Apparently feelings are something you're supposed to feel . Who'd have thunk it? I've always thought of emotions as something that colored my thoughts. Just something that adds a certain quality to what's going on inside my head. Apparently emotions are supposed to be something that you can actually feel in your body. I'm pretty sure I do have emotions, so
I sent out this email to some girls from West Chester I met in Maryland last week. I took the time to type out the story, so I thought I'd include it here on the off chance that someone actually reads this some day.: Hey, West Chester facebook buddies, Last weekend when we were hanging out in your room at Alpha Beta Matt mentioned Karen's Walk,
Now I'm just a dumb college kid who doesn't have any money to speak of, but it's 2am, I'm poking around joeuser, and I feel talkative. So much of the money that the government takes in is flat-out wasted that if they cut out all the crap they could Pork Barrel spending. You know what that is. And there's that stadium that they're planning to build in New York City. It infuriates me that they would ever consider spending public money on that. And
So. This is me, posting a blog entry. Mostly at this point I'm looking at how this site works. It's not as snazzy as Jeff's Blog , but it's free and I already had an account here. I'm shy about talking about myself. Putting myself out there. I don't tell anyone personal details. I keep my distance. That's the way I'
A BC bonus is boring. It's just a number in the corner that's already pretty high to begin with. Better to have a tangible result from the battles, that even makes it easier to fight future battles against the same race. And, should you really be able to research Missiles purely from what your survey ship recovers from scrap? </
The more you think about all of this the less believable it is. The little squares on the map are called "parsecs". What kind of sensor technology can you imagine that would detect things several parsecs away in less than a month? Why can't you fly a ship through a square that's occupied by a neutral ship? The ship can't be taking up any significant portion of the space. If it was that big, it would be sucking up stars and planets. For that matter, why c
I found the page right here . It takes months for subspace communications to be received What is today (2178) a matter of debate is whether the Arceans sent us the plans to aid us or to conquer us -- their star gate plans had no mechanism to turn it off. But given
If you read the background to GC1 you will see that this is already the case. The owner of the stargate has to allow the other ships to travel through. Admitted the owner could be fooled into letting a surprise military fleet from a neutral or 'friend' through, but he would never allow and enemy to travel through. As
I object to the "not essential" part of your statement. Remaking redesigning my ships every game does not sound like fun to me. And there was a whole thread in the dev journals discussing how many accessories should be allowed on ship designs submited to the new Library, to allow lower end systems to load them, so I don't think there's much chance of this not getting in.
As this feature is already in the original GalCiv, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be in the sequel.
I wasn't going to make a post, but I just thought I'd say that I don't have anything to add either.
DirectX's error messages generally aren't very helpfull. When I first tried using the AP map editor with an outdated video card driver, the Microsoft-provided error message suggested I install the DirectX SDK (a 222MB download, BTW).
You can't.
Try [email protected] or [email protected]. Pretty much anyone with an email @stardock.com could point you in the right direction.
Alphas are for internal testing under the supervision of the developers. Betas are for users to test the program in the same environment where the finished application is going to be used.

wnload the beta as soon as it goes up. March 24th is a 24 hour period. The beta could come at any time, but don't bet on it being early.)
e, nothing less.
g to a player who was supposed to go before you, you wouldn't be able to move your ship until the other player had moved his. Probably not easy to implement, but it's the way that makes the most sense in this kind of game IMO.
ted techs, buildings, ships, etc.

I'm willing to give ship design a try. I trust Stardock to make sure micromanagment doesn't get out of hand. Some standard set of ships will probably do for most situations, anyway.
If you're looking for a way to give yourself an advantage over the AI, all you have to do is turn the difficulty level down.
Rabits, for instance.
