    I laugh at the description for Deity...

    http://steamcommunity.com/stats/CivV/achievements/ Only 0.4% of players have beaten Deity level. Of course, that doesn't show how many people have attempted it.

    Greyed Out Buildings/Wonders...

    If you hover over it, the tooltip should (SHOULD) explain why it's disabled. As there are no resource prerequisites for it, and you say that Space Race is not disabled, the only other thing I can think of is that another of your cities is already building it? (In which case it'll say something...

    Has the game finally been released for the rest of the world?

    Recommends an internal defrag? That's a new one :D You tease, Steam. Best put the kettle on - it's going to be a long night...

    Has the game finally been released for the rest of the world?

    15 minutes to go... As a reminder for those of you who missed the US launch / haven't preloaded a Steam title before, there's ANOTHER wait whilst all of the Steam files are decrypted - so it'll probably be another 30 minutes after launch-time before you can start a game... Edit: I'm probably...

    Saving Direct X setting?

    Looks bugged to me. The launch window says "right-click and create a shortcut", which I do: ...but every time I open the new shortcut, it spawns that same launch window. That's not a shortcut :D

    Has the game finally been released for the rest of the world?

    No, midnight GMT. UK is currently GMT+1 because of daylight saving, so it will be released at 1am UK time. (They could've made this clearer...)

    Combat Zoom

    +1 for more information during a combat animation. Frankly, during some exchanges, I've been unsure of (a) who's attacking me, and (b) which is my unit / who am I cheering for!

    Giant Death Robot in Civ !?

    Um, in which case, read the poll options again: I think you meant to click Yes ("I want the option to turn it off") :D

    Gamespy powers the mod side of things.

    Drug References

    Also the Giant Death Robot page refers to it being a "Modern Armor unit on steroids".

    Seconded.

    cycle units

    I'm curious too. Maybe related, but I keep getting the End Turn prompt when I've got units which haven't moved yet. Very annoying.

    Civ5 Command-Line Options?

    There's a SkipIntroMovie parameter in an ini file (see here) but it doesn't seem to do what you'd expect (you get a black screen instead, apparently). In terms of other options, the only other one I've stumbled across is here, allowing you to change Minimum Zoom Level (lets you zoom in...

    So... ruins?

    There was a topic yesterday where this happened to someone. I spent most of this morning trying to find it, and failing! If anyone else can find it, I'd be very interested in making sure it gets filed under "bugs".

    will Unlocked 24/09 at 00:01 in Europe?

    Don't forget to also add time for unpacking all of the files, and (if you bought the digital deluxe edition) downloading 1GB of extras. Although it unlocks at midnight UK time, I'm not expecting any gameplay before 1.30am!

    City-States: Does this count as trespassing?

    Great - I was hoping that was the case - otherwise I'd be very worried about the AI pathfinding. Until now, I've been very carefully moving all units manually to avoid city-state borders at all costs :D

    City-States: Does this count as trespassing?

    From the manual - Does anybody know whether it counts as trespassing if you pass through in a single move (i.e. you don't end your turn there)? For instance, often the automatic route-finding will (annoyingly) pass through the corner of a city state, and I'm worried in case I'm going to lose...

    Direct2Drive version for sale in some places of Europe - please advice

    They don't make it clear, but their "shipping date" is actually "date which we will ship your Steam key to you". So when they say "available now", this just means "we will give you your Steam key now, and you can preload for the 24th".

    So what's up with the super ugly rivers?

    That looks like the sunlight effect to me (more obvious on oceans).
