Frogboy.. I'm not bashing the game.. and if you read my first thread.. I said I admire Stardocks commitment to patching and addressing issues.. However, it doesn't excuse finding 100's of gaming issues.. which are bugs! These aren't compatability issues.. Let's get that straight.. 100's.. not a few.. You'll never be able to release a game for the PC that is 100% compatable.. I understand that.. That's not my point.. But Stardock, no matter

Hey Rhadman.. Quite an astute observation.. I am playing a game.. Good point.. an no.. I'm not saving lives.. However.. If you buy pay $40 for a filet mignon.. and it comes out well done when you ordered it rare.. Do you not complain? or are you just complacent.. and sit there and eat it.. Whether or not Stardock has the resources to put into testing the game, or for proper QA.. is not the customers problem, burden or responsib

Ok.. Alright.. Let's get some things straight.. A) I have played the game.. I'd say roughly about 15 hours thus far.. Granted that's not a hell of a lot.. but enough to warrant an opinion on the quality of the game.. B) I'm a gaming grognard.. My first pc game was back in the 80's.. Larry Bird vs. Dr. J.. on my Apple II C.. (God, remember that thing?) I've played Master of Orion 1, 2, and 3.. (3 sucked, by the way)..

Not for nothing, but this game is laden.. with bugs and problems spanning just about every aspect of the game.. For $40, I feel a bit cheated.. It was obviously rushed for release without a decent job done with beta testing.. I admire Stardock's commitment to updating and working on the bugs.. but it's a bunch of BS that they released it in the first place.. I mean c'mon.. How many bugs did curttasker's post turn up? 100's! That's ridiculous in this da

Reply to Major Memory Leaks in Bug Reports Stardock Forums

Hey Frogboy.. This bug also affects memory after you exit the game.. I've recieved the same message about running out of memory.. It made me wonder whether Stardock was associated with StarForce.. I'm hoping it isn't, as many others out there have experienced similar effects after StarForce was put on their system.. It doesn't make much sense that once Gal Civ ends.. the memory isn't wiped clean.. Any thoughts as to what might be lingering

Anyone else experiencing major lag.. which increases the longer you run the game.. From past experience, this usually means a big memory leak.. Any way to fix it?
