Tactical wars

June 16, 2006 9:31:19 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
i agree with everyone and the polls show that tactical battles are interesting and fun and it also furthers the game. but i do not like the fact that some are pulling away from traditional standards of games. i am all for empire building and for a game that is not just hack and slash but i would love them to make it lan capable, online is fine but i have three networked computers and love playing against or with wife and family, as we all know or at least me is that online is fun but even if you have a stable provider dsl or dial-up or which ever you choose online can be a hassle every now and then. i just wish that the poll would reveal this as i would really like to see that in this game and not gc3 i mean you can play full campaign mode in civ4 and thats a good game to. just for the record this is a good game and i love what they have done.

"Everyone?" Those primarily wanting tactical battles make up a little less than half of the poll results. Granted it's a lot higher than multiplayer, but meh...

Anyway, I think it would be cool if we had a more expanded metaverse campaign as an intermediate sort of multiplayer. Your performance in a game would contribute to progressive stats for your race, and we could have events. (Like "X Race is really kicking it out of Y race this month, so Y race will need a couple major victories to avoid losing Z award that they currently hold." or "The Humans are dominating, so all other races get an additional bonus when beating humans in MetaCampaign games this week.") Of course, such a system might be more trouble than it's worth to implement. If nothing else, you'd need another set of protected settings files to avoid people from doing cheesy things like playing in a galaxy full of evil races while a good race is the weekly target.

I like all of the options, but multiplayer is my primary wish. would rock to play multiplayer in a B5 mod and dish it out Earth vs. Minbari and Narn vs. Centauri or all vs all

to be more precise: it blows multiplayer out of the water. Even heroes is beating multiplayer. so meh...

Personally i'd settle for email play as I prefer to mull over what i want to do, and still have a full time life to consider aswell.

Hooray for tactical combat!

I'm betting tactical combat would also be the feature people least want. Either that or MP.

Personally, if TC was ever implemented- I'd want it to be fairly simple in nature, and non-exploitable. That's too much to ask for though.

Huh? In this case you're a male?

Thats probably one of the more bad sexist joke I've read in the last few weeks. And I've got a lot of friends who tend to be on the macho side...

oh well, some people never advanced from the medieval...

Actually, he might have a point. If they ran a poll with "What feature would you LEAST like added?" I don't think I'd be the only one to answer "Tactical Combat."

This is what happens when you have a poll without being able to rank your choices.

My guess is a lot of diplomacy and political voters would take multiplayer as a second choice?

My guess is that Diplomatic voters would mostly go Political, and vice-versa. (My first was Diplomacy, my second would be Politics, my third would be ship design, after that I'm not sure. Tactical Combat is last, though.)

The entire No Tak Kombat Klub could all vote for tactical combat as the feature they'd least like added and it wouldn't make a difference. They'd still be a small minority.

God no.

You're a complete fool. Really, you are. Nice KKK reference too. Did you spend long thinking that up?

Galciv3 will add tactical combat.


Last time I checked it was a "probably". Sadly this poll doesn't bode well for us NTKK people. Damnation.

MP would rank far higher than TC in my opinion. The skill in this game is thought. Not reaction time and tactical control of ships. This is not Counter strike, where mice skills and cheatzz0rs are teh ub3rest of 411 j00 nubzz0rs.
If MP got added, it could be great. Like a good game of chess, challenging an opponent. Tactical combat could ruin that, because even if it was balanced morons who can't do strategy for crap could still win.

But sod that, I want to say "GIT ORF MOI LAAAAAAAND!" and will continue to say so in that ridiculous tone of post until diplomacy wins, and I SHOVE MOI PITCHFORK UP DOSE TCERS ARRRRRRRSES!

You have been warned *loads shotgun*

Hey Megadork.. er... Miccropoop.. um.. Masterbate.. Oh hell, I can't spell or pronounce your name. I think I'll just call you Maxi-Pad. You want me to tell you where you can stick that *loaded shotgun*?

At least you've finally started to get down off your high-horse and admit to yourself that Galciv3 will "probably" have tactical combat. Maybe this is your first step towards not living the rest of your life with your head stuck up your ass [instead of that shotgun].

I never said GC3 wouldn't for definate. I said gc2 wouldn't for definate. And hey, I was right!

I will live doing what I want, when I want, how I want, and so far everything has always gone my way. A little prick like you is hardly going to change that. And frankly, that glorious range of opening insults was terrible. I suggest you go away, practice, and come back when you're big enough.

Or, you know, just flame me on IRC. I get bored of debates where I have to wait for the person to think up some witty response or another. Either way, you really don't deserve my time or attention. Be off with you, peasant.

Maxi-Pad: My you are full of yourself aren't you? Or is that shotgun stuck up your ass making you feel full? I feel bad that you suffer from chronic boredom. But, hey, it's Saturday night. You could always do what you do every other Saturday night for excitement: run to mommy and suckle at her breast.

A) Well, you aren't exactly dancing the night away, if you continue to respond here. Seriously, keep it up. Hypocrisy looks great on you.

It's 4 am here, in the land where time is set to (+0). I'm awake doing some work.

So, you went to a "ya mum" joke? Sheesh. I get a better conversation from a dead dog.

And yet you keep coming back. What happened? Fall off your perch? I suppose it is difficult to stay balanced on that pedestal of yours with that shotgun stuck up your ass. Really, you should spend more time out of your ivory tower down here with us " common folk ". That elitist drivel you were spouting an hour ago was just weak. We all expect more from you than just "Be off with you, peasant ". Come on Maxi-Pad, give us something more!

hey i am with both sides for tactical wars and multiplayer. i play alot of turnbased games and tactical battle is a portion of any strategy type game i would like to see, for instance i also play rome total war which is a very good game but they dont have a true multiplayer system all you are able to do is have tactical battles you choose what troops you want then you fight. i am not a person that likes to play a game that is only a few hours long, i want a game that you can keep playing. i mean i like galactic civilizations but more does need to be done. because all i see is that you are able to do is be a diplomat or a scientist let all the strategies work in the game such as everyone would like to see tactical combat. multiplayer and tactical combat go hand in hand with each other in any game i think. hack and slash well go buy a console for that.
