LOL Civ V for concle ( spelling fail =P )

hear me out Civ Rev is getting dull, its the same pattern every game with the AI. In standard mode, at any level (but, Deity); The beginning you explore settle, etc then all the AI hate you making stupid demands since they are stupid people; no I will not give you masonry; then you kick their stupid legions off of your yard (inside your borders.) While getting stronger since they never get any of your cities (The only time I love archers) then you so far ahead in the tech and production you can kill every one of them. You kill one then the rest hide and make peace. So you can just pick them off. At this point you can basicially win at any victory condition. we don't get the kind of freedom you guys get. the moding, the attention & ofcourse the constant DLCs. while you guys sit in the golden age with all of 2K itself me & my people starve. by throwing us this 1 bone you could occupy this entire gaming community for years. im leading the CivRev fraction for change will you help?

If you think CivRev was too simple, don't downgrade a PC game to console. Upgrade to a PC or quickly change your tastes in gaming.

Where's the answer "I don't care about consoles"?

Anyway, Firaxis' producer of Civ5 has ruled out that Civ5 would come to the consoles. See the interview here. Excerpt:

Quote:
Question: Will Civ V ever come to consoles?

Dennis Shirk: The thing is, Civ V is a big sloppy kiss/love letter to our fan community. We want it to be for the hardcore. We want to make it as accessible as possible, but Civ Rev kind of took care of that route. It’s for the people who want the kind of Civ-lite [experience]. Civ V is for hardcore PC. We’re PC game makers for the most part, and like I said, we’ve gone into the console market for some stuff, but we’re gonna make PC games first for a long time.

Question: So you’re ruling out a console version of Civ V?

Dennis Shirk: Civ V? Yes, definitely.
So if you want Civ5 on the console, don't hold your breath. On the other hand, Shirk's statements in this interview haven't been especially reliable either, so who knows ... (I still wonder what he meant with Civ5 being a "big sloppy kiss for the fans". Currently I'd rather say they're kissing us goodbye ... )

I don't share the console hate / arrogance that some PC gamers do - I'm just a guy who likes playing games. I don't belong to some bizarre tribe where we make war on anyone who doesn't play games the way WE play games; I play games on both consoles and on my PC. Historically, I felt that action and driving games (for example) were often better on consoles and strategy games and RPGs (for example) were often better on a PC. That distinction is certainly blurred nowadays, so it's plausible that Civ5 could be adapted into a console version. I don't think it'd make for a very good port myself, and I wouldn't play it on a console, but frankly I think we're more likely to see Civ5: Console Edition than we are to see Civ Rev 2.

I hope they wait first, and after the game has been tested with PC gamers and mostly fixed they will release upgraded console versions.

civ5 is already more consolish than not, so might as well play it on PC and pretend it's for consoles.

UI first, other things later. If the UI is still broken on PC (and it most certainly is), then the thought of a console port is the stuff of Halloween nightmares, and it's after Halloween.

The biggest problem is that the moment a Civ game (this one or future Civs) is put on console it will change the core system. All subsequent games in the franchise will be aimed at the console interface and the demands of console users.

RTS or TBS + Console = x / 0

Without a mouse, these types of games are too clunky to navigate through.

Or you end up with a UI krapfest like FFXIV.
