    Civ BE wont be that great of a game.

    SMAC is miles away from Civ2. Graphics improvement is undeniably nice but I mean the design - depth added to every faction, the overall feel built in by the music, quotes, sounds, the tech tree. Civ 2 was awesome, SMAC was epic and boy how much time I've spent playing them :D

    "Refresh every 20 turns"

    Keep dreaming mate, I have no illusions ;) Why spend money when modders will do stuff for free? That is, if you'll spend money to let them by releasing modding tools. I guess it's a Civ5 spin off so there is at least hope for that ^^

    Returning Civ IV Player -- Will I like BE?

    I'm a die hard Civ4 fan. Even so I'm willing to give Civ:BE a try because it's pretty much another expansion to Civ5 and one thing Firaxis was good at is releasing expansions - Warlords improved vanilla, Beyond the Sword Warlord etc. Same story with Civ5 or XCom. So basically I hope for a more...

    Just saw the coolest Strategy game feature!!!

    I've been an avid watcher of streams/YT recently and AI is not that terrible, I've certainly haven't seen anyone tackling highest difficulty AI with ease (on the contrary to Civ5 vanilla after release). The game is beautiful and although I've enjoyed ES for some time I'm thinking about buying...

    Firaxicon - why the hate for Canada?

    @OP (Breezin): Dude come on, I love Canada - you've had Benton Fraser! Mild humor aside (yes I'm a die hard fan of Due South series) I respect Canada much more that US, just because someone somewhere didn't act this way don't worry, in my mind (and many others) Canada rocks!

    What will you miss from Civ 5 the most?

    I won't miss anything, I'm a die hard Civ4 fan, Civ5 is only barely acceptable with latest expansion. At least there's no more Jon Shafer this time, here's one hoping that mighty geeks will serve Civ:BE some justice and it will be a good game, picking up what Civ5:BNW left off. P.S. Firaxis...

    Just saw the coolest Strategy game feature!!!

    Haven't had a single crash with ES despite that my system is quite dated. I guess I'm the lucky one...

    Just saw the coolest Strategy game feature!!!

    Yeah, been checking out Endless Legend for quite a while now but was put off by low difficulty cap (i.e. no hard/very hard game modes). But the game was finally officially released this week and according to patch notes there are 5-6 difficulty levels now. I'm watching EL Twitch/Youtube since...

    CivBE discount 20% @ GMG

    Easy, you check GMG blog (upper right corner on their website). 9I47I9-ZOM38L-ZGV9KW code definitely works, I've just used it and got the game for reasonable 22,50GBP instead of 49,99 EUR shown on Steam.

    Why I won't be buying Civ-BE (even though I have money to blow)

    snip - please do not talk of fanboys or ignore lists, it is against the forum rules and trolling. those were the days where 4 Horsemen of Apocalypse were defended as a valid and non-broken tactic... Where Engineer specialist was giving same amount of hammers as unemployed citizen ("hey nothing...

    Worker first!

    Never stole a worker, never will, same as never did the Four Horseman of Apocalypse rush back in the early days of Civ5. But I find it hard to go without Scout first, it annoys me to think that all those lovely goodie huts are being taken by the AI. So I compromise and tend to settle on hills...

    how to get rid of unwanted artifacts?

    Heh, I've got museums everywhere already filled up to the brim with useless artifacts. I want more great works of art for other bonuses but I can;t since all my slots are taken. The only workaround solution I can think of is to build a new city - then I can build culture buildings there and...

    how to get rid of unwanted artifacts?

    Hi, I admit I got a bit overzealous (first playthrough that got me so far) and I've excavated a hoard of artifacts that promptly filled all my slots. Now I want some theme bonuses but for that I need a free art slot. Is there any way to get rid of the numerous beads and swords I've got stuck...

    Turns more slow

    I concur, checking Quick Movement allowed me to play at comfortable speed, whereas before by mid 1500 the game was chugging.
