It's clean. [quote]Wiped your screen off?[/quote] It may as well be invisible.

[quote who="Revan67" reply="29" id="3452020"] Yea. I am at work right now, remoted into my home pc so i can start the download when it hits.. Need my coffee *yawn*[/quote] I've been awake for 50+ hours. Shake it off man! If you ever need a pick-me-up, just think about how sleepy one ParagonRenegade is, and chuckle a little bit and mutter 'dumbass' under your breath. It helps.

[quote who="Iggore" reply="4" id="3451977"] I had a lot of fun customizing everything at the exception of the tech tree. Maybe it just me. My goal was to make it AI playable, but the AI was terrible when it was at the helm.[/quote] The GCII AI was pretty terrible in most respects when you really got down to the brass tax. It's very predictable, and easy to exploit. Failing to make the AI use your faction well is akin to failing to code the AI as well as Brad Wardell; you&#39

With the exception of Xeno Ethics and the Star Republic/Democracy/Federation techs, everything in my civilization, from the technologies, improvements, ship designs, race portrait and attributes was custom-made using the built-in modding tools. Took a few days, but the end result was glorious .

[quote who="DARCA1213" reply="19" id="3451966"] Since this is a alpha and not a real game yet, do we always have to be online with steam when we play. I ask because I haven't used steam before. (phrasing that sentence was a little fun )[/quote] Most games on Steam can run in 'offline mode' just fine.

Reply to Attention Founders - Star naming and special thanks credits in GalCiv III Founders GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="dougo33" reply="13" id="3451949"] I am going to do something more personal. Our daughter passed in December so I will name my star after her as a tribute to her. I know this isn't the usual way people go about naming things, but my wife liked the idea. It is a small way to help us never to forget her.[/quote] We are all lesser with her absence. I know what losing your children feels like, and I sympathize.

[quote who="ozmono" reply="12" id="3451952"] I understand the anticipation but you can either stay up refreshing your browser and watching these forums like a hawk or you can get some sleep, do something else and maybe miss the first hour or two of release. There will be plenty of time to test and we've waited this long, I wouldn't worry too much about it.[/quote] I've been waiting for six years. But the last few hours are the worst :C

The Ecumene; a technocratic, collectivist, good-aligned alliance of races flying under one banner, who abandon diplomacy and co-operation almost entirely in preference for forcing other civilizations to accept their philosophy through violence. They have massive advantages to research, loyalty, approval and militaristic elements, but a crippling malus to diplomacy alongside expensive (But very powerful) improvements and technologies. They have a poor early game, and a strong end-game, which b

Reply to Drengin - do they lack character? Are they just your stereotypical evil faction? in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="10" id="3451790"] By human moralistic values, the Drengin are evil. They delight in the concept of causing pain to all sub-Drengin. That is because they don't see anything but themselves as sentient. Everyone else is basically a bug to them. The feelings or thoughts of sub-Drengin are irrelevant. The issue of what defines sentience will be coming up in one of the expansions later on (years from now). But sentience is a b
