If you had taken a few minutes to investigate WHY the game has been continually pushed back for the past few months, you would know that it's because they've been trying to squash virtually EVERY game-stopping bug they find. From what I've read just glancing over the MOO3 forums, the single player mode has functioned pretty much perfectly for months, and they've spent all this time trying to fix late-game multiplayer problems. This personally annoys me, as I have no intentions of playing multiplayer, and could care less if the game crashes on turn 789 when the fleets of 8 different players numbering exactly 361 ships arrive in one system at the same time.

I will buy MOO3 when it comes out, in a couple weeks. I will buy GalCiv when it comes out, a few weeks after that.

I will finish the Grit Tech mod.. I will play more SE4.. I will find a new job.. I will make more reasonable resolutions..

Are there other strategy games that have something similar to PBW? Once you play humans AIs just aren't that fun.

And i tihnk GalCiv has a lot going for it, off course, you can say they've stolen ideas from SE4, but any game steals ideas from previous games, especially if they are good ideas
The strong point of GalCiv is it's AI, and the dedication from the developers. They already scheduled 1 year after the release, to work on updates and such, now you may think they're just releasing a glorified beta then, but imo, if it doesn't have any gamestopping bugs, and you get what it says on the box (*cough*CIV3 MP*cough*), then it's a full game. All the updates that will be added are bonusses.
Plus, the hardware requirements aren't that high, probably similar to SE4's reqs.

What is this GalCiv you're all talking about? I read PC Gamer, but I can't recall a game by that name. I hope the game reqs are similar to SE4, but in my experience, most games coming out now are appealing to all of those who want super duper graphics and 3d. I can live without all of that as long as the game is good and is bug free.

actually, it looks decent for a 1 player game. www.galciv.com

moderate graphics, fairly low system requirements. I think the beefier your computer is, the smarter the AI will play.

Well, VGA Planets was pretty good, Winplan was OK.
Havent tried VGA 4 yet.
But SE4 is more fun than VGA P and Winp.
