Reply to GalCiv III is in for some though competition in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="1" id="3443150"] The planet economy is more sophisticated, we got rid of the ambiguous morale system and replaced it with adjacency bonuses.[/quote] YES. Most of the time I have to mod the tech trees to give me morale bonuses so that I can finish a game! It will be nice to actually be able to have that 32b population planet and not have it have a 15% approval rate. That doesn't even make sense to me. If I can provide enough food these people should

Recommended Requirements for GCIII in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I am wondering if anywhere there was posted what the recommended pc requirements are for Galactic Civilizations III? I know my pc can handle it, but I was wondering specifics like ram sizes. I was thinking of buying some more (I have 8gb but was thinking 12) but I was just wondering if more might be needed with having the game 64bit only. I don't know if any of you are computer experts, but I was also wondering whether I should get 2x2gb or 1x4gb? I have two open slots on my mobo

Reply to Starbases in Galactic Civilizations III in GalCiv III Dev Journals GalCiv3 Forums

I hadn't even thought of improving the starbases, they were more of an afterthought in GC2. If they are going to be as much of a game changer as in Sins then there's got to be some balancing. Only so many until more logistics researched? If ships can dock, then those starbases are going to be quite powerful. It would be cool if some starbases could build ships, maybe small/tiny ships. Perhaps starbases have fighter/bomber squads for extra defense? [quote who="Goudeau42" reply=

[quote quoting="post"] If Ender’s Game was, ironically, an RTS.[/quote] Excellent book (meh movie). Even better series. It would be incredible if you could play a game the way the command/control was used there. I personally can't wait for "third phase" RTS's.

GalCiv2 for ARM in Galactic Civilizations Series Stardock Forums

I recently bought a windows rt tablet and was thinking it would be awesome if I could play Galactic Civilizations 2 or even 1 on my tablet! But then I was like, oh yeah, I have rt. I really like this tablet and the full version of windows was a lot more money and the hardware wasn't as good. What would be really cool was if someone with the knowledge recompiled the game for ARM architecture (or if someone came up with a good hack). Is there any chance that Stardock would think of releasin

Reply to Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion v1.82 BETA Change Log in Change Logs Sins Forums

Just want to get my opinion on here.. I thought Hard was too hard, until just recently. I don't think I had the beta yet and I whipped the Hard AI. Granted I had about 15 more planets than he had, I just sniped their capital planets and all the planets it took to get straight there. It was by no means a "send my ships here and let them do their thing" game, but it did not require me to retreat my fleets and rebuild. I just kept building smaller fleets and sending them in groups to

If you use the Vasari this isn't as bad because you can jump all over the place and you are super mobile. Play with anyone else and you're a goner. Everyone keeps saying Hard is meant to be "HARD". Well it is. It just is HARDER than it was. I'd think it would be ok that Hard was that "HARD" if there were only three tier

The AI is too hard, AGAIN! in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

So I complained about this before, I mean before sins had this new update. I think that you guys made the "hard" AI much harder again. I don't know if you just put the income modifier back in, but I'm finding it much harder to form relationships and to beat "hard" AI. I've tried playing against just one hard AI, in a large (multi) map, but it still is much harder than it was. The AI somehow destroys every other race in their system, then conquers the other one and starts bombardin

[quote who="SteelFin" reply="60" id="3290653"]So one thing I think could be cool, and this is kind of stealing the idea from fallen enchantress, is making the environment have more character i.e. wild lands.

They need some more variety, more than just different planet types. I am taking about giant nebulas that eng

Main thing: Campaign. This would be awesome. I'm torn between the two ideas here: show the alien race chasing the Vasari or not. If you do show the race, then I think it should be pretty epic. If you don't show the race, I d
