They should have been more conservative. Civ 5 should have been a tweaked version of Civ 4, building upon it, changing the weak aspects of it. leaving the good ones, improving the UI and graphics. Instead they tried to radically change it from the bottom up.
That sounds dangerously like an expansion not a new version of the game, which was exactly the problem facing Firaxis at the time. It was always going to be very difficult to produce a new version that was better than IV.
