What on Earth possessed them to region lock a turn based game so finely anyways? I could play people clear across the ocean just fine in Civ IV, now we're not supposed to play with people in other nearby cities? :crazyeye:

How you'd prefer the devs allocate their time is not the issue here. They already said they are working on it. Are you aware of just how many people are upset about this? Snoop around, there's a lot of us! I don't think they have any choice but to make this a priority if they care. That's...

I'm afraid the absent of animations isn't simply a gameplay design choice afterall or it would undoubtedly had been a serverside option or something more reasonable. http://forums.2kgames.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1136753&postcount=2 And no this isn't the same as Civ IV. This is Civ V and...

There was no actual failure in communication as you and everyone else knew very well what message was being conveyed, I'm sure of it. All I see here is an issue/argument that was utterly fabricated by your prescriptive semantic attack that was seemingly meant more as a type of ad hominem to...

Way to answer a rhetorical question. :rolleyes: Was it really that confusing for you? You seem to know exactly what was being conveyed, but you choose to nitpick on the semantics like a little troll. Get over yourself. I depend on MP, I cannot play it in its current state. I'll say it...

And here I was expecting Civ V MP to be an evolution of Civ 4. Instead we get this half-assed after thought of a MP mode. It's really quite insulting actually.

If you crashed, it's possible that the host crashed too, which killed the entire game. Just a guess. I've had a CTD in multi too caused by nothing other than civ5 according to the crash report. There's still some serious bugs I think. Multiplayer is broken as far as I am concerned...

Semantics... You get the drift though don't you? What more do you want your royal haughtiness?

And that's why they made a half-assed multiplayer mode that barely even works to overcome AI limitations. Ooops.

I like how trendy it is for people to say they like stuff when they really mean that they hate it and wished it would stop.

He's right, it's game-breaking! I actually managed to play online today and I couldn't stand it. It's BAD. Units teleporting everywhere. My units get bombarded, and I need to think like Sherlock Holmes just to figure out who hit me. Things get confusing very fast. This isn't a simple cosmetic...

If this thing is powered by Gamespy, then Gamespy has a lot to be ashamed about. The browser is absolutely pathetic!

What kind of crashes? CTD or lockup?

Welcome to the Civ V Multiplayer Beta test guys! Or I should say alpha test, because betas are usually atleast feature complete...

The multiplayer is really trashy right now, I can't believe it. Totally unfinished. Bare bones server browser. Can't tell if game is JIP or a lobby full of people struggling to ready up and launch. I want the option to have animations. I need it! The game is stale without them. First...
