[quote]I just had a cap ship disappear into a wormhole (though the game will tell you its still there as usual. This is an issue that really needs to be fixed.[/quote] So do you have a savegame you can send in? Maybe the autosaves befor & after it occurs. Complaining about it alone, ain't gonna help getting it fixed. [Edit: I got ninja'd, by Yarlen posting at the same time]
[quote]Im not sure if it is supposed to be like this but it only starts to increase allegiance once the planet has culture on it[/quote] [quote who="GoaFan77" reply="1" id="3139036"]Its the way all allegiance bonuses work. It increases the max possible allegiance, not the baseline.[/quote] Hmmm... thats interesting. Maybe this is why Induced Reverence doesn't increase an ally's allegiance when you have a starbase at his home? I just thought it was a bug.
[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="1" id="3139105"]the maximum culture loss rate.... 0.07% per second[/quote] I agree with the all of original post. Like GoaFan, I think the main culprit is the maximum culture loss rate of 0.07% per second. This means it takes a minimum of 24 minutes to bring a homeworld down to 0%. No matter how much culture you throw at them, its the same, and... its too long. That maximum rate is too restrictive.
[quote who="DirtySanchezz" reply="2" id="3138948"]The problem with this is that it's a team game, and your team could still win the game. It's quite possible that when you were defeated you did it in such a way as to impose a strategic cost on the opposing team, allowing your team to win. (Taking one for the team.) I don't see why someone who does that should not receive a win if his team wins because it is a team-based game.[/quote] I explained myself poorly, so I edited
If the last player on a loosing team won't quit, you have to kill his whole (online, locked) team to get the win. (ie: All of his online team has already accepted the imminent defeat and has already quit or surrendered). The game won't/doesn't give him a loss if you kill just him (all of his planets and fleet)! You have to kill every last shred of ALL of his remaining AI team to get the win (and him a loss)!

[quote]What is it good against? Er, supports that anything can beat and with the current flak nerf, flak; except no one will spam flak anymore... -They get hard countered by HCs, a commonly spammed late game unit.[/quote] Sloan, they are good against Carriers too (Heavy armor too), and late game when their abilities are teched, they fulfill various roles. So: flak, carriers, support, and then add special abilities. So still good against alot, IMO. The

They warned about the next patch , after a bunch of ppl like you complained after last patch. And its not like the patch timing is unpredictable or unavoidable!

[quote who="bilun" reply="29" id="3136494"]Here's the thing: most capitalships can deal 40-50 DPS with planetary bombing(that's before upgrades). Against a 6000 HP planet Provoke hysteria deals 60 DPS. [/quote] Yeah, this is incorrect. Most cap ships do 4-5 dps (even tho the info card says 40-50)! Ten seconds for every shot or something. Provoke Hysteria kills 1% per second, for a total 40% (so yeah 60dps for a 6000 health planet). Provoke Hysteria IS

Have you tried lowering effects to low? Do your systems meet the minimum game requirement? Are these all LAN games? Have you tried online? Have you tried single player to see if that crashes too? It sound like more of a problem with someone's compu
After watching this replay, I noticed that the starbase trade income from enemy planets was not showing up when you hover over the Credits Summary. Not sure if it wasn't being added tho? I saved the game, and played it a little longer. And was able to get the income into the upper 1400s quite easily.
[quote who="bilun" reply="7" id="3134642"]That certainly trned into more of a rant then I expected... [/quote] Wow, that was a "rant". While you raise some good points, your understanding of Global Unity is obviously incomplete. I was just making a small observation, not wanting to argue.

[quote who="bilun" reply="4" id="3134555"]This is with the current Beta 2a. 1) After clearing a planet with too much hostile culture to colonize - in Trinity, I could typically just wait it out - eventually a planet in hostile culture would become colonizable anyway after a certain amount of time. But in this release, there didn't seem to be such an allowance - I could not colonize it at all until I could push more of my culture into the area - bug or new behavior?[/quote]

[quote who="mcintire" reply="20" id="3132493"]This means in your case with the 3 culture centers each enemy planet only recieves the "power" of 1.5 I hope I explained that right, that's how I picked it up in another thread.[/quote] Yeah thats right, if the culture spread is being cut in half by only 2 lanes out. If there are more lanes out, then its less. ElRobino, look at your planet info cards to see how much culture you are attacking with. It has to

To my understanding, each shot delivers '50' culture. So 2 shots, means '100' culture, therefore the capital would've had to have more than 5 culture towers (5*20), or
[quote who="SithLordAJ" reply="20" id="3129803"]Here's a test for you (or possibly me): The spreadrate bonus given by confluence is huge compared to the standard advent culture techs. I'm wondering whether confluence is working as intended, and so I would like to see a comparison between the spreadrate of maxed-out standard culture (no wall of faith just to remove that variable) and the spreadrate of just maxed-out confluence. Then for kicks both maxed out standard +conflue
The following are the results of my tests. Like AJ, I used a stopwatch to test how long it took Culture to reach various points, with or without the research techs, as well as with a second culture tower alone (no add'l culture research). [BTW, these were at 2X times speed, and all faster settings, so double the times for actual time to reach the planets?] Planet 1 took 59.44 with no research.....and 52.87 with confluence, 44.69 with second tower</di
[quote who="Tridus" reply="37" id="3127607"]Based on my experience in beta 2, the Deliverance Engine's culture spread can be overwhelmed by local culture generation, in which case none of its "in your culture" effects apply and allegiance doesn't go down at all. You need a fair bit of culture generation to do that, but if you have the thing is nullified entirely except as a fleet damage booster. Compared to the other two, it's underwhelming. Maybe it should also disable
