Our first dev livestream for October is happening today at 3pm EST! Today, Lead Designer Paul Boyer will be playing the latest internal build of Galactic Civilizations III and showing off more of diplomacy. As always, we’ll be taking your questions so please leave them in the comments below and we’ll get to as many as we can.
Come on over to our Stardock Twitch channel and join us for our live broadcast!
After the live broadcast today, we’ll post the replay on our YouTube channel so you can catch up on the latest episodes.
Update: Replay is now available!
So let's get this question out of the way, when will Beta 2 be released to the public?
How will Crusades function?
How will the Iridium's planet killer work?
In diplomacy will we be able to trade for a future favor?
Will there be events similar to the Dread Lords or Peacekeepers, by that I mean a very difficult opponent that would be a challenge to mid and late game civs?
Will Tactical resources have any value other than trade prior to Age of War?
In other words I am revisiting this issue where harvesting them has zero use till Age of war.
Can we get a small passive buff to Tac resources to encourage their 'rush' in the early game?
You have several announced and unannounced games in development! You say you are a small company- so HOW does shifting resources(engineers etc) will impact the quality of Galactic civilizations 3. (If Brad now works on sorcerer King he does not work for Gal civ 3 right? and if he does work on both- he splits his 100% to 50-50 which is only half of his performance)
What changes will we see in beta 2 besides diplomacy, e.g. centering on combats and so on?
Will there be any trading pacts in diplomacy such as I'll trade w/ you, only if you don't trade w/ x player?
Will there be any agree to stay out of my space treaty?/neutral zone implications?
Survey ship/ collect survey only in my space?
Ship options to guard borders? Helpful, late games especially on larger galaxies.
Loved the stream, can't wait for Beta 2. I saw a bug, in the Victory Screen Influence and Ascension have their goals mixed up.
Updated post with replay.

open borders treaty or a modified version is not a bad idea as long as you are required to enforce it. Wht I'm saying is if I want to go into someone's space that I don't have a treaty with that has announced that no one is allowed in. If I have the will to try I should have a right to move in even if the player is forced to enact repercussions.
admiralWillyWilber, I think he said if you were to build or mine in the territory it would piss them off. I'd assume that would mean you could take your chances.
Cheep?
Cheep eep!
