Reply to meta claims i cheated on game in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

meta claims i cheated on game in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

when i most certainly did not. i dont even use casual mods. if its of any relevance, the computer actually cheated against me. when i declared war on them, out of the the blue hundreds if not thousands of corvettes appeared. the entire map was literally covered in yellow. when i tried setting ships on auto attack, they said nothing was in attack range (bs). so yea, just wondering if that matter could be cleared up.

Reply to Colonizing first planet trick in Colonies GalCiv2 Forums

true, but around fifty percent of the time u dont get a bonus decision. so in the time it takes you tobuild antoher colony ship, thats time you have lost to develop this hypothetical "10" planet which will be much more useful (eg can hold more industry = more colony ships)

Reply to Yor are Overpowered! in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

the problem with Yor is not miniturization, its the fact they have too many bonus's, minturazation alone is VERY powerfull its the equiverlent of enhanced minturization right from the start, couple that with 100% loyalty, all there other bonus's well, i dunno about you, but i would never let another

Don't Do This!! in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

i've been playing good lately, and of course, we all know that good races never attack other good races, so what do i do? i make a game with the torians, altarians, iconians, and drath, all good and neutrals. well thats great, they're all friends with me. bad news, they're all friends with each other. so halfway thorugh the game, they're all allied together, so i decalre war on one, i declare war on all =/ however, one thing saved. in GC1 e

Reply to The Snathi should be a major race... in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

u noe what, rather than making several out there races, why not make custom races playable by the AI? the only thing that would be different is that you would have to select their morality like u did in GC1.

Reply to late game economy in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

were you building structures or ships? that increases ur planetary maintainence and ship maintainence costs. in my experience, conquering a race or two gives me pop and tax boost that evens things out or it could be that ur trade was fulctuating a bit.

Reply to Civilization capital in Ideas Stardock Forums

i'm just saying that at the default tax level (i noe it was 33 for GCI i cant remember for GC2) the standard colony can grow to its full potential population size and stay at 100% morale while the civ capital reaches about 9 bil and the morale is down to 50% ore sumthin like that. i just wish that at default leels of everything, the civ capitla could operate like the standard colony, except better, obviously

Civilization capital in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

civilization capitals suck. it gves enuff food for 15 billion, but not enuff morale boosties, like the standard colony. so i have to build 4 or 5 entertainment centers, on a word thats only 10 or 15, thats half or a third of my squares blocked out! i just don't get it

What the fudge is this poop??? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

early game, i've just researched mini balls(they're the least space conserving) and i have ion drive. i slap an ion drive and a miniballs onto a small hull, all told costs 70 whatever that number means. i then later research mass driver IV, 4dmg pts to the minibals paltry 1 pt, so i upgrade the design, now costing 135 i think, but then the computer wants to charge me 80,000+ to upgrade 23 ships that are all stationed on planets!! WTH? i noe that a lot
