Some comments after my first game with the latest patch

Just finished a game with the new patch, Large galaxy, marauders, high resources 9 hard AI.
First the AI definitely needs improvement in both fleet composition and tactics.
The pirates were for the most part none existent at least for me even when I had a 100K+ bounty.
I like the culture aspect but it does tend to slow down the late game. I am also unsure as to how many broadcast centers to build and were, I was getting 0.4 culture on an asteroid with thee and the same on a Terran planet with six.
I would definitely like to see more fleet capacity I think it would help promote better battles, they seem few and far between.
Late in the game I saw my bounty go down quite a bit even though I was losing no ships or structures, I'm not sure why I don't think it could all be trade or refinery ships.
I don't find the balance of resources off as others have, I never have to use the black market.
And I never research Insurgency as it is already hard enough to find AI fleets to fight.
If there is anything else I forgot (have to start taking notes LOL!)
Cheers.
