Well, we could always appeal to the pagan Winter Solstice holiday thing if you wanna be strict about it. Bring on the debauchery! :HOT:
Imaginos
Love the xmas logo! :D Nice 'n' evil. >:( That's right, vincible..grammar be damned! LOL
Sounds like some fun additions to GalCiv. :D Love evil ships! :HOT: Will these new ships have their own techs or will they be activiated by already existing techs? Can't wait for the expansion. :CONGRAT:
I bought GalCiv and MOO3 at the same time as well (MOO3 was discounted to $20 because that's the price that I usually don't consider games to be significant economic losses). To date, I've probably played about 3 hours of MOO3 and that was just trying to figure out what the hell was going on. >:( I haven't even reinstalled it since I formatted the computer last..lol. "I'm adjusting these bars, I dunno if this is helping..." and such were what one might overhear me saying while playing that game
Yup, finals time around here, so I've had to avoid playing GalCiv too much or else I'd find myelf playing all day and not getting my studying done. ;p More variety of ships would be a very fun thing. :D This may have been mentioned before, so feel free to smack me if I'm being repetitive, but is there any word on whether units would be customizable in GalCiv2, such as in Alpha Centauri or, (dare I say it?) MoO3? Or was that deemed to be an unnecessary complication? I don't really have
Make sure your video settings are 1) 16-bit color (won't work in 32-bit) and 2) resolution over 1024x768. That's always what catches me when I'm not looking. :)
Yup, Sci-Fi shows a few of the more recent episodes saturdays at 9am eastern, though that'll probably stop after this year (they seem to repeat the same 5 or 7 of them over). Doesn't matter much to me though, since I have pretty much every episode known to exist. :D
Nope, not a scientist. I just watch too much MST3K. ;p
Don't mind 'em at all bakka. :) Serves 'em right. :P I may not be the most skilled player out there, but I'm bad to the bone. :HOT: *singing* It's a sinister day in the laboratory, a sinister day in the laboratory.
Yes, I will accept the charges. LOL New Evil Empire member here..just joined earlier today. :) Now if only there was an evil-looking emoticon on here. ;p
Alright, you guys twisted my arm and I took and went and gone and joined an empire..muahahahahaha!
Yeah, Peerguardian went nuts when I first got to the site. Anyway, go GalCiv!! :D
Professional poor college student.
At least there's a way to pre-order by check through snail-mail. :) I'm probably going to have a pre-order sent in the very near future.
That's the third proposition I've had to join the dark side. Not exactly voices in my head, but it's close enough. LOL
Glad I'm not the only one who sees that the minors have gotten way too aggressive when it comes to expansion. I had one game where two minor races each had about 7-8 star systems! (large map) They also must have been banging out trade goods and galactic wonders every other turn. Having somewhat active minor races can add more dimension to the game, but when they're trampling the majors underfoot, then things are a bit out of hand. I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say there should be an option f
I've been seriously considering going over to the dark side, Lord Megatron. :HOT: Hopefully the weekend will bring plenty of oportunity for GalCiv-ing. Fear me Drengins, for I am cruel, mean and unforgiving! Muahahahahaha.
*Watching clock anxiously* Is it Monday yet? Thanks for the heads up on the delay. Can't wait. :D
This is strictly a cosmetic judgment call, but I like the Drengins just because of their really evil sounding theme music. :D Now, I've only played lower difficulty levels so far, but they also tend to keep one or two other AI civilizations busy with constant warfare in my games, and sometimes an AI civ will surrender to me if they're getting beaten up too badly. :HOT:
So that's how one changes one's nickname. Thanks. I'm kinda new here, so I was wondering how to do that myself. :HOT:
