As for screams, i give you the definition The Program for future reference Maybe so but your "dictionary" doesn't seem to include slang. You seem to assume that no one in here knows slang, or maybe it is you who doesn't. Regardless it is a trivial point but before browbeating about plain english, realize that slang takes the place of alot of our
There is a rule. And when I say please, I do it to be nice. I really mean 'do it or you'll be impaled with giant drinking straws wielded by a horde of rabid ewoks'. That was just too much Kryo... LMAO (since I guess I really can't say it huh? Can I, please oh please, CAN I!!) <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Laugh.gif" border=
Thanks Kryo, I know it wasn't a game breaking question but it was something I was curious about. I now understand all in the cosmos...
In my case, it would be "colonize". I tend to play ethical alignment. Technically, you could say that the Christian Crusades were "ethical" so... just look at it that way. Your conscience will thank you for it later! As far as the military thing, make
Moons and rings are already used for research and production bonuses. Check the planet info I spoke of this somewhere else... but sometimes it doesn't seem to work this way. Has anyone else had any issues?
Green turn button is not the same as a disappearing turn button. Hey Kryo, a little OT but with regards to this turn button problem... had it happen maybe once or twice where it wouldn't "turn green" as people say. Think it was v1.2. Anyhoo, never had a problem since (knocking on wood)then. But can you explain, in layman's terms, why it is that s
Good point Evil Muppet, good point. Micromanaging doesn't bother me too much and I usually just tend to use the colony manager screen for pretty much everything. Yes, there are times that I may miss a planet or two, but I try not to sweat it. Probably helps that I never use any other government than the default "dictatorship". I know what I am missing out on by keeping an archaic government in place, but it helps with morale and since I usually go for a conquest victory, anyone who gets out of l
What about aerosol cheese? Is it flammable? Never tried to flambe cheese whiz but let's find out... Bill Nye... where are you when we need you. Submit it to Mythbusters, they'll try anything.
Perhaps if natural population growth was slowed down, farms and food production could be used to make your population grow faster. So are you proposing that the devs edit how the population is handled in-game? As far as worthless, yes a planet with a high population is susceptible to morale issues, but that is why I already make these my default colon
Just conquer the planets in their system and then hand them over to them. From there on out just abuse the crap out of them like I try to do. Quite amusing and definitely adds some depth to the game in trying what you "can" and "can't" get away with.
Hey, you guys who are rating the cheese scale... you forgot Cheetos... they are the "CHEEZIEST" according to Chester Cheetah. Now you may cry foul and say that Cheetos are not cheese, but I think that if you want to compare mac and cheese to Velveeta then Cheetos should be the uber trump cheese!!!!! And as far as the crime stuff... who cares? Remember, "it's not easy being cheezy"
Good idea with all the "dead horse issue" posts Kryo. Although I am in favor of the idea, as you said, the "man" said NO! But since this topic seems to be a severe dead horse, as opposed to a less severe dead horse, why even post it? Everyone at Stardock has made their position clear on this, whereas the multiplayer issue at least seems to have a little life left in it if I read the post correctly.
If it is to be an expansion, please make it a seperate one with no additional single player content I agree with Magnumaniac. Multiplayer doesn't mean much to me with regards to this game, whether I have an internet connection or not(hee hee). Judging from the posts there are alot of people who do want it however. The idea of a seperate expansio
For those planets that have moons as eye candy This may be a little off the post but do you mean inhabited planets with a moon or uninhabited planets? I always thought that moons around a planet gave a production boost and rings around a planet gave a research boost. Is this so?
I didn't mean to "tattle" on you and Jasamcarl to Cari. But speaking someones name can indeed cause them to appear Not sure what you mean there Mumblefratz, I didn't realize that I was in "trouble" for anything. No harm no foul as I always say. Besides, I elected you for Prez so you could do no wrong in my eyes! I just have to learn to pick and c
I don't necessarily agree with this. There are more than enough opponents in the game to keep it challenging without reviving "dead" races. It's a good idea in theory, as far as the "revolt" issue, but otherwise, not needed.
Good sentiment. Too bad the attempt only lasted a few hours. Well I did say I would "attempt" to employ it, but sometimes trying something new can be challenging!!
You can already change the portraits. Sorry, wasn't being clear. I meant in the game itself, kind of like the Sims, would there be a character editor that would allow you to generate a race portrait, not import one in from another source.
Bought the game in June I believe and been playing it ever since. Despite my "issues" I think it's a great game and pretty much what I was looking for in a TBS sci-fi game. I can't begin to count the hours of playtime, but it is alot. Totally neglected Civ4, which I purchased after GC2, and the Civ series was always my favorite. I do admit to breaking down and playing some Warhammer 40K in between GC2 sessions, just to get a little RTS playing in. GC2 addictive, hell yes. And with the expansion
Wow, that didn't take long. Wasn't all of this stuff supposed to be fixed with the release of the expansion? I'm really starting to get annoyed at these updates, at least as far as their frequency is concerned. Don't get me wrong, any improvements are always welcomed by me but another patch? Like I said, I know nothing about this patch and was led to believe the expansion
Kryo's the man, have I said that enough lately!!
Though I suppose it could be both... "user just died from exerting himself too much in the bathroom." Hate when that one happens! says it means "sniff"
As far as I can tell, once you use the smiley, your message will display what it is vs. an actual graphic, i.e. comes up congrat, this is lol, this is surprised, etc. Like I said, it shows what they are once you use one,
Some of the smartest things I've done on this forum, is to re-read my posts and in some cases delete them without submission. This can sometimes help avoid serious foot-in-mouth disease. Yes, yes, yes. This is a very good policy, one which I believe I shall attempt to employ more often! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Cool.gi
Are we going to be able to change how they visually appear or will there be pre set race portraits? And if we are able to change their appearance, will this also be true for our own race choice?
