    Buying multiple buildings in the same city question.

    Simple question, should I be able to buy more than one building a turn in the same city? I can, but I know I can't buy more than one unit a turn, and I was almost sure I couldn't for buildings too... until I did. If the answers no, then here's a brief explaination of what's happening. I have 6...

    For anyone interested there is a new Driver for Nvidia Cards. http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us There is no mention of Civilization V in the notes, and I myself am just downloading and am unaware of any added performance for the game due to the new drivers.

    Games crashes on turn 49

    I was trying to recreate a bug I have seen many times, were I would capture a protected CS's worker, and then make piece right after. The Civ who was protecting the CS would then pop up, and I would choose the "sorry" answer. After hitting next turn I would recieve a tresspassing for my newly...

    Worldbuilder and ruins question.

    I like using the worldbuilder's option of generating a map/resources so I can make sure I have a nice looking map with enough continents and features. By the time I'm playing I've already forgotten the map layout, but I know it's one I like. The downside is that there are no ruins when I start...

    Worldbuilder/SDK Bug?

    I have Civ V on two machines, and the SDK on both also. On one PC when I start the SDK steam starts and then I click on the worldbuilder and it loads too. On my second/main gaming PC it happens differently. I start the SDK and steam loads, and then I choose the worldbuilder. The main...

    Peace Treaty "Fixed", I don't think so

    So everyone knows by now how bad the AI was with making a peace treaty, giving everything pretty much. In my latest game after the small update they are even worse, imo. I have conquered two civs, U.S. and Babylon, and everytime they pop up with a treaty it is just the treaty for 10 turns. No...

    Question about GraphicsSettingsDX11.ini

    I was looking through the GraphicsSettingsDx11.ini file when I noticed a line that said NumberContinents = 4. I also have the game installed on a second computer at my Mom's house, and it says NumberContinents = 2. I figured it had a lower number because the second computer has lower specs...

    City states do not settle

    Sorry I don't have a save or anything, but I'll describe this the best I can. I picked a small earth map, everything left default, I was Egypt. Began the game, first turn I met a City State, but noticed I didn't get any gold. One tile below my warrior was the city states settler. I killed it...

    What do you think "Collectible Items Locations" are?

    http://guides.ign.com/guides/62125/ This is the page for the upcoming Ign guide. Check out the guide's contents, third one down, Collectible Items Locations. What do you suppose this is? Stuff hidden on the world map to be found?

    Graphic's Hierarchy Chart

    There has been a few members asking about graphics cards, mainly what to get. When I bought my new card a while back I found Tom's Hardware as a good source(among many out there). This is a link to a Graphics Hierarchy Chart, basicly the cards at the top are the best, the ones at the bottom...

    Civ V retail WON'T be in a box

    I was looking at Walmart.com, and under the product description they had this: Product in Inches (L x W x H): 7.5x5.0x0.5 Shipping Weight (in pounds): 0.3 So for everyone who was hoping for a thick manual, looks like it's not happening. :( I also 100% believe this is accurate because...

    Zones of Control Effect?

    In the gamespot article http://e3.gamespot.com/story/6265330/civilization-v-qanda-first-e3-details?tag=topslot%3Bthumb%3B1&page=2 it is said units have a Zone of control effect. "One other big thing we've done is add a zone-of-control effect to the game to prevent enemies from easily skirting...

    Suggestion for forum.

    Just a thought, but now that steam is part of civ, is there a way for a moderator to make a sub forum just for steam, that way the main civ v forum stays clean of steam related threads, and those with real thoughts and concerns(and false thoughts and concerns) can go there to discuss and rant...

    Vote for Coverage at E3

    http://e3.gamespot.com/readers-most-anticipated Gamespot is running a readers choice poll for E3 coming up in mid June. I'm sure they plan on covering Civ V, but more votes wouldn't hurt right? The more info the better! Civ V was in the lower numbers compared to some other games so lets be...

    Civ V Navies

    Land units are able to switch spots if they are directly next to eachother, and I believe have movement points. Has it been said if the same will be true for water based units, such as frigates, destroyers, subs, and the new transport mechanism for the land units? I was also wondering about the...

    2K/Fraxis dont like poor people

    I feel bad for all the less fortunate people who cant play civ. I really wish everyone could, regardless of if they have the internet or not. This effects poor people the most. What are the fine, and poor sympathetic, peoples thoughts on civfanatics?
