Reply to Galactic Civilizations: The case for no multiplayer in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

One small thing to be remembered. This game lacks multiplayer and due to this fact many 4x players preferring multpilayer did not buy it. They don't post on these forums but still they are prospective buyers.

Reply to Old Graphics Card from 2003??? in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I used to have this gfx card in my old Fujitsu-Siemens laptop and AFAIR ATI Radeon IGP 320M was slower than ancient NVidia GeForce 2MX dated from the 2001. Don't expect miracles it was very slow card even in 2003.

This happens to me as well. I play GC2 v1.11 on my two laptops: Thinkpad T43 / PM1.83Ghz / 1024MB RAM / Mobility Radeon X300 64MB VRAM / XP Pro Acer TM4651LMi / PM1.6Ghz / 1280MB RAM / Nvidia GF6600 Go 64MB VRAM / XP Pro At least second one runs newer games quite smoothly, e.g. I played CivIV on it with maximum graphic details.

My strong support for HotSeat/LAN/PBEM options to be added as an expansion. I will put my money where my mouth is. GC2 has potential to be played-for-years legend-game as MoO2 has been if it has MP expansion pack available.

Unable to register retail version in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Hi, I am unable to register a retail version of GalCiv. It has been just bought in EBGames in Finland and it's labelled as Limited Edition. The information on game box says that serial allows to downlad "exclusive Collectors Edition content" but actually I am unable to register it at all neither via galciv2.com nor via Stardock Central. When I am trying to enter my serial into Collectors Edition field on registration page it just reports som

Reply to Civilization IV due out this week! in GalCiv II News Stardock Forums

Civ4 is really great game. It has multiplayer which is also very nice. There are so many people playing it over internet already. Stardockers, please observe how "unpopular" is multiplayer in turn based games and earn some conclusions.

As Frogboy posted in official thread on mainpage, the Galactic Civilizations 2 won't have multiplayer option :(. *Maybe* there will be expansion pack adding this feature.

I've already reported it.

Reply to Trade/Leasing question in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

No i am not making any purchases. Acutally this number in spending->tribute was really weird - 429496294, but it changed to 0 after some turns without making anything.

Reply to Trade/Leasing question in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

That's only my impression. What about case when "level" of relations between my race and aliens changes do worse one? Does it have any influence on payments? What incomes are included in tributes? I didn't demand any tribute (mean money in exchange for nothing) from my competitors but economic stats show significant money comming from tributes. Also according to "SPENDING" section i am paying huge tribute but actually nothing is being paid by me. Are those stats reliable?

Trade/Leasing question in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I am selling and leasing goods to alien civs pretty often and noticed that sometime actual incomes does not fit to negotiated values (eg. 50bc per 20 months should give 1000 bc but actually gives less). I think it happens in case of leasing. What happens when the civ which bought any good from me runs out of money? Are they always paying negotiated values?

[quote]I am pretty sure that the max population is 100,000[/quote] Is this the same for all planets (some of them are smaller and some of them are bigger)?

What about the maximum capacity of planets? Is there any limit of maximum population per planet? How to check it?

Reply to Game crashing on selecting military project to build. in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I dropped localized version and installed GC in English and updated to 1.21. Now it seems to work fine. I am pretty sure that crash happened when trying to build any ship on the planet with no space on the orbit. I don't have *.err file but i have *.cra file from Smart Exception. It contains the following lines: Stardock SmartException Logging Information ------------------------------------------- OS Version : Windows XP Video Card : IGP 320M Application Exception

The two planets causing problems belong to the same star system - they are Nestor I and Nestor II. I conquered them from Torians and then Torians gave up. Marcin

Game crashing on selecting military project to build. in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Hi, I am encountering weird crashes when trying to start any military project(from planet screen) on some planets - currently there are two of twelve in my empire causing crashes. The crash is pretty reproducible (happens everytime) and game just exits to OS. Does anybody encountered similar issue? Maybe anyone knows any workaround? I have tried to assign any military project from planet list view but nothing changes. Game does not crash but no project is started. I have Polish-localize

How to use inteligence in GalCiv? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Hi, I have assigned some money for inteligence and sabotage in some of the enemy empires. After some time i am getting messages that the level of enemy infiltration becomes low, medium, high, etc and my spies reached the very high levels of enemy's government members. How is this usable for me? Can i directly do anything using my spies or they just lower some parameters of enemy empire (diplomacy, morale, etc)? cheers Marcin
