Ok.. so now you'd like me to go into and call vevery maiol off topic spam... if i do that then i'm get kicked... I do so on varous occasions when I read a msg which i think is related to galciv and then find it that its not.. yours is not the only one .. and i'm not the only one stating this on msgs that are not related to Galciv... so I don't state in other msgs what has been stated...

1.If you look at your stats you should see them increase if the event is planet based then it only effects the reserch etc from that planet.. not empire wide 2.the good morality gets better advancements toward the the end of the game.. evil gets good anolily plusses but then they also get some very bad random evernts (ie: the fundimentilists take over about 1/2 of your planets.. ) If you notice in the player rankings there are more players who play good as thats where the b

Reply to Metaverse Scoring bug fixed in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Black: at least your score is coing up.. not down .. so far in the last 24 days posting (12 games from memory) over 700,000 worth of game points not mvp and my score has dropped by over 100,000 ... and its really hitting my empires score as at the moment i'm the only one submitting.. I do understand about my first big drop (was on about the 12th of the month) as no games in my second block.. but dramatic reductions 3 times in the month is rediculous... I just build back up to

I now have played more than half of my games as maso or higher... and it still recons that my average level of play is painfull..

when I was emperor of the anzacs I did get rid of ppl at one stage who hadn't posted scores or in the forum in the last 6 months.. I believe that the galaxy map goes by the number of members in the empire as well.. as empires with more players but less score but still in the top ten.. hold a bigger percentage of the map.. Or at least that what it seemed liuke to me.. as at the time the empire was is was more active than others with less members and higher ranked but held ledd of the map

PC games used to be like that too... LOL Programmers for PC have gotten more complacent.. and rush the testing period.. publishers may be to blame.. however that being said.. its easier to program for consoles.. because they are the same from one xbox to the next.. they don't have to worry about older hardware or newer device drivers etc... So yes in that reguard the console games are more stable and easier to program for.. Back in the good old dais of the C64 etc.. g

Reply to Some thoughts on the state of PC gaming... in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Here are a few of reasons that I prefer games on the pc 1. I can watch tv while playing them :) 2. PC's are more conmfigurable (user input.. controlers) Because I only have 1 hand (arm) I find the console controlers totaly unmanagable.. This includes those over priced handeld games.. 3. Better support (bug fixes) . I've yet to buy a PC game that I liked that didn't come out with atleast 1 update / bugfix 4. Generally gameplay is superour and the g

Starpilot.. I suppose that you'll also call this a cheesy tactic.... LOL ... I've already pointed out about pourchacing things and going into debit... the AI players start demanding growing amounts of tribute from you as they smell your blood and that you are going under... This isn't a bug... as you've always been able to put yourself into debit be it for anything except tech research as that is the only thing that you can't speed up by purchacing.. This is simply a fact of the game and a way

Star Pilot.. you have miss interperated what i've been saying to some degree.. I for one am not upset that Stardock has improved the game by making it harder and closing off most of the tactics that make the game easier.. I simply don't like being told that I use cheesy tactics when I find something that works and gives me an edge in the game against the AI... If I didn't want stardock to know about them then I and many others wouldn't post our tactics in here and then there would be NO stratagy
