Master of Orion

Couldn't get past turn 36 as the game would keep freeezing on AI turn. I expected a bit more support out of Wargaming free 2 play money coffers. MAybe with the "unofficial patch", it would work. Who knows? I may as well install the latest unofficial patch for Moo2.

absolutely BONKERS!!! I've put 400+ in the game. You can micro manage as much as needed or as little as possible. Great way to kill a months worth time.

Update: I reverted to the original version and it works great. Just unable to use mods. If the game doesn't work for you try reverting to the original version. This game should no longer be sold. I bought a new computer and now the menu screen won't load. I have tried every trick listed in several forums and nothing works. Looks like I am not the only one... It's too sad. This is one of my favorite games.

I'm not opposed to change and innovation, especially if it makes a game better. Unfortunately this is not the case here. I will say right off the bat, the game is still enjoyable. First off, I'm not at all a fan of space lanes. I can appreciate that it adds new tactical elements to the game and allows for choke points. Second, where did freighter fleets and extra solar system trading go? This makes establishing early colonies and growing them ridiculously slow. Play a game of MoO2, the freighter fleets are sorely missed. Synthetic/Android population has been removed. Again, painfully missed when growing and expanding an empire. The space combat is just, well, unit control is pretty terrible The move away from turn based combat did nothing to make space combat more enjoyable. Removing the option of boarding/capture parties is sorely felt, The camera controls are borderline awful. No tech gains from salvaging opponent ships or capturing their colonies. I'm glad they introduced a more refines spy system, yay. However dismantling enemy ships and capturing enemy colonies was a great and realistic way to try and catch up to stronger foes. You can change the victory conditions, but if you don't notice... the game is actually too short, forcing a winner as the game is getting good. The lack of Hall of Fame and high scores are missed. It would be nice if you could change the end game settings and 'save' them so you could quickly and easily play at your preferred game setting. On the up side it is pretty and when it is not being buggy it plays fairly fast and easy.

Light and easy 4X. High production values too.

Its watered down moo, but its moo. The only change I absolutely don't agree with is movement by links, which is a big change. Tactical combat feels better in Moo2, and I personally think they need to stop real timing evereything. The moo2 system was much better.

si juegan con amigos no confien lo mas probable es que les tengan espias en sus planetas y cunado los descubran se va a transformar en una ezquizofrenia absoluta XD
