About my current position and gaming frequency - I think it should be fair I'll tell you all. Frankly, I reached a position where I can finish a gig-maso in about 5-6 hours. I preety much "nailed" a system. The problem is this crappy divider. New games only give me something like 10k points, and quite frankly I've played Galciv so often now that playing a game every day (or even every few days) is tiring to me. I'm also quite busy. Since 10k will hardy move me up in the score (I need so

The tales of the agent - part 7 Or - how I wrote another story in jest, so please don't sue us It was night. The agent's new team of heroes was inside, packing for Wombat first official mission. The agent did not show it, but he was quite excited. It seems Wombat was after the agent's old empire, which is quite enjoyable. The bureaucracy, the cavity search... well, the cavity searches weren't THAT bad. "That was a lovely bit of Elfwine. Thank you Sauron". <b

Peace. I promise I will stop drop missiles on the west bank. Oh, sorry, that's another truce. Arrr. Sure. Peace, dude. Long live and prosper, and so on. One day I'll even write a short story about this glorious struggle between the MM77 and the rogue agent. [Message Edited]

Yes. Give them +100% diplo if you need to, but keep the trade mechanics as they were. I understand the rational behind this (make it more difficult for the player to sell useless techs to the AI), but this can be solved in a different manner. The AI's should adapt how much money they are willing to give by their total economy (so that minors will give you less money, because they have less), and make the AI estimate certain techs less (like stellar catagrophy). Right now it feels broken

You're still keeping this up, MM77. I don't know why. You're behaviour is not acceptable. No one here is trying to fuel hard feelings. I am NOT trying to attack you. Simply understand this - you were request to tone down your comments because you were rude an impolite. Simple enough. You have no right, moral or otherwise, to tell me or anyone else where to post. It's quite simple. If you don't want to post here, that's your decision. No one tells you not to post, we just ask you to be c

Reply to My concern of a pay for expansion pack... in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I played one of the earliest versions, and I found the game to be quite excellent even then. IMO it wasn't buggie, and anything since then to now has been a steady improvement. I am really impressed with stardock and I don't think we can expect anything from them. Maybe I say that because I'm so dishearted by the industry - being a game journalist I saw too many games that had far less support. Regardless, I think GalCiv is solid, interesting and effiecent. I would like to see more cont

MM77, you're starting to annoy me in earnest. You are rude and impolite, and people here already warned you here about that. You are not "kept out" of this thread because of what you say - you are kept out because of how you say it. If you start to behave, you are more then welcome here. Until then, I suggest you don't make comments about who should be where. Keep a civil tongue and behave. [Message Edited]

Reply to New Modules Newbie Question in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Modules are built on star-bases. Send a constructor to an existing star-base to open up a menu with all the modules you know how to build. As the game progress you will be able to build additional, more powerful modules on your star-bases, often enough with prerequisite to existing, more simple modules.

You wrote a very long essay, Sirian, and I agree with you on several points. There should certainly be more distinction between the two sides, and no side should be able to acquire the techs of the other side. I also agree wity you that the fact you need to adapt your ideology to the political structure in every game is also somewhat misrepresentative. I am not sure I would do it differently - after all, it makes sense to adapt your political decision according to the political map of

There are not supposed to be individual planet sliders. This is not a bug, it's a design decision, and a darn good one. It streamlines the game and make it more fast-paced. A much better approach to macro-management then MOO3. You just want to stir up trouble again, Droid. I remember you. GalCiv is done. It's an excellent, elegent and effiecent game. It does not need a lot more work - it needs a few more twicks and possibly more content in an expansion (like more tech, races, etc.). The
