That is odd - I would have said that maybe the word was some anime character name or something, but it only turns up 70 results on Google, so it IS a pretty rare word. Still, I still suggest htat maybe just maybe, someone else thought it would be a cool name, too

I've met one family from Detroit. They're really cool people. Stardock is in Detroit. They're really cool people. Kid Rock's midget friend was from Detroit. He was really small people. On the whole, Detroit strikes me as nifty. The cold doesn't bug me, as I am currently freezing my toes off in Boston. The only problem? Coding is hard <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/

Originally posted by CKayote 1)Fix the Neutrality Learning Center! 2)Improve the Minor Race's AI. In GC1, minor races close to me were a threat early in the game. The suck now- Don't attack, don't colonize other planets, and only seem to build resource starbases and ask for tech trades. The Dark Yor and Snathi should be threats matching

Okay, Brad et. all, here is somthing that has REALLY been bugging me on this issue. I LOVE Gal Civ 2, hugely! It's all I've done since it came out! No, really! That said, you continuously say that you left out multiplayer to focus on the single player experience, and in a lot of ways, I think that's true - AI, ship designer, etc. But there is a key single player aspect that you totally ignored. The CAMPAIGN. I don't

Yeah, but what about when there AREN'T 10 billion people sitting around to do the breeding. Imagine you spend a couple of turns buying farms to up growth rate on a new world, then sit back and watch it go. . . and you've suddenly got 2billion people pumping out 100 million kids a week. . . in other words, at any given time, 9/10ths of all women are pregnant (1/10 of all women at 9 mo's pregnant each month). . . assuming they don't have accel

I read a great solution the first day the game came out, but i have no idea who wrote it, but I will hare it Put 2-3 fighters capable of defeating the starbase (IE, enough weaps/def to break its own) directly next to it, and another 2-3 fighters nearby, but not NEARLY as close as the starbase is. Write down the ship/fleet numbers of all of these. Gift the ships close to

Stats: 512 megs of DDR 2700 RAM GF5600 Ultra w/ 256 megs of RAM AMD 2100+ (1.7ghz) By the end of my Normal Games (4 opponents, medium/small map, pretty high settings - I only turn down AA), my PC lags when entering battles, when explosions occur onscreen, and when playing movies. That said, just exiting the game tendsto make the problem go away. . . though exiting can take 3+ minutes <img src="http://images.stardock

Should you upgrade it? Once all anamolies are done, yes, because a survey vessel's pretty useless. Buildinga cheap, faster scout will be better for regular exploration. To a fighter? May as well, it's the only real fighting class ya have that early Will XP transfer? Oh yes Penalty for losing it? I have had mine blown up p

An option to change rally points in the colony list screens (One, the ship/colony screen that appears on the left side of your screen, the other, the colony list that is in the graphs menu). Similarly, more detailed control of ships in the left-side ship/planet display menu would be nice - minibuttons for upgrade, fleet-create, move (really move, not just to here), destroy, etc. would be nice

Well, assuming that CAP = 20 * (PQ + X)^3 is correct, the value of X isn't constant, sadly. For PQ 4, it's roughly 1.127 For PQ 5, it's roughly 1.075 For PQ 6, it's roughly 1.047 etc. I wish I could go nab that formula. . . just cuz this is gonna drive me crazy. . . lol

Trick is, can you guys add resolutions that take the full width, and ALMOST all of the height, leaving just enough pixels at the bottom to display the task bar?
