Reply to Terraforming in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

The orbital terraformer greatly adds to the usefulness of planets since you don't have to build on each tile twice. One time being just to make it useful. You should notice that all tiles are green on every planet now. Colonize a PQ1 and see it turn into a PQ16 - 19. PQ0 stay zero no matter what you do. Only a random event can change it.

Reply to class 1 planets in Twilight of the Arnor GalCiv2 Forums

I'm still playing DA 1.80g, I get a few of them on a large map with occasional / abunndant settings. Maybe like 5 -10. Those are really great to get once you go neutral or get the orbital terraformer.

Reply to Kzinti Empire - offical empire thread in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

I did just start him. I had a second character that was never used. I changed its name and added the picture. So, he is brand new. I originally thought maybe i would have a character for doing ZYW's as to not mess with the rating of my original character. But i never got around to doing that. Good catch though with the date.

Reply to Does the AI ever change rersearching midway through? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Thanks for the info. I figured they wouldn't change. But i thinkits just an AI thing that once they choose a tech they can't or just don't change it. This was one of the reasons that Mumblefratz once said a slow tech speed will hurt the AI more than the player. When i realized that they were even touching that brack i made sure i always had the tech they were on. After each tech the would just off that branch. For instance, after Galactic Understanding the went fopr Starbase For

Reply to My last big disapointment in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

[quote]I guess its interesting to see that alot of games people like are also disliked by others. I do have a contender for biggest disappointment, E.T. for the Atari 2600. Download a 2600 emulator and the ROM image for this game and prepare to go INSANE as you get old E.T. out of those pits, again, again and again. And again. But I think its a true contender for top disappointment because of the expectations of not the players but the designers and publishers. [/quote] I liked ET. LO

Just for the sake of correcting this thread [e digicons];P[/e] . In the first episode this season the word was spray painted on the wall in a corridor... it was spelled FRACK.

Does the AI ever change rersearching midway through? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Just want to know if the AI will ever change the tech they are currently researching. Has anuone ever noticed the AI change before they have the tech? The Drath are a few weeks from a Tech victory. I can beat them to it very easily just by adjusting my slider, but i didn't want a tech victory, especially early in the game. I only left the option on just in case thiongs got real bad in the game and i needed a way out. So if i attack them, is there any chance they will change and start

Reply to New Spy Bug in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Oops, I was asking about Dark Avatar, where there are no passive spies. Basically I've never had an AI spy on me for more thana turn, until now. I have about 8 and I assumed it was the Krynn, since i was at war withthem and they are the spy race. However they surrendered to me but the spies are still there. I was just wondering if they are left over Krynn that no one told that their government is dead (when the direct deposit of their pay stops they'll figure somethings wrong)
