Nice ideas. I agree with namekino. You should be allowed to auto-resolve the battles if you want. Also, battles shouldn't occur on a flat battleground, like Star Wars Empire at War. Make it more like Homeworld. One more thing, I hear Homeworld 3 is in the works! :D Etrius
If you want to see the Dread Lords face, watch the Galciv 2: DL intro. You'll see part of the Dread Lords face. It would be nice to see it in the diplomacy screen though, but maybe you'll see it in Twilight of the Arnor. Carriers have been discussed to death, and I think it is probable that they will appear in GC3. For my own wish list.... Make GC3 have tactical combat. I don't know why the devs don't think tactical combat will work in Galciv. Just take a look at Sword
[quote]so it'll only scale if you use a "real" hull rather than the brick.[/quote] Whats a real hull?
Dude, remember the DA preview pics? It shows huge hulls dwarfing small size hulls. Well, it looks like Stardock has screwed us once again... Etrius
Hmmm... it didn't show. If you want to see the screen, go to voodoo extreme's poll for best strategy game. You will see it. Kryo, I really wish you would make the pic poster easier to use.
I noticed in the preview screenshots that ships with large hulls are enormus compared to medium hulled ships. I found a screenshot: http://ve3d.ign.com/images/19807/PC/Galactic-Civilizations-II-Dark-Avatar Now, in the actual game, huge hulled ships look the same size as small ships. Any reasons?
[quote]how is X-tended? Does it help with some of the balance issues, etc? [/quote] X-tended is fun, I only tried it on a friend's computer, but its really fun Coolest things are: 1. Earth is now an official sector 2. There are now M0s 3. Everything! ;)
[quote]why, if i might ask, do you keep bumping this thread? just curious. [/quote] I want everyone's opinion on starcraft
[quote]We are planning an MMO [/quote] Will it be GCII themed?
bumping...
Why doesn't Stardock make an MMO? It could be Galciv themed, like EVE, but with much more action
Dang...
[quote] but I can find battle00. Oh wait, nevermind. (Don't I feel stupid?) [/quote] Yes. Just Kidding

One question: What is Dawn of War?
I'll bump, but I won't read it Etrius
[quote]Not just a robot, but a Fembot. My super good looking Fembots are rather like hybrids, with all the nice fleshy bits attached to their exo-skeleton[/quote] Well, yeah, but with the exception of Elys Mue, Altarian girls are just the hottest chicks out there. You don't get those, well, um, love feelings with a Fembot, dude
(bumping)
[quote]Only if my Fembots are on charge.....their recharge cycle is often far too long....but since where talking about Torians...how about a nice glass of Torian Ale, aged 25 years.....just the right age too i might add, squish 'em while there young i always say!!!! [/quote] To Neilo, why would you date a robot? Give me a hot Altarian chick anyday! To Firebender: I do wish stardock would listen to our ideas, so I'm with
Nice job devs...
Dude, you double posted
[quote]It may seem a little that way looking at my posts. I did actually attempt to keep an open mind when i played it, and i tried to get into the spirit of the idea but it just flopped, i genuinly hated the change of faction idea.[/quote] I didn't really like playing as the Drengin during the DA campaign
[quote]In most RTS games units just line up and get shot at. In real life(today) armies don't fight like that, except in Napoleon's day. Rebels just wouldn't line up and get shot at by the Combine, vice versa for the Combine. It would be really innovative to have the AI fight on their own and think on their own. Urban combat is usually done in small, relatively independent teams. So the AI would determine on its own how and where to position itself at. Actions like running from building to build
Nice feedback guys Couple things: 1. Whats Dawn of War? 2. If Valve makes an RTS, they should make it based on Half-Life. Combine vs. Resistance would be cool. 3. I might be willing to try Starcraft 2. However, why doesn't Blizzard make a game with nice graphics? More people would by SC II if it had nice graphics. Etrius
