Wish they'd stop putting multiple occurrences of one faction in game

It's like in Civ if you met the French, then you met the other French.



Not cool.



Maybe 'unique factions' should be an option for the first expansion (which will hopefully have more factions).

Completely agree. There should be an option available that prevents duplicate factions in single player games.

But while you wait you could always do it the old-fashioned way by picking the factions of the other empires at the start. That way you can either pick the enemies you like to face to make your life easier, or the ones you hate to make the game hard. If you don't want to influence the choice yourself you can always find some way of randomly picking them for you - for example a standard dice.

If I remmeber well, the devs stated somewhere that they have a weighted choice : once a faction has been randomly selected, it has less chances to get selected when rolling for other factions.

Don't think I've seen the same faction more than twice in a game so far. Much better than ES, games with 3x Sheredyn suck.

It still isn't the solution that people ask for - They want to eliminate the chance of dupes completely. And preferably without spoiling themselves during game setup.

It's strange cause Amplitude says it listens to people and we have all this games2gether stuff but people ask for a simple checkbox in game setup since forever and it's still not there. It can't be difficult to implement, seriously.

Is there some kind of road map or list of accepted features that would be implemented?

If that's true, the weighting is not strong enough. I've ended up in four player matches that had two pairs ofduplicate factions (one of them of course being myself), and six player matches with 3 copies of the same factions. With 8 factions to pick from, that really shouldn't happen quite as much as it seems to.
