any secret to keeping them alive? They almost always get nullified in one turn
How does spying work in TA ? I'm familiar with DA where you put the spies in up to 4 slors to get intell on a race but I cant find that screen in TA
I'm having a similar problem. Bought the hard copy of the ultimate edition published by Kalypso and Impulse wont recognize the serial. Kalypso got back to me quick saying the serial was from Impulse and to contact them. I'm 4 days into waiting for a response...
Waaaay back in the day aournd the original release there were several simple events, moral choices and UP votes made by players. I no longer can find any on the megaverse. What happened to them ?
RE: Kantok #232 who am i(we) ? I'm a customer who is supposedly covered by the Gamers bill of rights - at least in regard to STardock products. I'm not say Shafer has to do anything. He's obviously already made his choice to remain silent. Stardock has made their choice too by hiring him with zero transparency on the matter so the next time Frogboy posts a rant about how "for the people" Stardock at least will all know its just PR spin we cant rely on since their values will f
I've already explained my motivation and I dont need your permission to have an opinion about the hiring of Jon Shafer. If you want to discuss the points I brought up about this hiring damaging the GBoR thats fine but stop trying to distract from the topic.
For the record..I dont own CiV or Elemental..I'm a Galciver who thinks industry reform and the GBoR is important. Shafer is toxic assets because his ACTIONS (since apparently the Stardock plan is to withhold his words from us) showed when GBoR values are on the line he will choose self interest over the consumer. Stardock cant hire a guy like that and still sell the GBoR to the industry with any sort of credibility. Its not about ciV or Shafer -its about the message this hiring sends
Look..I know you wanna be fanbios and circle the wagons around the guy ..but we live in a world (or at least we use to) where your work is graded. The man was giving one of the most successful franchise ever and the community largely views what he produced as a failure. And while he was working in it, whether he made the decisions personally or not, the decisions made violated the GBoR. He earned the title " the guy that screwed up CiV" and hes going to wear that the rest of his life..no amou
When did the gaming industry start following Kindergarten rules ? We should embrace him because he "tried" hard ? Did the "best" he could ? You dont know that. Jon has been silent and sheltered by Frogboy and Stardock. The story is a bit misty atm. Wheres the transparency Brad ? Regardless of what you thought of CiV Shafer stayed on while decisions were made that violate the GBoA. He didnt quit, he didnt speak out and he did what was good for his career not what was good for the consu
[quote who="Nesrie" reply="196" id="2867892"] I am curious. How would you have him "answer" for what happened? I mean i think this is just a symptom of the industry in general trying to talk circles around bad ideas, but really other than reassure people that he's not trying to dumb down Stardock products and be willing to do Q & A's, that's the most he can do.[/quote] I would have him publicly come forward and distance himself from the marketing choices that 2k/firaxis
Why are people so willing to give every businessman banker and crappy politician a pass these days? He was at the head of the ship that crash..whether its directly his fault or not doesn't matter...the man must answer for what happened on his watch.
How can you believe anything this company says when with one hand they offer the gamers bill of rights while with the other hiring, sheltering and embracing someone who would be its worst violator.
Well...actually your right consumers arnt entitled to much these days. Stardock, I thought, was working to change that with its gamers bill of rights. Whats the point of having rules of civil behavior if the very sponsor hires a man who's last product was a poster child for violation of said rules. Mr. Shafer might have a very reasonable yarn to tell but he needs stop hiding behind frogboy and come forward to face the music. If Stardocks shelters this guy then the Gamers Bill of Right
I'd like to hear Jon Shafers Mea culpa before I trust any product that he is going to be involved with. He's done nothing but hide behind his business and legal obligations thus far. Which I'm sure is in his best interest for his career and whatnot. But how is that in any way good for the consumer ? Those of us who can get over the vitriol will admit Civ 5 had some definite bright spots and the guy has talent. But you hired a guy who's recent behavior doesnt walk "consumer first" talk that st
anyone help me out here ?
When setting up a random map ...does the abundance of "anomalies" effect the number of minable space resources ?
So this has something to do with how many ships and starbase you can have....where do I find the total amount possible ? Can someone explain this to me
Where can I find information on the custom maps included in the game?
There are sound effects but no music..and yes I checked all the setting...and yes there was music prior to 5
I always aim for uni translators then the research bonus and then weapons
i want to play the alterians...but they dont start with enough tech..so I play the bugs and augment their race abilities... why do some races start with a whole lot more tech than others ?
Sup..erm..I dont want to be a mnech but I've played 4c and 4d and I havnt reached say 10-20 turns without a crash...I'm waiting for the zip files to reach 20 in number before I send them... ..still think the ship design is too complicated for the average player...
Then what you are saying is that minor races should appear in star systems already oocupied by major races ? Just later in the game ehe nthey throw off the slavery/oppressinnn thing ?
