    Can no longer launch the game "this file is damaged"

    I last played the game a few days before the Caesar/Leader Pass release. I was already on macOS 13 at that time. I then uninstalled the game for a bit. The last few days however, I reinstalled the game and whenever I try to launch it, I see this message: I've tried removing the Leader Pass...

    Multiplayer? Does it work? What about Mac/Windows compat?

    Pretty much what the topic says. Are Mac and PC versions compatible yet for multiplayer? Does multiplayer work at all? I've just created a game to test as I wasn't seeing anything in "Internet", and I see some random people trying to join and getting kicked instantly. I'm guessing it's not...

    Climate change Idea

    Games before Civ5 had this global warming and tiles turning into deserts, especially the more pollution there was and the more nukes were used. It was deemed a non-fun feature and removed in Civ5 and beyond...

    Polynesian "New World" game/challenge

    Wondering if this has already been tried/thought of yet? Yesterday, thanks to the new Mac patch, I finally have access to all the new civs. Bought them all to test em out and bring some freshness to my games... First game I tried was Polynesia. As I was selecting the Civ, I decided to try THIS...

    One update/patch got downloaded last night, can I download it manually?

    Seems there was a new 25MB or so download last night for Civ5. Awesome, a patch, some people said it fixes some AI oddities. I'm new to steam, so I'm not sure how this works: can I download the patch manually so it can be installed on a friend's PC? Reason being, we're going to a place this...

    Deluxe edition (download) - where's the soundtrack?

    title says it all.. I'm supposed to have some kind of bonus features... like behind the scenes, and the soundtrack. Where do I find them? I'm sure this has been asked already.... but sooo many other threads here about the game itself makes it hard to find ;)

    One thing (of many) that I liked more than Civ4 and Civ3

    without technology trading, and with City States.. I was all alone on my continent, with 4 city states. The arabs were on another one to the north, and the English were busy beating the ********** out of Persia, Siam and France, on the big continent. This was at Prince, my first Prince...

    [SUGGESTED IMPROVEMENT] more info needed when a leader refers to another leader

    Hey, Noticed this in a game yesterday. I played a massive 22 civs game on a small map (until it kept crashing :( ), and there were TWO Greeces, with TWO Alexanders, on the same continent. Uh oh. One was blue, one was yellow, both had the Ohm sign. So when Napoleon came and asked me to...

    Will multiplayer require an internet connection/connection to Steam?

    I hope not, my friend and I will end up somewhere over the weekend where there's no Internet access at all, no cellphone reception.. Just peace and quiet to play :D However if Internet is require to logon to steam in order to do MP, then... that would suck :( I may have missed the info, so...

    Opening multiplayer savegame in single-player?

    Is it possible? I have this multiplayer savegame file here, from a game I played with a friend, and I'd love to open it in single player and poke around in Worldbuilder, but the game prevents me from opening it in single player. And of course there's no Worldbuilder in MP... I don't need...

    [funny screenshot] For some reason Gandhi just made me uneasy...

    When I started a new game (my first in 8 months), unpatched Warlords. Whenever I zoomed out I wouldn't see the terrain (green, forests, etc) but a lot of white. My people were veeery uneasy, especially after we met the Indians, ruled by Gandhi. Then one day, after having explored more of the...

    the "once and for all!" topic

    #1: Organized does not reduce city maintenance cost organized does not reduce city maintenance cost organized does not reduce city maintenance cost!!! Only thing it reduces is [civic] maintenance cost.. Civics happen to cost more when your empire is larger, so yes it helps that way in having...

    New unhappiness factor ? "we fear for our safety"

    I'm playing a game, where currently I only have a size 5 capital. I moved an archer out, leaving the city undefended, and immediately got a red angry face and some smoke. I looked inside, and saw this +1 unhappiness factor - in addition to the +5 from overcrowding - "we fear for our safety, we...

    Stone age epic mod

    Here's the beginning of an idea I was thinking of last night while half-delirious from flu: Have a REALLY epic game, where you start back in the stone age tens of thousands of years ago. You'd need to discover fire, hunting, tent-making, Yes you'd need to be able to do some minimal...

    What is xfire?

    I'm installing the 1.09 patch and I'm wondering what xfire is. Ok it seems to be something to gmae with ppl online and have IM from within the game. Big deal? Or ...? Does it replace the Gamespy engine that civ4 had? Does it complement it? Does it install a bunch of spyware or adware on my...

    Map generator needs more randomness

    I often play continents, standard sized map, epic + noble. Now for about 4-5 times so far, on 3 different computers, I've had the same same same map! Same starting positions (but not necessarily the same civs/leaders). I don't play with random seeds or anything like that. Just "Play now!" and...

    Nvidia driver 81.94 = GOOD!

    :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob: Previously I was using 77.77 as 81.85 was very bad. I tried 81.94 today, and boy what an improvement over 77.77! I have a nvidia geforce fx 5200. Playing a standard sized terra map, there is no lag at all right now, in the late 1900's with all map...
