I was wondering if their is plans for adding a custom starting system for custom races. As it stands now its either random, or you can put some star in like SOL and it will be the humans system. Is their any plans going ahead for maybe a point based system, ie. like how every other custom race feature in handled, that can be used for creating star systems? I know you can do so out side of game by editing an XML file but it should be more mor

In Galciv 1 the interface/music changed when you switched between alignments. I've never really noticed this happening much, besides maybe music, in the beta. Is this going to be a feature in the game? Definately adds ambiance to an "evil" or "good" civ.

Every multiplayer TBS game I've ever played on-line versus strangers goes goes something like this: 1) I play for an hour and the other guy quits. 2) I play for an hour and the game starts to turn in my favor slightly. Guy quits. Whether this be CIV IV or HOMM3 or MOO2. Yes thats why whenever I see someone

The one main thing that annoys me with this game is the build reports that it gives you at the beginning of the turn. It only zooms to the planet's production queue. When you have a lot of territory and you are building ships it gets difficult to move all over to find the planet that the ship was built on. What i'm saying is why isn't it when you press the icons on the right-hand side of the screen that shows ship built that it doesn't just

Playing Galciv2 and reading what their adding it sounds more like they took the best from GALCIV + some ideas from Alpha Centauri than from MOO2. This game is completely different to what MOO2 was, almost like a completely different genre. That definately isn't a bad thing, imo SMAC is the best game ever made and combining its winning elements with what we allready had in GALCIV will only equal success. Also the fact that the origional concept of Galciv on OS/2 was like Ci

Yes GC saved the space empire building genre. If it were JUST Moo3 the genre would be dead easily by now. Now Galciv is the only game besides space empires (which i personally dont like) in this genre. Keep up the good work. And you are 100% right, the fans for MOO wanted a MOO2 with better graphics and some tweaks. MOO2 in itself was an almost perfect game, just needing some minor tweaks to make a 3rd game and modernizations would of made a great MOO3. Quicksilver sucks and Alan Emer

Just loaded up Beta 3 and the mouse acts really weird in game. When I dont move the mouse the pointer dissapears and when i actually do move it the pointer blinks. This normally wouldn't be a problem however it wont let me scroll to the right or up when in the game map which is really annoying. I tried closing all programs/windows and it still causes this problem. Specs: Athlon 3000+ 1gig ram GF 6800 GT 256mb Also I

WoW involved too much camping and reliability on getting in a GOOD group for me. This missions in it sucked hardcore.... Collection missions where you had to collect large amount of drops in player-infested areas.... Boss-kill missions where you had to fight through hoards of elite mobs that will spawn on top of you as soon as you get to the boss.... Fetch missions...... That is what all the game involved for me. Sure I knew PVP would be fun but I couldn't get pact the

IMO scaling is not important because i take the game as being a "tactical display" However have a realistic amount of Binary Star systems would be not only realistic but would not harm the development much at all. IMO that should definately be added.

got the problem as well, latest Nvidia drivers 1gig ram 3000+ AMD VIA chipset motherboard (Soyo Dragon 2 KT-880)

ewww Matrox Parhelia, bad card lol.

Actually i wouldn't mind to have a release in ancient egyption.

You could do this on the game Alpha Centauri and since this game is looking simular to it gameplay wise i dont see why not, lol. Sersiouly SMAC = best game ever and this looks to omgwtfpwn it.

For anyone who believes firmly in ANY projected software release date - I've got some oceanfront property in Arizona that I'd like to sell you. Well actually now that you mention it, EB games site and many other sites for the game Rome Total War for a year and a half before the date was announced had right release date on their sites. There was

only problem with these types of games in multiplayer is that they take sooo long if you want a good game that you need REALLY dedicated people. I've been playing these types of games online since Master of Orion 2 on TEN and have yet to get in ONE that lasted. Only thing we did was beat MOO2 on hotseat once but that isn't online. This game is supposed to be really moddable so im sure you can make custom AI players. The AI is supposed to be adaptabl

Malfador sold old and turn the battles into a RTS. I have no interest in this game because of that, that was the first step that Quicksilver did to put out the blasphemy that is Master of Orion 3. I really wish people would stop stepping into the RTS bandwagon, its an oversatured genre and putting it into a turn based space strategy game is NOT what the fans of the genre want to see. SE4 was a great game, we played it on lan at my house often. I also liked its single player and

Plus distance from a capital has NOTHING to do with corruption in reality especially in a modern/futuristic society.

p design is also a lot like SMAC as well...
