Reply to piracy, prices, options, etc. in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Sorry Dearmad...I don't think you read his post correctly. He says that even though he has never bought a game he is going to buy this one. Hell, I wish I would have pirated about 90% of the 300 or so games I have. But alas, I am an impulse consumer and I justify it by calling myself a "collector". ;) So Gezz, I'm sure I have made up for your past mistakes. This just goes to prove that Brad's view of piracy is correct. That is, that every person that pirates a game may not necessarily

Reply to Isn't it a bit lame.. in Strategies Stardock Forums

Another good use for them in the latter part of the game is to send them to your "frontier" or "border" planet that you are making transports on to supplement the planet after you have sent out troops. This tactic has worked quite well for me. You don't have to wait to make another transport. ~SDC~

Reply to MOO3 and a comparison in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

The industry is bloated and a lot of the developers are too wrapped up in it to give the fans what they are looking for. Should we forgive QS for that heap they call a game? ... Only if they make it right. IMHO developers should not "score points" for what the publishers (and consumers) have paid them to do. The whole "go make your own game" crowd can take a flying leap. I am a consumer. That makes me the most powerful person in the game industry. Brad & co. have delivered what no other

Reply to Cultural Victory Broken? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Yea Brad is right. I was playing on easy difficulty with just me and the Tor on a medium map. I could not get cultural dominance because the Tor were in my way... so I picked a fight. After I took one of the planets that was in my way (actually 3 planets) I accepted a peace treaty (for all of their money)and my cultural influence spread the rest of the way. It didn't start my countdown until after the peace treaty. I know I'm playing on easy but the strategies are coming clear.

Reply to Wanted: Best solution for over-population issue in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

BTW.. Any of the above mentioned population control methods should have severe consequences in the alignment scheme. I can't believe that the morale of a good-aligned planet/empire should rise because you killed all of the old people or had forced birth-control. You can bet that if China was on a Morale scale they would have a morale of zero. I believe the population works like it is. ~SDC~
