ET Thursdays and Anticipation

[KonradKurze202]

The typed in names of naval forces keep reverting to unfriendly ones. Will this be fixed?

Wiz calls out the need to fix this, so either he or someone else will no doubt do so.

In games with naval elements there are usually battle fleets but many ships on other duties in smaller "fleets" for various purposes. Maneuver can be very important, but in some games the power stack wins. Would like to see more of that.

Can a rebellion be supported by non-military means such as trade deals, espionage activity etc.? Or an enemy undermined? "Support Rebels" is quite useful. To get the Just League to Just GIve Up some prior undermining seems in order.

Not as of now

BTW What kind of espionage other than routine scanning Is there in the game?

None at launch. There will no doubt be an espionage DLC sometime after release. The most DLC requests/ideas/hopes I see are for Trade, Espionage, and Migrant Fleets.

It occurred to me that ET Thursdays has become the entertainment related thing I look forward to all week. I was never really one to get excited about shows, with a couple of notable exceptions. And I'm pretty sure while the hype for the game plays a solid part into it, I actually really enjoy seeing the antics of @Wiz and @cKnoor on the stream.

Spoiler: Last Stream Spoilers

I am really really excited to see how things turn out when the war kicks off against the Just League.

Seriously. To hell with those Jerks.

So thanks guys for making a really great Stream. Can't wait for Thursday. Also - can't wait for May 9th.

I'm waiting for "Kirov Reporting!" from @cKnoor

I absolutely hate that each Thursday is Keeping Up With the Blorgfriendshians and that I love every minute of the broadcast.

And why exactly would he say that?

 

[Vasious]

Please to not be Tomb World
Please to have space-age humans just not inventing FTL yet
Please to Blorg uplifting
Please expat human pops party resort on Blorg homeworld
Please senpai Blorg notice us

I was going to bet it would be a radioactive tomb world, but this is better

Friendships are invading befriending good bad guys

I totally agree that the tomb world Earth would be way less fun than having pre-space age humans.

The Blorg are like a fungus - they grow on you.

You know, it would be fantastic if the Blorg encounter a primitive race on Earth.

I too look forward to the blorg streams, and actually seeing an actual war was pretty good I liked what I seen. I can't wait to see more streams of the Blorg with Wiz and CKnoor. I don't know about anyone else but I would really like to see more Blorg play through with Wiz and Cknoor even after Stellaris has launched and just keeps going.

100% this.

I am legit avoiding these forums for the next few days to avoid spoilers while I wait for the last stream to be posted on YouTube.

I know the whole thing is up on Twitch, but I like having an episode to look forward to every few days. Keeps the hype alive.

Given that they've announced a little competition for fan-made banners for the blorg stream it likely means they will continue for a bit after the game release.

However, they said there would be no stream on Thusday 5th May due to a public holiday in Sweden! What sort of a holiday is it without Blorg?!? What will we do that Thursday?!?!?
