II (any edition) on a regular basis?[/quote] I do :) .
