Longest game?
Ok, I know a lot of you don't play single player, but for those of you who do, how long is the longest game you've ever played in terms of turns?
My longest is 484 turns.
I played with 19 AI's all allied against me, high bonus, high difficulty. I quit once I knew I had won, which was when I had a couple of sphereworlds built and could beat the AI in 50 on 50 ship battles with only one loss to my fleet.
So what's your record?

Re: Longest game?
I don't keep track anymore, but it wasn't anywhere close to yours. I don't remember ever breaking 300.

Re: Longest game?
If you want a long game, play Proportions mod.  |

Re: Longest game?
Yeah; playing a slighlty modded Version of Proportions, set to team mode (human vs AI) with 19 AI's, I've broken 1000 turns more than once. And that wasn't even to play it to completion - that was merely playing until I had captured 2 homeworlds.

Re: Longest game?
I tried Proportions but didn't really like it. I thought it slowed things down a little too much. But yeah, I can definitly see how it could create some VERY long games.

Re: Longest game?
I think my longest game was around 400 turns. 255-system map, 19 A.I.'s.  I didn't finish that game. |
