Sorry to spam your board Stardock. If it's any concilation, I bought Gal Civ because I was waiting for MOO 3.

I've given up on MOO 3. Look forward to Gal Civ.

Ouch! Well, that will teach all the people who went out and got MOO3 before it was properly reviewed. (Which unfortunately includes me)

OMG they have worked on this game for 3 years and they could'nt even get the A.I to invade, which really makes the single playergame pointless. :sniff!:

I've been playing the game, in my free time, since the 26th and as all the minor and major annoyances added up I came to a realization.

The developers really didn't seem to care about the single player experience.

Many of the stupid, stupid things the game does wouldn't be issues if you were playing against a human opponent. For me that pretty much ruins the game because I have no interest in the multi-player aspect.

not invasion. just with fleets. it sent 3 ships against a fortified position. the ai in that game is broken.

The MOO AI can invade planets but only LATE game and you basicly have to open the door for them. I was getting WAY bored with fighting the mini fleets that they sent every turn to this one planet they Especially seemed to want. so I basicly abandoned the planet and waited and waited and WAITED. somwhere around turn 490 they finally did a ground invasion, and lost to the tiny army my vicroy had built. MOO 3 has to be one of the worst games I bought in the last few years. I am counting down the days for Gal Civ and have returned to playing my Beta Gal Civ while MOO3 set a record for a game being dumped in my reject box.
