I played giant/gigantic on RoM-AND maps with my laptop until the future era and its specs are worse than yours (though not a lot worse I think). Now the turn wait times could be just exhausting (though great for doing some reading I kept putting off) and an occasional memory crash was an ordinary part of play, but it worked. The only new thing is the mass of civs. But I think it will work fine if one turns off vassels and turns on aggressive AI's. If that does not do the trick, turning off revolution and only using static leaderheads (the animated ones are a huge drain on graphic memory) should.45°38'N-13°47'E;10326368 said:Huge maps shouldn't be a problem at all; I played a game with my wife with 32civs on a huge map up to the modern era almost without any issues. As for giant/gigantic maps with more than 32 civs, well, I don't know if anyone ever made it to the modern or future era. My pc is pretty old now but it's more than enough to play CIV4: quadcore q9450 @2.66 Ghz, 4 GB Ram, Win7 64 bit and 1GB video ram. The problem as I said is probably in the engine of civ4 which is an OLD game. Ho
As for the release date from now on I stick to Blizzard's philosophy - it's done when it's done
