Comparing the the tech trees of each race

from GalCiv3 Forums

Is there a way at this point to compare the Tech Trees?

 

I know GC2 had a tool where comparing the different tech trees of the different races was possible. Edit: The tool was Galactopedia.

 

Feedback for Stardock:

I think at this point, the different tech trees need to make each race more unique. Right now there, isn't as much distinguishing the different races, less I would argue than Twilight of the Arnor right now.

 

I'm hoping that will change in the future though.

 

What we need:

  • More unique improvements/projects per tree
  • Perhaps each tech tree could have different powers, such as one having more powerful missile weapons (or lasers or guns at the expense of the others), one having special defenses
  • Perhaps certain special bonuses as well or special modules 
  • Themes for each race, ex: each of the icons for buildings looks a certain way

 

I'd be open to the idea of a super ability as well at some point for each of the races.

Screenshot them maybe? Anyways doesn't seem to be that much difference. Some get techs one age faster, a few special techs here and there, and that's mostly it. There are still more to be done with the tech trees ;)

Yeah, the tech trees are not unique. You change some names and make some stuff appear earlier or later and adjust some numbers...that is all. No special weapons, no race specific ship parts or diplomatic options, nothing. Just a focus on more influence or not etc.

Yeah I used the XML to take a look and it does seem like work is needed here. I will leave this as feedback for SD.

Not sure if there is a way to move this thread or if I should make a new one if the Future Ideas section.
