Please make a fun ground combat system
I dont think it needs to be overly complex but at least let us watch our invading forces assault them
a very BASIC ground combat system in master of orion 2 is much better than no ground combat system
cool animations like drop ships with storm troopers busting out or tanks busting out to invade the planet
if you wondering why it would be good to invade rather than simply bombard the planet
here are a few reasons
1. to simply subdue the race and steal there technology and after you take what you wanted you could slow;y kill them off while moving in your race of people (I love this way)
2. to help with diplomacy after you take over the planet you could treat the people very good so they would like you and possibly get them to fight for you
(idea--> building large statue that stands for peace between the two races )
-- which this idea you could go as far as after you completely dominate the planet instead of taking control of the planet yourself you could let the A.I. continue to control the planet and then they would be basically an ally now who fight under your flag
THIS GAME WILL AMAZING ! I HAVE A TON OF FRIENDS WHO LIKE THIS TYPE OF GAME AND HOPE YOU COME THREW WITH FLYING COLORS !
3. Bombarding the planet MIGHT DESTROY ARTIFACTS THAT YOU WANT TO CAPTURE
-- so if there is an alien artifact on a planet you might not want to bombard it because doing so might destroy the artifact you want to capture. Which could give you some great technology like advanced weapons or armor etc etc etc
4. Similar to number 3 may be you need to rescue a princess LOL or save a hero that will join your forces you don't want to bombard the planet and risk killing him
Please Dev. Reply I think these reasons for ground combat are good reasons as well as countless other ones if not for the sheer pleasure in watching your army overwhelm theirs
Asking for a Dev to reply only 1 day after you post the idea is a bit rude don't you think?
Also In GalCiv II there was already a basic ground combat system. You could opt for orbital bombardment, but only as a part of your invasion strategy. And that did have the effect of destroying a lot of the structures on the planet. Information Warfare has always been my favourite choice.
It wasn't even 2 hours, let alone a day.
Also, it's not even 5am where Stardock is located. You really can't expect an answer at this time of the day.
Anyhow, the devs already gave a comment regarding ground combat in the Community Q&A:
oh well thanks for the info
well I have looked at this game for awhile and just bought it so i was excited think
-you should relax with the calling people rude thing may be save that kind of talk for someone who is actually being a problem
How about using it to prevent people from being a problem in the first place? I called it rude because it was rude, or if not that then a false sense of entitlement, take your pick.
I really liked Battleoids of MOO2. Early GC2 planetary invasion system was also good, even if basic. I'm torn. Half of me wants it to be more or less basic and giving us modification options and part of me wants to see the possible visual treats in a version they have in mind.
I am a rude person. Starbound_Dust YOU ARE A RUDE BRIT. Machiavellianism is not rude but curious. Sorry but someone has to stop you from becoming a problem.

You don't want to see what me being rude really looks like.
YOU THINK A SHITY PM IS SOMETHING I, I WOULD FEAR!!!!!!
LET THE COMMUNITY KNOW HOW MUCH OF A COWARD YOU ARE!!!!!! SAY SOMETHING ELSE I WANT TO PUT LOL AFTER YOUR QUOTE SO HURRY I HAVE NO PATIENCE!!!!!
Is your keyboard broke Joe? Caps lock is always on.
and the OP is going to be stupid, I just know it.
We will announce our plans for planetary invasions when the time comes... in the meanwhile, we can do without the fighting.
No Kryo I posted the messages so you all could see the cowardice of cyber bullys. He should be BANNED for his misconduct against me and the kid!!! And if he dose something again I will have to say something... I...don't...want to..SAY!!! Because I hate cowards, and people how THREATEN ME, WITH 4GRADER WORDS!!!!
I think we need something to laugh at, so I went and found an old classic: Who's on first. Enjoy.
Dude, is your keyboard broken again? Whenever you hit exclamation mark theres like five of them. Also, Machiavellianism was rude. Demanding a reply, even if it wasnt an hour in a half later, is rude, especially at 4 AM. Starbound didnt say anything rude imo. Pms dont show cowardice, they show courtesy by not clogging real threads with a fight, and in no way was that a threat. Also, leard "4grader" grammar please your post hurts me.
You don't like his ideas, we get it.
Careful Joe, Kryo is a StarDock employee and the moderator of this forum.

HE SAID PLEASE. HE DID NOT DEMAND ANYTHING!!!!!
READ IT AGAIN!!!! HE WAS JUST ANXIOUS AND FORGOT TO ADD THE LAST PART. YOU ARE ALL NEED TO SEE A DOCTOR EVERY 6 MONTHS!!!!!!
NOW I HAVE TO ENJOY THE REST OF MY DAY GOOD BYE AND I CANT WAIT FOR THIS GAME I'M HAPPIER THAN A 4GRADER AT RECESS!!!!!!!!!!!
Also posting PM messages is rude as well. Sometimes the best way to deal with a rude person is to ignore him.
Yeah...go back to 1st grade....writing in all caps with four exclamation marks really shows your sophistication. And seriously, you are all need? what is English, your 4th language?
And yes, just because you say please doesn't mean its not a demand. If he wasn't demanding something, he wouldnt have made a second post.
