Reply to MORE Mega Events! in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

There are so many ideas in this thread so I'm not sure if something like this has already been suggested...... How about a Mega Event that affects the space-time continuum? Depending on the size/power of the Mega Event maybe a few subtle changes to the game to maybe huge changes that throw the outcome into a new direction.

Hi RoPa - Sorry for the trouble you've been having. We've run into some issues on our end that we've since resolved. Please set SDC to US-1 (or US-2) and make sure that Show pre-release versions is not checked. You should be able to download DA and the Heightmaps as expected. I tried what you suggested and all is well now! Thanks for the help Yarlen! Thanks to Autistic Angel for the reply. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_

Hmm, only one of the three available updates was completed, the Dark Avatar (Expansion Pack) 1.60[b].001 and the Heightmaps 1.59[b].009 do not update, a Stardock error message box pops up and says "The beta of the application you are attempting to download is not available" I've tried the Refresh Application XML Data in the Stardock settings and still it won't work. I've also tried both of the available servers US-1 and US-2.

This isn't probably a Mega Event......It would be cool if you could add a new type of Constructor to the game which I'm thinking could be a Shipyard Constructor. How handy would it be if you could send off an Shipyard Constructor to some far off spot on a map and set up a Shipyard to start churning out ships.

I liked the old SSI AD&D Gold Box games, since they are Turn Based (as they should be). Ah yes, I've played all the way through from Pool of Radiance to Secrets of the Silver Blades several times on my Commodore 64. I never got into Pool of Darkness though, I didn't think it was all that good. I loved those games. When Curse of the Azure Bonds came out I was in a software store looking at the box co

50, married almost 30 years, two adult daughters. Wife has never minded the gaming side of me. Started out with the Intellivision when it first came out, also had ColecoVision, Sega Genesis, NES and Super NES. Never got into the Xbox or Playstation stuff.

Don't play too many games these days, GC2 and NHL Eastside Hockey Manager 2007 are about the only ones, probably average an

Sad to see Computer Games Magazine go down. Back in the mid/late 80's & early/mid 90's I used to get all my PC gaming news from Strategy Plus, CGW and PC Format.

Well, considering all the advertisements and the media on the sites clearly show a Dark Avatar box, I will complain, as my CD arrived a few days ago. I do feel misled by this. There was no info anywhere to state that we would only get a CD in a sleeve. Box image + CD = boxed CD. Thats basic human understanding. You clearly have a pack shot of a box. If I'd have known, I would have ordered the boxed version with GC 2.<br
