The game can be bought in stores..so there must be a way to fool the server side. There must be a way to manually install patches, etc for people who play on a machine not connected to the internet.

You can only download patches with a valid serial number, just like with Gal Civ I. You don't need a valid serial number to install the patches. I think the lack of release is because there isn't much honour in releasing an unprotected game...

I don't think honour has anything to do with it. They're likely waiting for the retail version of the game, which is pretty elusive at the moment.

THe first one was coded well. Fine enough. But the think is I have seen the update list for this one. I didn't really read up on it, but it seemed pretty long and at least 2 or 3 were serious. Another 2 were useful for lower end systems.
Meh, but people seem to be having fun, bugs or no.
Oh and are you geting the one with SDC files? I am a bit iffy on that issue. Chances are someone paid for it and is redistributing it. I don't know if it will. And I wonder about the patching issuse as the 1.0D version needs are different patch. Oh well. I hope it has the bonus pack at least. The good thing about is that I can start playing before the game is actually done.

lol. Harsh.
In any case the torrent is very complete. IF you checked out the GalCiv2 foru, you would see that.

Woot! The guy sending out the digital download version thru Bittorrent is almost done.. Soon it will appear (within 24 hours) in the binary newsgroups and spread like aids in Africa ;P Look for it to be released by somebody later today.
