Good morning daEvilMoose!

Reply to Would people want Mega events? in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

Good ideas, Dano13 and Archonsod! Such events could really give a lot of spice to GalCiv. It should be possible to deactivate them and to say "at least one must happen".

Reply to Will DA include 'no surrender' option? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I find the best way to get the AI to surrender to you is to completely destroy its naval power, and have lots of ships in his influence zone, but *not* invade any planets. Often enough you can even ask for all their planets as a "peace" treaty once all their ships are gone and you have some transports nearby. Saves you a lot of trouble - and a lot of

Reply to Would people want Mega events? in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

How about a super powerful invasion fleet of either good or evil beings. They have only a certain number of uber ships ... BUT ... the least powerful good or evil race ally with them, riding on their coat tails to achieve galactic power once again. Sounds great! I'm all for (optional) super-crazy events! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/s

please none that spawn huge amounts of miniature ships everywhere Argh! I might want to revoke my statement from above!

Reply to Can't buy planets from other civs in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

To answer the original poster: You can buy planets from other civs. It's just that they're very, very expensive.

I second the proposal of a "no surrender" option.

Reply to Xeno Entertainment vs. Stock Exchanges in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I do agree that the nerfing of the morale buildings is puzzling. Personally I didn't see the need to build them before and still don't see any need for them. Fully agreed. I built them on large planets with a planned population of 100b, but even that is no longer worth it.

D. Gold in october, stores early september(ish) I like this one. When did Stardock invent Time Travel? (oh, and was the research breakthrough presented by the good or the bad robot? <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Laugh.gif" border=0 AL

Any chance you will update the GalCiv2 Wiki - Difficulty Levels for the new levels added in v1.3 and clarify the old ones? Eventually. Thanks, this would be very welcome. <img src="smiles/Smile.gif" borde

Reply to The art of getting updates... in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

I'm looking forward to a multiplayer expansion too and will buy it. I wonder how many people might be attracted by GalCiv that aren't now once it has multiplayer. I think it's not a negligible number - and having no account here, they didn't participate in the polls.

Reply to Slightly faster research in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Research is fast enough as it is, I think. And there's no need to encourage players to wage wars either.

Reply to End of Summer AI work in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

I'm curious about one thing: Do you have a favourite AI? Or one that you consider hardest to play against?

Reply to End of Summer AI work in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

Glad u have fixed this. However in all my suicidal games, all opposing AI's were really at ultimate intelligence/unknown relations. Did not even know u could do this till now. Same for me. Oh, all those missed opportunities!

Thanks for all your work on the AI, it's very welcome!

Reply to Spending Sliders - Why in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

The point is that it isn't realistic that you're not allowed to tell your labs and your factories to work at 100% of their possible output at the same time. Why should the labs have to limit themselves to 40% just because factories (military + social) are running at 60%? As long as you have the money, it should be possible to have up to 100% research and up to 100% production at the same time.

i keep deleting the ship designs in my "...My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2\ships" folder but they keep resurfacing. There is "...My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2\Metaverse\ships" as well.

Reply to How can I download the German version? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

You cannot, AFAIK. Paradox Interactive is the publisher for Europe and they have made the translation, I don't think the translated versions are available through Stardock.

Reply to AI's Lack of Interest in Sensors Places it at a Huge Disadvantage! in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

However, planets remain limited to a range of around 4, even those with ships in orbit! This makes no sense! I agree. The "ability value" in sensors should be added to planet sight range, including any boosts occurring. And the AI seems to be ignoring the sensor techs indeed. I wonder if this is fully intentional.

Reply to Dark Avatar Update in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

Yes, the alliance system could need some changes. Right now it favours the player significantly, both with the AI not breaking alliances at all and the possibility to sneak in alliances with nothing but bribes.

Reply to 1.3 Beta 2 | Colonies List position lost when changing production in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Would it be possible to add a short way to buy social improvements directly from the colony list? Like a right-click on the project listed there?

Reply to Dark Avatar Update in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

Can the same programing that records metaverse scores be added to the game so we can have score-keeping on our PCs for ALL played games? I agree, that would be a very nice addition.
