Wow - so the facebook and social media comments were all orchestrated by the Mail and Telegraph? Your post reeks of bitterness, and its the perpetuation of your myths that will be the real legacy of Salmond's vanity project. Good news is he's on his way out. I'm a proud Scot and proud too of...

Well done Kael, great news.

I like the Epic game speed overall, but to make it last slightly longer, I change the research value from 150 to 180 in the game files. This has the effect that every Technology is (just over) 25% more expensive to research. The benefit of this is that units don't obsolete quite as quickly...

Epic with the research costs tweaked in xml to last 25% longer suits me just fine.

Good news all round.

Satanism :satan:

I'd also like to see a progression in the abilities of spies. For example, a "Poison the water supply" type mission, which, if successful, would result in a city only growing at say, 50% the previous speed for a set amount of turns. For example, my Celtic city of Cardiff currently has a...

Whole-heartedly agree Gatsby. My worries from this thread , almost two years ago, prior to relase of ciV:

It was a deliberate design choice by the developers to create an AI which 'knew' it was an AI in a game setting; and that their goal was to win the game. This is a change from the previous incarnation and would whole-heartedly recommend you purchase Civ 4 Complete if/when cheap on Steam. It is...

Pre-Ordered . . . from Amazon.co.uk for £12.99/US$20.10. Hopefully it will right the wrongs and entertain me into the next decade like cIV did previously.

Sorry I have no mod to advise you of but would like to try one myself so you're not alone!

Won't be popular, but: Transports. Apparently the main reasoning behind 'embarkation' was to make naval invasions easier for the AI and help it deal better with the naval aspect overall. Decide for yourselves if it worked.

Hi Tokala, yeah I was thinking the Lenovo was the better system, but couldn't see why the Toshiba was £120 more expensive and thought maybe I was missing something. Thanks for the confirmation. Just hope they don't go out of stock or up in price between now and xmas :religion: Cheers.

Hi folks, looking at buying a new laptop after xmas, and seeing as ciV will almost certainly be the most 'system intensive' program that it will run, I'm wondering what the forum thinks of the two laptops I have narrowed it down to. Chances are I'll be buying from Amazon as I expect I'll be...

I dislike Steam, and have been using it since it's inception (when my love for Counter Strike left me no choice) so to call someone an idiot for having reservations about it is completely unnecessary. Nevermind the fact there are other points in the post you could have commented on, but chose...

A good while yet.

@ Zonk - I'm with you in that minority - it's another example of Civ being oversimplified, and to those who advocated for it to make it 'easier' for the AI to understand, did it? I have yet to be convinced.

How do I rate it after 4 weeks? Same as I rated it after 2, because I haven't played it since. D - Below Par.

:goodjob: Kudos to the creator and also to the OP for bring it to CivFanatics. :goodjob:
