since we're bragging.... AMD Athalon X2 4400+ 2 gigs Kingstion Hyper X RAM 7800 GT 256 MB Abit Fatal1ty AN8 Audigy 2 ZS Platinum i love my computer but i share the wealth i run SETI@Home all the time adn beta test for game devs
I jujst swa the new intro movie. is it just me or does the narrator seem a little rushed. it seems like shes on a time limit. it would be nice if it could be slowed down a little bit.
I was playin a normal game witha custom race adn i saved the game and exited. when i returned, all the graphics were as if i was in the zoomed out mode. before they were all in the zzomed in mode. i started a new game and it was automaticaly in the zoomed out graphics mode. i cant chnage it no matter how far i zoom in or out.
i saved a game and exited the program. when i came back and loaded it back up again, all of the graphics were as if i was in the zoomed out mode. before, all the graphics were zoomed in no matter how far i zoomed out.
Will Galciv2 support the G15 keyboard. i think it could be very useful. perhaps displaying ship information or planet information one is selected or the treasury adn year when nothing is selected.
i think that would interfere with the games AI adn the way ship battles are determined. right now its rock, paper, scissors. if there were new weapon types then it would make the purpose of defenses almost useless because they might never be used
if you would like, im getting a brand new AMD X2 4400+ w/ a fatality motherboard, 2 gigs of RAM, and a Nvidea 7800. so i can tell you how it runs on a dual core proseesor. its about the opposite of a low end system adn itll be runnin XP.
ya, i could do anything i wanted to the ship but i couldnt exit the screen. if i run across it again ill send you the files
i was creating a ship in the shipyard adn found that i had no weapons so i tried to leave the shipyard screen but i couldnt. i tried presseng escape adn opening other screens but nothing worked. i had to terminate the program.
The game crashed to desktop with the error message from windows sayin it caused an error when i tryed to open the planet information screen. i doubleclicked on a planet adnn it crashed. P4 2.4, 1gb RIMM, ATI 9800 Pro 128mb, Audigy 2 ZS Platinum
ctd upon clicking on an uncolonized world.
I tried to load a game from the main menu and i got the message, "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library. Runtime Error. Program File/Stardock/TotalGaming.net/GalCiv2/galci2.exe"
this happened to me also.
CTD when i tried to continue my game.
i also liked the mini stories. it made the nation you were ruling seem more alive and made the game more fun.
do you think any textures will be in beta 3?
i like ur ideas. they maek a lot of sense. i also think u should be able to choose lik 2 or 3 buildings to have erected wwhen u start. if a race can achieve intergalactic travel they should be able to buil;d a far or factory before they do. we not dealing with a stargate atlantis kind of homeworld in this game in which there is one heavily populated are adn the rest of the land is undeveloped.
You cant really space them out because that changes the game. if stars are to far apart, you cnat colonize other worlds without andvanced propulsion technology which will be difficult to get beacuse you only have a few colonies because the other planets are to far away. but i would like to see the planets revolove and each planet to be on its own orbit.
Awesome conception art. is it just me or does the starbase on the bottom right look lke a go'uld mothership from stargate. thats awesome. stargate rules
I agree. It seems to me that an interstellar race could put its laser and torpedeo bays inside the hull instead of outside like a big target. i also think the armor shouldnt really be a little piece. it should be like a coat and the more you put on the denser or darker colored it gets. i also agree with the add-ons. personally, i never use them. if u click on the ship, you can see its stats. i would really like to see things inside of the hull instead of outside. may
I definetly see your point. Who would want to spend 7 hours and not even get to colonize a new star system. But I would like to see the planets a little smaller. They're ok right now but I don't think making them a little smaller would hurt and it might add to the realism a little. But if it takes away any fun then its not worth it.
i agree about the researchable hull. lik when u get ur first capital ship, capital ship hulls will be available in the shipyard. same with battleships and other classes
dont you think that you should be able to choose what building exist one your homeworld. if a race is able to commense space travel, you would assume that thier homerworld would be more developed than only one city. just a thought. also, when i started a new game in beta 2, one of the planets in my home sutem was black except for the polar caps. all my patches are up to date and i have a radeon 9800 pro 128 mb.
if the dev team has time. perhaps somewhere int eh tech tree, there could be special things like research stations or 'cloud cities' or minig facilities available. also, maybe the gas giants would actually be big.
does the development team have an exact date and even time for beta 2 or should we just check back in everyday?
