Hehas been playing awhile since he has 3 cities hoping to watch the first couple of video soon. Still have not finished that 250 turn PAC one .

 

[cicero225]

He just said that trade route units no longer stack with/interrupt civilian units.

Glad to see that fixed. That sounded like an obvious flaw in the press build.

EDIT: he found a bug. His spy somehow gave information on two cities...

 

[Manannan]

Is it just me or does it look a hell of a lot nicer? Also what I miss with alien colour being different? o_O

It appears that if you have aliens near/in your territory without any violence taken against them they become "blue" for "friendly where you can send units within the 2 hex range of their nests without them attacking.

Yup, having an alien nest within your territory gives a big +happiness bonus with the aliens. Have it up for long enough and the aliens straight up do not attack you, period. He's walked past several worms and krakens without trouble.

And it seems to add up as he did accidentally have an explorer attack an alien with no repercussions (besides his explorer bouncing off of an annoyed manticore). So you'll probably be able to selectively kill an alien now and then if its in the way.

 

[Cyon]

So what except unit strength changes and no sat stack limit is new in the new build?

 

[MadDjinn]

I'll have the videos up on the YT's in a bit

he had two spies, one in each city... so he was not seeing two cities from one spy, but the display for the one spy was showing both cities together..

Glad the production bug for a trade route kicking out the production has been fixed.

 

[AriochIV]

No, it was a bug. He had spies in two cities, but not the two cities he was seeing. One spy was in the capital, the other spy was in a second city, and he was seeing the second city and a third city at the same time.

 

[Gamewizard]

I am curious if the Harmony 1 bonus works toward the blue status. I wonder how many aliens he could kill without losing the friendly status.

Marauder(harmony T4 melee): 48

i dont understand why they reduced so much the units' strength O_o

 

[Gamewizard]

Because some were too high, undervaluing some of the upgrades.

 

[Sprenk]

Well, he mentions that mines now get +2 production right off the bat (they used to get +1 plus a chance at a later +1 through a tech)

 

[KrikkitTwo]

i dont understand why they reduced so much the units' strength O_o

Possibly also it keeps siege worms relevant longer

 

[Inhalaattori]

Possibly also it keeps siege worms relevant longer

I would think that one reason also might be that conquering cities in very early game was too easy.

 

[Gokudo01]

have generators always given +2 energy with no upgrade ?

Yesididilleedoodalee!

 

[Eagle Pursuit]

What are the seeding options on this one?
