Cripes, get a room., you two. j/k I hear ya about getting fired up at the OP. After witnessing Brad and co.'s amazing support for several years now, it really chaps my ass to see some putz without a clue talking weak smack.
Chill Marcathonas, I believe that Zippyriver was giving you props for your comment about the DNF devs sitting around playing GC2. I'd respond to the OP, but, my mama always told me tht if ya can't say nuthin' nice, shut the hell up!
First learned about Stardock on the old "Atari" MoO3 forums, where I was following that nightmare's arduous journey into gaming infamy. After a week or so of playing that, I decided to give GC a try, and have never looked back.
Thanks Damoose, now testing.
Howdy Diplomats. Just finished my 4th game, using Beta3, Large, abundant everything, fast research, custom race, challenging. Time to step up the difficulty, cuture win in 3 years was too easy. Hope to have game 5 done by Sunday. Edit: Curious, my medals aren't showing up, any ideas?
1. Open Stardock Central. 2. Click "Games". 3. At the top left of the screen, click "Tools", then ""Check for application updates". 4. If your game needs patching, it'll show up beside the game title. 5. Choose "Install".
Saw this same thing in a game I submitted to the MV over the weekend(which was flagged as "cheat codes detected?). I think it was the Torians, they built a mining base near my homeworld, or I may not have noticed it. Suffice to say, there was definitely no resource visible there.
I'm kinda undecided on it currently. In the game I'm playing now, I got a pretty good start, colonized about a half dozen worlds, and shortly found myself top of the heap, playing with the max allowable civs. I controlled a sizable chunk of space, and was doing about 40% of the research. Once I'd built up a bit of a fleet, I began taking out my neighbors, beginning with the godless Yor, of course. Upon taking a couple of their worlds, they surrendered their remaining ones
Congrats FC! Finally got one game submitted, influence victory on a tiny map, paltry score. Hopefully I'll have more time this week to play.
Heads up for my fellow Diplomats! Civfanatics is running a contest, sponsored by Stardock, which will give 10 lucky folk a free copy of the Collector's Edition.

Whew, had me worried there for a sec, couldn't believe that would be the case. Thanks for the quick replies guys, was just about to continue a metaverse game started yesterday, and really wanted to be sure first. I had hoped to be able to start and finish over the weekend, but Saturday just wouldn't cooperate with my plans. Now, back to my Yor-less universe.
Wait a second here, are you guys saying that if I load a saved game started in the Metaverse, without first logging back into the metaverse, that game won't be accepted? If that's the case, I'm about to become a very unhappy customer.
@Damoose, classic games, no electronics, though I have had in store PC gaming in the past, and may be re-instituting it this summer. Primarily carry boardgames, CCGs, and RPGs, and run a lot of tournaments, including premier events for MtG. Gotta agree with some of the comments about the forums here, I'm not in love with them, though the company's great. For any of you interested, CivFanatics has opened a new sub-forum for GC2, yesterday in fact, and there are already over 250 posts
The tutorials are actually very good, you should give them a look. Also, the journals section has some very good game examples.
Thanks for that link, Rhadman, had me rolling. Good stuff.
I have a Radeon as well, 2 of them actually, a 9600 on my work PC, and a 9800XT on my home rig. CivIV runs just fine on both machines, as does GalCiv2. But, I do sympathize with those whose machines aren't able to run either one, they're missing out on 2 great games. Back on topic, the new GalCiv2 sub-forum is now open for business at CFC, check it out here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/forumdisplay.php?f=192 Many thanks to Thunderfall and co.! <img
For some reason, I just expect other web sites to have people trolling about about the game, but instead there seems to be a general feeling of...for lack of a better word...love flowing about the title. Agreed. Though Gamespot has yet to publish their review, the user reviews have been almost unanimously positive, and are ave
There's been a lot of discussion about GC2 at Civfanatics the past week, I post there as Duelingground. Game discussion thread: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=157758 2 ongoing reviews: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=161193 http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=160915 And finally, a petition to give GalCiv it's own subforum that is gaining momentum. http://forums.civfanatics.co
Have they all fallen to the Yor? Have they been assimilated into another empire? I've been away from the forums for a long while, but GC2 has got me hooked, big time, and before I submit a game, I'd like to do so as part of an empire. Anyone know what's up with the GG?
