It gave me some trouble while I was home and yesterday, my brother in law told me over the phone that it won’t boot and is instead just beeping during the POST screen. My hard drive, or possibly even my motherboard seems to be dying.
Sadly, once this issue on my laptop was fixed, another issue was discovered. You could specialize in buildings, but each city needs to have a good amount of every resource to support its formers and defenses, so tile specialization seems out of the question. I tried using specialized cities this time, but I don’t think it’s a good strategy when it comes to tile improvements. Other than that, not much of note happened. I played as the Morganites and managed to eliminate the Progenitors early. My next game was taking place in the expansion, Alpha Centauri: Alien Crossfire, which I haven’t played at all up until now, but I didn’t get a chance to complete that one, due to lack of time. This is is where my second game was when I had to end my session. It ended up being the only one, but I have no regrets. Thanks to the fact that I finally owned it, as well as the fact that one of the YouTube channels I’ve been following, quill18, who has been doing a Let’s Play of the game as of recently, I decided that this amazing game will be the first one for me to play during the holidays. I couldn’t play any modern games on it, but it was now finally good enough for the classics. This basically reduced the power of the GPU by over a half, but as I hoped, it also eliminated the malfunction. I extracted the bios from the GPU and then modified the speeds and voltages in various operation modes. If you tried to run a game on it, it would simply lock up and go black. I had my laptop, but it malfunctioned ages ago. The problem was, when I was back home for the weekend, I didn’t have a computer that was able to play games. You see, I started working a few months ago, which means I had to move to a nearby city and take my PC with me. The better question is, why did I finally have the time for it? I fixed my laptop! I actually bought it closer to the start of the holiday sales, but I didn’t get a chance to play it until a few days ago. Alpha Centauri is another game I decided to buy now that it’s discounted on GOG.com.
