Haven't posted in a while, just trolling these before the game and this made me lol. :lol: Go Packers!

I started a game last night with the Inca and my immediate neighbor was Spain, I used three slingers and 2 warriors to rush her capital. The withdraw from melee is absolutely amazing early game. I didn't lose a single slinger. The UB for the inca though is a little lackluster, like some have...

I like the hexes, ranged combat, 1UPT, naval bombardment. Everything else is a stepback. Put those 4 things in civ 4 and I'd be very happy and would still be playing civ 5. As it is now I'm waiting for a patch, but more likely waiting for an expansion. Vanilla civ 4 had my interest for only...

Well if it's actually trying to win and it sees my pitiful little country putting together a spaceship in slow motion it should do one of a few things. It should either build it's own spaceship faster, use its huge goldpile to buy a diplomatic victory, or invade me assuming it was going for a...

I've logged well over a hundred games in civ 4. The only good thing about civ 5 is the 1upt and actual ranged attacks, to bad the AI is so abysmal that all you have to do is wait for the AI to suicide themselves against you. The game is honestly just boring where no choices you make have any...

To the civ 4 veterans, we all know firaxis is always behind what we believe should in the game, from bhuric to solvers unnofficial patches we never played exactly what firaxis wanted us to, and eventually these changes always made it into an official patch, just months after we'd all been using...

I'm playing on emperor level in civ 5. Good idea avl, borderline exploit, but I think with some good planning you could probably get 50% more GP if you worked really hard on timing them. I'm playing through again on a different map, going down the piety branch instead of rationalism has at...

In civ 4 I was an emperor/immortal player who preffered to settle my specialists in three main cities: gold, science, and production. Sometimes two of those would be combined into one, say a science and production capital. I am trying to pull off something similar in civ 5 for fun. I know...

Jooyo, I really like your modpack and have been using it now for 2 weeks, it's great. My question is, are some of your changes now redundant with the new patch?

I downloaded your mod last night and it was great, but I didn't realize that the autosave feature doesn't work for the single player you pick in the mods portion of the main menu. I am wondering is there a way to enable autosave for a modded game?

I wish I could, I have 12 GB DDR3 and an overclocked i7 (3.5ghz), I tried a large map, default settings, 10 civs 20 city states. I had to quit before 0 AD as the time between turns was already 30 seconds or so. Like you said, I really don't think anyone has a computer to run this game on a...

I've beaten civ 4 with every leader on emperor, never smaller than a standard map, sometimes a huge map, all different varieties of victorys etc. I've beaten immortal in civ 4 three times, but lost well over 10 games. I've tried a handful of diety games in civ 4 with only one of those every...

@Kronin I agree, if the AI was in better shape a lot of these other issues would not be that important. The bad AI is really the problem. Even now, after years of civ 4, a game on immortal will almost certainly beat me. The actual threat of losing makes the game more enjoyable, now with 2...

So far I have enjoyed the city states, but they hardly add an element of depth. In my current game of civ5 I am currently allied with 9 of the city states. I just gift them 250g every time they are about to drop below allied. I went up the patronage tree so I was specifically trying to play...

Our history playing civs is quite similar, and I will attempt to explain my dissatisfication with the overall depth. A civilization game without religon feels wrong, maybe religon wasn't perfectly executed in civilzation 4, but it definately added an element of realism. Historically, wars...

Exactly, there aren't many games out there for the tedius gamer, civilization and simcity 4, and seeing as how we will never see a true sequel to simcity 4 we are stuck with civilization for the tedious minded gamer. Now on to that behemoth of a post I need to reply to...

Honestly, I'm not mad at anyone. My first impressions of civ 5 were very good, I love the new combat system and 1upt is a great addition. I'm just a little dissapointed with the removal of a lot of the depth that was there in BTS. Maybe it was just perceived depth and that all still exists in...

We'd have 10 awesome games a year, I could live with that. Your point though is lost on me because that would imply firaxis releases a bunch of games as well when they are really on par with blizzard for the amount of games they release and the time between releases.

I guess im jaded by blizzards awesome quality because I really only play blizzard games, civilization, and simcity 4 rush hour... yes I still play simcity 4.

I think if MP worked better we would really see the true awesomeness of the 1upt and ranged combat as only a human is going to be able to work the combat right as of now.
