Cant believe I forgot about this aspect and whats essentially happened is that I was doing well and all of a sidden 2 spies are on my building but I cant see the research which would enable me to nullify those spies, any ideas?
Hi I bought gciv2 plus all expansions a while ago however I havent got around to playing them until now, Im a newbie myself so I would be interested in knowing how you ended up setting things up when you get a good way of doing it
I have said alot on related issues in another thread but this highlights the extreme one sidedness of it all and I applaud stardock and you should have these people who ae trying to muddy your name for damages since in my view the only reason they are doing this is because of your good user orientated common sense practices you are blowing these one sided corporate orientated view points wide open. Its also very reasonable to permit people to play the game on all their home machines a

Yeah I agree lets punish all the people at the top for their scams, lets fine overpeer, lets hammer the biggest scammers, the people who do most damage(Not a single person on the street - sorry I cant believe anyone would remortely show any suppot for such a farse of a case, were partaking in destruction of internet freedom and I think unless the majoritys mentality on the web changes its going to get worse, I refer to a much more constrcutive post just after my own one, good points), if

I will have more faith when I see Judges, lawyers, MPs and Jurors sons and daughters getting done for doing it. Sorry about the double post that was unintentional but I will leave this thread be now :) Just feel strongly on this whole sorry state of affairs

yep agree, the message Im recieving is they are holes backed by the misguided politically correct(If this keeps going the vast vast majoity are going to lose out bad), dont get me started on this stuff, I spend thousands on software and hardware that I otherwise wouldnt have spent had it not been for the free nature of the web when I started using it, furthermore I realise that artists need to be paid but they should also realis
Hi, I have been on and off these forums a while now, I bought all of the gal civ games knowing that as an avid gamer if I wasnt keen on it initially that I would be as I got better, to explain to you I am not very good at strategy games/TBS that side of things, I am usually more into rpgs. Anyway I have also had imperium galactica 2 sitting there, now I did a lame thing I put it on easy, I am doing the Solarian campaign and it is maybe a bit to easy , on easy :) however Its let me und
Hey thanks :) sorry my bad I have enemy terrotiry quake wars as well! Im actually checking out divine divinity and it looks very good but I cant find a digital download to buy, as mentioned I just bought the latest gciv expansion but I have been going nuts again buying more lol just recently bought disciples II + all expansions + jagged alliance 2 with an expansion(I think I will like this, havent really played yet), just bought ethorlords 2 and I am about to buy 1 more game then I will probably
Thanks for the honesty people, I seriously hope when warhammer comes out I manage to find people like yourselfs who arent bought over with hype, the way I see it you cant judge a game until you play it and where MMOS are concerned you cant judge them until you have played them for 3 months or more after which its to late, you have already been ripped. I seriously dont like MMOS anymore, I perhaps disagreeably to many see the vast majority as a bit of a scam(Low standard sub par gameplay
Hi , yeah I actually bought the gciv 2 expansion after all :) , what stopped me playing gciv 2 was the dreadlords apocalypse mission but I finally managed to complete the dreadlords campaign yesterday :)) I hadnt really played much Gciv because of the dreadlords but now that I have persevered I have made it to the dark avator expansion :), I dunno thus far I feel dark avator plays better, but its probably because I am finally starting to really like gciv 2 , thats why even in the initial instanc
Sins Forums
I agree It has got varied strategies and requires more thought than rush rush, I am actually playing gciv 2 atm since I just bought but where sins is concerned theres a HUGE patch in the works so I am waiting until much of the balance changes are made. TEC by most of the articles writers I have read have said at this point TEC is the most balanced so the game will be better when EVERY faction is tweaked. Windex whats your suggestion as to irms? (The guy is saying he likes the game no n
I am more or less in the same boat as the OP :) . My situation is I bought gciv 2 gold, played the dreadlords campaign, got owned repeatadly and gave up. I then months later decide I will buy TOTA so Im in a situation where I have yet to play DA and TOTA for the first time. Heres the thing I hate how I buy games and finish them fast as hell so I decided I would go through all the gciv 2 installments from oldest to newest. Suffice to say I just finished the dreadlords campaign(On normal
dam no edit button but just to finally say thanks for the kind comments regarding my collection of games :). Im a bit fanatical when it comes to games though I guess, I actually would rather sit and play a good game than watch a film much of the time. Its funny because the more I am playing gciv and sins the more they grow on me? (crazy considering I havent touvhed the expansions yet :), I think I am going to lose alot of hours of life lol )
I did and I happen to agree with all the points made in the thread, the great response is really appreciated because before my next purchase I will refer back to this. I am sure I mentioned it but before I bought the latest gciv 2 expansion I had gciv 2 gold and have yet to play dark avator. Anway I have them all now but am playing the dreadlords campaign and doing them in order, I will be honest I only played gciv 2 once before and wasnt sure about it but yesterday on the dreadlords ca
As a newbie myself I find this interesting, I did think factories were just planet wide but its good to now know. I always assumed research stations were global though is this the case ? I know it may sound dumb but just trying to make sure Im not missing something fundamental regarding research I also assumed worse ecco when a planet hardly has anyone on it. (Once again not meaning to come across dumb its just Im currently looking for holes in my game so I can finally get past the apoc

Even if someone could send me a save game or profile file(not sure how it works) just so I can load it to see what custom ships the person has built , this would also help me decide what technology I should be researching. Edit: I'm guessing the Apoca question had been asked many times then :). I just made the best of a couple of google results I found and pieced together a strategy from a non campaign faq on gciv 2 (Was still decent info though) . Just in case anyone in future
I have yet to play a strat where at some point in a multiplayer game a player doesnt spam units to some degree, how can you have epic battles with small amounts of units , it would be crap? I am the first to admit there are issues with the game but at the same time we dont want to go down the road where people need a masters degree to play the thing or have way to much complexity for counters, all that is going to do is make the game inaccessible for the silent majority. I have no doubt the devs

Silphius where did you learn all that stuff?? nice :) , Im actual trying to get a response from someone knowlegable in my DL Apocalypse thread but no joy yet. The reason I am here though is just to say Im going to copy all that text you have written! I have only read some of it but to my understanding I can create heaps of small hulled ships with no upkeep penalty at all? Also is it possible to make constructors on small hulls? its just thats what I may aim for in the campaign Im on (ap
No edit , just to say I did put a thread up but knowone has got back yet(Did see another 2 threaads but they didnt really cover specifics regarding research order and other stuff in the thread ) Anyway enjoy the game :) I am enjoying it but being new I really need to improve alot.
Do you know you can band ships into fleets? Im thinking you do but just wanting to check. If you stack a batch of ships exactly on top of each other , you then click a ship, next in the bottom center of the screen you should see all your ships as small icons, click all the ships(Highlight) you want in a fleet then click create fleet just to the right of that. You may well already know this though :) Im very new myself and if you get past the campaign apocalypse in the dreadlords campaig
[quote]A version 1.041 hotfix will be released this coming week that addresses the various legitimate desync and crash issues people have found since v1.04. After that, we'll be working on releasing a beta of v1.1 which will be optional for people. The final release of v1.1 will come sometime later (after we're happy it's solid) since it includes a ton of stuff. [/quote] Cant ask for more than that people :) . When it comes out beta I will be installing as well and will he
pengtzu I like to think longterm, and have massive enjoyable battles. I dont usually like traditional RTS games as I feel with sometimes limited amounts of build orders its all about the speed of the first few clicks which can determine how they game will go. I play sins though and I love it, it players much slower and in my view it is a good thing because wars are wars not 5 min afairs for the vast majority of the time. Try the demo like suggested but I will be honest with you I had to
[quote]Were gamers were suppose to be a little crazy.[/quote] I guess Im in good company then :) . Yeah I think the modding tools need a fair bit off work as well. I suppose on the positive side at least this is nothing like space force rogue universe forums, over there a patch took like 6 months and it ended up the patch was uber small and didnt even fix much of it. At least we know its getting worked on , Im spoiled at the momment :) , Im playing gciv 2 for the first time st

Ok I managed to complete the mission but really worried about the apocalypse mission now as the one I just did well I basically avoided the dreadlord ships all together. I ended up comming to the conclusion that my more advanced ships werent worth it, even my cutom ones so I started churning out defenders, I got 2 fleets worth with 8 in each and just sat them near seth, I started building a transport and researching stellar marines, heres the thing I had always kept a ship near my closest planet
I just started another thread on this , I did a search in site and it wasnt until I googled a bit this thread came up, Im just curious what the optimum research path is for this mission also what numbers of certain types of buildings do you all build on the first 2 planets because I am struggling with this one. I actually have all gciv expansions but I havent played them because I dont want to skip any of my purchases campaigns .
