We will not be starting with full tech this time around. This will make the mid-game a little bit more interesting as players begin transforming their planets to contain monolith facilities instead of just miners. And then also they will have to begin scraping research facilities to build more miners and or monoliths.
Would it really be the same without full tech? It seems to me that this would only make the game take much longer since I'd imagine that most players would just stay in their cluster until they'd researched most techs anyway. Not to mention, I'd consider scrapping an empire's worth of facilities tedious, not fun.

In other words - if you make it full tech, then sign me up.
