It doesn't really do anything other than getting the access to each other's territory. International trade route doesn't worth investment because Civ V's AI loves to DOW and it's very difficult to maintain a stable foreign relation. I kind of ignore the open borders deal in my game...

I can only manage to pull this off under large deity pangea setting......

Wow.. i never notice this. gotta check it out today.

In OCC, it automatically razes everthing, including capital and city state.... funny.

Russia and China fought a war about 300 years ago..... but not a big one.

For this game, probably not. But when start over, check your advance game setting. Make sure you do not check the "turn limit" option. that will force the game to end i guess, but i never try it in a real game.

I am from Taiwan, currently working in China. It's nice to know the diversity of regions of this wonderful community. People can share the same hobbie regardless their nationality.

this AI sounds like a multi-players game to me. No Human player will be your buddy forever and can change their side instantly when the time is right unless preset teams is in place.

I almost always use a Great Engineer for wonder rush build. it's very useful in this sense. Culture bomb of the Great Artist is only useful when a strategic resource are in the region. And when you really need one, you normally don't have the other........ so GA is normally the option. I...

Ought to be able to. There's LAN option under the multiplayer section. So Local LAN should be playable.

In fact, i think turning off the intro video actually makes the game loading faster... at least i feel this way after i turned it off..

Turn speed does not relate to the graphic effect or detail level. it's on the AI complexity. the more civ or CS you have on the same map, the longer you will have to wait. I am using a laptop with very marginal hardware spec to play Civ 5, i got 30 to 90 seconds waiting time per turn as well...

I couldn't agree more. Civ is a board game, rules are set to make it playable, and everybody follows the same rule, not a reality simulation game. And the best part, if you don't like the rule, you can mod it. this is a great platform to play around.

Exactly !! recovery from a tough loss is very difficult to overcome, and this make things more interesting in my view.

And East Europe & Siberia regions. Large area and great places to start. However it affects game balance with TSL mod....

In fact, i like Civ5 better on this. Land grabbing oriented gameplay style is not my taste. I prefer a more resource dependant oriented gameplay style. Bigger is not the only way out anymore. I think your point makes sense. send settler everywhere without limit doesn't feel logical, this...

There should be an achievement on Steam for this...

I only got it to 32 with China without any CS at 500 turns. (On Huge Map.)

I got it on the 2nd day in two games...... early game wonders are about options. If I chooses stone hinge as the first wonder to build, i need to spend turns on tech and production of the wonder. Chances are when i am at it, some of the other AI civs will get to wonders other than stone hinge...

The key difference between mara/epic vs standard mode is the value of what you can do in one turn. The value of getting extra gold or extra units in one turn has more impact to the game in mara/epic mode than in standard mode. Therefore keeping your unit alive every turn becomes more valuable...
