Actual info about the combat from a WG dev on the official forums. So ramming speed is now a thing. Suggests "hybrid" means RTS that you can pause or slow.

Early Access Steam or GOG Feb 26th. Can't pre-order/pre-load as it is an EA game. For Quineloe here's a hot Russian chick talking about MOO4 for 15 seconds: Master of Orion ?????? - YouTube Edit: download is around 5.6 gb

It's turn-based but hybrid RTS for tactical battle per official forum. Ship design video is due out on weds, but the battle video may not be out before the EA release on Friday. However tactical battles will be in the EA release so we'll know what's up with it on Friday (though...

Always twitch to watch before you buy. Also @Gavin I wrote too quickly, the research is a hybrid: there are some techs where you research and then get a choice of one of two or three (example developers have shown is genetic mutation research gives you either heightened intelligence or psionics...

Seems to be the case that we're getting the game the Russians MOO2 fans want, which is not necessarily the game the US MOO2 fans want. Devs are much more involved with the Russian official board & etc. and I gather that Russian players were the origins of starlane movement instead of...

I wouldn't worry about the space lanes, after the upcoming combat video, odds are you'll never bother with MOO4. According to devs it is a hybrid TBS/RTS.

Relax.

Two more Victory condition screen (excluding Antarean Victory - which is supposed to be in the game in its final form AFAIK) Tactical Combat and Custom Races may be in at Early Access per this SS

Recent Images. Spoilered for ease of access. Races: First six available at EA release Trading Screen. Some new options like "Share Charts" Spacelanes and wormholes (previously called blackholes) Random shot. Random shot. Planet Management Screen

Wargaming giveth and Wargaming taketh away. Much is similar, but there are starlanes. Edit: No tactical combat at release, but it has been promised and def must choose research. Older build gameplay with the old everybody's creative tree (now gone - see Steam forums), end comment promises...

Choose Research Gavin.

Don't be going Full Jait and psych yourself into hating the game before you've even played. AFAIK, Tech is still one of two or three choices at each level, unless you're creative. If this is still the case, then it means even more difficult tech choices.

Immediately relevant. They even have tech for some kind of mini-station for guarding them as well as setting up fleet blockades Edit: see this->Empire Defense | News | Master of Orion. I suppose that's nice for giving you an extra turn warning before you're attacked. I'm guessing the...

Mmmmmm. Snake Oil....

Meh. The $$ on voice talent is further proof that this is the wargaming head guy's passion project which is far more likely to yield something really interesting than giving to to Firaxis.

It looks better than MOO3 which is enough for me to purchase early access. Whether it'll have the staying power of MOO2, who knows. Main issue on the forums are starlanes (which were in at last report), issue I gather is that starlanes are tied to an Orion tech (instant travel) Perhaps to make...

Frogloks have merged their genes with the Sakkra apparently.

Anything is possible. Also it's the pricey CE version that's available for early access, poor folk have to wait for the standard version. Also

We'll find out Feb 26th. From the FAQ:

Early access Feb 26. Steam and GoG. Latest marketing trailer. https://youtu.be/KhzlgohX2SM

Eh. Recent updates look good. Seems reasonably true to MOO Universe. I'm guardedly optimistic. Master of Orions Economy | News | Master of Orion

No, it only seemed that way. I drank the Kool-Aid for a couple of months after FanFaire before coming to my senses. Large scale desetructible terrain is a terrible idea for an MMORPG, great idea for a smaller game or as a limited feature to some of the instanced content in an MMO (Raid X, Y, Z...

There are better things one can do than just kidnap for ransom money...

Thanks. I found what I was looking for on Steam's forums. The Nordic site isn't helpful because all the recent updates/discussions were on the runeforge site which is now (apparently) shutdown. The Legacy Mod 2.01 for Renaissance (For Patch 4.211). Requires...

Got this off of GoG and have started playing it - searched but didn't find a thread here (but maybe that's a result of the name). It's an older game but (1) developers finally released the patch that fixed a bunch of major bugs (that previously required a bunch of fan-mods to make playable)...

Lol. Just lucky I guess.

He should be, and is. It is a constant reminder of his racism and now of yours.

Fascists, just like you, the ACLU, SJWs and the rest of the Authoritarian Left. Then only difference between them and you guys, is that y'all try to cloak your urge to control others under the guise of "equality." But who's kidding who, y'all would send the Right to concentration or...

You ever heard of this thing called the US Constitution son?

Lol. Wearing your brownshirt proudly I see. You, and oh yes the ACLU too, along with most of the Authoritarian Left these days, want to control people on the Right and tell them what they can and cannot do and can and cannot believe. That's fascism. No different than the fascist shit that...

Seriously? You trying to pull this shit right after a co-pilot just suicided by plane by plowing it into the first mountain he could find leaving debris and bodies everywhere? And he did this because the other pilot was using an axe to break into the cockpit. And you and most of this forum...

No, as I indicated from the beginning it's about control. To put it in words you might understand: it's about fascists like you who want to impose their belief systems on everyone.

Liberal tolerance.

You're welcome to cite where I advocated refusing service based on orientation, race or anything else? I stated that people should be allowed to discriminate under the 1A. But that's a distinction you deliberately ignored. Seems like all you guys like to argue in the same way: ad hominems...

Give me a fucking break. We are talking about using the coercive power of the State to force people to do things that are against their beliefs that are not otherwise criminal. We are not talking about criminal activities like theft, rape or murder. We are talking about some twit who...
