AI have overwhelming fleet power early on because they are capable of buying resources from the internal market for free

top kek

gg paradox

really?

yeah

that makes me feel less bad

is paradox gonna fix that though

no ide

they really shouldn't be allowed to have all that fleet power right at the start

the AI does it in both the current version and in the beta patch

you know what's really ironic about me being boxed in again

" by 2210, most AI have bought 500 alloys (5.28 each = 2640), 900 minerals (1.3 each = 1770), 300 food (1.3 each = 390), 50 consumer goods (2.3 each = 115) => total equivalent: 4915 energy credits, pretty much always in these numbers. They sold 0. And as much as I can say, they bought it in one go so one could say it's actually scripted. Advanced AI has 250 alloys and 600 minerals from the start in the market. This is equivalent to say they stand at a minimum of +30 energy credits/month since the beginning of the game while they are actually currently standing at +4 to +7 so it's mathematically impossible. I checked and there are too many AI going with this trope to be a research event related thing. "

nice

this test was on Ensign difficulty

btw

anyway i'm playing a medium size elliptical galaxy

remember how i gave zingly shit for not doing elliptical

yes

the game heard me

and it hates me

Special note: life seeded is dead from the start. On 2210 they have 0 resource and are under uprising with an outstanding -36 services, 0% happiness.

Life seeded AI just dies

maybe one of the ai that was immediately devoured by the swarm was life seeded Kappa

man i really need those starbase upgrade techs if i want to defend against a cheating purifier MonkaS

one good game.

and it isnt yooka laylee

also karp has at least one finger confirmed

Xenoblade is 2 games tho

isn't the bottom one dlc

It's dlc and a standalone thing right?

=standalone full game

dlc is included with it

Yeah

Good i didn't mess up then phew

Pika, would you be willing to stream this?

Positive reviews though

Has to be good

He hates boobs, remember

Loli Saga

sounds better

man there's some weird shit with the pop growth rate and migration

"When choosing a Species to grow, planets will generally prioritize Species that are under-represented on the planet and have Citizenship equal to that of the already existing Species."

Disgusting

having multiple species/migration sources speeds up the growth speed through migration but has a whole set of other issues

also there isn't any overflow for pop growth

Oh god, I made the mistake of looking at the ethics attraction weight modifiers

I think they fucked it slightly more than the last time I looked at it

oof

the quickest war in stellaris

of all time

fanatic purifier declared war on me, smashed itself on my starbase

and i force status quo

i'm literally destroying this authoritarian neighbor of mine by buying all his population

so you're going full xenophile then?

yeah

i've already stolen at least one pop from each empire that i can steal pops from

even the purifier has some pops on my planet

because the current state of the game, it really seems like you either go full open, migration treaty with everyone, or mono species

mono seems like it's really difficult

you really need to stack growth buffs and/or just go xenophobe

yeah

i just hate not having population

and probably get robots

i still refuse to go robotic

I don't necessarily mean go synth ascension

i know, i just meant go robotic as in generally have robots

i just really fucking hate robots

same

not same

I just don't usually both unless im materialist

also were you there when dialga said life seeded ai is dead from the start

I saw him type that here

yeah

i have a life seeded ai in this game and it's actually doing well
