    The PAX is over - A Gods & Kings summary

    And from what I read, Maria Theresa was born in spain, dead in Versailles, and was the queen of France since her marriage with Louis XIV. Not much Austria here.

    Why haven't you bought Civ5 yet?

    I didn't bought the game because I played the demo first.

    Shuffle map script

    I have a question for about map script, but I'm not sure I should post it directly into the sub forum ? I'm back to Civ IV, and bought Warlord + BTS yesterday to forget about the mess Civ V currently is. Last game on (Vanilla) Civ IV was I guess 4 years ago, so I'm quite lost in the community...

    Interview with Firaxis' Dennis Shirk!

    Thanks for the highlight ! Don't want to be rude, but this is just BS and sounds backward justification to me. It may be true that USA won't convert to communism soon (but who will, tell me ?), but we are not talking about 50 years span, but about THOUSANDS YEAR SPAN here. In Civ 5, you are...

    For Those Who Haven't Bought CiV

    Even if the game is so-so, I'm a civilization whore, and honestly, 50 bucks is not much to me. But I'm still refraining myself to buying it, because I don't want to support F2K or other companies to release half-finished, half-designed games. I'll wait for the first big patch, or even for...

    Social policies - immersion problems

    A throne room enhancement each time you unlock a social policy will have been great. Like an old coat of arms hanging on the wall when you unlock "Military Tradition", or adding the constitution book on your desk when unlocking the "Constitution". Some flavor explanations (like for the...

    Should workers be able to build marshes or otherwise change terrain?

    Terraforming should be possible to some extent. I for one will be glad to do the following change: - plant forest - self growing forest - improve desert to 'regulated desert' (improvement equivalent to a plain tile, but with maintenance. Still desert underneath) - raze hill to plain - one tile...

    Sullla Discovers the Major Fault Behind Civ V: The Death of Civ?

    Last post by drachasor pretty much sum it up. I agree that this game is a great disappointment for the moment. Global happiness may have simplify the game, but it also seem to have broken it. The main question about ICS, and general game design should be this one: "Why a player wants to...

    Balance Issue: Unit-boosting buildings are all but useless

    This civilopedia is just a waste :confused: ... You can't rely on it. Half of the entries are inaccurate or false. Not to mention that half the information is not even there anyway...

    Bonus Resources, useless?

    Is it really the way it works ? What the point of cattle then ? Can someone who plays the game tell me how it works ? I can't find this information anywhere :crazyeye: The documentation is useless and I am not able to find a website that explain this (very advanced) topic "How the resources works".

    Persia's ability ridiculously powerful?

    The +1 movement bonus really seems over the top.

    My totally unbiased and definitely not paid for by 2k review

    Gameplay > Realism That is a good idea. Not sure about the tech, but it just make perfect sense.

    Diplomacy gripe: "We see your troops on our borders"

    Thanks to the OP to post this. It's one of the few posts that make me want to actually buy the game. Thought I don't get how he could complain about that smart behavior. About the fact that it's not fair you cannot do that to the AI, I have to ask: Does the AI mass units at your border to...

    How to make Civ5 better

    Sorry Dude, don't want to be rude, but you don't know what you are talking about here. Furthermore you are confusing between WHAT to improve (AI war capabilities) and HOW to improve it (algorithm behind the scene). And anyway, I find they are more obvious problems to address now: UI not...

    road coast + explorer

    First, I play the demo in french, so I don't know the proper english terms to use here. I have 2 questions: How is calculated the road maintenance ? It's 1 gold / road. But which road exactly ? The roads that are inside my border (who builds them does not matter), or is it the road that I...

    Small nation VS Large Nation

    Anyway 20.000, 200.000 or even 200.000.000.000 doesn't matter if ur figthing only 300 men. Only few of your warriors will be able to fight them at the same time, specially if ur foe is defending a tiny path on a small beach, surrounded by mountain.

    mutual protection vs non-aggression

    And if a non agression pact does not allowed to walk on you partner's country ? This way it's not really a RoP :D Anyway i'm not sure there is a use to a such new diplomatic agreement, but maybe more various diplomaty, the better ?

    mutual protection vs non-aggression

    Or you could add the non aggression pact with some features that make it quite different from a peace treaty. For example a 20 turn duration, not to get stuck forever, and a more drastic penalty for broking the alliance than during peace time.
