Ships with 0hp remaining at end of combat in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

It's happened several times to me now in fleet battles. One ship has 0hp remaining at the end of combat but is still alive.

Upgrading Ships and Shipyard Feedback in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

Don't see this being mentioned yet, so apologies if it has. If memory serves, in GC2, when you select an existing ship (on the game map, not ship yard) you had an upgrade button to upgrade it to the latest and greatest ship of that hull type. I don't seem to have that option on GC3, is that something that is going to be added later or will you just have to scuttle a ship and build a new one? GC2 also had the option to hide Core ship designs. If you're lik

LOL, I lowered my graphics settings just to see if that had any effect and I got a minidump trying to select the map to start a new game.

Any info I can provide to help? It seems to happen more frequently when I play as Vasari, but that could be my imagination.

Reply to [MOD] Distant Stars - Rebellion Alpha 0.13 Released! [17/06/13] in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I know this is entirely devoid of useful information, however..... Any guess on why I'd be getting frequent (early) CTD's with the Alpha? No mini dump or other error message. You are sitting there playing along and bam, desktop. Happens single player and multiplayer and there doesn't seem to be a common trigger. For example, one game it crashed when I tried to build a trade port on my second planet. Reload from last save and it let me build the trad

Advent Corvette Bugs in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Playing as Advent, I've been building a small fleet of Corvettes to help my capital ship clear out rebel forces. In the last game I noticed the Corvettes were only using their Beam attack. They would make one pass with the beams then make a second pass and do nothing. Has anyone else seen this behavior? That's basically a 50% reduction to their damage which seriously hurt.

Advent + Capital\Research Victory = Win? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

So, was playing some more Sins LAN games this weekend as Advent Loyalist. We've been playing with multiple victory conditions enabled. So far the only one we hadn't used was the capital victory. So I decided that was going to be my focus this game. It then occurred to me that the Advent Loyalist Titan at Level 6 gets the ability to instantly take over planets. So, I had it go eat pirates and rebel frigates until it hit Level 6 and then made a beeline for

Occupation timer too short in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Just finished another Rebellion LAN game, and my opponent won via occupation victory (which was our goal). Now, to be fair, the map setup was not a normal setup (3 systems, 160 planets, 2 players) but it seems to me the 10 minute timer is far too short. My opponents star system was 1/3rd the distance from the occupation system as mine. I was already in the process of sending a fleet from my system to the occupation planet when he captured it but they still couldn't get t

Reply to Lan Desync in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

I'm going to try that, but that issue was resolved ages ago in Diplomacy. That will make me very sad if they pulled an EA and brought back bugs from the original games release.

Lan Desync in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Anyone else played any Rebellion lan games yet? If so, you have any desync issues? Playing 1v1 plus one AI on easy and the game is massively desynced less than 90 minutes into the game. No sign of latency/lag while playing, didn't even notice until the second player commented I had been defeated. According to my system, I was taking out his home planet. No mods/tweaks/anything like that. No desync issues with Diplomacy on same system/settings. <p

Reply to Ok, so who is trying ot mod the game already? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

As someone who can't stand playing without DS anymore, I can't wait to see your port to Rebellion. If you need beta testers for that, I'll be happy to help. I have regular 2v2 games (plus AI's) at my place. You guys rock.

Reply to Erebus balance discussion in Demigod Stardock Forums

A big factor is also game mode settings. If you are playing high gold games, Erebus can go into Mist indefinately with 3 items. If you let him get to level 20 on a high gold game, he will win. Period. Not just may win, if he gets the 3 necessary items the game is over. Reg is obviously the DPS king and Sedna's healing makes her hard to kill at high settings but they can still be killed even if it means ganging up on them. I've played 7 games today as

TA experience started bad and got worse in Twilight of the Arnor GalCiv2 Forums

Ok, let me preface this by saying I have been play GalCiv since the begining and have always been impressed with the quality of the game. Until now. I had preordered TA and started playing it in beta. However it was a little too unstable for my tastes. I figured not a big deal, I would uninstall it and wait for release. However release came and upon installation I found that I was unable to get through more than half a dozen turns or so before it would just CTD.
