The new features displayed on the 2.0 preview look neat, but they don,t dynamically change the game. It is a matter of conveince to be able to create ships without playing or turn down the mega events. All of these "changes" will make no difference if the diplomacy is not fixed. I am not saying that i am not excited about the 2.0 release, but i will temper my excitment until i see a fix in diplomacy.
