    The main thread about this is located in Community forum. Thought you might want to know. (alpha.owo is the old SMAC website).

    Its not worth it. Every thread seems to be *****ing about how bad the game is, how buggy the game is or how Firaxis are screwing us for $$$.

        To be fair none of the complaints are innacurate. AC did ship with a shocking amount of completely game ruining bugs, and some of the most abysmal AI since... well Civ2. In fact many of the most strange and baffilingly obvious problems are still here today, five patches later.

        And remember that those are the bugs that are obvious on the surface, the more subtle issues like probe rollover and getting cheated out of tech-tree choices in directed reaserch won't be apparent in the first few months.

        The people left discussing it and enjoying it today are those that are willing to put up with its flaws to enjoy the masterpeice beneath.

            Eh, just as it happened with CivIII and CivIV or nearly any other game ?

              no, the tech CHOICES in directed research not being offered even though you earned them.
