    An update from Firaxis Games regarding Beyond Earth feedback

    Well, I don't mind trade routes at all. I think it is fine to have it stop so it can be changed if wanting to during the game. I did ask if they could include an Apollo 13 level where the AI immediately declares war on the human that slipped through the Chosen Process because instead of...

    An update from Firaxis Games regarding Beyond Earth feedback

    Now all they need is a "No Advisor" button and also the "Reset Advisor" button in the game play options in the game. I really do not think some people are looking at the game so far. (as far as what is on the Interface). Oops, there is already that drop down list for the Advisor in the game...

    Metacritic - average player's rating. Civ4, COL, Civ5, BNW, BE

    Ya, know, now that the SDK can be downloaded for BE, and all the negativity about the game, and still with multi-player, you think you Great Leaders of a new clvilization and new history on a new planet would be duking it out with that and wowing the rest of us in your videos or scores. But...

    Buy "Civ: Beyond Earth" NOW or WAIT for Expansions / Fixes?

    I like it okay. Some of the things mentioned. Some people having problems seeing the game. Others missing things in the game. So far I have the Full Advsor on, and I "Esc" key out of it when I have to, because there is no get rid of it when I do not want it, ya know. The list of buildings seems...

    Block Steam with windows firewall

    Well, golly geewiz there, yuck, yuck, yuck, Hodad spacealien: If Developers and Community Managers visit the place (what community - oh Civ, I guess of course) here is a novel idea: Forget the opening movies, pay Firaxis more with the programmers and just come out with the game. (big...

    Civilization 5 Steamworks questions/concerns for inclusion in the FAQ

    Ya, the decision has not been made. Of course I have another couple of games to download the patch to (slow connection) but they are small. I probably could opt out of Impulse sending me e-mail after e-mail about this or that game which I just don't have to for and is a nusance to say the least...

    Announcing Civilization Network for Facebook!

    It won't be for me. Personally it sounds like some big city project, and that may just be something I do not care about anymore. If no computer games, then there are other things to do. And lately, there ain't much to some computer games anymore, and people stating the game for $60 should not be...

    Firaxis Executive Producer Caudill on "Sid's Way"

    I thought Sid was a computer back from the days of programming in machine language the 6502, or was that the 8088, 8086 processors back in the days of the orginal Pirates! or was that F-15 Fighter or whatever the heck that game was, which I may still find around here. It was when Civ II came out...

    The Old Black Map Problem

    I bought a new graphics card. The drivers that came with it were not really old, but on one game, the graphics were all messed up - black and white and basically not right, when my old graphic card was playing the game fine. It was not Colonization, but I downloaded a slightly newer version of...

    Quick way to create soldiers?

    You just need Grannies in your militia. Don't need no training. If they hit you they cause you punishment, and if they don't then I guess you got out of the way. Granny Smith for President. :lol:

    My analysys

    The game can be modded so get to work. I can not believe what some people complain about with a game. The game varies within the game so have at it.

    No female leaders

    Go home and make your candles then. Sweep the floor of the cabin and do the laundry. Geeze! And help carry that fire wood into the house and light the fire. :lol:

    Western Hemisphere map

    It takes two more turns to get to Europe from the left side of the map (two turns extra) than the right side of the map. One thing you will find out, is that it is a very very huge map. I think too huge, as I rather play the Standard Size map for that Scenario. Perhaps a large map will be added...

    Still no portuguese patch ?

    Are you a spacealien or something? It's a game and it is a computer game to play. Leave the historical facts in the history books and just play the darn game.

    Should I buy it?

    The game can also be played that way, but if you saw the map you would realize that to fight everyone (Indians mainly) that you may not have the means to do that early. In fact by the time you do have the means, then you would have to probably declare Indenpendence from Europe (one of the Kings)...

    Natives don't care about what they want

    Consider that you are perhaps getting money when you visit their village with your scouts and free-be resources all the time from different ones. All in all, some Indian villages pay more than others. Have you not found the ones that give you beads with like 2000 gold coins when visited by your...

    I just bought this game... one question though please...

    They can go anywhere inside of the city, but will work better where their Expert (ness) or Master (ness) is used along with better buildings being built in the settlement. For food, lumber, iron ore, silver, fishing, the right side of the town and the slots. The left side (white sort of part...

    Should I buy it?

    I did not play the original one so I guess it is different. You can read that by looking at some other threads. I don't think it is too bad, but then I have not played it enough yet, perhaps. The game can be modded just like Civ IV since it is of the same design and all of that, so perhaps that...

    Massive Slowdowns late game, memleak galore?

    Have you tried changing the CivilizationIV.ini file in the folder for Colonization? You can change frame rate and keep it at a max like 30 instead of the value 0 which means no max frame rate? I changed mine, my video card is okay but it is not the best one. Have you changed the graphics off...
