I was really excited about this game. Until I found that Microsoft have restricted downloads of this game to North America only. This is complete and utter bullcrap. There is more to the world than just 50 states and Canada! The whole point of the internet is to share information and indeed, free games created by summer interns. Why Microsoft thought this was even an alright idea I will never know. Looks like the only new XBLA game for the kiwi's this week will be Soli

The original Galciv had Antimatter Missiles. Couple that with the auto-attack function and you had yourself a mine. Interplanetary Missiles would have been a neat feature in GC2..

Before I invaded the Caranoid planet I had placed several spies on their planet, this was to ruin any attempt to build starships. After the invasion it seems that my spies were still trying to sabotage the planet, and so I was receiving the penalties..from my own spies! Thankfully removing them VIA the espionage menu proved quite easy. SUMMARY: When a planet is invaded and the invader still has spies on the planet, said spies will still be in effect. RECCOMEND
Hi, a few months ago (not being old enough to own a credit card) my mother brought the DA beta with the mail account "cvincent(at)cheerful.com" I would like to transfer the ownership of the account to my account (anticheese(at)gmail.com). How may I do this?
I've never seen minor races get a bit uppity after the "After working with the minor race of X...X are particulary interested in procuring our star systems" message.
Uh..Beta version? It's been released AND it's at version 1.08 Personally I'm enjoying the game, the new ship design interface is a little bit confusing and I'm not sure I approve of the massive leveling up system of the tech tree (Putting a few million points into projectile weapons will yield a D.U cannon that can blow up a planet!) but otherwise it's a nice game.
I think I speak for the community when I say that Stellar Frontier should at least be added to SDC and be given a matchmaking server.
Suggestion - Make the PRS more effective on evil
Starship weaponary pretty much are turrets allready (Insofar as they have a huge fireing arc) Animated swiveling would be a neat addition to work in though.
Templates? That's something I'll look foward to. It's a minor feature but I'm glad I no longer have to have unaltered (save for extras) hull designs kicking around. Mega events + Intellegent placer? Yes!, But say the Drengin find a piece of the Telnath crystal (Galciv I veterans will remember this), Will the scale of diplomacy tipped so that I can help incite a war against the Drengin befor it's too late? I.E
^^ Proberbally because the writer wanted random events to be left in. Anyhow, I notice that there are a lot of high powered weapons in the screenshots, Would it only be fair to add (almost) high powered defence systems in turn?
One thing though, Can we please have an information pop up window for the Racial Behavoiur window? I'd like to know what each racial behaviour does.
Con - On larger maps combat can occur up to 10 times per round so it would just be a real pain in the behind.
I'm just wondering, How long untill preorders close? Thanks!
You can also indirectly compete with other players by comparing score, and also you get theese cool little tags at the end of your forum posts.
HTML export I believe... Looks to be an impressive feature!
The Koh-Ah are a better choice than the Kzea-Zah, The former exists to erradicate all life and the latter to subjugate it. Is it possible to set the Koh-Ah to play as genicidioal/Xenophobic maniacs each game?
Or perhaps you could build an economy starbase, Or even a trade route to said shipyard (It would not generate trade, But would give it more production points)
In theroy, As many tiles as there are in the game * 10 In practice? Once you hit 40 quality ships or so maintennance really drags your budget down.
I reckon the AI works on proximity at lower levels and PQ at mid to high. Guess its kind of like a guy not renting the mansion and instead the apartment because it has a subway down the road.
"Well men, Its all over." "You mean that we lost the war?" "Lost the war AND surrendered to the Drengin." "Oh, Thought I heard Williams singing" "Hey!" "Enough of that men, We will do that the last 3 races did before us: Self destruct." "Self destruct eh? Do we get a word in it?" "No."
The game can be easily modded, So just draw some cartoony missiles and create a new invasion tactic that gets unlocked 6 steps down the missile tree.
Improves beam weapons I think
Hello there, I have been playing a game called Weird Worlds in Infinate Space. For those who dont know its a game where you take control of a ship and go around the galaxy exploring for stuff and junk. Anyhow, I was struck with an idea: What if a mod were created for Wierd Worlds that allowed the players to play a role in the Galciv II universe! Unfortunatly perhaps the most I could do in the way of modding is replace the piciture and theme song of some of the races with th
