Thank you kindly.

I hope you'll be able to tune in live, or at least listen to the post-produced version to be released one week later.

Now would be a good time to get back in these then, last time I listened in was when BNW copies were being offered and I promised to keep watching because I won one. I broke my promise (don't hurt me) cuz of school, I'll right my wrongs now.

To be honest I would appreciate them just acknowledging there are bugs and balance issues...then I would feel like they are atleast listening to the community.

Beyond Earth box art that was released has an 18+ rating. Does this mean we will get a chance to see Lady Deidre "dancing naked through the trees"?

Just three days away: this Saturday, PolyCast will record its 200th episode live. Questions, comments etc. including for Firaxis Games can be asked in this thread prior to recording.

To increase the likelihood that your contribution will be selected for inclusion on the show beyond what is noted in the opening post above, have it distinct from posts already made and prompt for more than a "Yes/No" or sentence-or-two answer.

I guess I'll ask the obvious question: What can we expect for additional patches/DLC/expansions for Civ 5 in the future?

(If these have already been answered, can someone point me at the interview? They seem to be popping up left and right.)

We've been told that supremacy armies are about relatively few units that are very strong and well-placed. Is the emphasis on tactical positioning an inherent part of the units (ie, due to upgrades) or simply the result of having a smaller army?

Also, any details on the combat styles of the other affinities?

DanQ · May 23, 2014

Know a special someone in your life who isn't playing the latest Civ yet? Want them to (re-)capture that "one more turn" feeling? You can by winning one of five copies of Civilization V: Complete during tomorrow's recording. Winners will receive a Steam code that they can use themselves or send on as a gift to someone else.

Courtesy CivV developer Firaxis Games, the combined value of these prizes is $250US.

DanQ · May 24, 2014

Questions for Firaxis Games not answered on PolyCast #200 will be reviewed for answering on a future episode of the show. The Firaxians were on the show for about 40 minutes, and there was a number of inquiries that there was not time to get to.

Thanks again to all who contributed and were able to listen to the recording of the show live today. The post-produced version is to be released in a week's time.
