You don't have to. You can opt out. Roll back to the version you liked.

You don't have to. You can opt out. Roll back to the version you liked.

This is the same logic as "If you don't like society, go live in the woods"

As was already Said. Nobody Forces you to Play this Update.
Paradox is Offering to Play the Old Versions at all Times. So if You think the Previous Iteration was Better. You can always Play that one.

Not Really. Because If You dont like Society go Live in the Woods. Is an 100 to 0 Approach.
Basicly if You cannot Deal with the ever Changing Life in Culture and Society. Then abandon Society and Live in the Woods.
Which of course means You Win nothing. Because You are not getting back to the Time and Society that You liked Living in. You just leave Society alltogether and have to Live in the Woods which is Generally much Worse.

But Playing an older Iteration of Stellaris is not a 100 to 0 Approach.
You are not abandoning the Game alltogether. You Simply go Back to Playing the Version that You liked most.

Played for some Hours yesterday. Not a Single Crash so far.
Worst Problem we had was that the Wilderness Origin did not Properly Display Monthly Biomass gain.

I Played more than a few hours mate on the new patch and at almost 4k time played I know how it should be working .Have a look at the steam reviews lots of new down votes over the same problem all because of this patch

[Wintermist]

I haven't crashed a single time either after like 10 hours, so dunno what that is about.

EDIT: Perhaps you have old mods active?

[HongLong]

Tore my playthrough of 50 plus hours to shreds with their 4.0 update. Won't play again for a looooooong time. Talk about dumping on your players. It updated automatically, and I don't save in order to get the achievements. Horrible, just horrible. As I stated on my livestream, its like kicking over a board game that's been going on for weeks.

[jackdeath128]

no I only run ironman grand admiral and huge galaxy with xeno compatibility off and every thing else on .No lag till you get the big million plus ship fights with the old pre 4.0

Paradox Forum just on the first page of 4.0 bugs we have 17 different ones in 5 hours of posting .I did not bother going back past the first page very easy to see its a total balls up this patch

Not for everyone. I haven't played this game in 2 years and suddenly it doesn't work on my newer machine. I don't have an issue with anything else on Steam, but after 3 hours of troubleshooting, I can't even get this game to launch. Not even an older version.

o..... only the third?
uhm... ive been here since the begginin bud, this isnt even CLOSE to what we had back then before this update.
this update is no different, more changes, some good, some bad.
More people whining they cant have a single planet keep up with 200, more people that know how math works.
the world spins on, until a colossus blows it up.

All the changes are good imo, sure the game is unstable, all tooltips are not updated and some systems are broken, and i don't like when companies release games or updates in a broken state. That said every change they made is good when, or if, the problems that come with them get fixed.

Apologies for the innaccurate words. the changes themselves were good, though theres as always, bugs.
its a pretty big game tho, so thats expected... if it DIDNT have any issues id actually be more surprised.
they have however, always done they're best, and i expect it.
the worst time ive had from stellaris was i was caught with that wonderful start of game nexus storm on release day, which they patched VERY quickly.
and hilariously.... i was actually still fighting, and was around the top 1/3 even WITH the 50 year penalty to everything.... tho in fairness economy is my greatest strength and i was a megacorp, so my suffering was far lighter than most people ive seen.
this update is not that broken, and i enjoy CS, it adds chaos to the mostly ordered galaxy.
Really happy/confused to see were getting a buff the psions soon... they're easily the most broken thing in game in someone who knows how to use them's hands.... more worried thats going to make what i find to be invincible even better, i already get sad playing other things.

This is interesting, the game they seem to care about the most, reworking the bad stuff, fixing the game over a long period of time, having proper overhauls worse games (like CK3) desperately needs and envies gets attacked by lazy people for the most trivial non-reasons.

[MΛRCUS HΞLIUS]

I agree with OP, this update is like when an artist goes back to a masterpiece they painted and keeps changing it. AFTER someone has bought it, framed it and hung it in their house.

I'm just rolling my game back to 3.0 and leaving it there.
