Incorrect sentence structure in opening screen shot.

from GalCiv3 Forums

In the very first window that appears when starting GC3, the one with the copyright statements at the bottom says;

"Galactic Civilizations is a trademarks of ...."

Which should read "Galactic Civilizations is a trademark of ..."

and

"This Alpha may contains .... "

should read "This Alpha may contain ..."

Also, this sentence may present itself better as two sentences.

I have stopped myself from posting this very same thing.  It strikes me every time I open the game.  Then I tell myself it is just an alpha and perhaps it sets the proper work-in-progress atmosphere.  I certainly don't think it is worth a half second of dev time fixing. 

 

However, I thank you for bringing it up.  It soothes my grammar self to have others notice.  Now I can just let it be.

It is likely the second of these lines will be changed for the Beta, but the copyright line is essential for the entire life of the game.

 

And I almost didn't post it either.

Yes, it was noticed by others but I figured I would wait until the next release to see if it was still there before posting about it as they have to have noticed this themselves. Unless, of course, DARCA was their proof reader... (J/K DARCA! ;) )

i always noticed the "contains" line but assumed it was intended to be humorous
