PS4 Pro doesn't have bluray?

4k Bluray. Which is odd since the new xbox one (the s?) has one and sony owns bluray.

Why not?

I've noticed that there has to be a vehicle available before you deploy in order to customize it. I really hope they fix that in the final game.

And 3 different types of "Collective Consciousness":

Core System +3
Research speed +33%
Army Morale +25%
Research Alternatives -1
Leader Pool Size -1
Leader Exp gain -25%
Core Sector -2
Migration speed -25%
Resettlement cost +25%


23) The Hierarchy (Fanatic Authoritarian, Fanatic Elitarian, needs special Trait "Slave Gene") - another representation of "Collective Consciousness" kind of society, genetically-enforced oligarchy, in which a few rules on the many through a caste system.

-50% ethic divergence
+25 leader lifespan

24) The Coalescence (needs special Trait "Brainchip") - another kind of "Collective Consciousness". True and, at some point, "democratic" kind of Collective - there is no actual hierarchy, everybody is unified and equally engaged in achieving common goal, which is pure Scientific Cognition (in fact, you can have neither Authoritarian nor Libertarian ethos in order to pick it - their form of society is absolutely unique and alien to everybody). Strong Research, but significantly limited Bureaucratic and Military options.

-25% army morale


II. OLD GOVERNMENTS

Especially I'd like to point out that I fully re-worked "Military Republic" and "Military Junta". I don't like vanilla representations of them, because their bonuses does not seem quite relevant. I mean, what is so special about military democracy, that provides bonuses for army and military stations? Or, for ships and admirals - to an oligarchy? So, i tried to re-think them and here is what I came up with:

1) "Military Republic" - I imagine that feature of the State which is military and democratic, might be that army is based on the principles of militia with lesser involvement of the State - citizens are self-organized and take care of their own personal armaments, which makes it easier for the Government to support.

-10% army upkeep
-10% ship upkeep
-10% military station upkeep
-15% ship upgrade cost
-15% shipreparation cost
+10% army morale


2) "Military Junta" - I imagine military oligarchy as the council of experienced war-chiefs and their high-qualified and highly-paid armies

+1 admiral skill levels
+1 general skill levels
+5% ship weapon damage
+10% army damage mult
+10% ship upkeep
+10% army upkeep



3) "Military dictatorship"

+15% navy capacity
-20% ship build time
+20% army build speed
+10% war happiness
+1 rivalry
+25% rivalry influence gain
+25% Military Theory research


4) "Theocratic republic"

-10% ethic divergence
+10% happiness
+2 core system



5) "Theocratic oligarchy" - old and wise council

-10% ethic divergence
+25 leader lifespan
+1 leader skill level
+15% leader experience gain


6) "Divine mandate"

-10% ethic divergence
-10% food consumption
+50% slavery tolerance
-25% resettlement cost
+25% influence gain


7) "Direct democracy"

+4 core system



"Science directorate"

+1 research alternatives
+1 core system
+1 empire leader capacity



9) "Despotic hegemony" - name was changed for "Cyber Dictatorship"

+10% research speed
+10% energy
-25% research station build cost
-25% science lab build cost

Ruler can build 10 Elite Cyborg Armies.


10) "Moral democracy"

+10% happiness
+10% peace happiness
+2 core system


11) "Peaceful bureaucracy"

+1 leader pool size
+1 leader capacity
-20% leader influence cost
-20% diplomatic influence cost
+25% statecraft research speed
+15% influence gain


12) "Enlightened monarchy"

-25% edict influence cost
-25% edict length
+1 core system
+20% influence gain
+1 embassy


13) "Indirect democracy"

+1 leader skill level
+1 Leader pool size
-20% leader influence cost



14) "Plutocratic oligarchy" - name was changed for "Corporatocracy", with it's icon accordingly, you've got to have "Capitalist" ethos in order to choose it.

+5% energy
+10% minerals
+10% influence gain
+1000 energy storage
+1500 minerals storage
-5% Power plant cost
-5% Mining network cost


15) "Despotic empire"

-10% edict influence cost
-10% edict length
+15% slave production output
+15% slave food output
+1 leader capacity
+1 sector cap

Yall are making me want Stellaris. Is it fun?

yeah, but like other paradox games by buying it early you'll have to wait for content updates and expansions to get some of the more interesting things that can be done with the game, although mods really help stellaris fill the gaps between official updates

so you can buy it now get your fill and return every couple of months when a content update comes out or wait a couple years and buy it for a reduced price with a lot of content updates already installed

Joke's on you, HoI needs no expansions to stay fun.

(now that all DLC is out)
