It just recently got a price drop on Steam to $9.99. Is it worth buying yet? I heard it has many game imbalances and broken features that make me still cautious to purchase this addition; I'm loving HTTT.

-assume hexes are in -assume 1UPT is in -assume SPs are in (does not necessarily remove civics!) What would you have changed from 4 and added to the above 3 features to make civ5 a better game? ***Note: do not say better AI in any way because obviously we would all love that and it...

EPIC SAX GUY

I've been playing video games for 25 years now. It's part of who I am, sad or not. Recently I just had the idea that maybe I'm not normal in this regard: there are probably a lot more people with less than 5 years of game playing beneath their belts. That got me thinking about what...

Hey guys, please list your favorite video games of all time, preferably in order, and preferably with a brief explanation. I love video games and want to gather a feeling for people's preferences around here. Please don't debate each other about why a game is better/worse, but feel free to...

Does anyone play without saving? Generally I save frequently in case of crashes. Since the game has bored me lately I thought I would try being risky and play a game without saving once. Normally I play on Immortal as it's pretty difficult for me, but I decided I would try this on Emperor...

When you select America in single player mode it will load up a map of the United States of America as it appeared ca. 1775...before it was a nation or named the United States of America. Is my history off on this one or is this just another absolutely moronic oversight by Firaxis and co.?

So I've been thinking about it for a while and I used to like UAs, but now I think I prefer traits that are taken from a common pool: Are the French people really more cultured than any other civilization, but only until they discover the power of steam? Do the English really build ships...

So I've tried many times over the past month or so to play a game of Civ5. The only one I've been able to finish was with a mod that heavily altered the game. I thought that maybe if I played a public game I would be forced to actually finish one whether I was way ahead and had to keep hitting...

I've been looking through the GlobalDefines.xml and I realized something....I don't know what more than half of it means! :confused: The modwiki page is blank and locked to editing as well, so no help there. :( So, in an effort to expand our communal knowledge (including my own), let's all...

(Currently titled) JohnnyW's Epic Reality Mod I have a grand vision for this mod that probably isn't possible until the main code is released. Even then I am only decent at XML currently so it be a difficult road even then. These are a list of my concerns of vanilla and my ideas for this...

Is it possible to allow cities to work hexes in a larger radius? I'd like to have cities be able to reach farther then 3 hexes and also increase the minimum distance btween them. Also, is it possible to limit the number of military units allowed based on population size? I think...

Hey guys....I want to completely alter how SPs are unlocked and I'd like to know if there's any possible way to implement my method in Civ5. Here's my idea: Instead of being able to choose any SP available for the same price I would like to assign a cultural value to each individual SP...

When I go to Properties for my mod in ModBuddy I get this message: It appears on the Custom Properties, Actions, and Content tabs. What do I do? :confused:

1) Strategic depth: is it really as easy to acquire by simply modifying building and unit costs, changing a few policy effects and such? Or would you argue there is enough strategic depth in this game as it stands? Or perhaps you think it cannot achieve true strategic depth currently? 2)...

So I haven't been able to figure if I can directly buff tile yields on a tech discovery. I can see how to buff improvement yields (as there are examples), but I don't see anything that would allow me to buff terrain yields from a tech directly. For example, let's say I wanted to improve...

Simple Q, just started trying to code some stuff, nothing works that I do. Tried: Gave me 3. Gave me 3. Tried several other things, but they all give me 3. The mod is loading because when I put It gave 0 science. Really getting frustrated at my lack of understanding of why...

Is it possible to implement a system of health like in civ4? I had totally forgotten about it until I opened it up again today to check out the tech tree. Also, would it be possible to bring back government types? This is probably asking for waaaaay too much to be possible, and I know it.

Hi guys, I'm thinking about working on a mod that would alter almost every aspect of gameplay to fit my own personal preferences. One thing I'm intent on is creating a much deeper tech tree including dozens of more real life innovations going from prehistoric, to speculating into the distant...
