Ah, slaves. You can never have too many slaves. They also make a good food source.
Yeah, it seemed pretty good to me. Better than vanilla in any case - expect the AI to be aggressive and blob. It will even take on fallen empires in midgame and win.
I don't like playing games where the AI cheat. So I play Ensign too.
You know, the funkiest thing about utopian abundance is that i just spam real estate everywhere and tend to forget to micro things for years at a time until i need to increase production of whatever.
So, I didn't have the time to play a lot but in the bit I played I met two neighbors, an Evangelist Zealot who immediately hates me immensely and some Ruthless Capitalists who are not very fond of me either but are more scared of the aforementioned Zealots.
the question is wether this thing on ensign/nocheatsmode is fun to fight against because fuck you
Told you the AI is pretty good. I found the challenge neat until late midgame when everyone and their granny decides to hop into federations. Federation fleets are such fucking bullshit, I tell you. But even so, using strategic chokepoints, I could handle fighiting off several empires at once, along with them spamming attacks through L-gates. But then two fucking federations DoW'd me at once, both having those absolutely ridiculous federation fleets of around 50 battleships, and at that point it was basically game over. Will play on ensign instead of captain the next time.
I usually grab the european phenotype mod (gotta mod it a bit myself to make it work with newer version) for my human games, and StarNet for the AI
alphamod or nothing.
Can the AI even play all that new stuff?
