I thought you had a ship that was 100 to build new to 4500 to upgrade to, which would have been nuts. It's hard to say if 4500 is a lot without knowing what it'd cost you to build that fleet new or how much the designs are changing, but I talked about how the cost is calculated a couple of posts ago if you're interested.

Everyone seems to have forgotten about Victoria's Secret - including Wiz. Guess Paradox wasn't all that eager to break I to the creepy visual novel dating game market... Do want to know what he's moving on to though. New franchise maybe? Aren't both CK2 and EU4 nearing the end of their lifespans? When I read about the announcement I thought they meant podcat was stepping in, which was very confusing. But the HoI team is still intact so that good. Donno who this new guy is but he's apparently been very involved with the game so I'm sure we're still going to see great things.

MrL_JaKiri posted:Minor UI bug in the beta patch (and probably the live one too): when you have the Dev Swarm tradition that gives you an extra building slot, the "unused building slot" icon appears while you're colonising a world. There are some other issues with planets in the process of being colonized. I'm pretty sure once I was able to move a pop to a world that was still being colonized, and it started a new pop growing before the process finished. It also instantly caused a low stability warning on the planet.

Where shall we begin! I kid, I kid. Do wish Wiz the best! Even if he's likely to see it here too. The game has kept getting better and better under his direction and I cannot wait to see what he'll cook up with the new [redacted] project.

So it looks like I can colonize any old size 15+ planet regardless of habitability then name it a Resort World and it immediately jumps up to 100% habitiability as if it became a Gaia world?

wishing Wiz all the best because he deffo brought up The Good poo poo in the stuff he worked on and now I am hypebeasting - while Victoria 3 might not come, we all know that paradox has that economic focused grand strategy coming up and stellaris was just another step towards it new director has a badass name going for him, at least

It's going to be really, really interesting to see PDox try to make CK3/EU5. CK2 and EU4 have had so much attention that any sequel is going to seem completely barren on release; it'll be like the Civ problem but x1000. Like, the quality and scope of the games at this point is so high/large that any sequel by comparison is going to be a hard sell. It's going to have to happen at some point just to take advantage of Clausewitz advancements but geeze I wouldn't want to be on the marketing staff.

Paradox often makes test games before moving onto the big real project. 2.2 was the test to see if paradox remembers how to do more complex class-based economies. I wish Wiz good luck on Victoria 3. Actually I hope it's something totally nuts, like wiz has burned out on map games and is heading up Paradox's new tactical first person shooter team.

Hopefully this image works That's about 77 alloys per ship, which is probably half or less what you're paying for a corvette at this point. Replacing that fleet is probably going to run you 20k. How big were the changes?

The new game is Victoria 3 and nothing anyone says or does can convince me otherwise and it will be the greatest game ever made and the insane expectations will in no way ruin things.

My corvettes are going from level 2 lasers to level 3. And my destroyers are going from Plasma 1 to 2. I wouldn't say it feels huge, it definitely wouldn't have cost much or taken much time before.

There's something odd for sure with upgrades. I'll get like a new reactor type or new sensor type and pay a high but understandable upgrade cost. But other times it seems like I'm paying for the whole fleet and then-some. And absolutely slower than just building a new fleet.

I thought I was researching major upgrades but when I'd complete an upgrade, their combat rating would just go up by like 2% or some poo poo and it only took 5 years and 5000 alloy.

Yeah, upgrading doesn't feel right. I think someone upthread calcuated that you're better off deleting your ships and building new ones, because the maintenance you save is more than you save by upgrading.
