    Alternative to intro cinematic

    I created a video file by editing the original cinematic file if anybody is interested in using it. It shows the 3 company logos and then instead of starting the movie it goes right to the Civ 5 title and the cool animations that transition to each era. I removed the original sound and...

    New DLC's this Monday...

    I don't think they're released yet. But before they are, I have a question. :D How do you go about purchasing and downloading them? Is it done thru the game itself or do I have to navigate thru the Steam interface to find them? I'm just curious. I've never obtained DLC content before...

    Modders - your thoughts on design practices.

    TLDR: Questions in bold. Just a short while before Civ5, I was toying around with my very first comprehensive mod (in fact, first mod period) of Civ4. I was really working hard on it and progressing until the announcement of Civ5 put everything to a screeching halt and I shelfed it since I...

    Stealing workers from City-States

    Do many players steal early workers from city-states? Is this the optimal strategy? I don't really incorporate this strategy into my games, but may reconsider it. My concern is: Does it affect your long-term relations with all city-states and get you the -2 decay sooner? I like to...

    The Iroquois

    I was going nuts one game wondering why my trade networks weren't being connected thru all the forests I had everywhere between cities. I purchased the land tiles also. I checked out the tech tree and was reminded again that I skipped over the roads technology because I figured I didn't need...

    Pillaging is awesome!

    Last night during my current Emperor game as England, Montezuma (my neighbor) called me out and said he noticed my units near his borders (which were only there for defense against this lunatic) and to stop hiding in the shadows like a child and fight him. Well that kinda annoyed me, and...

    Yes! Fractal maps!

    Last night, thru another thread, I learned that the Fractal map script is back. This alone has enhanced my game much more; I'm very pleased. :D When I first picked up the game, I was disappointed that it wasn't there since that's all I played in Civ 4. I don't know how I missed it since I...

    Omg, Blood and Gore in Civ 5?

    The rating for this game was very misleading because my warriors happened to stumble upon some sacrificial lambs in their explorations. :eek: :lol: Sacrificial Lambs

    Trading Posts...

    Does anybody else dislike the trashy trading posts we're forced to use if we want to obtain more commerce? It's like carny circus tents all over my kingdom. :cry: I'm actually reluctant to plop them down at times because they're so ugly and ruin my view. And they don't really get better with...

    Future Leaders and Civs to be released...

    So, when 2K/Firaxis chooses a new civilization and leader to add to the game, they're going to have to hire Morgan Sheppard to do additional voice acting along with someone that speaks the language each time? It seems like a lot of trouble is going to go into adding additional civs since...

    So, what difficulty are you playing at?

    Not for bragging rights or anything... I'm just curious to see how everybody's doing with this new version of the game that introduces many different game mechanics we're not accustomed to yet. I remember Civ 4 kicking my butt on Prince when I first played it. My first game with Civ 5 was to...

    The Power of Golden Ages

    Does anybody else find golden ages to be extremely powerful? They've really saved my butt quite a few times and have gotten my empire crankin'. It's like city Viagra! :woohoo: I think my next game will be with Persia to try out their unique ability. I guess since production is more...

    Some Civ 5 Annoyances...

    First, I'd like to say I absolutely love the game. The combat... the graphics... the music... the look and feel of the interface... lots of good stuff. I also understand the game was just released and will likely need some patches and future expansions to fix/enhance some things. But...

    The WASP Mod

    Widely Altered and Standardized Play :nuke: UNDER DEVELOPMENT :nuke: 9/28/10 UPDATE: If Civ 5 doesn't shape-up and get the patches it really needs in the near future, I'm going to come back to Civ 4 and continue working on this mod in full force. I have many features and changes within...

    A few simple unit requests

    Hi, I have a few simple unit requests for my WASP mod in development: Would someone kindly create models (for each BTS ethnic group) using the maceman weilding a nice sword and shield (instead of a mace) and using the swordman's animations? For some background and to get an idea for its...
