Spell it: W-R-O-N-G!!! You dont play multiplayer with those people!! HOW HARD IS THAT TO UNDERSTAND!? With turn based games you do multiplayer with your FRIENDS!!! Do you have friends? You get together at certain times, do turns until they dont want to play, save the game, and continue later, repeat. You people are the most ill informed people on the planet,

I also aways try to invade the world with a full fleet, although I don't think it makes much difference in the late game

Reply to Delete in Warfare GalCiv2 Forums

I like to use a maxed out fleet full of 2000 troop transports to invade. With a massive enemy population I may send in a 500 or 1000 troop single transport using mass driver support to soften them up before my main invasion force. I may use mini-soldiers if I have a bunch of money and am unsure of my odds, like on the first assault on a new empire. If their morale sucks, I use info warfare to grab more troops. Often I don't use up a transport with info warfare. <

Reply to AI "surrenders" to another CIV and the reaction of anyone with reason in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Actually, current way is very unrealistic and "gamey", a way to artificially spoil victory for someone (reducing joy element instead of increasing it), without some common sense. Why would your friend accept surrenter of your enemy if he knew it would lead to bad relations or even war? I like to think of it as a faction o

Reply to Is loading a previous saved game cheating? in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

That occured in 1.12.009 where some games started under 1.11 and continued under 1.2.009 were flagged as cheating. This has been fixed in the new version of the Beta that should be released today according to Carielf from Stardock. Normally, If you save a game and then reload it, it is not officially flagged as cheating. But if you do it just to avoid or change a result you didn't like, most people would consider that cheeeeeeeeesy. You gotta live with yoursel

Reply to Beta 1.2 bugs in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I then later upgraded those allen designs to an upgraded medium ship design of my own which had some SD jewelry. All of the alien ships converted to my new upgraded ship class , but all the jelewry was funky becasue they were trying to

Reply to beta 009 in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

The .009 mode I think fixed a file "sphere.x "and reverted it back to old file. The changed file was supposed to be more effecient but it caused some compatability issues. Some early installers found it was doing a weird thing to the dimensions of stars with their display cards. They posted the bug, and had a temporary fix up within a couople hours. The Stardock guys stayed up late (early Saturday am) to fix it the Beta and Frogboy posted it up at 3:00 Central time

Reply to GalCiv2 offering no fun on huge/gigantic maps in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Waay back during interviews for GalCiv I, Frogboy mad a discussion about AI in gaming and in strategic games in general, It was something to the effect that in the real world, your allies don't defect on you when you are winning the war. That was meant to criticise the AI cheat where every civ would turn against you when you are winning, just to try to make the game harder to win. I understand that point of view and I like it. But I also like the new fear component in 1
