Tech Upgrades

I seem to have hit a wall with the latest beta other than military techs I mean. Everything else is maxed, and only gives a 10% bonus when I research them. My sovereign is only level 6, and I thought I was more in the mid part of the game. I mean all my tech levels hover around 10 at the moment.

So I am curious, is this how the final game is supposed to be? Or is this just part of the on-going beta process? I would have thought there would be loads more than this. Are there more techs to grant me new things at higher levels and I just have to research these minor things to get there?

It was a little strange however, my 3 cities were researching with only about a 3 which took me a long time to get the next tech advance. Then I got a couple ancient knowledge sites when the cities expanded, and my research shot up to about 28 and techs started coming about every three turns. With research, my tech increased to 33 and now everything comes about every 2 turns. This seems a bit of a massive jump to me. I thought techs were going to be spaced out more the higher the level.

agree

its still too easy right now

 

but i suppose its partially set this way to help beta testing

 

everything would be hard to test if you takes 4 hours to discover the new tech

 

also dont forget ai is primitive, i suppose in a normal game youll get attacked way more and so youll need to defend and counteratttack more whilel right now you can research in peace full time

Pacing wise the tech tree needs some work. There's a stretch in early game where it can be agonizing, but it can speed up quite a lot later. It also seems like more techs are needed. But they've got time to fix those things.
