Multipliers on score that you see in Civilization games. Based on both difficulty and time taken. Badly needed imo!

Very good review. I find their grading system a little "Fuzzy" and unclear however. how does an A- translate? 90%? 80%? argh.
My god, those ships are simply sublime. Some people - you included - really know how to go to town with the ship builder. More pictures! Edit: Those are Drengin ships btw; You can see that they're the same hulls as Frogboys "Avenger" class from one of his game writeups =D
Lazer IV appears bigger but it's actual size cost is lower. Plasma weapons are the first 2 damage beam weapons
Nobody misses the elerians. They used to mind control my colonies repeatedly. damn blue elf like things.
Has anyone noticed that when you gift ships to major races, most recently for me, the Drengin, they're immediately off to fight, but when you gift to minor races, they just sit beside your colonies and don't move an inch? I've experienced this on every occasion I've tried it recently. Is it a bug, or just an issue at normal difficulty and below?
see, it wasn't a joke Definately a broken Universal translator The trick to that mission is to make sure your ships always counter the AI's in weapons and defence. And build "Oribtal Fleet Managers" in all your planets to allow your defensive ships to fight
You get it after you research Singularity - one of them, im not sure if its 4. And yes, the cost is *immense*, but if you have the facilities, it's a potential game winner - until the god damned AI adapts. Which it always does
The movie turned a huge profit tbh; I'd say that fox will eventually schedule a 2nd season, it's got too big of a following to ignore.
I love random events
Thats an awesome box art too.
Whoops; Double posted! but that lets me expand on something I forgot to mention; When you obselete your up-to-date ship from the shipyard, it *will* dissapear from the quickbuild list, its the previous already upgraded versions that do not.
It's a replicable bug; Several of us mentioned it in an earlier thread. I've seen it a half dozen times. The thing is, they stay in the build list AFTER you obselete the class as well, which is more irritating.
And the cheddar frogboy? What about the cheddar!
And cheddar. All users should immediately tribute 5ounces of quality mild cheddar to my user account. Barring that, some great game writeups would be ace
Thalans, not the Yor. The Yor get a logistics bonus I think.
Argh for the love of god, Normal text size, grammar and spelling. I don't even know what you were trying to say! And I dont want to risk re-reading it.
mine was also showing only human, and it may still be, while I've only played as Thalan and Custom
Only find it when I use specials when I invade (like mini-soldiers, mass-drivers) as they destroy planetary improvements. In traditional warfare, I rarely ever find even 1 square undeveloped
Thats prefered RichardLake not minimum. Even a geforce2 will run this game, although not very well. And to be fair, the 5200 is an updated GeForce4 MX440 which is a modified GeForce2.
replace the default mp3's would be one way but obviously not a perfect solution
Also had this, was quite amusing
Not necessarily, but possible. I think they got the memory leaks well locked down in beta
Just wondering, how are scores calculated in the metaverse, and what multipliers and whatnot are applied due to difficulty levels. There seem to be no bonuses for playing at higher difficulty levels at the moment; I personally suck, so the majority of my games are on beginner/normal levels, but several players are playing at Masochistic/cripping etc and getting outscored by people on beginner! Needs fixed imo <img src="smiles/Tongue.gif" bo
Except GC2 is a deep, involving experience and Guildwars, although an interesting concept and incredibly pretty, lacks depth and is just another hack n slash grinder if you try to follow the story. The PVP is fun, and has a lot of strategy, true, but it doesn't compare to World of Warcraft - and that hurts to admit, as I hate WoW! GC2 > all. (except Moo2, but only due to nostalgia)
