[quote who="MarvinKosh" reply="105" id="2853406"]This thread is over four years old. If multi was going to be implemented it would have been accomplished already.[/quote] But GalCiv is eternal. So then, what's 4 years? [e digicons]:cylon:[/e]
[quote who="Draconis123" reply="64" id="2853363"]NeoWolfen.. its not sweeping under the carpet.. its there are already 3000 threads that say the same thing.. try joining them, we all love mega threads! Its not an issue for everyone.. i for one haven't had one crash, but i don't know if how good the computer is affects it though.[/quote] Only one crash here after many many hours of turns turns and turns +1 turn to make it safe....since I got the game
Any chance Stardock will announce a huge 50%-off sale for all Stardock titles before 25 December? [e digicons]:drool:[/e]
Well, I just ran a video of this game at matrix/code and I was left not desiring the game. I guess that's just me? Onwards then to GalCiv II... I've been wanting that game for quite some time now. [e digicons]o_O[/e] It's coming to me... To my HDD... It has willed itself onto me... I can sense it... -.-
Just opened Impulse and whoa!! mega catalog sale!! [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
Well that's encouraging. Yeah, when I saw "RTS" my first thought was "damn, another starcraft?" I dislike Starcraft SOO much. Space is my fav and the TBS, 4x, sim -combo is perfect for me. Thanks. I will give this some serious consideration but it does seem to want to get on my HDD sooner than I anticipated. [e digicons]:cylon:[/e] -.-
Oh ..... it's an RTS? [e digicons]:annoyed:[/e] That's too bad. It did look quite good. Oh well. -.-
[quote who="Hawawaa" reply="100" id="2852751"]Yes DW is fun! Loving the expansion. Heck yes new weapon systems, carriers, and tech trees! Dude right now you can get the expansion for like 19$. It will be on sale for another week and a half. Grab it![/quote] I was just on Impulse and that game Distant Worlds doesn't show up... Where do you get it? ..... (...oh ^.^ looks up..lol.. got it) Also, how does DW compare to GalCiv II? <p
What I've noticed. Four hours well entwined last night w/ Elemental; crash free - this time. [e digicons]:inlove:[/e] [e digicons]:grin:[/e] I was, however, asked repeatedly (every 5-8 turns or so) if I wanted to form a dynasty -- again -- with that same kingdom. Previously, I had given away 3 females and received one male from them. The thing is, I had 2 grown males remaining, and that kingdom also had 2 grown males...but the leader kept asking me if I

I believe the OP means to say that the crashes leave him desiring more game play. Yes. That is what he means. -.-
[quote who="Annatar11" reply="27" id="2852198"]Well gee, I guess if we're comparing companies' non-game development/publishing activities that might be somehow relevant. But we aren't It's not like SD doesn't try to do its own share of cash milking by using a subscription model for Object Desktop, download limits on Wincustomize without a premium account, and charging for premium skins (of course, in many cases the premium skins come from users and not SD). If you consider that, at least the

I can't take it any longer. [e digicons]:waaaa:[/e] I need GalCiv II !!! Come Saturday AM, it'll be on my HDD via impulse.... naturally. (....there....I feel better already....) -.-
I haven't watched television in over 4 years. In fact I canceled my cable television service about 3 years ago. The occasional DVD (action, horror) I do get to see, but my pasttime is filled mostly with GalCiv I and Elemental. Civ V proved to be quite boring. Stardock is my home, in a metaphysical way. -.-

I'm with Stardock all the way. Steam makes its money by selling other people's products...that's no fun. So they can take their 3 dollar outdated games and shove it. Stardock on the other hand produces great software and games. Not only that, but they offer a clean alternative to the digital distribution mechanism. Stardock....For honor....For glory.

[quote who="Wintersong" reply="102" id="2843632"] Quoting aeligos, reply 101My purchase was through impulse, and the version of my game is 1.09e....but I've noticed others discussing play on other versions like 1.09u or 1.09n..... Those are beta versions that registered users may download from Impulse by checking the option of "Show pre-release versions" in the blue tab (leftmost one). Anyone registered may download them if they want (but they are betas which means work in progress)

I'm not blaming programming/devs at all... just my incompetence . But my repeated problem is that food shortages prevents hut building which begets low population which begets again another "begets" for low level buildings. So I basically cannot advance my kingdom in this regard an
[quote]When does that expansion pack offer expire, is it good until the new year?[/quote] Yes. So long as you purchase Elemental before 1 Jan 2011, you'll get 1 expansion free of charge. [e digicons]:cylon:[/e] And about GalCiv........, I have GalCiv I w/ Altarian Prophecy.... and I still play it. And I will be getting GalCiv II Ultimate Edition before the end of this week. -.-
My mouse middle button takes me to my desktop (minimizes the game), but then when I try to re-maximize the game, I get a dx error and the game shuts down. I also hope that we'll be given the ability to assign button controls...soon. -.-
[quote quoting="post"]first post! I have been watching this game for quite some time. I know a lot of people were not happy with the it when it first came out, which stopped me from buying it. now thaat 1.1 is out...is it worth it yet? I do not mind giving stardock/impluse my buisness...they have not let me down yet. I have a multitude of their games and have enjoyed all. So.....is Elemental ready for me yet? I have plenty of time...Got to love christmas leave. thanks!!! [/quote] <p
I get an end turn problem as well. Problem randomly occurs and the game doesn't crash to desktop, but the end turn button will begin to not function. All other activities in the game work...I can build, demolish, explore menus, and only operate non-sovereign units. Saving game saves the error; after restarting game from a save, the issue persists ---> then I need to begin new game. -.-

[quote who="ebenezercrunch" reply="18" id="2848828"] Players who purchase the game by December 31, 2010 are eligible to receive the first expansion pack free of charge. Do players who purchased the game before October 31 still receive the first two expansions free of charge?[/quote] Yes. If you bought the game before 1 November 2010, then you get both expansions. If the game is bought on or after 1 November 2010 BUT before 1
