Every Turn Counts I've provided a save from the very first turn of a Survival mode game. I was able to get 55 turns. Can you get further? To try it out here is the save: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18RWubDhiDutHC96M-BrOyyY7f5NWyf8P/view?usp=share_link Note #1: This is a multiplayer save (so we can try Survival mode) so it needs

[quote who="Larz4386" reply="37" id="3867959"] unfortunately, it still doesn't work. It gets stuck at the start screen. I have tried it in Testedition. [/quote] Drat, I will let the team know. Thank you. Feel free to DM me on discord (I'm Derek#7342) and we can discuss and see if there is something specific to your computer that might be causing this. I'd love to get this fixed, obviously if you are running into to it, others will too.

Love this feedback, thank you so much for providing it. We are a long way form release, this is just a Technical Preview and exactly the right time to get this type of feedback to the team.

The current version is super placeholder. It's why we put the "Under Construction" space pony there. We discussed cutting techs entirely from the Tech Preview just because this screen is so bad. But decided that it was needed to make the game at all playable. We didn't want to have the team spending any real time "cleaning up" this screen because it's going to be replaced entirely. So instead we provided a very placeholder version until the team has time to do it right, with a

[quote who="Larsenex" reply="4" id="3867790"] Thanks Derek! I know Stardock has many projects and it is nice to see one of their flagship releases still being updated! [/quote] Of course, we love GalCiv. Chad, the producer on GC4, is full-time on Sins 2 now and has been incredibly busy making sure that game is great as it starts the long march toward release. But we hired Joe, a new producer, with some great industry experience to focus on GalCiv. So expect to be seeing more

[quote quoting="post"] I paid for the pre-release beta. Do I need to repurchase the game to play the released version? Last time tried to log on with my previous laptop which I played the beta on I could not. [/quote] Being in the beta gives you full access to the release game. If you are logged into the same Epic account you bought the game with, you should see it in your library.

[quote who="CrazyTeapot106" reply="2" id="3867503"]Oh no, there is 8GB Shared menory, and I'm pretty sure the GPU on i5-1135G7 can run this game (see The Performance of the GPU in i5-1135G7 ) . This is a bug, not the lack of performace. [/quote] That won't work. Intel reports that as "shared memory" because it's taking memory from the OS to pret

Build more Orbital Research Stations. When Arctic Colonization says it requires "Research Level 3" it means you need 3 Orbital Research Stations. You can also raise your research level through some planet upgrades later in the game, but in general you need more Orbital Research Stations.
