Quick question in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I am sure this has been asked before and the answer might be somewhere. If so, I am sorry. I want to know if there is a way to get the game to play itself with no human player and it can be paused and we can look around and watch it? Thanks in advance.

Reply to The arguement FOR multiplayer. in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

the only multiplayer that makes the most sense for a game like this is play-by-e-mail (PBEM). I have played several games over the years of Space Empires III in that fashion. But , there are some drawbacks to that: 1. I think the developer tends to rely on the PBEM/multiplayer feature to carry the game and the AI ends up being crap. Case in point is Space Empires 3. 2. Games that could have been enjoyed over a few days or weeks can take months and as you said, years to

Reply to Galactic Civilizations II v1.2 Betas targeting this week... in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

It is in v1.11 already. Not much AI uses it currently but it gets enhanced over time. Is it an option somewhere as you mentioned a while back? Sorry if I'm missing something, but i looked through the option and setup screens of 1.11 and couldn't see it. I cannot find it either.... I must be blind. Thanks

How to convey displeasure to another race in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

In my current game, there is another race that has parked a troop transport near my world, watching and waiting a presume. Anyway, the current relationship I have with them neutral. But how do I convey to them to move along? I would do same to them they would be able to tell me that they see me doing this and do not like it (based upon what I have read). Anyway, thanks

Reply to 1.0X change log in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

Just to clarify, if I have a game in progress that has "custom ships" should I finish it first before loading the patch? I do not want to lose the substance of my game but if my *bling* is gone but functionally the ships capabilities are the same I do not care. Thanks

Reply to Galactic Civilizations: The case for no multiplayer in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

PBEM and other non-real time options are a lot more doable and wouldn't compromise the game. Multiplayer isn't particularly hard to do, but for head to head, real time play, GalCiv II wouldn't be very fun IMO. But if ther'es demand, we can do it. My opinion is this. For the many reason that Brad has already stated, the RTS and multiplayer

KFC, I tend to agree with some of what others are saying concerning your reactions. From a Christian perspective (and others as well I think) the world is a world of free choice. From the Christian perspective there will be those who will not see it, get it, understand it, believe it, etc. and you certainly will not be the deciding factor. Faith in God, for most, is very difficult. There are alternate theories, beliefs, etc that

Both sides should be respected. How often do the hole poking attempts happen because the nonchristian is getting preached to and told they only feel the way they do because they don't know any better? It's a two way street. Both sides should be able to state how they feel, what they believe without being told they are wrong.

It is a wonderful thing for you to feel so squared away with your beliefs. Others have come to different conclusions yet feel equally fulfilled. You don't have to accept that but you should respect it. As with the rest of the bible, you can believe the story of Noah to be true and perceive the "obvious truths" but you can't prove

Considering that humans only lived to be 40-45 years old back then, it's doubtful that those people actually knew Jesus. While this may be true there are always exceptions no? If could also be said that Shakyamuni Buddha did not exist either...
