Hi I am new to the forums but have been reading them for a while, I am somewhat concerned over the idea of a TBS game without any real standalone multiplayer feature. This is without a doubt one of "THE" most important features of any TBS or RTS game. Replay value is somewhat limited in single player mode after you have played the campaign and a number of generated universes. It is the multiplayer element that provide the additional frill factor that keeps a decent TBS/RTS game going long after the single player mode gets boring.
I am not entirely sure how the metaverse works but from what I have been able to see it is based on team vs team conquest of sectors on a galactic map.
If I am wrong then please correct me.
I must admit it was the possibility of having 8 of my mates around on a LAN game of GC2 that really got me interested, but now I find I won't be able to do that, it kinda takes he shine off of the polished game if you know what I mean.
Anyway like some comments and thoughts on the subject, be civil and constructive.
