Sunday's PAX talk (with summary of the info)

[nokmirt]

Yes! There is definitely sea turtles I just saw it move four flippers.

 

[fat_tonle]

They may as well bring back rice and corn and clams at this point... along with Health/pollution... with all these new resources.

Kinda disappointed with no new strategic resources thus far. Saltpeter would have been good among others.

 

[sukritact]

So do we crabs, turtles or both?

And why no rice?

 

[Bonci]

Atlatl!

UU for the mayas

 

[Seek]

If you look in the Austro-Carthaginian war, an Austrian swordsmen heals 50 damage - I think this is instaheal, doesn't heal everything now

Nice catch!

 

[Pouakai]

The "Turtles" resource in the Hunnic game said Crabs.

 

[Bonci]

also the UA is related to mayan calendar and 2012...

 

[Jalkaa]

Mayan UU: Atlatl (Spear-thrower). Says 2k Greg.

 

[Rob (R8XFT)]

Atlatl!

UU for the mayas

Is that what Greg came on to say? I quickly nipped out of the room and then came back in again to him saying, "That's what I came on to say..." Typical!!

 

[Gucumatz]

Getting nervous. I hope it isn't a time related victory thing. I understand most people were joking but would be annoyed if that was part of the real UA

exactly...he said that they want to keep the UA secret for the moment because it's really cool.

EDIT: it's from when it started that i keep the stream in the background and switch to it whenever i hear 2KGreg's voice XDD

 

[snipperrabbit!!]

combat strength of fighter is 45 now instead of 40.

 

[Pouakai]

I bet the Mayan UA is called "Calendar" and is "If Maya is ahead in score, the game ends in 2012"

i'm not familar with the length of each Mayan Calendar "cycle" but perhaps it's to do with a some sort of bonus you get at the start/end of each one?

We were actually guessing at that in the Guess the UA thread here. A couple of cool ideas floated around with it.

Like shifting cultural/religious/science bonuses every so many turns to try and copy baktuns or one of the other calenders.

Unfortunately, I always disable time victories!

The UA's really piqued my curiosity though

 

[Gucumatz]

Someone just asked what the last civ was on the stream!!!!

And it is!!! According to Greg...

" Haha you're not learning the last civ that easily" They are witholding it from us on purpose

 

[Deggial]

combat strength of fighter is 45 now instead of 40.

Yes .

 

[Pouakai]

They will be revealing it, according to Greg, "Sometime before June 19". Someone be trolling XD

EDIT: He also said he's almost positive Shepard is returning to do the quotes

 

[sukritact]

I propose kidnap and torture til we find out!

Hope it's Southeast Asian...
