I'm fine with that. It means I only have to relentlessly exterminate criminal megacorps, rather than literally every last one of them.

[Egan_BW]

No. You must destroy the capitalists!

[Kanil]

Meh. We're not too fussed what you do, as long as you keep it off our planets. The criminal ones show up without our permission, so we'll just inevitably have to do the same to them. We'll be a little less subtle about it, though.

What delineates "your" planets from "our" planets? Merely words and an easily broken social contract. The Hive is under no obligation to honor your claim to resources that The Hive could utilize more efficiently.

That's as may be, but you the collective follow the same intergalactic laws as the rest of us.
I mean, you're no devouring swarm, are you?  I think your neighbors would have... words, if that were the case.

We only want a little Earth and Water.

don't the game activly prevent you to move across borders? that coloured line is very very real, sadly.

Only if they block you from moving through (one of the first negative actions most empires take if you have less than 0 relationship)

so you could probably RP some sort of lore reason. Otherwise the lines don't matter.

Maybe you do but THIS. IS. SPARTA.

Sounds like some of the first impressions from early access LPers have started trickling out and it looks like the initial release of 2.2 is going to be hilariously broken.  I wish I could say I'm surprised, but I'm not, really.

It's all anecdotal, but reports of the AI sitting on massive stacks of resources 300 years into the game without building up their fleets is one example.  Apparently there are AI loops too that cause them to shuffle governors around, broken behavior with the automatically generated sectors and big performance stalls.

The devs say some of this has already been fixed, but I'm still expecting the initial release to be pretty broken with the AI at least.  If nothing else, that'll give me a chance to learn the new mechanics without the AI interfering.  Not that it did all that much before, but still.

Is it possible to not update?
I still have a game I want to finish on this version.

You can disable Steam's auto-updates. I imagine there will be a rollback beta too.

[Rolan7]

Apparently Steam removed the option not to update, for some reason.  The current easiest workaround appears to be setting it to "Update on Launch" (in the game properties, under Updates) and only launching the game while Steam's in Offline mode.

Edit:  Though apparently that doesn't always work - under some circumstances, the game (Stellaris, in the thread I read) may refuse to launch until going online and updating.  But it worked for a while, for that poster.

[Criptfeind]

Even if it forces you to update, although annoying, you can simply revert the file back to the current version and your save should be intact.

[forsaken1111]

Just keep a separate copy of your mods. Those are harder to revert to old versions.
