This one is a bit of an old chestnut, but its been a very common request throughout GalCiv2 todate. It would be good to finally nail this one with DA.

The Tech Tree descriptions are too bland - there needs to be a better description of what you are getting for your efforts. "improved", "top of the line" "new generation" etc etc doesnt say a lot - says nothing frankly - and only serves to minimise game maintenance as weapon techs change for different game versions (not a good Priorities message to send to players).

I would hope the Tech is improved if its the next in the tech improvements .... so in effect most of the descriptions are, as a generalisation, pointless. Some are specific, but the overwhelming majority are not.

You dont really know what your getting, and only find out when (for a weapon tech) you go into battle. Its a bit like supplying an Army with a new weapon system and saying "Sorry guys, details are Top Secret you'll find out when you use it in battle and your life's on the line - security, need to know ......"   

Apart from that central issue - the lightweight descriptions give a tinny amateurish feel to that aspect of the game, not a good thing to have.

Can we please have improved descriptions along the lines of 10% improvement, or the new absolute value, or the precise effect ...... whatever, anything is better than "improved " etc.
