I really do hope that the improvements for the planetary invasions go beyond a new invasion screen. For me they are the weakest element of gameplay and yet I would have thought worthy of a major revamp.

I thought that I remembered reading quite a while ago that Brad was looking at making provision within the game for it to be able to make use of multi-core CPU's in the AI's decision making..? Unless that as gone as far as... Force AI to use max CPU ..as a setting within the games menu...? Is that being developed any further...?

If you can run GC II, esp DA, then you should have no trouble at all in running this game. It is a pity that even though it was in development for such a long time that it hasn't been as 'polished' as it could have been, a bit of a rough diamond really. At least it seems that so much can be modified and, more importantly, there are many people willing to do it. Whilst the game will not suit everyone for those that have fond memories of X-Com it will not let you down -

Well I have been playing the game now for a few days and it is simply phenomenally good, even more so with the one particular mod that I am using... Mod Link There are warts with the game, tell me one where there aren't, and my first impressions were not that good. However continuing with the campaign I am amazed how 'just one more turn' type of compelling nature it ha

Thanks very much for the update, most appreciated I think that it is really cunning calling the 1.6 betas 1.59.05 (etc) - that, I sure, will not confuse anyone It might have been useful if, within SDC, it could give an indication of the file size of what you are about to download, the Heightmap

It needs a new hamster, or the existing hamster needs a hip replacement, or the batteries are due for changing.

Unfortunately, this is correct--Dark Avatar alone does not have a retail box (no such thing was ever made). If you want a retail box, you will need to get GC2Gold. I have no problem about getting the Gold version, if I had been aware of..... The download version not being an ISO but instead only a SD type of install The DA version, which I'm waiting for delivery, being a plain whi

I have been disappointed by it not being sold at retail in the UK, but I do understand the reason why. I paid for the downloaded version of DA expecting to be able to download a ISO and burn it to CD, I even sent support a question regarding this. I must have got the wrong understanding from their response as all I can do is to download and then archive the DA expansion as a SD type of image - thus needing SD to install it again. I had hoped to have the ISO type of ima

Having updated, via SD, my GCII I find that when I look at the title screen of DA it will show 1.6 beta 1. The Debug file will then read...
