No direction in playing

from GalCiv3 Forums

I played the game for hours, but found that i don't  get a ida what ships are gonne be build, possible with the research
The menu's of the ships are one long list and the same for the building on the planets..no filtering
No help for the possible building goals on a planet
The research tree is a endless tree to choose from and i get no direction there what i am after for ..sayfor example  building a assualt ship

It feels all ..aimless with the sparsemanimenu and also the shipdesigner is minimal as it seems
A userunfriendly experience.. iam hoping that it will be improved in the future updates

Makes that i am not forelooking to play again a new game...a poor experience

Ok solved ..the research is working as it should ..no still problems and the game seems to be hanging twice ( or does it take a lot of time ?)I restart and the research tree shows a tech what is lit , while the tech before is not lit ? ( the whole bracnch is not lit ).

I do not communicate with other races ..can it that i got a tech from another race what stands positive toward me.
Is it possible to get techs form other races without communicating with them ?

Hey Marigoldran

If you want to share more of your strategy insights .. let me know, because now i am not a strong opponent in a multiplayer game but that can change if i learn more.

Although when i should play a multiplayer game against you it is likely that we both play the same strategy, or do you have more strategic magic in your sleeve ?

Yes.  I have other ideas up my sleeves.  

Hell, I'll challenge both you AND Echillion and beat both of you (while you two work together).

I play now on a tiny map with random stars ... i try to follow the same strategy as with the large maps..minimal research for colonybuilding( all that colony research/building handling ..pff ) ..and maximal research for warships building at the right game phase. ( it goes fast here..forplay/midplay and endplay )  
There is no new colony building possible.. so influence become important..and all fine details of the constructor placement.
Also (i try) all mining and crystal resources are occupied by me..
 
Now i allow myself to have communication with other races.. i managed to be with all on friendly terms
I build three warships only.. and it seems that i am already the strongest in this mini galaxy :thumbsup: ..some more fleetlogistics and a 3 more warships for attacking ?..or shall i attack immediately right now with the 3 ships ..but how about enemy starbases defense or planetery defense ..some information about this, can be sorted out..

Playing on tiny/small ..bigger maps can be a good strategy to learn (is a learning principle) ..because we go from simple to complicated.

I'd suggest saying 'early, mid and late game' generally. Foreplay has a rather different, specific meaning in English.

America and Holland ..time difference ?

Battling in nasty underdog position with only 2 colonies -- the dreadlordsfleet  are around now in the vincinity of a shipyard..when do they attack ?
Money shortage makes that it is difficult to build up a fleet.. ( i must now precisly figure out for the future how many  starbase can be around the homesystem with two planets)
I add a economic/manufacturing module tothe starbases...

If the dreadlordfleet attacks...yes, after a while they keeping coming...destroying all
