New to Metaverse - some questions

search failed

By Posted November 5, 2009 04:01:39

I have played GC2 several times on my friends' PC, but I only recently got a method of paying for a copy (Ultimate) of the game myself. I was thinking of starting by playing a metaverse game. I have a few questions:

1. After I log into the metaverse and start a game, do I need to stay connected to it while playing?

2. What about loading a previously saved game? I guess that it will require me to connect to the metaverse to load that game.

3. Obviously I will need to be connected when submiting the score, but are there any other connectivity quirks I should know about.

4. I have never been beaten below the tough level, though I haven't played much. But I am also reluctant to switch to a higher difficulty than that because I fear that it will become like a chore. Perhaps mixing up the difficulty of the opponents or using strange races will help - I have played mostly with the Terrans. So, which race will be the most fun?

My games usually take a lot of time, so I want to have an interesting game.

1. No, but you will need to able to connect to post a game. You will be prompted when you complete a game.

2. No. You only need to be connect to start a new game, or post a completed game.

3. Nope.

4. I play Terrans almost excusively. Make money, not war!!! I trade for everything, even military and planets. Someone else might be able to give you some direction on a different race.

Enjoy.

Thanks for your reply

 

I think I will go with the Terrans for my first metaverse game. After that, there can be experiments!
