Top Metaverse Players look here

March 20, 2006 4:42:09 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums

We're looking to improve the AI so that it plays better on the higher levels of the game.  We'd really appreciate it if you would take the time to document your strategies, playing styles, etc and send us in a report on how you're getting those high scores.  We will use this information to make the AI smarter and more lifelike at the higher levels.

Please send your reports to carielf@stardock.com with the subject Metaverse Strategies.

Thanks!

*ponder*

What constitutes a "Top Metaverse Player"? Are you looking more for strategies, or to plug the, hmm, scoring loopholes?

I would guess those on the top 10 list, I'm curious if that will ever be reset, or will it just accumulate.

Eh. Stardock, you do know you can edit your custom civ to give yourself super bonuses?

Excellent strat, the AI should do that!


Err... wait.


FWIW, I think that makes your game unsubmittable.

Influence starbases are overpowered, you don't even need to take Pacifists or +influence abilities. In gigantic universe if you control all the influence starbases then the game is already over..... and AIs will trade all their starbases to you for a few techs or cash, I usually have them all by end of year 1. Well really the mining starbases in general are just insanely overpowered in large, huge, and gigantic universes.

AI's should value starbases about as much as they value their planets or maybe just make the mining ones totally untradeable.
