    Winter 2015 Update now live!

    This is just absurd. :undecide: How do you just ignore such a huge bug for months....

    Winter 2015 Update now live!

    I'm very sad to hear that it seems like the quests are still broken. How does something like quests, a fairly important part of the game, go un-fixed this long? I've barely played this game so I don't notice which quests are missing, but am I correct to assume that in 200 turns of playing I...

    Winter 2015 Update now live!

    Have the quests been fixed? I had heard that quests were bugged in a way that meant most of them would never trigger, and have not played the game very much because of that. (That was a while ago so it may well have been fixed before this patch) Wonder changes sound nice, most of the wonders...

    Aggression toward station partners?

    I've been wondering the same thing. Fairly early in the game I destroyed a station the PAC was trading with and destroyed it. 200 turns later I haven't ever attacked another station, yet they still come to me with that warning. However it hasn't actually affected our relations very much. From...

    Dumb Question about pre-orders and Steam vs. retail

    Couldn't say. The only game I've ever actually pre-loaded was Dark Souls II, and it did it by my command, not randomly.

    Dumb Question about pre-orders and Steam vs. retail

    1) I can't speak for certain with BE, but Civ V wasn't all digital, I have a disc for it 2) yes , steam let's you "pre-load" games before hand, I think 24 hours before release.

    Affinities in Sci-Fi

    Anyone know much about the Yuuzhan Vong from the Star Wars comics / Books? I don't know much, only what little I've read online really. Not sure if they would fit as purity or Harmony. All their technology, even space travel tech, is organic in nature and they despise I guess what you would call...

    Acquiring Spies

    I would guess that they come with either affinity levels, as you mentioned, or with certain techs. But that is, of course, just a guess. If they come with affinities, I wonder if certain affinities have more spies than others?

    2nd Beyond Earth Livestream - 8/21

    No, the alien they fired rockets at with the city took 67 damage. That explorer did look like it took 10 and died though. Explorers have less health maybe? UI glitch? Although explorers were seen in the last stream and I'm pretty sure they had 100hp there. I'm thinking it probably just looked...

    Problem: Only Standard map size for Civ Beyond Earth?

    I've been thinking the same thing, however I'm not sure it will actually be a problem. With the way cities seem to work in BE, taking lots of time to set up, I think empires will be a lot smaller. Another thought, because of the (what I'm assuming will be ) small empires, maybe a map size...

    Absurd

    oh my no, I didn't mean for them to sell it on day one! although I suppose they would have to it if was a pre-order bonus :/ soo.....dang. I guess I can keep hoping that get added in free like the Mongols...but that seems like a longshot.

    Absurd

    While it could make sense for central Europe to have been devastated by the "great mistake", I'm hoping that's not the case. I really want to see the German speaking nations included in some form or another. Maybe we might see Germany represented as some sort of new coalition that formed after...

    Need General and Admiral names for a mod I'm creating

    I don't know that he really meets the standards of a great general, but I've got a suggestion for Austria if you're short on names: Major Franz Hackher. Unfortunately I can't find anything on him in English haha. In 1809 he defended Schlossberg, the fort of Graz, from Napoleonic troops and held...

    Terra map type?

    Every major civilization starts on a single continent, the "old world", and there is a second continent, the "new world" which only starts with city states and lots of open space. The idea is that once ocean travel becomes possible, there is a race to colonize the vast open territory of the "new...

    Why can't my navy move through this CS?

    There is no Fog of war, the tile is lit up. If you look farther away you see the tiles become dark, unseen. He can see it through Ragusa's LoS since he is their ally. I suppose their could be a submarine. But he just got frigates and is researching economics. So he would have to be REALLY far...

    Why can't my navy move through this CS?

    To you guys saying that the tile he wants to move to could be occupied, if you look at the screen shot you can see the tile he is hovering over and he has a clear LOS on it. It is empty, so that isn't the problem. The city of Ragusa also has no units in it so that's not it either. The...

    Tiny Islands not so tiny

    Maybe it was just he luck of the map generation? I've once had a "small continents" game make a map with 2 continents, 1 civ started alone on 1, and the other 9 players all started on the other "small" continent.

    Tweak a Civ!

    Japan: Remove Bushido as a UA and add it as a promotion on the samurai. Keep the culture from boats/atolls in the UA, and also add + culture from internal trade routes, to emphasize Japanese Isolationism/ preservation of their culture in a globalized world.

    Help me pick my next game civ

    I was originally going to say choose Spain and hope you find the barrier reef or Krakatoa early. However I'd actually vote for the Celts, try to set up the religion to help your science: Interfaith dialogue, Jesuit Education (I think that's what its called, the belief that allows you to buy...

    Average Number Of Cities Players Build

    Current game I have 10 settled + 4 puppets. However I'm almost certain that my play style of continuous and late game colonization is something most people on these boards never do. (I just settled two cities while entering the modern era). I would bet the average is a 4-6 city tradition build.
