I'll have a kid throwing stones in people's gardens next.
Levi Wilson
What's the best traits to pick?
Tyler King
spiders are verboten low-key background spiders are double-verboten
Andrew Baker
Geez. Frogs are forbidden because of Pepe, now spiders are verboten. What about galaxies? Or dragons? Everyone like dragons, right? I'll go for a kid throwing a stone in a dragon's backyard for the next OP.
Jayden Martin
Repugnant and Sedentary for the free trait points, then Industrious and Intelligent for those sweet, sweet science and mineral bonuses. If you're going for the Biological Ascension, get either no traits or negative traits (again Repugnant and Sedentary) so that you can actually use your trait points.
Ian Robinson
Can the Birth of Space Piracy happen for a hive mind? I doubt it can but I wouldn't be surprised if it could.
Jayden Stewart
Dragons throwing stones into a kids galaxy made with clip art.
Ryder Cooper
Common sense says no, so Paradox either says yes because Wiz can jack himself off on it or gives some asspull explanation for why several drones managed to free themselves from the hive mind.
Oliver Wood
Well I'm 13 years in with plenty of stations and no sign of it yet so I'm saying no for now.
Evan Gomez
Thanks to based Shroudbro I just managed to BTFO the AE's Titan and secure my soldiers' hold on their ringworld
Brandon Reyes
Sounds like a fun OP.
I'll still sneak a spider in it.
Eli Jackson
Godspeed, you magnificent bastard. Godspeed.
Colton Taylor
Welp, in about 40 years I'm going to have 3 AEs out for my blood instead of 2.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Bentley Powell
>use console commands to five awakened FE access to ringworlds >within a month he starts building 5
I don't know what I expected.
Jaxon Morales
Is anyone else's ship design UI quieter when you place stuff or is it just me?
Connor Brooks
Sounds like you're having fun. Has She who thirsts ate your worlds yet?
Tyler Green
What mod are you using for those smaller ship icons in the outliner?
Connor Morales
Tiny Outliner. Get all of the other Tiny Mods he makes, too. Makes the UI bearable.
Juan Carter
Tiny Outliner
Jack Hernandez
Ooooh I didn't know that mod had extensions. Thanks anons
James Ortiz
I am not very good at this game, I feel like I should be richer though.
Asher Myers
How many habitats are too many habitats?
They are so cheap and make me so much research and energy.
Also, how should I RP the space elves from crest of the stars?
Why can't I be a purely space faring race colonizing orbital stations until super late game?
William Johnson
>those planet names
Landon Nelson
Okay, before the new OP is ready, I need a screenshot of a Ether Dragon.
Christopher Brown
Better than Prime though desu
Landon Baker
I thought those clouds were kumos
Isaiah Miller
Giedi Prime is the best planet tho.
Clouds? Where?
Elijah Morgan
fug this
Carter James
SOME MEN JUST WANT TO WATCH THE WORLD BURN
Ian Miller
Mods were a mistake
Charles Moore
>1.5k minerals a month HOW TELL ME HOW
Gabriel Evans
The clock is ticking. 35 years left. Fortunately, influential members of my high command have managed to justify spending resources on using newly-discovered ringworld technology to build a sanctuary should the worst come to pass instead of wasting them on on our constantly waning navy.
Evan Howard
Hahaha what the fuck is this shit
Jaxson Evans
No. I know, I was surprised myself.
Cameron Turner
You're seeing it yourself user, two ringworlds, with 100% happiness and 25 tiles per segment, and Lord knows what else the guy has on his other planets.
We're praying for you, user. Also, do ringworlds become Shrouded by the End of the Cycle?
I don't know why I thought it would be a good idea.
Brody Clark
Jesus Christ it's like having a blind girl driving you home after a hot night.
You wanted this. You caused this. It's your fault.
Dylan Lee
I guess its not all bad.
Does anybody know how long it takes for the Vanth event from LEX to activate after you break the seals? I think it might of bugged out but Im not sure.
Xavier Davis
Is this from IL too?
Gabriel Sanders
No. Because *** Prime is unique to you, so it is easier to identify your space clay.
Parker Hughes
The ship model is from Elves of Stellaris and the class is from Improved Space Battles. Im just using that standalone megastructure addon not the full IL mod.
Connor Cox
Thanks user!
Daniel Flores
>Also, do ringworlds become Shrouded by the End of the Cycle?
Inhabited ones get destroyed, as do uninhabited ones within your empire. I've never done this before so I'm not sure, but I built it on the outer rim under the auspice of a frontier outpost and then deleted it to be sure.
Ayden Hughes
Today, on "why I love and hate Battle Realm", my units are fucking retarded. >hahaha I am an archer, I'm very good at pinning your shit faggot >oh shit a swordsman! >BETTER KICK HIM IN THE GROIN >RUNNING AWAY IS FOR PUSSIES >THIS IS SPARTA >egh i'm ded
If they ever make a HD remake or a sequel, I hope they'll make units less fucking retarded, because sometimes it feels like I'm playing some online games where nobody care about the objectives and they only want points.
Nathan Evans
I actually got half way through
Ryder Watson
Pretty gud user
Noah Foster
is there a way to play as a peaceful cryptokike who dont need much military and focus on building ring worlds and providing utopian lifestyle?
Angel Miller
>is there a way to play as a peaceful
no
Nathan Fisher
Glorious
Nolan Bennett
Federation and it's as pacific as our United States of America are in middle orient. You either hitler the galaxy turning it in a space reich or you go "liberation and democracy export". There are no 100% pacific victory con
Benjamin James
Zoo Keepers user here again. It turns out I spawned in a pretty bad place, getting sandwiched between an FE and the completely empty galactic core. I also have this really pissy neighbor to the south who doesn't like me despite my being Xenophile and basically I dindu nuffin -yet-. I'll probably turn his worlds into my first alien zoos but for that I'll need a bunch of ships.
Thankfully, I'm getting on rather splendidly with the FE and I'm basically using them as a Trader Enclave with a very sweet 10:9 exchange ratio.
Evan Bailey
>is there a way to play as a peaceful Yeah. You still need a massive army and you need to be a giant hypocrite to "liberate" the fuck out of everyone instead of just conquering them.
Kayden Adams
She looks very weak, if you kick her hard enough in the shins I think you could grab a few bags of minerals and escape before they notice.
This combined with the AI ascension perk picks (which appears to be completely random) really fucks the game at a base level. This is what you get when the developers have deluded themselves into thinking that multiplayer is more important.
Samuel Anderson
are we dead lads
Luke Harris
Apocalypse user, do you use a mod for your Eldar Empire besides the Elves in Stellaris thing? I know you use the Asari mod, but do you use any of its features?
Thomas Morales
IIRC his race has the ageless trait
Angel Gutierrez
Ah, thanks user.
Also, anyone care to chime in on this?
Jonathan Edwards
I wish Wiz would get demoted from whatever he's doing to a job where he won't be allowed to fuck the game up.
Camden Davis
I picked up Stellaris cause it seems cool and Humble made it cheap, but literally every method of display has some fuckin issue.
>Windowed Fullscreen >Game sits small, not fullscreen, in top left corner >Fullscreen >actual fullscreen but the mouse cursor isn't right and is partly under and to the right of the cursor >Windowed set to max resolution >starts fine, but at 30% into loading replicates windowed fullscreen issue
Turning off VSync and setting a specific launch option were the suggestions and neither of them seemed to fix it
Jace Green
Guess I'm fine with it. Would prefer if miniature/temporal wormholes were generatable still. Don't care much for warp.
It's better than the suggestions for "you should be able to kill some shit and reverse engineer its drive system" or "investigate a ship's FTL wake to unlock its drive system". Literally no point in that when you can just change your race's engines at the start. It's not "progress".
Wyatt Murphy
With any other studios, I would suggest going to their forums to complain, but with Paradox, saying anything remotely bad about the game will get you banned and then told to git gud and stop whining.
Yes, in that order. They're not insane, they ban first and insult second.
Cooper Sanchez
Never had that issue Did you try verifiying your file integrity?Doesn't sound too bad
Hunter Nelson
Here's my settings and everything works perfectly. I use 2 monitors though. 1920*1080
also
>2 unusually bright stars in my starting system's borders
Kevin Davis
We all do, user. But chances of that happening are basically zero, so we've gotta make do with him.
It's a miracle, Wiz actually has a good idea I can't wait to see how Paracocks is going to ruin it
Brayden Miller
Well lads, there's been no appreciable border changes or shifts in the fortunes of war. My allies and I have successfully contained the neighboring, smaller AE vassals and I've managed to hold off both AEs with blessings from the Shroud.
Unfortunately, every elf in my empire is now feeling a growing pressure in their heads that can't be diagnosed by our current medical science.
The Admiralty has been briefed that there may be troubles soon, but they are losing servicemen by the hundreds of thousands every year just to keep the AEs at bay.
They report that psychological breakdowns are becoming almost routine in every engagement, ensigns developing a taste for the jugulars of their fellow midshipmen is now commonplace, and even the ship-board AIs have taken to venting crew compartments into the void seemingly at random.
The Admiralty is not told that only one year remains till the date the Dark Gods promised to take their due.
Will continue tomorrow.
Grayson Williams
The method I've figured out to play the game right now is: >Set computer scaling in Windows 10 to 100% >Open in Windowed Fullscreen >Let the game fuck itself and get smaller at 30% of the initial load >change scaling to 125% >game takes up full screen and no cursor issues
man fuck this I have an hour playtime on Steam already and I'm only just now about to get past the main menu
Alexander Foster
>Windows 10
>he fell for it
Jace Sullivan
>Windows 10
Kevin Campbell
You have 30 minutes left to figure out if you like it before you can no longer ask for a Steam refund.
If I remember right, the limit is 1h30 for 2 weeks. Beyond that, it's fucked.
You have a problematic attitude.
Colton Bell
What kind of retarded planet ordering system is this
Samuel Davis
I'm on 10 and haven't had any issues.
Jackson Martinez
Muh 100%
Carson Rogers
Habitability you GORVBER
Jaxson Thomas
Goddammit, I was playing last night and did something stupid.
Now I don't remember what it is. Is there like an action or history list that I can look at and save scum to change
Connor Thomas
Why aren't colony ships at the top of the outliner. It makes sense, the ships you have the least of and take the least room should be towards the top since they are probably the most important.
Michael Miller
> I got drunk and made a mistake TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.
Charles Scott
How much growth penalty is 40% habitability?
Liam Ramirez
>Less options for the player >Good idea I can understand the point of trying to make it as progression, but i still feel is the worst thing to do, in particular because it doesn't fix a lot of the problems.
Chase Hall
60%
Hudson Jenkins
Read the damn tool tips. 40% is 40% and 90% is 90%
Jaxon Lewis
I am going to hate this?
Asher Long
You will be remembered, user.
Liam Bailey
But what about 50% or 70%?
Jaxson Torres
40% what? Reduced by or reduced to 40%? :^)
Brandon James
That's quite an exaggeration. I criticise games of theirs I don't even own pretty viciously, and I've never been disciplined. Maybe it's you?
Easton Fisher
The better question is why can't you organize things in the outliner however you want? Lazy fucking coders.
James Anderson
What tooltips user? I'm not settling a 40% hab planet just to find the number out when it should tell me by mousing over the planet's habitability. All that does is tell me that it impedes happiness by capping it. It doesn't even mention growth for fuck's sake.
Asher Gray
It tells you when mousing over the growing pop bar. Growth is a direct 1:1 with habitability.
James Cook
Alright. How does it start?
Is 55% hab a 25% penalty, because I assume 80% being the 'base' planetary preference having no penalty means so. 0% would theoretically be an 80% penalty?
Mason Turner
What the fuck do you think 1:1 means? It's the same the number for one is exactly the same as the number for the other you can read habitability and say "wew this is the growth number aniki"
Isaac Evans
Actually, you just get +100-HAB% to growth points required. So with 80%, it'll take you 20% more to grow pops. With recent changes, nothing else affects it, all other bonuses affect growth speed instead.
Connor Howard
did the new 1.6 patch fix the UI scale issue with Stellaris?
Wyatt Ward
No purging or robots for you user
Jack Brown
So 50% hab is 50% penalty. 60% is 40%? 70% 30%. 80% is what? 0%? Because that's "green" and the species' preferred type, so there really shouldn't be a penalty, but your dumb ass is implying there is. You make it sound like lower habitability is less harsh than higher by saying it's 1:1.
Matthew Gonzalez
Preferred type, but it is not identical to the world that they evolved to, so it isn't perfect.
So there is a growth malus of 20%
Cameron Reed
Alright, I didn't know that same-as-home-world-types had a penalty too. Do Gaias have a penalty? I know they're 100%, but if that number goes down to 95%, there would be a penalty? They are supposed to be perfect worlds, so it'd make sense there isn't a penalty.
