the main difference is that stardock seems to care about the quality of the game primarily, not merely chasing the cash as other game designers do. keep it up!

hi guys I dont often post on galciv forums but i just gotta congratulate u all on this mod. been playin it for a few weeks now and it doesn't even playing galciv2 it feels like a legitimate star trek game, everything birth of the federation should have been. So keep up the good work! one suggestion though, to give the feeling of tech progression like in the star trek universe hull types could be Small NX 01 Class Nova Class Medium <

Dont u guys think $25 for an expansion pack is a bit high? I bought the game of amazon.co.uk for £15, (which is about $25) Paying same price for expansion as full game seems a bit hmm.... P.S It's been a while since i've been on these forums, like it much better with new design!

I've stopped playin until new patch comes out, but Im prepared to wait as long as it takes so we can have a through update

U cant beat alpha centauri! Its almost a decade old and it still has great ideas that other games haven't applied

Im playing on intelligent. The max setting in which the AI doesn't cheat i believe and I think this is too easy. Hopefully the next update will sort the AI out

You can enforce your border by placing a ship at every sinle space around your borders. Would take a lot of ships but that would be the only way to do it in reality

This happens to me evrey single game ive played and every single time ive tried it Whem you ask or demand tech/cash of an alien race they say they'll give you it but never do. I cant be the only one with this problem can I?

Every time I demand tribute from a race, whether it be cash, tech whatever they say they'll give it to me but i never get it. This has happened every single time ive attempted it

dont know if its been mentioned but every time i minimise the game it crashes. and i mean literally every single time. Ive got 3.8ghz 2gig ram 256mb ati raedon x600

I just had a massive war with the arceans and it took so long coz they had a beefed up military base which made all their ships awesome. I only wanted teo of thier planets near my terrritory but the war took about 75 turns and about 50 ships lost each and all because of thier military base. I had to build one nearby just to compete

The only crash I get is when i miniturise the game. Then it crashes 100% of the time Pentium 4 3.8ghz 2 gig ram ATI Raedon x600 256mb

Ive got the exact same problem

Just a thought. Be careful when upgrading the Yor AI, as you are in effect creating the actual software version of the Yor. Make sure it cant escape like on terminator 3.

Dont know if this has been mentioned but does GC2 support it. I want the galactic map on my secondary monitor please!

I've been really looking forward to this game for best part of a year now, and although I'm really looking forward to it I realise that I am not as fanatical as some of you guys So I was wondering what plans you have on release day e.g unplug the phone, phone in sick for work, quit work, split with girlfriend etc. Think i'll say to my fiancee that we need some time apart! about 3 weeks then i'll be able to start resuming my life in a limited sense! <img src="http://image

As someone who does not have the beta can anyone answer this for me? In previous games I never really bother with espionage at all, but judging from some posts it seems that it is going to be a more important factor in this game, with certain tech knowledge etc. So could anyone tell me if theres a big difference in espionage with this game? Cheers!

I just thought of an idea what do you think I've always found alliances quite annoying as you can get dragged into wars that you don't want to be in, and I find defensive alliances not much fun so I thought of this idea. Keep defensive alliances as they are, but if you are on really good terms with another race you could form a full alliance. In a full alliance you are obliged to help defend your ally if he is attacked, but also if one of the allies wishes to att

In gc2 do races respect eachothers territory. It really got on my nerves in gc1 when alien ships are flying next to my major planets. Im a protective guy I like my own space so I dont want aliens flying in my territory willy nilly. Is there gonna be restrictions on where races can travel (with exceptions of freighters and constructors). I would like territory treaties in diplomacy options, heres the options I would have 1) No right of passage 2) Complete right of pa

You could add an eco friendly civ as a minor race. An idea is a peaceful offshoot of the drengin that fled thier world hundreds of years ago and now live in peace abandon agression and live in harmony blah blah blah. This race shouldn't build any ships or new colonies as thier eco friendly and ships are noisy and polluting and they have no reason for space travel. Thier planet quality should be extremely high and anyone who is on friendly terms with them should get a morale boost as they can

Hi there all! As someone who is fairly new to the galciv world I thought I should give you a few thoughts. I bought galciv 1 about 4 months ago (love it by the way), and heard galciv2 was coming out so i thought goody! As someone who doesn't know galciv inside out I've got a few suggestions, and I think newer players might relate to my suggestions. 1) More identity for races - Although the races are great, I just felt that we should know a little more about them.
