Suicidal is the only level that I find challenging. Anything lower and the computer opponents are pushovers.

What a badly titled thread. It really sounds so juvenile and arrogant, like a sad cry for attention. Sure it's flawed, but it's certainly not a scandal. It has already been addressed in other threads. If you don't like it, don't use it. It certainly doesn't affect my enjoyment of the game.
I want space monsters.
Nowadays, with games requring 3 or 4 CDs (I wish retailers would universally accept DVDs but that's a different issue), keeping CDs around to play is annoying. I agree, especially since DVD players have been cheaper than new games for a long time. So why did you put GC2 on 2 CDs instead of 1 DVD?
I know a lot of girls who play the Sims, and RPGs, but none who play wargames. I've known a few girls who play chess. When I use to play Pimpwars I had a couple of girls on my team, but even that was a bit unusual since there were very few girls who played that game.
Anyone have a Matrox TripleHead2Go adapter? http://www.matrox.com/graphics/offhome/th2go/home.cfm Can you imagine having it on 3 screens?
The widget creator said, I have permission from SD/GCII to create these widgets and use their graphics. I can understand that they need your permission to use your artwork from the game, but do they also need permission to create widgets with Desktop X? That seems kind of annoying. Do you have the End User License Agreements posted on your websi
So what exactly is the difference between a cheat and a trainer?
Precursor10, I strongly disagree with your first point. That is the same as cheating, and it's a cheat I wouldn't like to see in the game. Point 8, has been neutered since in the next patch they're removing the attack adavantage. They won't need to make the AI better at attacking; they will make it a tougher punching bag. I think in the end you're just going to have to give up hope of having a competitive AI, at least competitive to anyone who knows how to play strategy g
I wouldn't even look at UFO:AM/UFO:AS. Both recieved bad reviews, and even worse were infected with Starforce.
The 3rd one isn't that great, but the first two work well. Why is it a low, or cheese tactic? The Air Force AWACS planes are Boeing 767s. Why bother using a warship hull for something when a cargo will work just as well? Do you use cargo hulls, or warship hulls for your military transports?
I would like to be able to set up an AI only game, and have it running on one of my PCs. It would be far more entertaining than any "reality" TV shows.
and it also qualifies as abandonware, so acquiring a less-than-completely-legit copy is technically not illegal, and besides noone exists who would bother to prosecute if it were. While no one may bother to sue you if your not making money off of it, its legal status has not changed because it's abandonware. Acquiring an illegitimate copy is still a
Congratulations!
We are all trying to win the game somehow, but the AI players aren't. Yes, but they should be trying to win.
Those choices favor evil, but the UP votes, and diplomacy usually go against evil.
It doesn't stop a person from resetting the galaxy; it just makes it take longer. Frogboy and other developers have said that crtl+N isn't a cheat. My solution would be to make sure the races are spread out more evenly rather than completely random. No one, human or AI should have to start in a corner surrounder by 3 other races.
Brad did say that they did make sacrifices in the AI to make it quicker. Personally I would prefer the AI was better than quicker. Even a slower AI would probably be a lot quicker than a human player.
Lokiju and Zedt - the no production on a turn isn't a bug. It's a feature. You say it's a feature, but it looks like a bug. And as Lokiju pointed out, no one from Stardock will confirm it either way.
Bring back the space monsters! Save the Space Sharks!
The best defense is a good offense.

I think I've heard Terra Nova, more often that Neo Terra, but Neo also gets overused in sci-fi.
Quit thinking so small. I want a wormhole weapon that can destroy the entire universe.
I think Nova, is another one. Seems in every sci-fi medium there's a planet or ship named, Nova something.
