    Mod creator here:
    I changed Living Metal production, costs (and nerfed modifiers) etc. right after he made the video, and improved a lot of descriptions.
    He did still good!, its simply an origin to play against the entire galaxy like the Reapers of MassEffect3 (or Contigency) with a lot of stuff to do =)

    @Ep3o 8:15 Colony designation only gives resettlement destination chance so pops more likely come to that world from another one. the transit hub is essentially the opposite and increases the chance for every planet in the system for unemployed pops to resettle to another planet with jobs, housing, and habitability

    • @WhenDevilsDuel
      @WhenDevilsDuel Рік тому +1

      Imo transit hub sucks, the fact that it requires other transit hubs to work makes it horrible. Way too expensive for literally every build. Democracy is better off waiting 2 months, everyone else can force a resetlle. All at the cost of no alloys. Garbage.

    How advance and powerful in technology, feats, ships, infrastructure, ships, and creatures of endgame Stellaris factions are in comparison to the Forerunners in Halo lore? If we are going by a implied Stellaris lore version instead of strictly limited gameplay?
    I don't think the endgame crisis factions the Unbidden, Prethoryn Scourge, and Contingency are as deadly and powerful as the Flood became in Halo Silentium where they controlled Precursor technology against the Forerunners. But it us safe to say the Endgame crisis factions are extremely powerful galactic threats just not to the same exact degree as the Flood became. They maybe large threats to other sci fi verses that are below the Forerunners likely such as the Imperium of Man.
    The Nemesis Stellaris endgame crisis events seems the most powerful since it is capable of ending the galaxy physically destorying all of it and turning the stars into blackholes.
    Plus the whole Emperor event seems powerful and the Leviathans are huge stellar creatures that are very strong.

      the Flood would be absolutely demolished. If the Flood has conquered the galaxy and then the Contingency shows up maybe then they'd have a chance but most of their toys are pretty useless against them. Not to mention Stellaris is on a higher power scale than Halo.

      @@canadian__ninja Power scaling is not quite as important when it comes to the flood due to their assimilation, which has been shown to work on AI's and non biological's at least once the flood has its gravemind, not to mention the flood scales to the folks who built the Ring network so in stellaris terms a megastucture capable awakened empire.

      @Melder Bronnow yes my thing is that the flood needs to be allowed to get to that grave gravemind stage because yes with the logic plague it's not as impossible as it looks on paper. And since the contingency is very thorough when dealing with conquered worlds the flood might struggle for biomass especially later into the war

Which is what is required as of today a.k.a 3rd of november 2023 ? Cuz i can't play with a race like yours cuz of what i said = "Synthetic Gods origin" needing the "spectrals civic" which requires you not having the "determined exterminators civic" for your species.

    The flavor text for this mod is all wrong, is it not? Isn't The Contingency supposed to be like, a "failsafe" of sorts? Sure, a sick, twisted one, but a "contingency" is exactly that: something you do in case of the unexpected. To that end, and according to the lore the game gives you, it seems like The Contingency is a corrupt galactic (or universal) failsafe to keep organic life from destroying the fabric of reality. This mod makes The Contingency out to be a generic existential threat.

    it has a component like titan ships that gives enemy ships debuffs, but slighty stronger, it gives enemy ships: -75% to shield, armor and hull points, -99% weapon damage, -75% weapon fire rate, -80% sublight speed and -100% disengagment chance.
    while also having a weapon that deals 75k damage and two of the red matter lances with a base 40000p hull points and 20 armor/shield Spaces (at least with gigastructures also on)
    But it costs 40000 living Metal and 20000 dark matter
