I'd like to know how you divulged that?

That's a shame - I've always gauged popular forum threads by comments on the main page, and it leads people into the proper discussion topic straight away. At least a link from the news post to the forum thread would be a step in the right direction if the two can't be integrated. Otherwise...

I must say that I too am surprised at this redesign. I've been gone for a while, and was surprised that there wasn't a lively discussion about the Fall Patch from a link on the main page. Just "0 comments". Has another Civ-community taken some of the traffic from this site? As for the design...

A lot of pessimism in this thread. A cool thing is that they are keeping all of the features from the "post-expanded" Civ 5, like religion, which isn't par for the course with the series. A good change! Graphics look so-so, but the gameplay changes sound very interesting, and I'm looking...

Don't worry about health but of course build soma distilleries etc. Just make some good troops, take some capitals, and make sure to keep advancing whatever affinity you are going for so you can keep ahead on upgrades.

Article about it on IGN: http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/03/15/introducing-civilization-v-brave-new-world And more details at Blues News (site is down at the moment of posting this though :( )...

Afaik you have to go into the multiplayer menu to load the game. My wife and I play tons on LAN, never had this problem, so I'm guessing you are trying to load the game from the main menu, which is more or less "single player." When I load the game, she can join right in by browsing LAN games.

Is there any hope this will ever get fixed? Any threads monitoring the potential development?

Just install Steam and update the game. Really, it's not that bad, and I'm sure it's capitalist-friendly :) That said, maybe a standalone patch will never be released, since it pretty much says on the box you need a Steam connection to install/use the game. Maybe it will and you get lucky...

And that thread was actually updated a few hours ago! Still nothing about multiplayer either... Greg says this: No, the focus of this patch is AI and Diplomacy. If any multiplayer changes end up making it in, you'll see it in future changelist updates, but until that happens (if it...

Hey everyone, I was looking for the proper place to post this and if there was already a discussion, but CivFanatics is so large I can't pin it down :) Anyway, I play mostly multiplayer and am annoyed at the lack of support for it. Back in the beginning of October, someone mentioned Firaxis...

Hehe no problem, glad you got it working :)

Sounds awesome NiRv4n4 :D

The musketman is not a ranged unit. It has combat strength 16 only.

This maps looks great! One question though - how do I run it in a reasonable time? The AI turns are taking forever for me on simply a standard map and I dread a map this size and with all those AI city states. Will running it all in DX9 or something help out?

In the game I played yesterday I had five cities, and only one of them was a puppet. It built REALLY fast, and before I won the game with a cultural victory, it had recently built the Apollo Program :) So at least they make wonders if they want to. I won the game two rounds later, and never...

I'm sorry you are having those issues. I can only speak for myself that everything has been pretty smooth in MP (and can see others posting the same too).

ButSam is right, but the bad financial times aren't helping matters either. These large publicly traded company's need bottom line now, and aren't always good at building long-term customer loyalty when it's their jobs at stake right there and then.

Nice article, though all the comparisons to Civ4 made me think that you just wanted a new Civ4 :) Firaxis has always stated with the Civ franchise, that they put in 1/3 of the same, 1/3 improved/altered, and 1/3 new stuff in each iteration of Civilization. I think that's what happened in Civ5...

At the moment, no chance. The largest currently possible is 120 x 80 hexes in the mapmaker.
