    The first patch is out

    Don't be so sure. Sadly there is more than one way to skin a cat.

    If Great Spies are so great, why is everyone informed of their coming?

    Change the CODE! You nearly made me faint! You don't just "Change the code" all willy nilly, why that would be reserved for something like a commercial expansion pack :rolleyes:

    A huge bummer for me D:

    This is a perfect illustration why this is so silly. Is there a *rational* reason not to just make every expansion pak stand alone? Only a *very* small cross-section of customers will be interested in an Xpak and not own the original. Since this section is SO small, it comes accross as petty...

    Civilization Daydreams: "Alexander" Animated Short

    What the hell, where in the worldbuilder is the Godzilla button?! :lol:

    How does Spy spread culture?

    I wonder if you could make them all :yuck: and :mad: for a while, and then pop the :culture: at about 2 pop? I imagine it is expensive because it allows you to take a city during peacetime. That be powerful stuff.

    Anybody Just Want to Smack Pacal?

    Some of his diplomacy animation is priceless :D You should be able to make him go stand in the corner.

    A direct case for Cataphract as strongest UU

    I'm skeptical that it is any nastier, or even as nasty, as the Legion.(oh sorry, I meant Praetorian:mischief:) It is sick, as was the cossack, but I think the Romans still got it.:goodjob:

    Does anyone else out there get the feeling...

    I got that feeling very strongly, especially after I re-enabled the original opening screen :) I don't read sinister undertones into it though, it's just the final result of tons of incremental improvement.

    Useless Praetorians

    That is the single most... UNHOLY suggestion I have ever heard. Are you aware that musketmen only have a power of 9? I genuinely hope for your sake that this is an odd joke :D

    All oil gone by 2050

    It's funny, you know. I wasn't even thinking in political terms when I made my replies, but I suppose this is borderline political :crazyeye: I swear I wasn't actively trying to start a political debate. :)

    All oil gone by 2050

    Yeah, supply and demand only goes so far. If you have oil at say 100X the value it is now, I would have to imagine it would wreak considerable havoc with a lot of things. Still, as I said before, I am not an expert.

    Gilgamesh's music

    To be fair I never said or implied ugh, and I was thinking of something more than a rock. I was picturing simple percussion however, so I am definitely still wrong :D Interesting how early some of those things came to be, much earlier than I would have thought myself.

    Gilgamesh's music

    Me? Wouldn't music from that long ago be about that simple, or am I suffering from a fundamental misunderstanding?

    Boudica the Bad?

    Oh no no no... some of the combos are straight raw unfiltered chunky . .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. I for one will *never* be suckered into playing MP with any leader/any civ. Cheeze that comes to my mind(admittedly not the *best* player ever) Boudica of Rome = Praetorians of Doom Hammurabi...

    Gilgamesh's music

    A better question is, do you want to listen to authentic music from the dawn of time? Clunk clunk clunk cla-clunk cla-clunk... you know that is all it would be :lol:

    Firaxis attributes itself fans and modders work!!!

    Oh come on now! ;) Isn't it just so much more spiritually soothing to believe in the big evil shiftless corporation and the lone brilliant under appreciated modder?

    Don't give your money to Direct2Drive!

    Yes, but in the case of a game being available on steam, what is the ADVANTAGE of Direct2Drive? It seems to me "I don't like steam even though I don't know why" is usually the *advantage* to D2D.

    Gilgamesh - Creative......Why?

    Yeah but for some reason I think at least 25% of the forum would be happy with a whole ton of leaders that were aggressive/imperialistic aggressive/protective aggressive/charismatic etc ad nauseum :crazyeye: Some of them have a sense of historical accuracy that overpowers their sense of game...

    Steam, and retail copies.

    It does download an EXE. It's in the steamapps subfolder. Hooray for anti-steam F.U.D. ;)

    Boudica the Bad?

    Not to mock the long dead, but that seems eerily historical doesn't it?
