Setting the background black in a SPACE game is not generally a good idea, its best to select the off" black" color it gives on the pallet

Ship engine "vapor" in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I've been wondering this for a while but really didn't bother posting about it as it didn't bother me. My problem is that the engine "flame" from ships in combat doesn't work properly. It will either not show up at all or, in some models, will show up in the exact center of the basic template or in some other wierd location. Just been wondering if this is a bug. I remember a patch added an option to turn off engine flame, why turn it off when it doesn't work in the first place? If i

AI ship building strategy in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Since I play as evil usually i always find that i'm building the exact same ships. The AI's that I fight always use shield but various weapons, but usually beam weapons, so I find myself ALWAYS using missiles and sometimes mass drivers. I forgot which but one of the two that i use they make minimal armor for. They usually stack their ships with so much shields that i do almost no or completely no damage to them and always lack on everything else. Does each AI have a certain strategy on how to bu

Reply to Galactic Civilizations II cracks the top 10 in sales in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

GOOD, i'm glad to see a game like this selling well. I'm tired of these flavor of the week EA clone games they non stop release that is killing pc gaming. I want to see more flight sims, more tactical strategy, more turn based games, and shit from "dead genres" like that. I want a new x-com to be done well, for example. I dont want to play Battlefield 12 or endless cloning MMORPG 25. The one thing I want that I know wont be made? A new Mechwarrior game.... because Wizkidz killed batt

Reply to GalCiv II: May Roadmap in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

I actually hope they add multiplayer in one of these future patchs. I used to be against it as a waste of time but I now have been getting many people into this game that have been wanting to do MP for a while. These people i can actually trust to do an extended long game as well. I just thought i'd mention that. To sum it up: MULTIPLAYER

Reply to GalCiv2 AI vs other games' AI in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Well since the only space turn based strategy games (i REFUSE to use the Quicksilver MOO3 made up term 4x) in recent years have been Space Empires 4 and Master of Orion 3 I think this game has incredibly smart AI. Compaired to those games its near humanlike. If I compaire it though to Civilization and Alpha Centauri and those games i'd say the AI is simular to SMAC if not slightly worse but FAR better than any Civ game. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=

Best default race? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

What do you think the best race to play as is without chaning anything about them? So far i've played as the Terrans, Yor, and Drengin as default and so far enjoy the yor the most. Their miniaturization ability is useful and their other abilities add in with that. The terrans were good as well due to their bonuses being simular to what I take when I make a custom race. Which is your favorite and why?
