Reply to I am so lucky in GalCiv Journals Stardock Forums

Wow! As a gamer, you don't get to see much of how things are developed. What goes on behind the scenes. Wait a minute. I know Stardock is different. "Other" game companies generally lurk on forums, actual responses are so RARE. With Stardock it is not so. Look at the sheer # of responses from Stardock personnel on this forum. You can't beat that! Best customer support and Service in the Galaxy. It's too bad more companies aren't l

I dunno if this will get the green light now but you can keep it in mind for later if you like it... but I've been thinking about asking for resources to have their own color, habitable planets to be a brighter white than non-habitable. It doesn't show up unless you uncovered the "fog of war" so it doesn't eliminate need for scouting. I was also thinking you could link it to some techs past Stellar Cartography.. like "Stellar Navigation

Reply to Do I just suck at this game in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Pick two weapons types and don't do the third. Trade/Steal for third type whenever possible. I do the same for armor as well. Get the most out your techs.. if you sell off your new Ion Drive tech to one race for Xeno Factory, go to each and every race and get some BCs for it if they don't have any techs to trade for. Defend ALL your planets. AI sees an undefended one its like signalling blood in the water to a shark

Reply to AIs taking PQ 7 planets - is this normal? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Yes.. PQ 7 are desirable as opposed to not owning it. The AI will make use of it if you don't. Anything less like 3s or 4s I turn into research outposts. Extra research is always good. plus you really can't make more than fighters really if you do stick all factorys on those small planets.

Reply to Trading techs for money in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Well it depends what it is. I wouldn't trade the 'latest' weapons techs or what not. Since they can easily trade to races you don't like or are enemies with. But if its a race that doesn't have say 20 techs I'd sell 5-10 older ones just so I am the one who profits not another race.

Reply to Stardock is a class act! in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Yes they are. Don't overlook the Desktop products they have too. I have always been happy with DesktopX. "Granpa, you really had the first Stardock games? Before they kicked Squaresoft's butt ?" "Yep.. I played Galactic Civilizations as a beta tester too.. that was long ago before they became Stardock-Squaresoft-Enix. Now they are the worlds most successful gaming company as well as the best. " A bit of fanficti

Reply to The GalCiv II Metaverse Needs YOUR Award / Medal Ideas in Metaverse Stardock Forums

Top player in your race for each one of the 4 types of victory. Example: Top Drengin Conqueror( military victory) , Top Yor Techie (tech ), Top Terran Diplomat (allied victory), Top Arcean CEO ( Influence ) Several different other awards like beating the game at least once with every race. Something for beating the game on every difficulty level. Ribbon or medal for beating every difficulty up to including Normal. Maybe fli

Reply to Help with Invading a planet in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

redesign troop ships maybe? Stick on more troop modules ? Or get Advanced Troop modules. 1 of those has twice as many troops as the basic one plus they take up less room. not to mention along the way you'll get soldier bonuses.

Tweak: Capital Ship movie goes off when you build a Large ship not Medium. Call me a stickler but you saw a similar movie in GC1 when you built a battleship. IMO large is for battleships and medium is more like frigates. Tweak: Diplo Sliders scaling for money/ IP. Also the ability to type in a figure. I've been playing on games were aliens had hundreds of thousands (maybe a mil) of influence points asking for trades. Sliding the bar q

Tooltip: Maximum population a planet is able to hold on colony management screen when you hover the planet picture. Tweak: (or bugfix) Tier 2 types of weapons and armor can be built even if you don't have Battle Stations mk I which unlocks the Tier 1. If there's an order to these things then you shouldn't be able to build the +10 def or attack ones if you can't put the +5 ones on. In the beta it was build it as you research it. <br

Reply to Need Help In Building Q's in Strategies Stardock Forums

Hi ! I can give you some tips for starters. Let's start with techs. What are you researching first? I would go for universal translator (not first) but at some point if you don't have it already. Space Militarization and Galactic Warfare is what I go for first if I don't have them. Then research centers and planetary improvements. Notice what you get for researching them... bonuses to production and research. Ok also on your very
