Reply to Metaverse Submission problems in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

FYI for the troubleshooters. I played a game through with version 1.04[b] and submitted and the score has not shown up. I don't mind so much because I didn't score too highly. I think this was 2-3 days ago. I was getting successful submissions in 1.02[something]. I never completed a game using version 1.03[something], so I don't know how that would have gone. Everytime I upgrade I totally clear out my save game area because I had an apparent Metaverse overwrite happen with an earl

Reply to Suggestions 1.03 in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I'd like to see a way to find a specific star. I was playing along and got a message that Gabriel had increased its planet quality. Where is Gabriel?

Reply to OT : Atari in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Well if marketing and investments brought Atari down, then this song is certainly a good fit for anyone wanting to take on the name and the poor marketing. I don't think it was marketing that got Atari though. They were very proprietary with their software development. Eventually, the lack of software, made Atari less popular. They made some bad investments, its true, in the 16 bit market, so the PC eventually dealt the final blow I'd guess. ~SDC~

Reply to Starbase Maint Idea Thread in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

The improvement for paying for Starbases is a good idea. You might also just make the improvement automatic. What I mean is that you get free starbase support for the number of planets, or stars you control. You could still have the wonder to double this perhaps. ~SDC~

I used to have that trouble. You should right click near the top of the screen on the button that says "GalCiv Forum". Then select Reset list. It doesn't take long, and you get an up to the minute refresh. ~SDC~

Reply to Performance Issue (Here's what I noticed) in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Excellent theory Infodragon. If you're correct, hopefully the developers can condition/separate the extra functions to occur only when needed.

Reply to Would you buy it? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Its probably not worth having for free. Which would you rather spend time playing? Galciv or MOO3? ~SDC~

Reply to Delete the .bik files...er... in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Leave the open menu .bik alone. Most of the others can be hidden. I tried different ways of deleting and it alway hung up, so I left those .biks along. ~SDC~

Reply to Hail Frogboy! in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Andre, you can still make it last a really long time. If you're going that long, your Metaverse score probably isn't much of a priority anyway, so, "its your thing, do what you wanna do." ~SDC~

Reply to Tech vs. Cash potential game imbalance? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Well, I have the patch but haven't thoroughly played it. However, the concept that there might be more cash than you know what to do with while tech suffer is just silly talk. YOU create the balance when you set the sliders. If you don't want the money, up that tech spending. ~SDC~

Suffice to say its a hit! Man, Frogboy is my age, and he's done more with his professional life than I may ever do. Go Frogboy! ~SDC~

Reply to How does AI 'learn'? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Anxiety, the original claim was that you could teach your own A.I. to play more like a top player had. I think this is what you're asking about. I don't think you can do this as of yet.

Reply to Is this a bug with the AI in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I doubt this is a bug. They want to attack the planet. A civilization who they are not at war with, stacks ships all around the planet. I bet its just the way the A.I. is built. It doesn't expect there to be no way to reach the planet. ~SDC~

Reply to what happened to the drengin.net coupon? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I recommend you get it. Stellar Frontier and Corporate Machine made it worth it for me. I guess that little ninja game is all right too if you like that sort of thing. ~SDC~

Reply to what happened to the drengin.net coupon? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Look on for the sticky thread called "Getting Galciv Betas." Frogboy posted the coupon code at the top of the thread. ~SDC~

Reply to what happened to the drengin.net coupon? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

The deal was better than that. If you owned GalCiv, it was $30. Plus, Frogboy posted a coupon code that took $10 off, so it was $20. I think that the coupon expires at the end of April last time I looked. I'll see if I can locate the post. I don't want to put the information up myself in case I'm not supposed to be advertising it. ~SDC~

I hope its soon (drool). I only bought the game, I didn't subscribe to Drengin. Will future upgrades be available to Drengin users first? Like a beta team? ~SDC~
