Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
Let's see. Only 6 races, ok 5,000 stars, but GalCivII-Twilight of the Arnor also has a new galaxy size above "gigantic" (18x18=324) now, Immense size should be some more than 324 stars, and there are 12 races plus one customized race...
EDIT: Immense means 484 sectors (22x22). |

Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
Then again, GalCiv combat always majorly sucked balls.

And its tech tree is more a bush compared to SE - do you still have to research from scratch in every scenario of the new GC campaigns?
And you can't have big fleets of ships, only street gangs.
And you have a 3D ship designer that almost forces you to labour on each ship design/upgrade to avoid making them appear like a dog's breakfast.
And you have the online activation...
But to be fair, GC did come in a nice shiny box.

Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
Would you guys like a little cheese with your 'whine'? I'll talk to Narf and see what he can do!  |

Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
One thing i absoutly liked about GalCiv is the planet surface divided into grids with specials.

Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
Wasn't that MOO3, not GalCiv? Or did they do something different with planets in GalCiv2?

Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
One thing I really like about cheese is you can eat it.

MOO3 had "regions" on its planets, which is a reasonable idea, but there was no 'grid' or other display of the planet surface. Not even in ground combat. Ground combat in MOO3 was like SE IV ground combat. A mathematical model only. Apparently GalCiv is different. (I haven't played GalCiv, just heard about it.) It would be kinda nice for SE VI to have "regions" on planets so you could have a planet shared by several races and/or even several empires. Hey, if the armistice gets signed while a planet is only partly conquered, that's the way things are left -- until the next outbreak of war.  |
