[quote who="Tridus" reply="53" id="3448691"] Because then you have to write several times more dialog, descriptions, and anything where the humor is, with varying levels of humor in the new stuff, then categorize it all so the slider knows what to turn on and off. Adding an option is not a viable solution to this problem (or many others where it's suggested).[/quote] Hey Tridus, don't get mad, we can always include the option for less options.

[quote who="Island Dog" reply="70" id="3448650"] It's not so simple to say "throw all your guys at it". There are a lot of factors going on, and we've been clear from the start that GCIII will be a while before the final release is out. [/quote] Don't taunt me! Vile fiend! Seriously though you're so lucky to work at Stardock.

[quote who="UnleashedElf" reply="21" id="3448594"] There's advantages to both a Zerg and a Veterancy strategy. It will depend on the incentives for leveling up.[/quote] By the late game in GC2, you should be fielding thousands of supremely well-spec'd ships in fleets of a dozen or more. You have too, because the AI is doing the same, and you will sustain massive casualties no matter what you do. Ships need to be rolling off the assembly line every week at ever

Let's organize our first online game! :3 in GalCiv III Founders GalCiv3 Forums

Figured I should go down in history as being the first person to ask for a multiplayer match in the game, because I'm an excessively important and critical individual. On the day of release, I'll set up a tiny game for myself to get acquainted with the game, then host this one for those who are interested. Largest map (Go big or go home!) (Some people can't handle that kind of map, sweet little things :3) Medium map.

Reply to The GalCiv3 Comprehensive Idea and Request List: Revised. in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I felt I should chip in, considering I didn't before. This is just a cursory opinion. [quote who="DARCA1213" reply="25" id="3448492"] 7. Enhanced combat mechanics and direct control. ( I am vague because the topic is...delicate. Lets not discuss this one here. Please.) 8. Add some kind of late game super weapon. 6. Blind tech advancement. DARCA[/quote] HATE, HATE, HATE: 1. Tactical combat has no place in this game outs

On a more serious note, I hope the patchwork and updates for the game are handled well; Uber Entertainment just released the first 'gamma' build of Planetary Annihilation, and it totally destroyed match connectivity and lead to terrible desync problems. Just the thought of my beloved Galactic Civilizations being unplayable makes me literally angry with rage!

[quote who="MottiKhan" reply="47" id="3448425"] I'd hate to lose the squirrels. They just make logical sense when you compare. Hopefully, the vocal minority won't have an impact on the game. [/quote] It's a scientific fact that demonic, eyeless space squirrels will soon be upon us. Woe to all.

Aside from a few odd lines of dialogue and dorky tech descriptions (Old Mcdonald had a farm, eyey eyey O!... You know what I'm referring too) Galactic Civilizations has a pretty depressing universe filled with violent mass-murder, cannibalism, rampant racism and genocide of entire races. I can distinctly recall having a single turn on my immense galaxy having more than 500 billion deaths in a week. It's not Warhammer 40K-scale morbidity, but it's getting there;

Reply to Founders Elite Really Worth It? in GalCiv III Founders GalCiv3 Forums

Wait five years, then buy everything on the steam sale for a few bucks. :3 But seriously; I'm getting the elite version because in my opinion, Stardock deserves my faith and respect for their past actions and products. Giving them more up-front as a sort of gesture of trust is more important in my eyes than any sort of deal. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and pony up a hundred dollars if it at all helps with whatever. I also want to name a star and be

Reply to GalCiv III is in for some though competition in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="Gaunathor" reply="42" id="3444327"] Quoting ParagonRenegade, reply 41Once I hit 15 billion people on a planet, almost every building that increased morale significantly was useless, even the Torian Hot Springs (+50 morale). At 15b the base approval is 56%, meaning a Hot Springs would provide a bonus of 28%. That's hardly useless, in my opinion.[/quote] That's roughly 50% efficiency lost. And you say you like to micro? For shame! :3 Bu
