F so much F... The tech tree just feel small... I also miss the incramental improvements that GCII had with weapons engines and armor. There should be way more types of weapons and armors... such that the "doom Ray" or other end weapons are really special once you get there.

[quote who="rynebrandon" reply="27" id="3627748"] I was a little dispirited to see such a well thought-out post from Gauntlet be used as an opportunity for everyone to sort of say what they do and do not agree with. It really goes to show, we're nowhere with this game. It's not that I think anyone's opinions are bad it's just that it seems like none of us are able to separate what we see this game COULD be from what this game actually IS, and we, therefore spend post afte

The thing of it Seilore is that mechanical/functional fixes are constantly being done. Each patch has fixed something or added something. The game almost never crashes anymore.. in fact I've not had a crash since probably 1.4. I suspect that some of the crashes are computer hardware related more than software and will never fully be fixed. Multiplayer... I think this is somethi

[quote who="Larsenex" reply="18" id="3627583"] In D&D you can change alignment even as a player but at a cost. In 30 years of gaming I never penalized a player who strayed far. If a Paladin murdered the Goblin family because he felt he was preventing future deaths, there would be a severe removal of powers and a quest required to atone but he still got to do what he wanted. Original D&

Gauntlet, Selore, Thank you for replying. Have either of you ever played Dungeons and Dragons? When you talk about roleplaying the game and all. It looks like we can agree that the current system doesn't really work. I think the biggest issue I have is that it Locks you in on the FIRST freaking pick... and then as Gauntlet says doesn't really tell you what you are or w

Ok guys can anyone answer me these three... I'm interested in your opinions because these are questions I have on "should this be part of the game" that I cannot answer for myself. 1. How do you get the AI to do this as well? If the AI is not able to do this then it is broken or a "Gamey" mechanic. 2. how does having the option to go down all three paths improve the game play?

[quote who="Larsenex" reply="5" id="3627386"] I completely disagree with your thoughts on limiting war based on ideology or locking out ideologies completely. I would rather see your make choices but the other two trees cost 3x a much and each pick in the primary tree 'scales up' which in turn MUST be tied to map scaling. Thus on Insane maps you can get all trees but you must work for it. Remove the points given to buildings over time or allow the pla

I am not convinced there is truly such a consensus. Would you care to offer a suggestion as to what the two Xs are that are this general agreement?

For the Fun of the Game.... Diplo/Ideology/Other stuff in GalCiv III Future Ideas GalCiv3 Forums

If there is one thing that is obvious in reading these forums, it is that we all have VASTLY different opinions on what is fun. One thing that I think we can all agree on is that it is more fun to have a challenging game that is challenging from the first turn to the last turn. It is not fun to have "won" the game by turn 100 and then spend 200+ turns "ending the game" to actually win. Here's some things that need to be acknowledge

Reply to Production overflow not working in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

Honestly I've never cared enough to see where my economy in the game is coming from... but I think that excess production that would "drop off" after one turn is then turned into cash... Most of the time by late game I'm usually making over 15k a turn...

in that sort of a situation are you swimming in money? I'm pretty sure that excess production is converted at some nominal rate into cash....

[quote who="Falkoner" reply="4" id="3625672"] Sure. But I don't think the AI could ever reason in that way, no more than it could pursue the 3 ideological branches at the same time on an immense map.[/quote] The fact that Human players Can "game the Game" and pursue three ideologies at one time is in and of itself broken. But that'

oh and before you ask... if you hold off on the "everything in your territory joins you" benevolent purchase until after you have basically built enough stations to blanket the malevolent flip resistant planets... that becomes the I win button...

Reply to Why can I ask AI to start a war... but not End a war? in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Not true.. Benevolent has bonuses to diplomacy and influence.. I have won games as Benevolent without building a single troop ship... Granted it took building a metric crap ton of culture stations but culture flipping should be one of the biggest means by which a benevolent AI plays... Benevolent cultures should also be able to create alliances much earlier in the game... thus when the

Why can I ask AI to start a war... but not End a war? in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

So why is there an option to ask the AI to Declare war on X party..... But not one where you can ask them to Make peace with X party? I was most of the way to a Diplomatic Victory when the Altarians (Benevolent) declared ware on their neighbors the Torians Also Benevolent Both of them were previously my allies... So then the Torian's as

That said, The battles not showing up until they are over is not related to the memory use and that is actually a problem. What sort of video card and or settings are you running?

Reply to Using massive memory in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

no other game out there is 64bit... true 64 bit and not a 32 bit running with 64bit extensions... As a true 64 bit software it has the ABILITY to use more ram. as your computer has 32 gigs of ram and it is using 70% of it this means you still have around 10 gigs of ram free... I'm not seeing why this is a problem....

Reply to Tactical Speed in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I really wish it would do more... like increase miss chance or dodge or something... It is useful if you are doing mass drivers tech but in all my testing it is better to add one more defense or one more weapon over adding thrusters.
