I have mixed feelings about this system. On one hand, it makes sense that I don't know shit about an empire on the other side of the galaxy that I only just heard even existed. And it creates funny situations like when I after a bit of AI abusing kicked a Fanatic Purifier empire's ass so hard, it was locked in 3 systems with nowhere to expand, only one of which had a planet. I, naturally, ignored them, because the purifiers would never kick back from that kind of beating. Little did I fucking know, they were on a doomsday origin. I locked them on the planet that was about to explode. I accidentally commited genocide and got away with it. On the other hand, at some point it becomes meaningless and often it's way too early in the game.

I have had very little luck. The intel just charges so incredibly slowly that by the time you get decent things the power balance has shifted so much they aren't a threat anymore or they have already attacked you. They really should add more early game ways to speed it up. Maybe also further some kind of 'unrest' mechanic that you can seed ethics that are the opposite of their government to undermine them.
@thomaslacroix6011
@thomaslacroix6011 3 жыл бұрын
I think Aspec missed this, but the max intel isn't the max intel that you can gather, but the level of intel that you will naturally progress to: you gather intel quickly when it is below the max intel level, and slowly lose intel if it is over capacity. Gather information can push your intel beyond the "max intel" level. you have a base intel level on other empires based on your technologies and diplomatic pacts with them, or equal to your infiltration level, whichever is higher. If you can reach 100 infiltration level (pretty long though) you would passively have 100 intel. It is quicker to get around 30 infiltration level then quick launch gather intel until you have 100. You also get intel when you get refugees from an empire, which is rather useful when you have an encroaching devouring swarm as neighbor.

Ah yes Espionage ... does literally nothing every playthrough I sit at 4 points higher both encryption and decryption ,aggresive stance +33% intel accumulation, 6 different assets. And guess what ... it still impossible to do anything meaningful. And best part is that Crisis beacon is always ignored - I managed to build up enough forces in few playthroughs to find out with Sentry array finished (aka i see all) that every time crisis beacon action is "succesful" no crisis bothers to go after target. EVER. Like I have done this action 10+ times and all crisis factions still beeline right to my capital either directly or if they are on other part galaxy then they rush to either L-gate or Wormhole. Seriously I was so excited about espionage ... just to find it just never works at all even most expensive actions just always fail even if it is said they work. So far the only "benefit" from them is 10 menace points ... but seriously Paradox should be ashamed for releasing such big feature that just never works. And hey I don't use ANY MOD so I'm sure it is not my fault. Worst experience was with unbidden that spawned on other side of galaxy - instantly made 3 "succesful" crisis beacons on rivals. And guess what ? Unbidden claim 10 systems around ... in line straight to Wormhole which leads to system 4 jumps from my capital obviously. I repel them there for 40 years ... and Unbidden on other side of galaxy ignore next several crisis beacons all they do is sit and wormhole amasing forces just to get owned by my 2Mil fleet on exit. But they didn't expand at all and they ignore EVERYONE around them, they never bother to conquer more , hence 2 other crisis faction vehement and abhorrent never appear because Unbidden in 40+ years fail to claim more than 10 systems so it doesn't trigger. And they just STRAIGHTFORWARD refuse to claim anything that isn't on path to Wormhole leading to other side of galaxy aka me. Such coding and behaviour ...Paradox should be ashamed of it. Literally immersion dies instantly once you see such bullshit. I still won that game, because I just killed unbidden , but that is not the point. Point is ... all Espionage actions fail even if they work because you have massive encryption/codebreaking advantage and tons of assets. And reason is that AI overrides outcomes and still does whatever it is supposed to do prior to outcome of espionage action. Like ALWAYS. This is such letdown when you get message that Unbidden were baited into thinking some empire is attacking thier Anhor somewhere ... just to ignore this message and never even attempt to attack this faction at all. Fk you Paradox - I bet my head (high stake !) that you never even tested your stuff before you put it in sale !

The only operations I found useful were acquire asset, as assets increase your max infiltration level which in turn seems to increase your Intel cap letting you see more of their stuff, and steal technology can help you have a better chance of getting technologies you're after but is limited by the fact I tend to technologically out pace the AI anyway. The rest doesn't seem to achieve much of anything that simply conquest doesn't do better. I guess there's some roleplay value to be had tho, but again not sure what tangible impact much of it would have in the long run.

That crisis beacon was exactly what I needed to buy myself time to build and stitch up the annoying AI spiritualist empire, which wormed it's way into a materialist/egalitarian trade league. Then brought in xphobe protectorates to clash with xphiles. It actually earned an achievement for containing every ethic. Just bought the Nemesis DLC, because 3.0 is such a big improvement to play in mid/later game. There are mechanics in game to fill new colonies, without the optimal ultra-wide pop spam that passed for best play 2.6-2.8. Paradox have addressed many of the issues I experienced. While the espionage system isn't particularly powerful right now, I am confident they'll build on it. It's very interesting and if the AI suffers the same fog of war effects, it's hardly surprising that it appears to build too much or too little fleet. Trading info with allies via diplo makes sense too.

I have to wonder if the random generation of assets is at all influenced by the happiness of pops in the target empire. I really wish happiness and faction satisfaction factored into the operations system in some way. Also, I'd really like to have a way to make sleeper cells more or less permanent; even if you burn an asset, they go away way too quickly. I'd be down with paying a small energy upkeep to make them more or less permanent.

To be fair, if spies in this game were as powerful as the ones in Seven Kingdoms 1 and 2 I imagine people would ask for them to be nerfed. In those games you can use spies to bribe enemy generals into secretly being loyal to you. This can be used to potentially capture entire forts worth of troops, but an even better play is to try and get spies into the fort containing an enemies king and assassinating him. This means one of the king's generals will get promoted to being the new king and if it's a general you've bribed to work for you they may choose to submit to your rule. Allowing you to capture an entire enemy kingdom at the cost of some gold and a single man's life.

all this seems good in theory but in practice most of these operations are too expensive and just not worth the time and resource investment for the small benefit they give. and the events associated with them often have negative outcomes or require even more resources to get positive outcome. i think the costs of all operations need to be reduced or scaled to game time/systems owned by target to make them worth the effort

I have a question about all the espionage operations options ASpec had? I only have the option to gather information.. I was under the impression that there were more options available to the free 3.0 update. If not then what dlc do I need for the other options? These are the DLC I already have? Stellaris: Utopia Stellaris: Apocalypse Stellaris: Leviathans Story Pack Stellaris: Synthetic Dawn Story Pack

As far as i know, for now there is no possible way to see anyone's ship designs. Which is the most important military info. No matter how strong your spy network is, ship info is just disabled. Well, now u have to google "how to fight specific X crisis/fallen empire fleets".. thats disappointing.

Hopefully someone will be able to confirm this question because idk where else to ask 😂. The necroids ship pack would NOT work in an older version of Stellaris, even if im only looking to use the ship’s design and nothing else mechanically, correct?

Aspec I don’t know if you’ll ever see this but if you do could you please help me out. I’ve been play stellaris for awhile now and whenever I get to the endgame crisis a lot of the time the crisis will expand and then come to a stop and it won’t do move fleets or anything. Is there a reason for this or is my game bugged?

I found that i did not really engage with it. I already learned the pattern after one game and it goes - Spy until point for asset - get asset -use asset for Extort favors and steal tech. The rest is just gimmiks. You can just read up the empire strength by looking at the Galactic Community Points. Its a try at a spy system but still not very interesting or unique. At the moment i have little to no suggestion how it could be better. Some obvious things are Putting Envoys into the Leaders tab and give them Traits. Maybe its just fine and Spying in such games will always be ... Ok.

the other ops just need to be ampted up in impact, like sabotage starbase not just destroying a SINGLE module, or make arm privateers have an impact on trade value and piracy too. give an op to impact the enemies diplo weight. ops that increase crime, cause ethic attraction etc. The system offers so many possibilities, and it just falls short of what could have been. Now we are are left with this incredibly lackluster construct.
