Poor Press

Custom maps are possible. Controlling the number of AIs can be done. Starting resources must be controllable since there is already a tech for it in GW.

We might even be able to play with win conditions by intercepting notifications and ending the game if certain conditions are met.

I am now seriously considering doing some GW modding!

I don't particularly care about any of that.

I want the enemy to move around and have counter attacks and whatnot. I want there to be a strategy to the turn based side of GW like was promised.

GW is a really really cool concept and I am super excited about what it could/should be. Just not quite there yet.

lol i had a game against 2 ais (not on the same team) both relentless, and 1 was like super annoying nuked the hell out of me and 1 well he has done things on his planet but thats it so 1 ai was ok the other was errr fine? i guess .
as for game and ui bugs yes i know there's plenty but this game has so much potential u gotta give it a chance
im sure in the future all of those bugs will be a thing of the past , not to mention all of the new features we'll get XD (hopefully)

Please share the information you seem to have on that bug with Uber.

I'm not the biggest fan of GW as it stands, but as a big fan of Dark Crusade let me tell you that while you might think you want this feature, you really don't.

It can be quite annoying.

Edit: Also, you can have a GW with 240 star systems.

Maybe because the picture is borrowed from a PCGamer article written in October last year (http://www.pcgamer.com/planetary-annihilation-review/) and not from Nerd itself?
However it would be interesting why the little texture is missing on this shot.

Well the whole "Galactic War" part of galactic war is all just written in javascript, so like I was saying it should be possible for anyone with web development skill to just replace the whole thing. I know that's not the same as having Uber do it for us, but I get the feeling that they don't have enough people to do everything. It makes sense that they would focus on parts of the game that we can't fix ourselves.

I've also had the static bug a few times, and I generally keep my graphics drivers up to date. I maybe suspect my graphics card a little bit, as this one time it was playing up a lot, and I removed the GPU, blew some compressed air into it and reseated it and it seemed to solve it somewhat, but I have had the bug a couple of times since then.

In my version you actually can't see the planets at all, only the unit icons and that static texture in the background, so it is pretty hard to play.

You may take a look at the support thread:

it happens maybe 1/200 games that I play - it takes me a bit to reproduce it...

How do you even get these bugs?? I haven't crashed in ages and the only bugs I see are AI- and I have never seen nor heard of the static bug until now.

you must not play enough, then

or have an AMD card. Seems those do not get static.

I can personally guarantee you it's possible to win .

I had an R9 280 that I bought 6 months ago, it came dead on arrival and I decided not to buy anymore AMD cards until they improve the current architecture a bit more.

I have had the static bug twice and had to exit the game and restart to resolve it. I only started playing a week or so ago. Other than that I have not really experienced any major bugs and have had a really fun time with the game, being an old school TA and TA Kingdoms fan. I dont really do multiplayer, but I'm able to stomp the AI on hard already.

What about Uber?

Planning to bump the difficulty as I keep learning the game. I'm currently reading about mods. Thinking about making some changes to Galacitc War if any of that is exposed and moddable.
