Same deal. Just bought it with a friend's coupon, and played 1 game... now this. It WILL continue after awhile, but I have to let it wait as long as 3 minutes sometimes... seems like its probably trying to connect and not making it... probably should refresh the UI a bit so it doesn't look like the game is completely broken. Probably don't want it to hang for up to 3 minutes though.

What?
All I can say is: YAY. hah. I agree completely.
No seriously guys... if I have my sliders on 33% social but no socials selected on a planet, is that going to waste still?
I haven't seen this brought up in awhile, was it fixed and slipped past me?
"The day I hear the guys at Jiffy Lube debating the best Linux-flav is the day it's no longer a hobby." I don't hear them debating Windows XP over 2k either hehe.
hehe i just make x's with my scouts when i'm done with them in my loal area. i start with the top corners, and just go back and forth.. then i go to the middle top, down to middle bottom, left-middle, right-middle, then cross over, etc. but yeah, autoexplore woiuld make it so i could just ignore them.
It does... I owned MoM, and it was practically stated they did that.
I actually found it. I am a spelunker.
Where did people even find out about these games?
heh. if only i lived in michigan.
I'll work for you.
i wonder if running winex in mac osx will make galciv run better than with vpc ;)
thongor: because it's not fun to completely eliminate challenge ;p
I'm sad to see PQ+15 go. It was the only way I was winning, ubt on the same note... that means I obviously had barely any idea what I was doing... SO now I'm not using it and trying to get by with a diplomatic pop growth+morale approach... in the end i guess I do appreciate the change. I've NEVER used the speed bonus though. I didn't know if it made much of a difference.
I don't know what else there'd be besides stat bonuses? You mean, like things that enable new abilities and such? If you look at the heart of it, everything is pretty much going to eventually lead to a stat bonus.
so wait, the PQ+15 IS gone though? That totally destroys my tactics ;) New plan time!
hmmm.. is pop quality +15 no longer available? WHAT WILL I DO?
Alright. In all sensibility though, it doesn't make sense. The reason you can't trade it is because it's a 'monopoly' but now that the race is gone... they no longer should have control of the said monopoly. The good should be free game again.
True. I just tend to build everything, and build according to what i need. if I'm losing money, I'll build more economic structures... if I need the planet to produce faster, I build factories... but that's about it. I always build my trade goods and galactic wonders on Earth though.
Oops. You posted the answer ;)
Does that coupon expire? I'd like to do this upgrade within the next couple of weeks, but wanted to know if I had a TIME limit.
What's the best way to setup the governors to use 'em? I wind up late game saying "I wish I set some up, this sucks!" but I never know what to do with 'em anyway till late in the game. It would be easier to set it up early on, so I could at least assign them to each planet as I gain them... So what do you guys find yo udo with them?
I was wondering, if a trade good is first produced by a minor race, and then you go along and y'know, conquer them... do you get that trade good? Or is it 'lost' forever?
Doesn't the law eventually 'pass over?'
