We expect to have the BETA out this month. Which means that we are starting to do more than just tighten up the graphics.
However, we are, you know, tightening up the graphics this month too.
Here's a changelog from this weekend to give you a sneak preview of this week's new build:
XP needed to go up a level increased. (probably not enough)
Made sure techs don't provide more than 7 policy unlocks.
Great news! I think the timing is right, you've made a lot of really good changes lately.
I'm so stoked! I've been playing Galactic Civilization all my life since the first one when I was a kid. I used to make little comic books and stories with friends based on our games. I just wanted to make an account to tell you thank you for everything you do.
I love what this team is doing. GC4 is going to be your best-ever 4X, I can just tell.
Keep up the great work!
Beta generally means "feature complete". Does that mean we'll see the "vault" and the battle viewer this month?
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing that!
When?
It looks great, thank you Frogboy! Current governments feature was clearly a placeholder, any vision on what´s up with them in the future?
And BTW any chances on loyalty rework?
Will we be able to assign multiple core worlds as sponsors to one shipyard?
Will we be able to assign a colony to a specific core world? If two potential core worlds are near each other, it would be great to be able to assign colonies to each one rather than be forced to effectively keep one as a colony.
Still looking for a micro-map.
For me only as a minimizable window as the one thing I hate most about 4X games is the Odin Cursed mini map blocking access to part of the main map.
I agree. But when you are dealing with multiple sectors, we need a way to quickly jump from one to the other.
I don't think there are any plans to have a mini map. I'm wondering if there might be some other way to quickly jump between sectors.
You could name sectors then have a pull down menu to goto a sector.
Alternatively (or in addition): "^", space, or... for instant max out zoom.
Yes, I agree Commander4x, a button or key bind for instant galaxy zoom out would be really nice, and somehow implement a separate "Tab Through" Sectors function would be great!
With respect to this discussion about zooming, I have found that the ability to use the scroll wheel on my mouse to scroll-out is a very easy way to see all of the sectors at once. When you use the scroll wheel to scroll-in, the app scrolls into the location of your cursor. This allows you to scroll-out to see all sectors, move the cursor to the area you want to see up-close, then scroll-in to see that area. I do not think any additional programming is needed to implement multiple ways of performing these functions.
With respect to your comment, my finger is tired from all the scrolling.
Also, assigning a colony to a specific core world is what I've been wanting in the updates too! Thought I was the only one.
There are many great features available to you once you register, including:
