SOLID game..
played for a few hours now..
My only peeve is lack of UI scaling (like the rest of the civs)
If I play at my native 25x16 resolution, the text is too damn tiny to read..
Even at 1680x1050, the text is quite small
So I'm forced to play at 1280x800.. sigh..
Still.. I enjoy the game immensely..

what the **** resolution are you using
25:16 should not exist

2560x1600.. all the people calls it 25x16 (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/embarrassed3-onion-head-emoticon.gif?1292862502)

I think I managed to pre-load it onto my computer without buying it...
I am so excited to play it oh my god. The possibilities going into a civ game is massive.

It's like doing drugs.. so be careful...

well, Mantle works pretty darn well... although you have to adjust desktop resolution manually to match the game.

ffffffffff.... ok... do NOT shoot the aliens.. if you shoot the aliens.. they'll landlock you for 200+ turns because there are way too many of them... (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/bad-atmosphere-onion-head-emoticon.gif?1292862489)

Yeah I heard that aliens are tougher than barbs were in previous Civ games. Can't wait to try out the game myself!

yea there's the whole ants mentality thing, they just keep coming..
so if you attack them early game, the smaller aliens will surround you, and then the bigger aliens might block your passage for expansion
this is really bad early game, because you have NOTHING that can kill the worm..

So is there a "campaign" like in xcom or is this just a choose map size and roll with it like civ?

it's on green man gaming right now for $37.. so if ya'll looking for a deal..
but.. overall.. I feel like... the military campaign is much more difficult now, because of this weird upgrade system.
so if you want a really good army, you can't do that mid game, because all the pieces can't be put together until late game...
so you kinda just gotta swing it with a mediocre army..

Freakin'''.. I finally got the Planet-Carver.. it's this game's orbital ion-cannon.. and this thing DOES NOT destroy alien Nests ?

just a heads up.. sometimes late game.. it will crash.. so save often..
also, late game.. sometimes you refine a tile, but the animation/tile refinements won't show up during the render process.. but the tile "is" refined..
