New Propulsion Techniques

from GalCiv2 Forums
Whenever other races try to initiate a tech trade with me, they always offer me New Propulsion Techniques in exchange for whatever tech they want, which is generally much more difficult to get than New Propulsion Techniques, and much more useful. Granted, the A.I. may think that New Propulsion Techniques is an important tech to have, but since I'm the Korx, and already have Ion Drive, it's useless. Shouldn't the other players be offering me deals that I'm actually likely to accept, trading one tech for one of equal or similar value?

Not really, as their main objective is to always have the better deal, if possible. Of course, if they're still offering it to you in exchange for something halfway down the tech tree, it is kinda insulting.

You can always decline the offer, or modify the trade that is offered.

They may try to get something for nothing, but you are - after all - supposedly, the 'smarter' of the two.

The AI will rarely offer what seems like a favorable trade, at least from your perspective. The tech trading was really nerfed from DL to DA. It used to be a lot easier, and I do think the change is good, but I think they went a little too far in the other direction.
