First of all : hey to all community as this is my first post.
Somewhere on this forum there was a thread from one of devs, about improvements to sins, but I just can't find it. Please feel free to move it to that topic.
Ok to the point now. I think there should be more in game information on games features. For exemple when I hover with my mouse over magnetic cloud there should be some frame that says "All special abbilities are disabled", when I'm choosing capship, and i hover over one of them there should be frame with its abbilities and I mean abilities with full description.
On tech menu there should be easier way to distiguish tech already possesed and those not - like red cross on them or some red border - something like that. Now it's hard to find out it.
When you create games (the menu on which you choose how hard are opponents) game should remember your choise, so that you don't need to change for example 8 players from normal to hard each time you want to play. Maybe some button to change all comp players at once?
Manual is bad. This game is really complex and after reading it you don't know many things. For exemple last game I won by diplomatic victory - I can't find any information what diplomatic victory is...
The final point is- not enough info to play efficiently. If i didn't read wiki and almoust all topics on this forum I would know almoust nothing about this game, and still i must remember many things that should be in game. This things makes the game unnecessary harder, and not in the difficult but in the tiring manner.
And i would really like some heavy penalty when someone breaks a treaty with you... I like to build my relatonships with other races and its sad that after hard work of getting them opponent can just say - oh i just don't need it anymore go to hell. Maybe some heavy penalty in cash. metal and crystal? The bigger the more pacts you have with that race?
