What's a Blog?

Like the title says, I'd like to open this thread as a place where all former, current and future GC2 players can check in and talk about whatever interests them.

Not to slight those still currently involved with the game but these forums are really just a shadow of what they used to be. To me they were my first introduction into what an online community actually could be. Back in the day a thread was lucky to stay on front page of the most recent 50 posts for more than 15 minutes. Nowadays a post can sit unanswered for many days and still be in the top 50 most recent posts. And that's *with* the inclusion of all the cross-posted forums from other Stardock sites. Imagine how slow things would be without all the Off-topic, Personal Computing and Impulse threads passing through.

But while I do want to catch up with all the fallen GC2 warriors of times gone by, I also realize that time waits for no man and what's gone is gone.

Still I believe that many of the old timers still occasionally lurk these forums looking for something long lost so hopefully this thread will give them a place to stop in and just say hi or to talk about whatever else they feel like.

And for those still playing the game, or those just starting to play the game, or even those that haven't yet started playing the game you can just think of yourselves as future former players and use this thread to put in your own 2 cents as well.

Wow.  A meeting of the old vets here.  Hi all!    

I've just gotten back into playing GalCiv2.  2 games down and a 3rd in progress.  It's a lot more fun now that we're not playing for score.  I missed the intricacies of the old game and am just relearning them.

I was a little late to GalCiv, but I've had it a long while.  Forgot my account info and too lazy to get it back, so new account .

This "old newbie" still checks in ~weekly.

Never bought TA, but would if they fixed it.

MarvinKosh and Tolmekian are both working on mods that address issues in Twilight by reforging the shards of the techtrees.  Its a hell of a mess in there, and some things are irrecoverable (like AIs using Terror stars, ha), but its getting to be alot better.  A lot of the issues appear to stem from wacky stuff in the XMLs.  I'm using Tolmekian's at the moment, and it feels better so far.

Another old-timer checking in.  Just played a couple quick YZWs last week, first games in a long time.

Hope everyone is healthy and happy!

 

And if anyone has some good recommendations for new space 4x games, lemme know

Woahhhhh, crushbone...very long time no see. good to see you still playing!


As for other 4X, iv'e been waiting for Sword of the Stars 2 to iron out it's bugs. there is a thread around here somewhere we we have discussed it's issues and the consensus was by around end of Feb, all the patchs should be out addressing it's launch issues. I'll pick up the game then.

OFC, there is the new SINS expansion on the way as well....
