Also it is infuriating when I conquer a planet and haven't yet chosen a spot for my manufacturing capital... well guess what, now its a crappy little planet in the corner of the galaxy. Why can't I have a choice to destroy it if I haven't built my own yet?!
Speaking of ridiculous antipiracy nonsense, I bought Bioshock when it first came out, even got the collector's edition. It won't be recognized by my PC, though I've gotten it to read on *a few* of the other PCs I've tried it on. I emailed about the problem and they explained that it was their super beefy antipiracy software that must be mistaking something on my computer for proof that I pirated their game. Among the programs they listed was Daemon Tools, which *gasp* is a program you c
I have recently been curious about the history of Gal Civ, both the backstory as far as the ingame universe as well as the production history of Gal Civ series since I have come across a few allusions to at least one incident where Brad got screwed by a publisher in the past. I stumbled onto this after a few google searches and thought it was fascinating, up until the point where it seemingly stops at an unfinished state. Could you possibly post/write the rest or fix the link so that we can get
Actually, it was just a quick post in which I was erroneously redundant with my wording, which one guy picked up on and then another made it into some sort of veiled insult that was quite beyond my humble capabilities. I just use big words to hide the fact! :O In any case, I think that the gist of what I said came across without needing to disect and correct, eh? >.<
And things dont just materialize out of thin air just cause you paid for it doesnt mean it will appear in front of your face. Unless you paid to buy GalCiv2 online
I've been a fan of the TW series for a long time, as well, having played all of them. Shogun and Medieval were fun but soooo unstable for me, I never did get rid of the CTD bugs completely... Rome and its expansion, on the other hand, have been totally flawless and I've always been fascinated with the ancient Roman empire, so I really enjoyed it. I for one will be purchasing Medieval TW 2 the day it comes out, without any worries, and expecting at least a few CTD bugs before the first patch, and
Most of your suggestions seem to be full fledged minigames within GalCiv2. I highly doubt that the developers are going to try and put in an RTS game *and* a city-building simulator, because GalCiv is a turn based strategy game. Basically if they put both of those options into the game, that's a *lot* less time spent on making the main game. Your ideas sound fun, but are highly impractical from a game developer's point of view.
Wow, that's frusterating and I hope that fifth time was the charm... If you enjoy 4x games, you're in for a treat that I think will make your efforts worth it. Let us know if it turns out to be stable
Also keep in mind that the confirmation/receipt email could have been automatically filtered out by your email provider. Check your junk mail folder if you have one, if not, find out which email address it is sent from and add that to your white list, then request a second receipt and see if that was the problem.
Browncoat!!! ::salutes::
I'm a historian, and its a theory proposed in various essays and books by various historians. If you'd like I can look through my books to find some specific names, but unless you specifically ask I'll not bother because I'm rather lazy
Conspiracy Theory: The American Revolution was really not that revolutionary; the colonists had it pretty good, better quality of life than the people living in England (fact) with a lot less taxes (fact) and the new taxes being introduced were hardly a significant drain on their financial status (fact). They were only being taxed because of the extremely expensive defense of the colonies by the British army and navy during the "world war" that had just occurred (fact). The hullabaloo a
That's extremely homosexual. I didn't mind his overly abrasive preamble, to each his own. The quote above, however... I mean, that's just not cool. Homosexuals are human beings, too. Its not cool to use that word as some sort of synonym for stupid or whatever. Discrimination and hurtful words just based on differences is wrong. Plain and simple.
My main complaint with this post is how my own questions regarding non-political topics were ignored, but the political comments were immediately answered... regardless of the fact that they came after my questions /snarl
There most definately is..
You mean like GDW's old Space 1889 game? Beat me to the punch... haha, good times And definately a weird twist on the generic space setting
Wheeloffire, you have a serious freaking problem with insulting people out of nowhere. Your behavior is totally uncalled for and I'm sick and tired of seeing you troll on posts like this where the person is just asking for help or asking a question. Reality check: you're acting like a jerk. Stop it.
Interesting, I had never really thought about the impact of doing this, though I knew that you *could*. I'm curious if a lot of people change their homeworld later on in their games, and to use which bonuses? Or does it vary game by game for whatever's needed most?
Rawr! I eat villagers!! Feed me or I will knock down your huts!
PS - sorry for double posting, but its not letting me edit my post for some reason... (access denied?) But I am curious if the "When I was 19 and 20" was an inside joke? I don't know if its universally how proof machines work, but 19 and 20 macro is how we log out of a proofing session, so that caught my eye.
A bit off topic, but your blogging interested me so I looked it up, and then from link to link I read your "background" post... and funny thing, I'm a proof operater too!!! Yes, its mind numbingly repetitive to the extreme, but every day I just daydream about the PC games I'll play when I get home... lately GalCiv2 has been the only one that keeps me sane <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2
I think that it would be a fun idea and interesting gameplay concept to have vastly different branches of "engineering" technologies, and each race could have an affinity for particular ones. For example, what I'm thinking would be like this: bioengineering - the ship itself is a living organism metal engineering - basically what we think of when we say a spaceship; made out of metal and plastic and all that.. and I know the name is dreadfully lacking psychic
I tend to agree with the people who complain about the constructor management... I for one don't like waiting for 7 to be ready when I could start getting the returns on each one as soon as possible... but at the same time, its pretty boring to have to constantly be dealing with constructors to begin with. In Civ you can automate workers, but in GalCiv2 there's not much you can do as of now to eliminate the tediousness of the constructor management. I always end up with extras that I th
Maybe they have fun with spreadsheets too? Don't be so judgemental...
I think you're a tard. Wheel of Fire, this is the second time I've seen you insulting someone out of nowhere, using a personal attack. What the hell, man?
