Reply to AI vs. AI in GalCiv Journals Stardock Forums

Can we do this as well? I mean, watching the AI play without a human player? If so, how? I second this question . I do like how all races seem unique and you can actually say "damn Terrans and their diplomatic ways" knowing you're not giving the A

They're different. The ranger is much more powerful if I'm not mistaken

Reply to Using a "tank" in your fleet in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I've tried this tactic by having weapon-only little fighters and few-weapons-many-defenses cruisers... but so far they attack the little fighters anyway and the cruiser having bad weaponry isn't that great. I then tried mixed fleet of small fighters, corvettes, cruisers, etc... and reactions are more varied which lets some of my ships survive longer and get more experience. All in all, defense is good but not if it means your ship can't attack properly

Reply to Stardock: Two requests for the Forums in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Running Firefox 1.5.0.1 and Watch doesn't work :/... I've seen a few posts of other people having the same problem (error message says something about a time out). With watch working it would clearly help a lot Edit : "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was

Reply to Ideas that would be nice to see in GC2 in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

This Grand Space Yacht is a nice idea and could very well be a single event out of many others. I wish random events could take another form than a screen with a picture and three choices, or random "gifts". MOO had space monsters with particular behaviours (though not many and not *that* interesting). Adventures in Infinite Space has a few rare but critical events (terrible alien invasion, stars going super nova). And in the very old K240 you'd have a

Reply to Multiple prerequisites for techs in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I guess my wish for this was mostly because there could be a few "combination" techs that would make a civ stand out because others don't have it. It's already the case with alignment techs but it's a bit limited. But I realize it would be a mess when it comes to actually looking for something precise ^^;

Reply to Minor Issue: Intentional or Big? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

It works the same with techs you get from trade. You can not have researched any laser, get Plasma and go on from there. It's a bit more tricky with techs other than weapons since you don't get improvements retroactively so getting something far ahead doesn't mean you're equal to someone who has researched everything in between.

Reply to The next Galactic Civilizations II print ad design in GalCiv II News Stardock Forums

What I like the most about this ad is the fact it's real... I mean, it's not the first ad to boast about moddability... but GalCiv2 actually has it, yay!

Reply to Ideas that would be nice to see in GC2 in Ideas Stardock Forums

Very MOO-ish requests . But it's true. I like the idea of random events, "heroes" and map unique features. Nebulaes and asteroid fields should be easy to implement in terms of gameplay (speed slowdown). Heroes would be probably harder. And events well... it depends how they affect the game.

Multiple prerequisites for techs in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Does it already exist ? If not, do you think it's possible to make new ones that require more than one previous tech through modding ? It seems techs can require an alignment but that's all I know.

Reply to where are the planet city lights? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

I've seen a *lot* of lights on a class 21 planet with about 6k people on it I think. It was one of the rare cases. It seems class might count more than population ?

You can rename individual ships. Just make sure it isn't in a fleet and alone on its square, select it and look for the "page" icon. It lets you rename anything actually.

Reply to Technology Research - Suggestion for future Add-On and/or Gal-Civ 3... in Game Talk Stardock Forums

I haven't tried them yet but it seems there are "parallel" technologies like the psionic missile. You can't further down their branches and according to the description they're much stronger... but also bigger/more expansive. I like the idea of having a tech boost like that but probably putting it on only one ship because of the cons of it. I do hope custom content will bring in a lot of new technologies because it's fun to explore the tech tree <

Reply to Is it just me or is everyone playing the game zoomed out all the way? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

I use both. Close view gives planet/ships names and you see the directions of ships. Tactical view is good to see enemy movements since the game doesn't focus on them and if you have *many* detailed ships it helps the framerate

Reply to Building ships out of game? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Meanwhile I've heard you can launch a bogus game using the... Battle of the Gods scenario I think, which gives you all tech right away. This way you can design ships, then quit this game and go back to regular ones.

Reply to I hate the the Torians in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

The Torians at first because they always get so many planets and then go to war against many races.... But then the Terrans, because they keet quiet until you totally forget about them and suddenly you realize they're better than anyone else with their economy and they quickly conquer half the map.
