I also played Civ 6 due to the Epic giveaway, and since I heard so many players saying that it was worse than 5 (which I like, but not as much as 4), I was prepared to dislike the game, but I was pleasantly surprised. No more global happiness is a big, BIG improvement to me, since that's the...

The CD version of the base game had the tech quotes recorded in five different languages, and the files are placed during installation depending of which language you choose for the installer. Changing the language in-game is just for text, not audio. The Steam version only comes with the...

Wow, this was very fun. I only managed to get Normal after 4 or 5 tries, and there's no way I'll ever archieve Hard or Nightmare. I'm not much of a micro guy, I just try to play as fast as possible and letting the governor take care of the tiles, but I must admit, this motivated me to actually...

Hello. This is not much of a request, I just need some directions: I want to change the size of the message box that appears on screen. You know, the one that is just under the green tech bar on the top center, that says things like "a religion has been funded in a far away land", "while...

Woah, I thought this mod was dead. Glad to hear you people are making nice progress. I'm just passing by and saying good luck with the project, it looks badass :D

I found out what was wrong, I messed up while scaling some values. So yay!, I have a 3000 turns speed, thanks :)

It wasn't an scenario, I started a regular game. :sad:

Hello, I have some little requests, I hope you people don't mind. One thing I tried to do (but failed miserably) was to make the top-screen message box wider. The same with the tech bar (see screenshot below). Does anyone know how to do it? (I play at a 1366x768 resolution by the way)...

I insist about watching a video. By watching one you might notice mistakes that you didn't thought were mistakes in the first place. For example, worker use, city placement, combat, what a city should build, what to research, etc.

So I played it again, this time trying a cultural victory. I decided to stay with my initial 3 cities for the whole game, just for adding more challenge. At 5 turns left to win, I got declared by 4 other civs at the same time and lost my capital, despite having a decent defense force. ... I...

3007: You hate probability, and whenever you are told that you have over 95% chance of succeeding at something, you still believe it will go horribly wrong.

I did got the Great Lighthouse. Also my capital was a pretty badass GP farm (lots of food, G.Library + two aditional scientists with the normal library + Partenon + National Epic). The Great Lighthouse was useless at the beginning, when I had only three cities. But when I opened borders with...

No doubt it was hard on Marathon, but at faster speeds the game becomes slightly more difficult (IMO) because the window of oportunity is smaller. For example, I'm at war with someone and I have rifles and he don't. On marathon I could have steamrolled him easily. On normal, after I captured a...

I'm playing it. I had to change the speed to Normal, sorry! I don't have the patience for Marathon. I'm at turn 300. The game is surprisingly difficult for Noble, even more with a faster speed. :eek:

My only problem with Civ 5 is how slow it plays. That's it. I'm not talking about waiting between turns (I bet Civ 4 took some time as well back in the day, with older hardware), but about how fast you can give orders. In Civ 4, using the Ctrl, Shift and Alt key can speed up lots of things, and...
