    Australian Summer Patch discussion thread

    Edge scrolling still not fixed. Since it's such an easy fix I can only assume that for some weird reason they don't consider it broken. (In case you didn't know, putting the mouse right at the top of the screen doesn't scroll up, you have to be at the top of the graphical window, not the top of...

    Initial Reactions

    Having seen many people criticising the graphics on reddit and steam I was hoping to find civfanatics being an oasis of sanity. Do you really care what a tree looks like in a civ game? Really?

    instruction manual

    I threw away my civ 2 manual and chart about 10 years' ago and bitterly regretted it.

    Is ToT Abandonware now?

    "Abandonware" is not a real legal status. Even if a game is not being sold and you can't get hold of it at all it's still illegal to download it.

    Exoplanets pack now a DLC on steam

    You do know there are people out there (including me) that can nowhere near afford to spend $60 on a meal out for two, right ? In fact I eat out maybe once every six months and it's at a cafe or equivalent.

    PolyCast's Swag Contest, Episode 213 Celebration of "Civ: Beyond Earth" Release

    (first one is my main question if we have to have only one) 1 If you could go back in time to the start of development on the game, what would you do differently and why ? 2 Did you have in mind much the comparisons people would be drawing with civ v; did you think they would go as far as a...

    "Thanks" for making a grown man cry!

    My game works fine in 1080 but I have heard a number of people claim it doesn't. What's up with that?

    Need more reviews like this...

    A lot of people who bought Elemental and therefore got Fallen Enchantress and Legendary Heroes for free are very happy with Stardock, and you can see why. Less happy are the people who bought Fallen Enchantress and saw it get replaced by Legendary Heroes and have to pay for that game.

    Civ falsely thinks I'm attacking a Station

    I have had something related with a station. I had a sleeping orbital laser, and it woke with a message that an enemy unit was in range of my laser. The only thing there, and highlighted when I pressed ranged attack was the station. I had not previously attacked a single station.

    Attacking Aliens when exploring the Fog of War

    Have you uncovered much of the map though? I would guess that the explorers attacking aliens when on auto is related to moving into the fog of war.

    Attacking Aliens when exploring the Fog of War

    I was going to post this as a separate thread but it's a related what-I-feel-is-a-bug: If you put your explorer on auto-explore mode it will attack aliens too. Surely that is not right? It makes the automation of the unit pretty worthless. Also, with the 2 tiles from a nest auto attack thing...

    Crash on exit HsSrv.dll

    Played a game with no problems but on "exit to desktop" I got a black screen. Tabbed out and discovered the game had crashed, crashing in HsSrv.dll according to the standard screen.

    PolyCast's Swag Contest, Episode 213 Celebration of "Civ: Beyond Earth" Release

    Given that the game will be out long before the deadline to put your question up, you will know the answer to this already.

    10 hours left until release [edit: now released worldwide]

    My broadband is currently broken and the deadline the engineers told me it would be fixed by is around 6pm on 24th. I'm currently on wifi that I paid for, for a day, but that runs out in a few hours, before the game will be unlocked. I have it pre-loaded but I'm going to miss the actual launch...

    Official CivBE full intro cinematic "The Chosen"

    I was reminded of the NatGeo cover but then I instantly thought I was being naive like "oh so every young girl wearing a headscarf is the same to you, eh?". I chide myself a lot like that. I agree with others that the best part was the priest putting his hand up to the rocket window and the...

    The size makes it a lot harder than you'd think but I had fun anyway. edit: Made a grey background version and tweaked it a bit.

    What have I gotten myself into?

    I wouldn't worry about your choice of civ to play at this stage. You're just learning the game, and the differences between the civs are something you will appreciate more when you have learned the game a bit better. For now, play whoever you want!

    Same worldwide pricing

    We get ripped off on games prices fairly often too. On steam we frequently pay an extra 20% for vat and then an extra extra 10-30% for no discernable reason other than the market allows it.

    Then the person who records gameplay or screenshots tooltips will feel extra badass, like a spy taking photos of stuff from a filing cabinet in a dark office.
