This really isn't a big deal or anything but it might be nice to have our user comments posted to articals recorded in our "my posts" section just like posts to the forum. Also, with all the stickies in the forum the default view of the forum when one initially hits the forum tab on the side bar is almost exclusively stickies. Looks kinda funny to me.
What's up with the Altarian Republic in the data banks section? Both them and the Terran Alliance don't have links to back stories in the civilizations section although the Terran Alliance has a note attached stating that one is coming while the Altarian's do not. Just wondering if we can expect a nice back story for the Altarians too. I love the other civ back stories that are up already btw <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/s
I don't know if you're aware of it or not but Tycho over at Penny-Arcade.com has refrenced this game several times, including today (2/22), on site as something he's really looking forward to (that's actually how I even heard about the game). I wonder how much a PA game endorsement boosts a games sales. They've got a rediculous number of readers and seem to draw attention from alot of the significant publishers and developers so they've gotta be at least a bit influencal.
Ah, actually I'm the one who misunderstood. I just misread your post. That's pretty hilarious that my comment went up on the main page. Glad I could help before some one else figured that out and maliciously used that security hole though. I wish I had known what I was doing so I could have written something clever
Thanks for the quick update and the info. Deffinitly no hard feelings, I was just really looking for info. Not that it's a big deal but I think you misunderstood what i was saying about my comment by the way. I posted a comment to the news post announcing the galciv2 release. This comment stated that i was disapointed by the fact that none of the links in the news post lead to any content that is new (not bitter disapointed, more sad). I do
Why are the user comments for news posts on the main page of this website subject to review prior to going up? It seems rather silly to be censoring there and not in the forum when it too is available from the main page via the recent posts sidebar. I ask because I tried to post a comment to the latest news post announcing the release of GalCiv 2 and my post has never been put up. Incedently, my post basicaly amounted to me saying "there's n
Games have done it and made it work just fine. MOO2 is the first game to come to mind. Thanks for the answer though. Now to my last question: can anyone point me to a more rebust description of the race advantages and how they are implemented than what is in the manual? Specificaly I'm looking for level and point values for each advantage.
Nice, thanks for the answers. Is there a breakdown anywhere on what advantages have levels and what don't and the point costs for levels? Race creation is a favorite section of mine in these types of games. Also, can you take negatives in any of the advantage catagories to gain more points to spend elsewhere? So say a situation where you take a -5% in economics to get yourself an extra point to buy up your influence ability. I'm thinking thi
giving my question a bump....
I've been reading through the manual and have a question about race creation. In the manual it describes 20 or so race abilities that the user has 10 points to spend on. What I want to know is, are there levels to these bonuses or can you only buy each advantage once? What I mean by levels would be something like 1 point spent on "Economics" would net you a %5 bonus to your income while 2 points would net you %10.
