Recently, I've run into an issue with this game. It's not at the end of the game; it's not even midway through the game. It's at the very beginning of the game.
I'll start a game on a large map. But 5 to 10 turns I'll see another civilization. Isn't this a large map? Why is everybody getting spawned right next to me on a large map?
But the AI spawning right next to me isn't an issue. The real issue is how the AI plays. While you're building wonders and stuff, the AI will try to pop a city right next to you. If you get spawned right next to someone; say goodbye to rushing any early wonders.
This has become a huge issue for me. I like to rush early wonders and expand a little later. But I can't do that when the AI is right next to me and popping cities right next to my capital.
And this is on a large map; not a standard or small map, on a large map.
Worse is when you get started by a super aggressive Civ like Montezuma or Genghis Khan. You just cannot build early wonders. You just can't build early wonders and fight off their large swarms on units.
Rarely do I get spawned somewhere where I have space to expand.
Should I just start playing huge maps? Because everytime I play large maps, every civ seems to get spawned right next to me.
