When the AI wins in CiV, it only wins 'by accident'. The AI's don't play to win, they only play to make the player's life as miserable as possible. °dA

Check that you aren't in offline mode. Check that you have 'Automatically keep this game up to date' set. (posting just to make the effing 'it appears that you have not posted on our forums in several weeks' message disappear) °dA

Way to revive a months old troll thread. Seriously, as delicious as the haters' tears are, stale threads like this are just a waste of space. (posting just to get the stupid 'it appears that you have not posted on our forums in several weeks' message to disappear) °dA If you have a problem...

And you know why? Because it WORKS. °dA

Perhaps because they don't plan on doing anything? They have your money. CiV's still on Steam's best-selling list People will buy Civ 6 or a Civ 5 expansion no matter what. Every patch they released lead to more whining instead of less. So, why should they care again? °dA, happily...

As much as I like CiV so far and as much as it pains me to do so, I'm tempted to say 'and good riddance'. Also, while I won't engage in any fired/chickened out/simply quit/whatever speculations, I'd still like to express my vexation over his departure happening at a very, very inopportune time...

Don't know how and why the evaluation routine breaks when calculating city distances across the sea, and if it breaks at all. I only know it's happened since at least Civ4. °dA

Patch is now live on Steam °dA

I sincerely hope the Devs won't cave to the legion of naysayers who want Civ5 turned into Civ4½. I mean, a plethora of twenty-page threads full of 'U SUK!!1', all the while the people who like Civ5 don't say nothing because they're busy actually playing the game is bound to create a very biased...

Even better, there's a setting in options where tile yields only display for Settlers and Workers, which is not nearly as intrusive as having them constantly enabled. °dA

Seeing that building TP's in forests an jungles doesn't clear said feature, this behaviour may be intended. Thanks for the heads up though. °dA

Depends on the circumstances. A food-heavy monster coldn't care less about 2 food, but that tundra city you just founded near the single iron mine on the whole continent wouldn't mind having something- no, anything to eat... °dA

That was the case in 4 and BtS but in CiV the AI seems to play Prince difficulty. GlobalDefines.xml <Row Name="BARBARIAN_HANDICAP"> <Key>HANDICAP_CHIEFTAIN</Key> <Table>HandicapInfos</Table> </Row> <Row Name="MINOR_CIV_HANDICAP"> <Key>HANDICAP_PRINCE</Key>...

About 28ish with Ghandi in a food-heavy spot. Could have been in the mid-thirties had I remembered the 'manual specialist control' button earlier :facepalm: °dA (Wha? No :facepalm: smilie? Seriously?!)
