5. Reseach is also connected. You could buy alot of science buildings but the footprint will ruin you so you gain knowlege exstremly slow compared to how much reseach there is.
Which means you cant advance Or buy the 0 Distance upgrade which u need already now at 6 planets but it costs ¤#%¤#&%
Its a fun game but the endless circle sucks the fun out of the game when you advance but end up exactly where you were.
FIX Increase culture on every building by *2-3 or more or decrease new plantes culture so it only jumps by max 3-4
4. The size of new planets included doesnt fit with how much culture you have to buy come up with and the footprint it generates. A new planet have maybe 13 Gha and I have 22,7 now and then it takes maybe 11 Gha in Joy/avalability,identity and a bit of wealth to get the planet included.
I end up having only gained 2 Gha when i spent more than 10 to get there. Then it because POINTLESS im back to where i started near the limit of Land vs footprint balance = endless circle
FIX: increase size of planets *2-5 or decrease the footprint of everything by a factor of 10
2. This means you are running a MUCH higher footprint than you empire can afford because you cant get new planets included because you dont have Culure. And the higher the footprint the higher the cost on eveything = bad circle
FIX: Make increasing land buildings cheaper by a factor of ALOT OR decrease the footprint of especially economic buildings but also everything its stupid when a building have a Gha of ½ 0,5 then thoose 10-20 u have is gonna run out REALLY quick
3. The culutre needed to make a planet included increase by 3,4,5
up to 6, for each new discovery like 6,42,154
And to increase culture you have to buy stuff which increases the footprint even more! not by as much as economic buildings but still.
First i like this game it has the potential to so great and the longevity of it.
But it has several flaws: The culture/land /footprint problem
1. There is so much reseach and stuff to buy BUT in the wealth section there is only up to Local Group Trade Alliance which gives 100k/s. That is simply not enough when the footprint for getting 1 new local group trade alliance is 3 Gha. Becuase you have to chainbuy 1000 of the first 500 of the next etc. which only mounts up to 1 LGTA which gives 0.10 added income when some things cost BILLIONS!?!
FIX: Increase the income from buildings times *10 or decrease the footprint from income buildings by 10
