Reply to Anyone remember the numbers for CE edition versus Regular edition? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Thanks SaberLazer! I thought people hardly noticed this thread now with all the hoopla about the game. I have the same problem as you with the sku just thought I'd take another look at the ones written earlier on. I will be at the EB store tomorrow afternoon and see what I see. I did go to the EB website and it says "shipping friday the 24th". Not to promissing...

Your the customer after all. It doesn't matter who's at fault. It's OUR responsibility to make sure you are happy with the purchase regardless of where you got it. Man if the team at 2K were to have done this with civilization 4 I would not have returned it with the french techtree, missprinted CD's, poorly written code and less than ze

Reply to Collector's Edition Special Content in GalCiv II News Stardock Forums

I specifically ordered for the tech tree and everything else so I expect to get them. I'm sure there's a way to make it happen if they cannot get it correct the first time. We will find out how intelligent EB salepeople are when it comes to ordering the version I "told" him to order(we discussed it at length so I bet he did it right)...

On site "Watch" does not work at all. in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Below is the exact text I get when ever I attempt to watch a thrread, any thread. Does anyone else have this problem? I am using Cable modem to download and the site is currently having slowness problems because of the games release, but before the release and probably until site admins fix it it will continue. "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size

Reply to To Site Managers: in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Yes I did notice that but not everyone posting puts things into the correct sub so you can find things mostly in the General GalCivII sub instead of being seperated I just wondered if more seperation by the site ops could be done in some way to make it easier for people to find the type of content they are looking to read without sorting through all the other umbiguous posts. They also have so many stickies that it is crowding the normal post out, at least on my screen of 1024 x 768 it does perh

To Site Managers: in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

How about putting "ALL" posts for game play and machine "Issues" into a single SEPERATE section so the rest of us can stop weeding through the "Help! my .....doesn't work" Threads to read the other threads we want? I look at the list to the left of the screen and just bout everything is about fixing things but this will only apply to some of the people and once fixed might go away completely, at present just fills things up with problems for other peoples machines or game play that I do not hav

Reply to Available IN STORES... in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

I went to EB today to order they told me that officially the game ships on the 21st and arrives between 10am and 3pm on the 22nd. I don't think anyone will get it any quicker in stores than that as EB is quite up to date about getting the titles when they say they will. Good Luck to us ALL!

Reply to Anyone have a Icon of CGII? in Off-Topic Stardock Forums

I guess it would be just as nice if the site admins here could just make the site load a icon when ever a person comes to the site. That would take care of any infringment stuff...

Anyone have a Icon of CGII? in Off-Topic GalCiv2 Forums

Hi I would like to download an icon to use with my link for this game site on the "Links Bar". Does anyone have one for the game or something that looks pretty cool? Is there a way to make an icon with small pictures of spaceships and such?

Reply to Save game locations in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Also something not mentioned yet here is placing "ALL" savegame files in one place like the My Dorcuments folder will make making backups of your savegames very easy compared to copying all the different folders to CD for backup. Of course this is estimating that you have MANY games installed.
