Reply to 3 questions from Stardock to you in GalCiv III Dev Journals GalCiv3 Forums

Today I would like to ask you guys some questions about strategy games. What parts do you remember long after playing the most? I remember on random event from Civ 1 or two where a city on the other side of the world decided to join my empire. 2. Looking back, how many turns do your favorite games last? This is important to know the specific number of turns the game in Question l

what I would like to see changed in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

I have a few thoughts on what I would like to see changed in Galactic Civilization 3. 1 In the Ship designer the place that shows the space available and space used for components should be larger so its easier to read. 2 The points you get for the ideology events should scale inversely with the map size. 3 I think the Ship yards should be part of a starbase. This would give you a Starbase with a shipyard a

[quote]I've gotta chime in here.I haven't seen this at all.I have played games with tiny, medium, and large universes. I've had a variety of tech speeds (very slow, slow, normal, and fast). I've played as, and against, a variety of opponents, usually at normal difficulty or the one immediately above that. I've won by tech, influence, and conquest.I have NEVER seen the tech rates change in a meaningful way after successful completion of one tech, especially not to the point of doubling.I usually

Reply to Sudden and extreme tech cost increases in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

[quote]I'm wondering why there has been no word from the devs ? (new to forums, so is that normal?)This, imho, is a game breaking bug... especially if you have focused on being a small(er) empire with high tech.[/quote] The developers are under a time crunch to get the Polital Machine out in the next two to three weeks. I'm sure after that they will fix this bug ASAP. Kevin

Incorrect rush cost in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

When I rush an item like a factory that is second or later item in the que, the cost to rush it is reduced by the amount of production put in the first item in the que without reducing the amount put into the first item.

Reply to Twilight of the Arnor Beta 4C in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

I have a few points that I would like to make. I like the idea of minors being able to colonize their own system. This should carry over to other systems if another race gives them a planet in another system. With the latest patch its hard to tell what resource is in a starbase. Could there be an option to go back to the old look. I would like to see brand new tech's that only show up to research if you have two race specific tech's from two different races.

map movement uncontrolled in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Sometimes when I play the map starts scrolling in a uncontrolled way. I can't stop the scrolling at that point except by grabing a ship and actively holding the map in place. Just reloading the game does not get rid of it. The problem will go away if I reload the game after restarting the galciv program. Kevin Lorenz
