I really like the new planetary management/pop system, much more interesting to specialise your planets now, and it’s also great that pop growth now isn’t proportional to the number of planets you have… It’s a major shame about the lack of optimisation and the bugs, though. My biggest hope for this update was a performance boost so fingers crossed they’re still gonna deliver on that!
Also, I’ve seen a lot of UI complaints, especially around the planetary management. It definitely had issues on launch but I’ve not found it unplayably bad like some others? Definitely could display more info but not disastrously bad
Yeah I was envisioning the Star Trek Federation and it was much more like the Star Wars Republic where no one was willing to goto war against the aggressive advanced civ on my border.
