So, you begin a meal at a restaurant, and suddenly there are things missing from your order and things taste strange. Oh, don't think of it as what it we SAID it was. It isn't food or pleasure. I'ts just a "proof of concept"

Civ 4 Beyond the Sword. Afterworld scenario. I want, very much, to like it. Could someone involved in creating it please reply: 1. Is the game totally broken and buggy to the point that it is unplayable? That is very much how it seems. If so, why would Sid Meier even allow it to be included...

I have played maps that are mostly islands. I don't do this any more, because I find it impossible to build both an army and a navy. I have tried the micromanagement of moving the little circles around cities, but don't understand what, if anything, this achieves really. I have NOT tried the...

Thank you, that's a lot to take in. I'm sorry, but you can't just assume everyone is going to know what GPT stands for. Ok, it is somewhat of a relief to have confirmed my deep angry suspicion that the AI cheats. now.....HOW DO I PERMANENTLY TURN OFF THE AI CHEATING ABILITY? Again. No idea...

Thank you. I can only repeat: small maps, and the game is over in five turns. I get spammed. It is impossible to play unless I am given TIME To build up and ROOM to go grab the Horses and Iron. Cannot play, much less win, on anything but top two sizes. Mathematically impossible to survive...

People WOULDN"T have to pay full price for a version of Civ Four that fixes all it's flaws, since all that is needed is software tweaks. Like buying new tires instead of a whole new car.

A lot of presumption there that the reader will understand all those acronyms. Still does not make any sense. If you do nothing but make the graphics more pretty, you automatically Block Out thouands of potential sales of people who: 1. Cannot afford to upgrade their computer; 2. Care about...

Something I can't quite understand....... Software, game or otherwise, comes out. It has pros and cons. It is around for a while, so the producers KNOW what specific flaws it has, and they KNOW what people like and what they want changed. So......the LOGIC says, you take the existing...

I don't remember them from Alpha. Mechs, GIANT robot figting tanks. check out Call to Power, it's cool except for the turn limit.

I've played Civ 4 for many years, thousands of times. I'm not sure why I keep coming back. I've never won above Chieftan level. Sometimes I think I am winning at Warlord level, then suddenly lose. Things I cannot understand, and might be my imagination: 1. When an AI offers a trade deal...

Are there any Civ games that include Mechs? I seem to recall that there was a game extremely similar to Civ. I think it was named "Call to Power 2" This ended up in a period of history where you could build mechs. If I recall correctly the very interesting abilities of these mechs were...

Played the game on Win7 and now Win10 machine. Both do the same thing: There is some kind of popup window showing stats of a unit. This goes away normally when you move the mouse. Yet in every game there comes a time when one of these popup windows will STICK and not minimize no matter what...

I originally played Civ 4 BTS on a Hewlett Packard p6710f. I then purchased the computer below, and downloaded the Steam Civ 4 to the new computer. Shinobee SSD Ultra 8-Core Gaming PC/Multimedia Desktop Computer - FX 8300 8 x 4.20 GHz - AMD Radeon RX 460 2GB DDR5 Graphics - 8GB DDR3-240GB SSD...
