fuck
i'm out
can't do anymore

maybe a later date tho
in a few months probably

Venticular

well I just got the game, and vanilla seems really fun so far
mods should just fix some of my peeves

Venticular

>raiders having a deep talk while fighting centipede
"Yo dude, ever wonder if mechanoids are actually controlled by people?"

Venticular

so bionic legs, arms, and eyes increase movement speed, manipulation and sight
what do bionic organs do?
make them better at living?

also a late RIP in pieces to hanz
always remembered for being retarding and going insane during a siege and promptly throwing themselves into the crossfire

Venticular

ayy lmao
I'm in
what kind of things are they good at?

Venticular

oh
well
so you haven't gained anyone since the start, you've just lost two people?
going great

Venticular

Wait, who is that Pompadour person in the screenshots?
Did you rescue them from the initial wreckage? I may have missed it while skimming through previous posts

Venticular

Well alright then, named recruit Bjorn Selander
Also is it possible for me to become a fully bionic man? As a kind of end goal?

Venticular

Wait can I put my name in and get a recruit named after me?
Or do you design the dude and then put him in?

Cause I want in

Paradox is great and extremely active with their fanbase, especially on digg. For example, they originally weren't going to include map modes at all, but they say they will include them in a patch after release if enough people want them. Also, the AI looks really smart and should be pretty hard to ...

Venticular

they did

Venticular

also even if the game flops (which it might (but probably won't)), already there is talk

meme that is slightly out of context
am I memeing right?
I need more memes I'm sorry

Venticular

All red, or "dangerous" techs, can cause late game disasters, such as Jump (or Yump, as said in the stream) Drives or sentient AIs. Not sure what exactly triggers them, could be certain factors with how strong the strongest non fallen empire is.

What if it never does?

I guess if it never does for like 20 years of jumping around, you can just go "fuck it' and invade them.

Venticular

save the multiplayer game related memes for the steam group, this is for general stellaris discussion
also because the game hasn't been released yet, I had to release some emergency placeholder memes

Venticular

that's probably it, since .science was a temporary domain, and I guess MSO has been working on this change for the main site for a while now?

Venticular

looks right on my screen, what are you talking about?

Venticular

The declaration of war is to draw their fleets to your borders, where you rip them to shreds, while the jump ship tears a hole through dimensions and the extra dimensional creatures rape their empire that they can't defend because their fleets are dead. Also I doubt any player or AI empire will be v...

Venticular

I'll create a group.
What should we call it?

Venticular

Earliest I can play is 15:30 CST, which is 21:30 GMT, so at least six hours after release.

Venticular

According to a Paradox IIRC, 17:00 CET. So 15:00 GMT.

Venticular

I'm not sure, I'm pretty sure I got it while lurking on the forums or subreddit.

Venticular

Wait if it's coming out 5:00 pm GMT, what time are we going to play? (GMT)

Venticular

By the time your leaders begin reaching maximum default age, you'll be getting techs that increase leader lifespan - so we will have to see. I only go for min max builds in multiplayer because it usually gives me more flexibility in what to do. After the first game I get more creative in single play...

Venticular

Ricotez is CEST, Central European Summer Time. Not CST, which is in the US. Also, I vote yes to the AI. The AI seems extremely smart, as it has beaten its creator, Wiz, multiple times tactically. (Skynet? Sky... help?) also we would have to care how much we steamroll each other. If we steamroll each...

Venticular

yeah I don't know where I got heinrich from
I couldn't remember his name, so

Venticular

swedish beard/10 would bang

wait that's not even wiz that's the main producer like Heinrich or something

Venticular

My min maxxed high techiness and lawyers will make a utopia for everyone whether they like it or not (i changed it up a bit so scientists can be leaders which means empire wide science bonuses)

Venticular

Also, being a day 1 game, we will probably be going full meme machine mode...
and diplomacy does not work on a meme machine

Venticular

I'm not ordering you to use that or whatever
use whatever
today has been a day for me
sarcasm or whatever

Venticular

Glad to know I'll be fighting against my own creation, oh tedward. When you choose the species portrait be sure to choose these fungal zombie guys
EDIT: To be clear, this is cool. I just needed to steam some sarcasm

Venticular

THE FUCK DO YOU WANT
THE FUCK ARE YOU LOOKIN AT

Venticular

If we ever do another mutliplayer play through, I have another idea for a hive mind of pacifist fungally infected zombies. So yeah.
Being a pacifist might be an interesting gameplay choice from "SHOOT SHOOT KILL INVADE"

Venticular

Also those Ethos and Government - he has made space ISIS!

WE MUST RISE UP AND DEFEAT THE JIHADISTS WITH COINS

Venticular

Honestly my Molluscoid Attorney-At-Laws will make good friends with your Jewish Pingus.
My Scallopions will be more or less peacful, but if they see a good oppurtunity to acquire an "asset", they will.
Also >20% research output bonus

Scrub, you forgot about the names!: Empire Name: Scallophead & Co. Galactic Law Offices (Better Call Scall!)

So during the weekdays (in CST) I can play fairly regularly from about 3:45 PM to 7:00 PM
Won't play at all on saturdays
Can play from 5:00 PM to like 10:00 PM on sundays (then off to sleep for early morning activities, yay)

Also I doubt all of us will hate it - if any of us at all really.

Venticular

Well, I might be able to fix it or something. The point of that post was to say that I wouldn't be able to speak over teamspeak. I'll work something out, It's fine.

EDIT: Fucking Ninja'd by Anon

Venticular

I am in CST
Also my mic is fucked in the ass and it'll be a while until I get a new one, soooo...

Venticular

Multiplayer comes with the game, pretty sure.
We should organize some kind of group chat beforehand to decide a time to come together
what has this thread come to?

Venticular

I've seen An0n3's old videos...
The whole squad is here

(RIP Tsaricide)

Venticular

come join the circlejerk

Venticular

Yeah, I think as your empire expands different sub species will be created.
Some may just be aesthetically different, like different color shrooms, or they may have different traits or ethos.

Pretty fucking cool.

Venticular

Are you talking about the Blorg streams?
If so, then I'm pretty sure only Wiz is a dev coder
cKnoor is... cKnoor.

Also, there are late game possible extra galactic or even extra dimensional invaders.
Time to band together to fight the invaders but ultimately still continue killing each other!

Venticular

The hype level is extremely high.

Also,
>fallen empires
>protectors of technology
>protectors of religion
>protectors of something else
>in general will fuck your shit up

Venticular

actually that sounds amazing, I've never done that kinda thing before

I always watch let's plays or tutorials years in advance of playing

I'll PM you and shit

Venticular

Hey Anon3, I'll play multiplayer with you because I don't have any steam friends or any friends at all

though I'll probably need to play a campaign first to figure out shit
