I too have this issue with maps when "load as scenario" is checked, no barbs spawn.

Actually I think it is fairly realistic to have tourism come late for wonders. It may be true the wealthy visited great wonders long ago, but for the average person that didn't start till the industrial revolution. That is when we started to have a middle class and when people got more "leisure...

Is it possible to make workers automate roads in all tiles? I have a mod to turn off road maintenance and I would like to have my workers automate roads in every tile, but right now if every city is connected by road/rail and all improvements are done, they will just sit in the city. Then I have...

Well as the posted above has said that poll means nothing. It is a small sample of a certain fan base that is biased toward one answer. It doesnt even include everyone in the community. I never voted and Im sure Im not the only one. You underline the word FACT but you actually offer none. As...

I dont understand how you can be disappointed by those numbers. Right now Civ 5 is back up to 4th most play game on steam. Only 10000 players behind just the counter strikes and COD black ops which they also require steam to play. I would be willing to bet money that the majority of people...

Its not gut feelings, those numbers are actual stats that Valve uses. Just as its opt-in Hardware survey stats are. Not everyone sends in their info but is gives a general sample. You can bring in all the "what if" scenarios you want, but to say that those numbers have no statistical value is...

And you know what?? You dont need the internet to play single player. Activate the game once and put it offline mode. I cant believe how many times this has to be repeated. I was without the internet for over 4 months and could play any game. Stop spreading false information.

Those numbers are not meaningless. They do give a general sample of how many people are playing games. I would say that 95% of users are online when they play. But the OP is just silly. Every game is going to decline after time, especially one that is mainly single player. Im sure they have...

On the same vein of not accepting peace when they are almost defeated, the AI also gives unreasonable demands for peace when it may have a slight advantage. I have had many wars where I defend perfectly with no loses and decimate their attacking army yet when they bring me an offer of peace they...

You realize that it is still in the top 10 of all games played on Steam. That list expands to 100. To be 8th in the most played game is amazing stat.

Ya he should have put instructions. :) Steam\steamapps\common\sid meier's civilization v\Resource\DX9 AND you have to delete the (grey) from the file name so it looks like this, roadsandrails_d.dds

Which is why I suggested my idea, where it would happen automatically. I dont want to have to manually send caravans everywhere, I like to play on the largest maps. Is that not the whole point? I want a food specialist city to spread around and maximize its value.

Looks good cant wait

Thats why I said numbers would have to be tweaked. I just used those for easy math. I was also thinking about maritime city states. Maybe a city would have to have a minimum number of food it generates before it shares with the empire. That way you kinda of have your own maritime city states...

Graphics bad in Civ4?? I find a lot of the graphics are actually much better. Rivers, roads, railways, tradepost/cottage, jungle all look better to me in Civ4. Even the terrain is not that much different and I am running DX11 on an ATI 5970 at maxed settings. But I do like Civ5, with a few...
