I really enjoy 4x games. These are the best games in my opinion.

That Alpha Centauri thing is sweet. I haven't played th3e game. What exactly happened to earth?
This IS interesting. Can someone inform me of this alpha centauri thing?
[quote] What makes a good 4x game? Maybe it's the 5thX - experience [/quote] Yes but if you have just gotten the game, how can you have experience
These are interesting ideas. I like to be able to mod stuff. But it needs modders like GC1 had(map maker,scenario maker, campaign maker). These are good for a game. That isn't all I think a 4x game needs. I am just going to spread it out.
I would like everyones opinion. What do you think makes a good 4x game?
Please help me! I need help on mission 5. Do you have any idea on how to beat it?
I finally beat the mission I was having trouble with! Thanks for the advice, CaptainYar. Do you guys have any advice for the next mission?
Thats a major event in GC1, for the league of non-aligned worlds. Join the alliance of new players. See the alliance of new posters for details.
I say that speed should be a factor in ship battles. What is the point of speed if you can't use it in a battle?
Yes the engine would be great.
I would like a 3-D battlefield but I have 1 addition. Depending on where you battle, there should be space junk or stuff like that. It would add more strategy. I agree with the fleet defense system
For the telepathy tech tree, You are forgetting mind control. It could be a new invasion tactic. To solve the tactical combat I recommend this, You can either control your ships or let the computer fight it out.
Pretty cool stuff, djtool. I say that starbases should be able to make ships, like stardock in the star trek series.
I want a campaign where you can be different civs in it, like axis and allies. The weapons would save you the trouble of researching all 3 weapons and defense types. For the fleets, who doesn't want free ships without demanding them.
These are very interesting suggestions. I would also like a new weapons type that is a combination of all three weapons types and there would be the same for defenses. It is for people who can't choose. I also recommend that you should be able to combine fleets with your allies.
This is a wish list of everything I want in GC3. I encourage others to post your own wish lists. I want to see a dread lords face and I want ships that are like aircraft carriers.
My alliance is on the board. This shows that we are strong and not messing around. So join me and bring our empire to glory!
All these new editors. It's like a dream come true. :D
If you like it so much, why not join my empire. We welcome new members.
Join me new players. I have created the Alliance of new players. Here everyone will be treated fairly. Together we can rise to glory and show those that treat us badly the power of new players. Huzzah!
No, This one is where the terrans are spying on you and you have to kick their butts. My problem is that my planets have low population and the terrans take them over with hardly a fight, or the tholans declare war on me and I die anyway.
This is embarrasing for a gamer like me. I have beat the dread lord campaign and am an expert(in my opinion) gc1 gamer. But I can't get past mission 2 of the dark avatar campaign, on CAKEWALK. Please help me.
