Wow, you guys just keep outperforming yourselves. I wonder, is the fact we're surprised about the quality and quantity of this expansion more a commentary on Stardock's dedication to excellence or the lack of present in other games.
I think I like it this way, reminds me of Alpha Centauri. Granted not all the entries in that game were encyclopedic. ()*^% when will they ever come out with another Alpha Centauri game, that thing was far better than any of the Civ games I've played.
Dear (*^%%$ thats bigger than it looked in notepad -I'll edit that out tomorrow at noon and then email it in to the bugs department.
Having problems updating. The pop screen comes up telling me I can update DA to 1.8 from 1.70d(b).001. I allow it to update DA, and only DA, and it says waiting, 3.., 2..,1.. then restarts the countdown. After that it says a module failed to load, or such. I'd give a detailed repeat of what it said but by manually selecting DA and clicking update in my games tab in SDC I was able to update. I did however get a log opened from the error, I'll paste that below. Feel free to delete it or tel
lol nice to know. I thought it was weird when ever planet I captured was able to build me a new top of the line ship in 1 turn. And I'm talking even the 3 PQ planets with 1 low end factory.
Could you make these changes optional, you know put em into the option menu somewhere? I know other posters have mentioned the idea, but I'd just like to voice my support for it even if these new settings will be the default.
Will we have the option of using the old tech tree?
Edited out.
From a realism standpoint I agree, from a game play standpoint I don't think it should.
No crashes on the latest version so far.
Wooooo, can't wait. So glad I pre-ordered.
Getting more and more psyched for this!!
The current version is 1.7c[b].001. So is 1.7c[b].003 old or?
lol, I`ll have to try out the trial then.
Did I end the world?
Can you do everything to Vista that you can do to Xp?
As a semi-side note, I think that implementing actual borders (instead of just using cultural borders as a quasi-border) is silly! This is space. Sure your race might have influence over a large portion of space but it is not really owned by anyone. What are you going to do to declare owners
Personally I think that cultural borders should be different from the influence borders. Just make the cultural borders extend a certain set distance from the planets you own. So lets say that you have one planet, the cultural border would extend say 5 parsecs out from it in a circle unless it comes in contact with an alien border. You could also make it a bonus that if you have all the planets possible in a solar system you get a larger circle originating from the star, say 15 parsecs
Great, sooo where the hell do I download it? Stardock Central... click enable pre-release versions
I can't wait, this expansion is going to be just wow. Are you guys taking your experience with the different tech trees (and all that comes from such) and applying it to your Unnamed Fantasy 4x game? If you guys even take just a bit of what's in GalCiv2 it should be freakin fantastic.
This thread needed a post... it just didn't feel right.
I love it! If I hadn't pre-ordered already I'd be sorely tempted to do so now.
Hmm good idea. It'd be nice if we could add more AI's to a game too... but lol that might bring us up to the 2gb limit far too often/fast.
I had it come up in one game, I was being beatin down at the time so I couldn't tackle them and the other AI's had all decided 1 turn before the event that I was a menace to the galaxy so focus'ed on me... I was around just long enough to see the new and improved Korx kick the crap out of everyone.
I have an 8800gtx, along with vista home premium 32bit and I can say that there are no outstanding problems. I do however play on gigantic maps and it does crash every so often, it also crashes when I hit esc and go to make a new game. I'm guessing I may be hitting the 2gb ram/page file limit. I also have the latest nvidia beta drivers, required for Bioshock.
