Reply to Gamer looking for a great empire to join. in Game Talk Stardock Forums

LOL Empires will come aplenty once the game is launched. There are no plans for the forums to have their own empire section as in GC1 so expect to see LOTS of empire related posts come next week. BTW why not start your own empire its easily done

Reply to Galactic Civilizations II: Quick Video Demo in GalCiv II News Stardock Forums

Great idea. One thing though.. Could you please indicate how big the links are. For those of us over the other side of the Atlantic, the speed we receive data at is somewhat reduced and it would be nice knowing how big a file we are looking at downloading

Reply to What's the Early game like(BETA TESTERS) in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

GC1 was a speed game where as GCII is more aimed at a longer play. I have never been one for micro-management, however now you can pretty much decide how much you want to manage and how much to let the computer take over for you!! The ship building and design are fantastic too and very easy to use to boot.

Reply to Ethical Alignments in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

This believe it or not is a really good question. I have been playing the beta from the word go and as of yet have not had my allignment move from neutral even though i have made several 'evil' choices.

In GCI it made an impact from the start and that was one of the things i liked about the game! Now i may have this all wrong and it is making a difference and i just cant see it, and

Reply to GETTING THE GAME FAQ HERE!!! in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

1) From Kim at Stardock sales.. You get the same as those that pre-order at present. Basically for $20 you are purchasing the Collectors edition. 2) Sorry not sure but i believe the answer is yes. TGN move 1 serial holders will receive the same as those who have pre-ordered.

Reply to Gal civ 1 while we wait in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Well i have had access to the beta from the start and whilst i do like the new game, as parts of it far outstrip GC1, i am still playing GC1 and thoroughly enjoying it. I guess as Galciv 1 mods manager i do have all the resources at hand (after single handly checking most of the mods out) it is no more than the rest of you can get. My version of the game is far removed from the simple one i first bought in a local shop because i liked the look of the box, it is so modded i doubt many things are
