What do our Faction commanders think of the improvements to the Holo Command Center?
The screens and buttons are certainly much faster, and should make commanding your Empires easier!

It's weird to have the screen transitions be so... snappy. I love it though, and this will definitely speed up gameplay.

I got used to it pretty quickly. I think for new players it is a better experience overall, less waiting.
We cut almost 0.3s out of each transition with the optimization code which over an hour of playing actually adds up pretty fast.

I'm not sure what the Holo Command Center is, but the game does seem to be faster, and that is a welcome change.

The screen loading time on all screens has been improved. Things are snappy now. Hope you like it  |

Never had any complaints about the game to start out with-- just wish I played it better!! Am enjoying the added speed... still hating the Zeno Navy... Who are these guys anyway?? I'm kicking their alien asses and they keep on coming and now, suddenly my economy is crashing all around me!!!

Welcome to the forum zman and thanks for the post on Steam recommending that players check out the forum. There is a serious seasoned crew here, so ask any questions you have and either myself, Cory Trese, or a veteran player will be able to help! |

A remarkable and most appreciated improvement! There's no way to go back to a previous version to do a comparison, but my perception is that it cuts the time it takes to run a turn (after hitting the END TURN button) with >60 Colonies by way over half. Although the speed of pre-boost game never bothered me, I'm sure that it would be painful to go back now...... Huh! I'm spoiled already, by something I never even knew I wanted!  |

Huh! I'm spoiled already, by something I never even knew I wanted! So often how it works We flipped back to the old mode for a test, and colony management (in and out of screens to add / improve projects, next colony ...) all of that seems so painfully slow. We're working on bringing the enhancement to all of our games. |
