FAQ - Endless Space

9 years ago

The AI does not learn game on game (that would pose specific problems if you could "program" the enemy AI to react the wrong way to something), and isn't given reactionary bonuses.

Above normal difficulty, AI factions get bonuses to FIDS to help them keep up.

The AI does have a much heavier focus on building up fleets, which might be why your first encounter was unfortunate. Upon meeting another faction, I would recommend trying to strike a peace deal. :)

Frogsquadron, in Colonize a bad system (food lacking)

Usually by the time you have these, you should have system improvements that alleviate the lack of food, or be close enough to be able to research them fairly soon. Either that or just bring in the big guns and make a fleet of colonization ships to populate the system quickly.

It's indeed all the improvements possible, depending on your system. And yes, "Invulnerable Empire" is required too.

Hi guys

Loving the game, even when getting pasted by the AI.

I would like to know if there are plans for a Hi Score table ??

Would be fun to see how we are doing with the factions on each difficulty level, game world size etc.

You can pretty much already see the game info and where you stand compared to each faction when you hover over the icons on top of the screen: the score, who's first in research, military wise etc.

And my archenemy is this "Dont even think about it". Just wasted a day on this (+8 hours easily) and am at a complete loss what to do.

Advice from the game designer: try in MP with a friend on either the vanilla or Disharmony (it should work on both).

Quite easy when you play against one AI only

Praise to the Endless

Win with an Expansion Victory with the Sowers when you have the Endless Hero

The hero required is Skuoi Kyryi. For my part I'll reload the galaxy until I get him into my first academy pool....

Heartless

Destroy 10 colony ships using Battle Stasis

I confirm it is the special ability of the sheredyn. Colony ships cannot retreat.

Three Little Pigs

Kill 10 troops with collateral damage

Actually it's the anti-aircraft shelter you build on your systems that will allow to kill troop that try to invade you.

The number shoudl upgrade following every game so it is more a work of patience.

Hope it helps

Hi,

You just need to make sure you are playing on the latest version! At the moment, it's 1.0.67 (you can check the game version in the game menu, at the bottom left corner). All the add-ons mentioned on the Steam store page have automatically been added to the game when they were released.

Enjoy the game!
