Master of Orion: Collector's Edition

Can you guys make an Angel Race please :) I did not know where els to wright this.

I'm offended by the aggressive attachment of the classic name to this game, which has nothing in common with them. It's almost as big of a travesty as X-COM: Interceptor and XCOM: The Bureau (neither of which, you may note, did well). Movement restricted to warplines? "Realtime" tactical combat? Bleah. Taken on its own merits, this looks like a credible, if unoriginal game in the "turn based strategy/"realtime" tactical" 4X space game subgenre. But it is unoriginal, so its only claim to fame is the use of the classic title, which is a flat out lie.

Now a lot of people just want a remake of MOO or MOO2 (I was literally still playing MOO2 in 2015 before I even heard of this games development) and to address them, firstly yes it is different, secondly no you can’t just travel in any direction. But this is a good thing, being able to travel a limited distance due to fuel constraints added the strategy to the previous games, but NEVER actually having to send ships back for fuel didn't make any sense, this game has used a tried and tested system of warp points (see games such as space empires or escape velocity to name ones of the top of my head), Now this warp point system (at least if you've played it with a spiral galaxy) creates choke points and boundaries through unstable warp points only accessible later in the game. adding strategy through colonising and building outposts. Is this MOO2 with a new coat of paint NO, is this a new game a different from its predecessors as each other, YES, and anyone who thinks this is, as big a disappointment as MOO3 has their head so firmly entrenched up their own arse they probably couldn’t tell the difference between a klacklon and a Silicoid (yet to be included in development). Now this game is in development, if you have a problem with it send in a rationalized reason why they should take you views into consideration, and if they may very well consider it, don't sit there and bitch about it rating a predeveloped game by the argument it wasn't like that wet dream you had about it. Now i have been playing Master of Orion 2 since its release well into 2015, if this game delivers half of what its promised so far, i can say its likely i will never play MOO2 again. And thats about the highest compliment i can pay any game.

It's very similar to MoO2 in many ways, but not in others. First up let me correct Dylfin... there is starvation if you don't have enough food importing or growing. I don't know what game he played but that's totally there. The tactical battles are clearly not finished yet but in the latest dev blog they're talking about those improvements. Remember, this is Early Access... The game is beautiful and the sound is eargasmic, but the AI isn't finished yet. If you're on the fence, wait for a bit but I'm already certain this game will turn out great for release.

It's a good choice if you like Civilization series. However, space battles is just a formality, in fact it's a simulation without any participation from the player.
