the other thread is on page 6 still
general consensus is 'mods better fucking save it because the devs won't'

cool... Now i will wait modders to fix the modder game

Why did Hydra make themselves known to humanity before being ready for combat, are they stupid?

I don't think any mod can fix the agent system or the time system. Seriously, why do devs keep trying to hybridize turn based and real time systems, it's always the worst of both worlds.
I didn't manage to get to space. I had no intention of interacting with the tedious agent system for dozens of hours.

AI controlled countries after one year:

They need to increase the value of countries and decrease the value of colonies on Mars, Martian mining towns are literally better than land in the game

>>2328433
this dev is an autistic that doesn't understand that a game need to end at some point,

>>2328481
If that was true he never would have added accelerated mode.
The problem is simply he thinks weeks of tedium is compelling gameplay.

>>2328433
The earth layer is entirely what drags the game down. When you actually get to space the game starts to be fun, but then you have to interact with earth again.

The servants have most the assteroird belt except for a few of them like Ceres which I have, in turn I have all the good sites on mars+merc. Should I be trying to go and wreck all these servant bases or just leave them be? They can't do anything in earth orbit at all.

>>2327352
I'm not wasting more time, the game is more boring now that ever.
>>2328524
>The problem is simply he thinks weeks of tedium is compelling gameplay.
That was The Long War gameplay and development, play the same fucking maps again, and again, and again, and again, and with every new version of the mod it got slower, and slower, and slower, and every valid strategy was "patched" away until you had to play exactly like they wanted.

>>2327388
>>2327446
Ironic, isn't it?

>>2327352
Now let's wait for mods to unfuck every shit element and rebalance that was introduced over past two years.
Can't wait for non-US strats to be viable once more. Remember when you could just do France, Japan and Singapore and fuck off from Earth post-haste?
Can't wait for streamlined tech tree that doesn't have bazillion useless techs to slow you down (because who needs more expensive techs when you can have more techs instead)

Are you limited with 5 agents for the entire game, or there will be more?

>>2328524
>accelerated mode
>still takes 40 plus hours to get anything done
and you better hope to not screw up early on because it will take around 10 hours until you notice you have to restart because a decision you made last week... Fun game design.

So many whining niggers on Terra Invicta threads.

this game is by autists for autists, if you don't want to spend 100 hours in a campaign only to realize you fucked up 20 hours in and that run is now impossible then you are playing the wrong game.

>>2328559
You will eventually need the volatiles from
the Belt, which you should get by marine-capturing Servant bases. However, you will be capped by the MC limit on mines so only take something like the top 5.

You get a sixth from a midgame tech.

Unit limit is fucking lame. That's why I don't play Total War - you can conquer the whole map but won't be able to deploy more units than when you started with 1 province.

>the 3rd ducks and weaves, dodges most of the fire and what it doesn't the PD shoots down. wrecks my entire fleet though I fully admit I'm new to the battles and suck badly at them.

Why didn't they all do that? The ayys truly using their maneuverability in combat is a sight.

>>2329305
>Why didn't they all do that
Maybe the two were meant to draw your fire (or maybe I'm giving the AI too much credit), or they were just a different class that couldn't duck and weave
Kinetics can't really deal with fast and small ships, so I always have some big laser ships on the flanks and in the rear to defend against them

>>2329304
>no more dumb kazakhstan meta
Which is stupid. The launch infrastructure is still there.
All the extra boost in the US also based on Starlink launches, which should be counted as bonus boost you can get from orgs.
For people who didn't want to make yet another America saves the world from aliens story, they've done exactly that with this rebalancing.

>>2329588
Oh, and they nerfed Centre Spatial Guyanais too, of course.
Because a US rush starting strategy needed to be the only winning one even more.

>>2329588
>Which is stupid. The launch infrastructure is still there.
Yeah but the rockets aren't, infrastructure doesn't mean shit

>>2329591
In what way did they nerf it? I'm certain even in the 2022 start way back when it started with like 0.1 boost and you had to build boost. At least now you get more orgs that give 1 or 2 boost on their own so needing a lot of boost countries early is less necessary.

>>2329588
Don't be dramatic. You don't even need to go US for boost. There's even a strategy where you burn the US to the ground to pour money into china and get in there then dump the US as it implodes.

Sort of, but the numbers are all fucked. China has a GDP that's 33% larger than the US now; not even the CCP's own numbers are that extreme. Russia's GDP is also not grounded in reality, with a 2026 GDP that's about 42% larger than it was in 2022. That's just pure bullshit that can't be excused with "oh but it's in a wartime economy," no, not even the Russian Central Bank is making that absurd of a claim. It also doesn't account for the impending stagflation, though TI's simulation is too simple and abstract to model the effects of that.
Meanwhile, every single Western country either got almost no buffs or is in worse shape than 2022. France, UK, and Germany got like 1% GDP growth in the past four years. Taiwan's GDP shrunk somehow. The US saw only a 5% increase to its GDP from 2022 to 2026. It managed to get a buff to boost, but it has absolutely dogshit cohesion now, lower than some countries that are currently in the middle of a civil war. This only incentivizes the player to max out the boost and spoils priorities to extract as much value out of the US as quickly as possible before you let it collapse into the inevitable civil war.
>in before some cunt says "yes but that's realistic for the US :^)"

If the devs wanted to make every strategy for every faction always boil down to "take over China ASAP and screw the rest of the world," they certainly succeeded.

Game needs some more difficulty. I think nukes need a nerf as people are throwing them around too casually.

I would say that in order to equip a ship with nukes, that the warheads have to be taken from a controlled nation on earth. So say you want to outfit a ship with 6 nuclear missiles then those 6 have to come from a executive controlled nation of earth. If you shoot those 6 nukes and want to rearm then it should cost again another 6 nukes from the stockpiles on earth. I would even go so far as to say they could only be resupplied in the earth-moon system with maybe a small boost cost as well since they have to lunched into space. Maybe even a small chance of an event where you transferring the nukes to a non governmental organization gets leaked to the press and you get an atrocity or public opinion loss.

>>2329769
The funny thing is there is zero penalty to the cohesion in the US hitting zero besides research tanking because a single agent can keep unrest down without breaking a sweat.

How do we convince Elon to expand SpaceX operations globally to improve game balance

>>2330093
By that logic, shouldn't you also be able to convert space-mined fissiles into national nukes? What would the exchange rate be? One unit for one nuclear barrage?

>>2330156
I think they ahould abide by the original concept of boost and make spacex type boost org only instead of boosting the US, especially if they're going to nerf kazakhstan because roscosmos is defunct.
The point of the game is seizing control of nations to reinvigorate their space programs with orgs being an off map bonus.

Following the Pretti Good rebellion and civil war to overthrow the fascist orange man, Kiran Banerjee stepped up to restore America. President Banerjee opened many Quality Learing Centres, provided free health care and opened MAID facilities. Those who disagreed with making America equal again were re-educated for alleged speech infringements. Those that were fanatically set in their ways were to seek MAID care. He also started many other programs to restore equality for all by redistributing wealth in USA. Things are looking good for America bros. We are prospering like never before.

Year is 2053, for a long time the aliens have completely dominated space and the world is mostly Protectorate, Servants or Alien Administration. I've been fast forwarding to watch them end the game but it seems like the Alien Administration is stuck at most 30% world control with no progress. I believe they they're struggling with very high insurrection. Is the AI just too incompetent to finish the game?

how chaotic is an 8 faction game? I always just stick to 3 faction games as I'm learning the ropes but it's the clear the game was balanced around more factions than that.

Sometimes europe becomes a bit of a thunderdome or you have to do some purging around china to get the cp bonuses but it's not what I would call chaotic at all. The AI predominantly focuses on easy to take countries first while the player tends to hone in on the big boys so you're almost always going after different targets.

The Chuds snatched Canada and Mexio pretty early as they were popular from the start. Fortunately I started off with a banger Diplomat and had 3 persuasion boosting orgs at the beginning so I was able to influence and take over USA. Their time will come.
>>2330524
I find focusing on top 2-3 national priorities works best, otherwise it takes far too long to progress what you need. You can swap these out based on your needs, for example I've currently switched to Mission Control in USA while my probes are on their way to Mars so that I can have enough Mission control for 6 bases there. Also getting a space station up early helps despite what all the youtubers say. 9% boost to welfare (or other priorities) from a single station at the cost of 1 boost maintenance is well worth before you get mines up.

Is restoring the ROC or making Super China better?

The penalty is you have to spend agent actions on it.

>>2330771
You're not using 100% of the nation's efforts though, just 100% of the investment points. You're not the Congress, you're the shadow cabal controlling the Congress through a series of intermediaries. 100% welfare just means you're directing slack capacity towards welfare, there's still budget being allocated to other things.

If you have a dedicated unrest reducer that's not really a waste since he's farming xp and if you have the us he doesn't have much else to do anyway. It's like "wasting" actions on advising.

One thing i dislike about Terra Invicta is how sometimes you would do something like Investigate Alien Activity mission and it just says something like "The site was investigated" instead of giving you a proper description of what happened. Couldn't afford to write a paragraph?

usually it does the first time you investigate a certain activity like ship crash, abduction ect... in a separate popup often with a voice over from the faction leader.

The other factions are similarly satirical except for maybe the Academy and Resistance. I mean Hanse is basically Don Quixote, just constantly spouting random military history facts and making phalanx metaphors and shit while his delusions angle him toward actually triumphing over a spacefaring alien civilization. The Protectorate's view that we probably shouldn't be fist fighting the bear that just walked up to us is at least reasonable, but the irony in their writing is that they're both the most idealistic and least imaginative faction. They want utopia but can't even imagine winning against the ayys. Making the authoritarian surrender fags liberals has aged rather poorly though.

Servants have an org to conduct abductions, plant xenoflora and construct bases. Building a base needs a certain amount of succesful abductions having been completed in the area first, just like for ayylmaos.

>>2331829
There haven't been abductions in ages either, maybe I should stop killing servant concuilers the second I find them then?

Yeah if you've locked down the earth atmosphere then ships can't crash to deposit aliens and if you kill servants, they can't spread it.

>>2332358
>anti-Servants that were very pro-alien but extremely cynical
that's just the protectorate
the servants are the servants because they believe they can peacefully coexist and heal the hydras or some shit - hence idealists
the protectorates are the protectorates because they don't believe that humanity can't win the war, therefore they seek a conditional surrender - hence cynics
>anti-alien like HF but super idealist
i can't see that happening, closest would be the academy because they want to beat the alien out of the solar system so they can forge an alliance on equal terms

>>2332372
>they don't believe that humanity can't win the war
they don't believe that humanity CAN win the war, rather

The alignments are pretty loose overall. Pro/anti alien and idealism/cynicism aren't really true descriptors. The protectorate isn't really pro alien, they just don't think humanity has a chance against them. It's kind of a shame the factions don't have branching paths because some of them would be more interesting if they had different objectives depending on how hard the aliens were winning/losing. Like imagine the protectorate sees victory is a possibility and flips to more of a resistance/HF stance. Or the initiative sees the writing on the wall and sides with the servants for a deal to preserve their own wealth and power in the new world.

Restoring the ROC lets you reverse their democracy score, which is probably better than just making the country really big. Like yeah, if you have decades to spare you can gradually invest into government, but by that point you'll already have finished the tech tree.

Fuck that was a great read, highly recommended. These people have unironically formed some kind of leftist bureaucratic cyberhell that they're all fully bought into and treat with the utmost gravity.

No it isnt, you just get a box and dump some spiders in it.

They did that shit in the 1930s

>this obtainable thing is unobtainable
Good talk.

If you don't take the spots everyone else will take them quickly no? My strategy was to send 1 colony with a mine and fission module ready and take the other 6 best spots then build the rest shortly after the first mine goes online

I assume you all have wardrobes filled with spider silk shirts since it's so obtainable.

This is what happens when you give jannies respect.

We have something way fucking better. It's called nylon, kevlar and teflon.
Next thing, you gonna blurt the classic "We don't know how Romans made their cement and it is superior to the modern one". Or go full in and claim "Great Wall of China is the only structure visible from orbit".
You dumb fuck.

Makes me wonder if it would be possible to mod TI to work more like a 4x/Paradox game with actual diplomacy mechanics between the factions. I'd love to see a mod with more focus on the space game, with the factions as established polities spread out across the solar system, and with Earth being just a minor battlefield in the grand scheme of things.

Just assassinated 3 of the Servant's councilors i hope this doesn't come to bite me in the ass, i don't have any fleets yet

How extensive is the modding support? Is it possible to put countries and borders on other planets? Or to change Earth's geography for a post global warming scenario?

>>2333174
lmao

How do i get the "Assault Enemy Space Asset" mission?

>>2333254
hire a councillor that has it or buy an org that gives it

>>2333323
nevermind you can assault with any ship with marine module. Councilor assault seems pointless then

>>2333383
I always have a raiding fleet stationed at every major orbital bodies in the solar system

>>2333029
That's an awful lot of projection there kiddo. Just admit you were wrong. We cannot infact make spidersilk into useful threads thus the mythical spidersilk thread is unobtanium.

First time the alien attacks it really is just a small paragraph. You would think the biggest event humanity ever faced would warrant a little bit more than that. It is extraordinarily anti-climatic. IMO should have been a big narrative event with special art and world-wide effects. Same thing for when alien administration forms, alien armies first land on Earth etc

>>2333383
Having a councillor leading the marines gives you an order of magnitude more exotics from raiding alien bases.

>>2333547
or you could just raid an order of magnitude more bases

>>2333551
You could do both and get two orders of magnitude more.
