Haven't tried yet, but thanks for the link!

I have a similar question so I want to piggyback on your post. It seems to me that the camera FOV is pretty jacked up in 21:9. I forgot to take a screenshot before I left but the trapezoid on the min-map is much wider at the top and narrower on the bottom than the screenshots I'm seeing of 16:9...

So my plan now is to sell the code from the my Anniversary Edition to a friend on Tuesday (for the price of the normal version) and buy the Digital Deluxe version now, so I can play it this weekend. As far as I know, the codes should redeem the exact same content, I just want to make sure I...

I just talked with Amazon again. Transcript below:

I chatted with Amazon about my pre-order yesterday. I was trying to figure out if it would ship before Friday, on Friday, or sometime after. I understand that normally, physical pre-orders from Amazon ship early to arrive on the release date but I haven't pre-ordered from Amazon before because...

I bet this is a mistake. Such things are not unheard of for Steam sales. Take advantage of it while you can. I just bought two more copies as gifts for friends that didn't order though GMG and won't be at their computers soon enough to take advantage of this - the punks!

Finished my first game last night. Played as Indonesia, Archipelago, Standard, King. Started slow, didn't think it would go well because I was lagging behind badly for the first 100 turns or so. Siam was a 3 city beast with Poland and Greece up there as well. Siam had about 8 wonders to my 0...

This is along a similar vein but I've had it in two games now where I save the game with some number of positive happiness and when I load it to continue my happiness is tanked at some large negative number. I'm using the Steam cloud save BTW. Similar to this post. Until this is fixed I can't...

Yeah, 23MB here... http://forums.2kgames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=97009 Edit: Tested and confirmed that my pre-10.0.0.62 game as Lizzy loads correctly now. Phew! :)

I have a fairly humble Q6600 (quad 2.4Ghz) and 4GB of RAM. My video card is a not so humble 2GB 5870.

The leader head "fix" I found is to go into the GraphicsSettingsDX11.ini (or DX9) and change this line from 1.7776 to how it is below (modified for your exact ratio of course)... Seems to be the way others are doing it as well. Of course this just gives you and nice wide zoomed in view of...

I'm liking the game speed so far, just on standard. In CivIV I finally just got used to playing games in a matter of 3 or 4 hours but I really preferred longer engagements like I remember from II and III (of course time makes things foggy). Civ5 seems to put things back on track where there is...

Love the game so far, but I clicked this thread because it the closest to what I was thinking of saying - I think it's contrast that is missing, the pallet isn't as colorful as it used to be. It's funny that in CivIV I actually didn't use Blue Marble - but with Civ5 I'm hoping that something...

I can post the file later but specs are pretty ordinary. Win7x64, 4GB, 2GB 5870, Q6600, 120GB SSD Glad to hear I'm not the only one with this issue so far, mostly what I was trying to confirm.

The sound works, just no video (all black). The game works fine, love it. DX9 vs DX11 doesn't make a difference. Full screen vs. windowed doesn't either.
