Reply to Suggestion for Starbases = Hangers in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

The terror star is like a normal starbase. It can have all the upgrades a starbase can have. The only thing is that it can move (slowy) and can blow up a star. However, I noticed that the TS could not attack a ship, ships had to come to it. It's a really powerful thing due to the fact that you can beef it up where it has no upgrades left. It could basically become a military, social, economy, and mining starbase all in one. Which means it could become a battering ram with influence vic

Reply to Ways to improve Starbases in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Starbase weapon upgrades should be counted as individual weapons. If you upgrade it fully, you only get a few shots out of a hundred guns. MAJOR drawback for swarms of fighters. Upgrades could be done with mini-freighters. Establish a route to it and slowly upgrade it...

Reply to Are custom races inferior to the pre-made ones? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

If you want to make a powerful custom race, you could just do it manually in mygames/darkavatar. That's what I always do.....

Reply to Suggestion for Starbases = Hangers in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Adding hangers and other upgrades would make starbases more important(and fun). To me, starbases are a pain in the back and the micromanagement in upgrading them makes them a burden. It shouldn't be like this.

Reply to What game or genre would you like to be reborn? in Off-Topic GalCiv2 Forums

I want the old 2D games back. 3D is so overrated these days. Anyone here play Super Metroid or Super Mario on the SNES? Best games of all time if you ask me, especially Super Metroid.

a white hole is an entrance a black hole is an exit thus on the other side of a white hole is a black hole I think you got it backwards. A black hole pulls in, while a white hole shoots out.

The problem is the spying is way to simple. I'm all for simplicity, but it needs depth.

A spade is a spade - and that is definitely a copyright no-no. However, I do have an excellent idea for a crude race, which I will make for you. You're right, we need an ascended race though...

Sounds cool, but what would it do?

Reply to Taking Requests in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Perhaps a creature that resembles an Archon/Dark Archon from starcraft universe. Just don't call it an archon. What about a crude and unrefined race. Perhaps something that looks like an orc. You could make it look like Lurtz.

If you put +50% on "home planet quality", will the planet have a greater quality? The obvious answer would be yes. I tried this, but it didn't do anything.

Well the beta cured most of my problems with DA! Now, I only get a slow down occasionally and it's only a small one. DA used to be a rancid beats when it came to memory usage. PS: Kudos for adding a feature to make stacked ships less of a problem.

Reply to Studying the AI to learn their strategies in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

Perhaps the Ai got a few lucky anomalies and got some extra cash.....but I still wonder how they get all that research out! Just *how* does that topsy turvy AI sleep at night Brad? But seriously Brad, you need to reveal the AI's secrets. (Or how they think and manage to do these feats)

Oh, and can you PLEASE make the AI more agreeable when it comes to tech trading or dealing, Brad!?! For Christ sakes, I getting only around 400 credits in exchange for something as valuable as advanced barren world colonization or terraforming is just ridiculous!!! Well the really ridiculous part is if the tables were reversed (Trying to buy it from the AI instead of selling ). They value the tech alright. TOO MUCH. You

If the Korath get a good hold on the galaxy, there's no stopping 'em! Due to the fact that they have spore ships, they need no troops and it doesn't matter how tough your troops are. That planet is nuked. (Or spored)
