Super Starbase and Galactic Wonders

Posted on Friday, May 29, 2015

There are some things missing from Galactic Civilization 3 I feel could quite possibly be added in future patches or expansions.

 

  • Super Starbase having the ability to produce at the very least 1 Super Starbase per faction to prioritise a strategic point, whether that is protecting a planet or protecting several mining points and more.. A Super Starbase could have the ability to produce ships without a shipyard the ability to mine resources at an increased rate as well as having a greater sensor range to counter missile bombardment ships.

 

  • Galactic Wonders introduced similar to Civilization 5 would be a nice addition, since Civ 5 had World Wonders such as the great wall , or the great fire wall or the great library to name a few each wonder giving a special bonus to the faction controlling this wonder.

 

  • Dead Worlds converted to Minor worlds Civilization 5 had its minor city states in conjunction with its Main city's these being minor states not able to conquer but to influence and have benefits of them helping you grow, all these dead worlds we see throughout the current map could be minor small worlds we cant take over but can possibly influence to help our evolving Civilization grow.

 

  • Pirate Home Worlds Would be nice to see some pirate home worlds spread throughout being an annoyance to both the player and cpu factions alike to help keep a balance in power, they could be strategically placed to guard the few strategic resources throughout the Galaxy so that a player or cpu faction has to earn the right to mine this resource by defeating the pirate world and its Starbase or Shipyards.

 

 

I like Galactic Civilizations 3 right now it has come a long way since beta however I can not help but think that it needs that little bit more to give the player an over all satisfaction to running a Civilaztion and to achieve certain mile stones such as capturing all the Galactic Wonders, or Influencing all the minor Worlds instead of lots of dead worlds useless and taking up map space.

 

Maby eventually atleast some of these will be added in future edition of Galactic Civ 3.

 

Thanks.
