Btw the Orbital Teraforming tech is by far the best tech in the game . I always go for this tech right out of the gate or close to it . Not only do all your planets go up in value and are teraformed your lowly 1 and 2 planets turn into 15-16 . Also the AI does not colonize PR 1 planets so you can literally get 30+ planets off of the bat just by researching to that tech .

I understand that multiplayer is not a big selling point for the company but man this game would have so much more life if it did Probebly only hardcore people playing at this point anyways but man being able to play against other plays would be insanly awesome ..the AI is to stupid to be fun when you get good at this game

I am 10 years into the game . I have Alliance ,Influence and research victory turned off and all of my alliences won't attack me . Every species has maxed out tech so I dare not attack anybody because will facing 5 years worth of war per remaining species which happens to be 4 ! I am not really asking for advice I am asking have you ever had a game go longer then 10 years ? This gamne will probebly go 20 I bet I guess we'll see ?

It sound to me like you may have decommissioned your default mining ship somehow and that would explain why you cannot mine . If this is the case you need to build a new ship and fit it with a mining module . If that is not the problem it might be as simple as you are not right clicking on the asteroids in order to start the mining process .

I recommend you do your research before you run your big mouth next time . I could see if you looked around and seen tons of people with the same problem but you don't . You need to learn to think before you talk KID ...

I research it all the way because 1: I almost always go for military vic and so I am invading planets like crazy by the time I am building farms and so those 13-16 billion pop planets come in very handy when i am wanting soldiers . 2: When almost all my planets are 13B + it is very hard for the AI to win invasions when they send ships with usully less then 4B soldiers

I have the same issue where every few turns the game crashes. I've also noticed that the game only uses 1gb of real ram and 2gb of virtual even though I have 2gb real and 4gb virtual, though, that may be a windows limitation. (I'm using Vista btw). So what I do is when the auto save fails, I do a manual one, cause I know I'm gonna crash within 2-4 turns. I haven't tunred the silder down on the planet models yet. <b

Personally I don't think you will find fun with this game anymore until the next expansion or a big update . Ive tried all the above suggestions but I have stopped playing . It's a fun game for a good long time though . I'll play a couple of games when ever they have new updates and i'll buy an expansion the next time they have one also , but I went back to EVE online for entertaining myself in-between updates for Gal Civ.

I dont see how you get this to work also . Maybe you could put all the mod ships and mod components into one specific area. Also an explanation on how to get this to work would be awesome . As far as I can tell you need 2-3 mods and the special edition of the game is that right ?

Even if we could build a rocket engine which could hurl colonists or explorers 10x faster then the fastest rocket ever built it would still take about 27,000 years to get there . Exploration of planets outside of our Solar System is going to have to wait for new technological break through . Hopefully some kind of technology will help us to get close to the speed of light someday . If we could even reach 50% the speed of light we could explore a lot of stars within a human life time .

of course its slow with dumb threads like this wasting space. Im just letting you know your an a-hole.. in case you didn't know ,but im sure everyone tells you that. This forum sever is extremely slow at all times of the day . Sometimes taking 1+ minutes to load a topic . It needs some kind of an upgrade because waiting for these threads to load is becoming not worth the time .

Eve is something you have to get into, and by that I mean invest at least 6 months . Getting podded and learning how to deal with pirates and arseholes. The thrills come when you join a corp and you start podding people and getting really good ships and loot . It takes time to get into and is EXTREMELY complicated to learn...masive learning curve for mastering that game much more so then any other mmo .

Yes you can replace the main theme song that plays during gameplay. I have used theme songs ranging from Video games to star trek ...but for some reason I always go back to the one shipped with the game it really doesn't annoy me even after along time of listening to it .

I suggest increasing your page file . Google for directions on how to do that . I have 2 gigs of ram and 4 gigs of page file and I still get massive lag and freeze ups with this game . It's just an issue they need to deal with. This game should not be more of a system hog then Oblivion for gods sakes ..

Go here https://www.galciv.wikia.com/wiki/Cheats_and_keyboard_shortcuts btw getting annihilated is part of this game and teaches you to be a better player . I only use cheats if the game is boring me just to spice things up.

Well they can bring a serious hurt onto an enemies production or research if you place them on the right spots . I always make a bunch and place them on enemy manufacturing and technology capitols . Then when they get other major things I'll put a spy on them also . They are also good for nullifying an enemy agent .

Weeks have passed and the completion of the First Terran Starbase has been inaugurated . I was personally on hand to cresson the new Star base which should create a massive increase in Tourism and help the influence of the Terran allience grow beyond measure. It has been reported to me that the Flag ship came across a new type of energy which after some researching should yield as much as a 10% improvement to wepaons !!

It would seem that our Flag Ship the USS Emerson has stumbled onto something never before encountered in history Terran Kind . While probing for colonizable worlds they found what our scientists think will help our influence in the galaxy by providing our trading ships with something no alien could possible resist being interested in . They will flock to our worlds to get even a small glimpse of this unique and precious resource which is beyond description. <img src="http://i11.photobucket.
