Civ 5 is immersive enough if you ask me.What spoils this is the fact that the diplomacy and partly the warfare is at a very poor state currently.The lack of options and deeper motivation to do thinkgs combined with the very streamlined tech tree that allows huge slingshots takes away from the...

In the end the compromise should be something like - Keep the fast healing but make the penalty bigger.If you heal at max you skip a exp level. so if you use healing on your first promotion you don`t get a second one and can choose an upgrade on your third promotion level.(damn that was a crappy...

In my mind Fast healing should stay but only within your City(I say City not cultural border!) .This will make keeping some citys while pushing the war effort instead of razing everything but the essential. Also as I said in the previous pages.If the 1UPT is changed for 1UtypePT this can make...

Ok guys anyone played allready post 1 AD? I have and so far is very interesting.I am ahead on the tech race but the others are nearby.Trying to save as much caravans for my Woman sufferage.Also don`t prepare for early qonquest you should allready know why :P SPOILER PRE 1 AD DON`T READ AS...

I don`t want to spoil anything guys but the map so far is great.Deffo worth playing.Hell I`d consider trying it out(if I can) on King+ with full wanders. Also as far as my game goes I think Im going to go for women sufferage+ Republic heavy conquesting.It will make it more challenging but I...

Interesting scenario.Since I have Civ 2 installed @ work guess who will be "working" overtime the upcomming week :) Game on.

In my mind one of the biggest blunders Firaxis made is making the AI play for the win. Let me elaborate by asking you to answer thiese simple questions: 1) Why is the Diplomacy so unpredictable? 2) Why all Civs are so agressive? 3) Why all Civs are dogpiling on the weakest opponent? 4)...

Imo if there were policys that directly remove/lower unhappyness of larger citys while the unhappyness for each subsequent city created by your civ(aka to encourage you to anex citys and not raze them) to rise this could lead to some medium where it is cool to have 7-10 citys while the gain of...

Lurker observation: As far as I know and tested You can`t use GE effectivly to boost rocket parts.Also it will yield not as much extra hammers in to the project.Also bare in mind that you can`t multi build the same part.So plan on what you will build where.Tho to be honest you are way ahead...

Quite an interesting game here.Will be lurking.Lets see if it will come close to my first rome game on King :)

I am sorry elley but you will have it way way hard to have a chance at Diety with non ICS strategy.I managed to make a successfull ICS Immortal game but even then I had like 15 citys just because I needed that income and science to be able to keep up with the competition. Yes on prince you...

A little idea that came of the top of my head while following the game was that GS need to have a turn delay so they can`t get a chain slingshot at a sertain tech path.I looked at the great artist and the solution was there.You can`t make two consecutive culture bombs but instead have to wait 10...

Ofcourse that with my approach you can have the rock-papper-scissor-in-one stack problem.But that is the beuty of it.You are limited by 3 or less units per tile.But just like in Civ IV you can have way more tactical finetuning.For example getting an extra one or two ranged( be it archers or...

Pi-r8 I gave a hard thought on your post game analysis and run some napkin math again and I came to quite an interesting conclusion. As you said 1UPT is the main factor for the lack of balance and the disconnect between the various aspects of the game. So I thought this idea and I hope you...

ICS can be dealt with very easly.Just scale the unhappyness relative to the number of Citys.So for example after building 5 citys the Unhappyness goes to 4 another 5 and it goes to 6 per new city etc. etc. This will hardcap ICS to ~ 20 or so Citys and after that you won`t realy have economic...

I was thinking about what a lurker said a few pages back that the only real challenge left in this game is to persuit a cultural win with that many cities.So I did some napkin math. Assume 30 cities(they have a bit less I think but for the sake of easyer math) : 1) Monument - 2 culture 2)...

I can only shake my head in owe of the blindness of the developers. 1) Road spaggeti is ugly we need to do something about it! - Make maintentance to hamper road spam - Make roads to have bleak visuals so they dont dominate the landscape Sounds good on paper right? Now open one of their...

I am thinking about going small pangea (to avoid some free corner Civ going out of what in the early AD ) DIety game to see if I can manage it but what I am going to do is get the water level to High so that I can have more snaky continents - easier for me to defend/secure land. Hopefully I can...

HaHAa Centerfinger when you said you went for domination win with the Russia you really ment it :D . I am very happy that you managed it and I am looking foreward in to continueing to give tips and what not in this thread if you choose to continue to ask qustions and post replays/SS for us to...

Best game ever!
