I used to be able to do these things, but now my eyes feel like they're trying to pull back into my brain and kill me.

Some singleplayer, mostly co-op with friends is likely.

Reply to Sins needs more rock/paper/scissors in combat in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I really don't see what Dreadnoughts would add to the game, and I don't know of anyone who plays Rock, Paper, Scissors for fun.

I like the super abilities.

Reply to BETA 1A released in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I like the "hard-coded" bonuses of the main races (as if you want to make a truely custom race, there's the custom race button there). Though I do hope we can get a clean-slate option for customs (perhaps give them 15 points to work with?).

Reply to DA - Restricted move points on ships in YOR AOI in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Krynn have Super Spy - start with a spy and are immune to spies themselves. Probably not the greatest, but nice being able to use all your spies offensively.

Reply to Borders! Why not !? in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Static borders in space are probably as doable as static borders in the ocean. The best you can do is threaten anything that gets too close to your actual territory (in our case, land, in GalCiv's case, planets) to go away or be blown to bits. So all we really need is the "get out of here" ultimatum option.

GC2_Story_Loss_Miitary - Miitary should probably be Military. As for the actual feature, sounds fun.

Reply to Xfire bug in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

It sounds more like a problem on the XFire side of things. Open up xfire_games.ini in the XFire directory, and scroll down to GalCiv2's entry [4778]. Note the line: LauncherDirKey=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Stardock\Drengin.net\GalCiv2\Path I'd check your registry for that and make sure that "Path" is leading to the correct directory.

Reply to Leftover ability points in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Not sure, but I do know for most (all?) of the races, if you add points they generally lose a bonus or two (example- Yor lose their +100 Loyalty and +25 Miniaturization bonuses).

MMORPG Guild commitments, bleh. Game's all downloaded (and I loaded it up for a few minutes to make sure it was working and such), just gotta wait till after Molten Core.

If I recall right, it goes for whatever ship has the highest damage to lowest defense ratio.

Reply to Uhm, kinda big bug in the version 1.0.005 in Bug Reports Stardock Forums

Don't see how you'd be playing 1.0.005 unless you did something you probably shouldn't of (like using an old exe), or are posting on a different name than your main.

Reply to mutual trade route defense pact in Trade GalCiv2 Forums

It's indeed changed to a defensive only pact. But, if a torian ship is being "attacked" - then that means someone declared war with em, and that'll kick in the alliance.

Reply to Tactical combat in expansion? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

2. In most cases, loss of ships is largely irrelevent. What, do you play on difficulty settings far below your abilities? Some of us like a challenge, and that challenge is seeing how well we can do (with the difficulty cranked as high as we can handle) without the use of exploits or other such. Half decent tactical combat would render the entire g

Reply to Death of a species doesn't instill realism in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

The Drath/Torian messages were the same, but the Yor surrender had different text. So probably just a coincidence (though I've no clue how many surrender messages there actually are).

Reply to Naming your ships in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Variety, depends on mood mostly. Generally though for space games, sea animals. Tuna, Barracuda, Swordfish, Dolphin, Orca, Hammerhead, Kraken, etc. Name depending on size/purpose. Though I also tend to use things along the lines of Vanguard/Sentinel, and Phantasm/Ghost.

I'll start easy until I get used to the interface, tech tree, etc, then start moving it up till I get crushed utterly.

Reply to Game Example: Altarian Downfall in GalCiv Journals Stardock Forums

Took me a little while, but thanks for a very nice read. Perhaps if your ships looked a little more intimidating, and a little less like toys, the Drengin might've backed off a bit .

Reply to Need Creative people in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

More important than december 7th 1944, 9/11, and the birth of christ, combined! Is there something more happening than GalCiv2's release I'm not aware of? Like I don't know, an asteroid hitting the Earth and wiping out humanity? Alien contact? Discovery of an infinite supply of energy? End of world hunger?

Reply to Tactical combat in expansion? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Ok, but my point, which you missed, is that adding tactical combat wouldn't take away from what you already have. You do understand the concept of development time, right? I'd rather the devs spend time making or improving something that I'd use than some tactical minigame, which would exist simply to allo
