You can read  HERE  the rationale as to why it wasn't part of the base game.  This thread has been created so that people can discuss multiplayer in a single place. Multiplayer will not be added as part of some update (or "patch"). There has been discussion of having it be in some future "Ultimate" edition of the game (i.e. in the future) once the Stardock multiplayer libraries for  Society  are completed.

Here's how it *should* work (to the best of my understanding imparted from CodeCritter!). If you notice any inconsistencies in the game versus what is described here, please report them along with screenshots and as many details as you can provide.    First off, the changes:   1) Weapons now target individually. If a ship has multiple weapons and destroys its target with some weapons still unused, tho...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">https://forums.galciv2.com/139395</guid><link>https://forums.galciv2.com/139395</link><pubDate>Fri, 13 Jul 2012 6:16:57 PM -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2012-07-13T18:16:57-04:00</pubDateParsed><title>DA Combat System</title></item><item><author>kryo</author><comments>https://forums.galciv2.com/133868</comments><description><![CDATA[This thread is for the discussion of Carriers/Orbital Bombardment.  Galactic Civilizations II does not have the concept of carrriers (units that carry other units). There are no plans to add this into the game because Stardock does not feel it adds anything to the game other than additional complexity.&nbsp;   Orbital bombardment as a general feature has not been added explicitly because of the way it affects end-game gameplay in other games -- players going on a "genocide run".  That is t...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">https://forums.galciv2.com/133868</guid><link>https://forums.galciv2.com/133868</link><pubDate>Sat, 30 Apr 2011 1:14:36 AM -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2011-04-30T01:14:36-04:00</pubDateParsed><title>Official Carriers/Orbital Bombardment Thread</title></item><item><author>kryo</author><comments>https://forums.galciv2.com/133866</comments><description><![CDATA[This thread is for the discussion of Tactical Combat in a future sequel.  Tactical Combat will not be implemented in GC2 at any point due to the massive changes and very extensive AI work needed to include such a feature to our satisfaction. This is Stardock's official position on the subject as of this posting.  Feel free to use this thread to discuss how you'd like tactical combat to be implemented in some future sequel.
