The GeForce FX5200 was the worst model of one of the worst lines of graphics cards ever released, I wouldn't count on it running any modern game. I also do not recommend upgrading anything, you will be paying a large premium for hardware thats been obsolete for several generations (especially...

The 5 GB size figure for Portal may include shared assets with Half-Life 2 or other Source engine games. So if Shurdus already had another Source engine game installed, Steam would not be downloading the full 5 GBs as part of it is already present on the hard drive. Personally I have a 10...

While the people who develop cheats and cracked versions of games are technologically savvy, the people who use them are quite often not. Combined with the fact that VAC bans are delayed, this leads to rampant misinformation, baseless rumors, and unfounded paranoia being the norm in most...

Just to clarify, theres different types of "hacking": Cheating and Piracy. The most common is cheating to gain an advantage in an online game (aimbots/wallhacks/ect), and does not result in your account being disabled. If you play on a VAC enabled server and are caught using a cheat, then VAC...

In my opinion, a number of factors were responsible for giving Vista such a bad launch. Probably the biggest of them was that computer manufacturers were installing Vista on hardware that had no business running it, and as a result most Vista systems sold for the first year or two had half the...

Thanks!

How do I move all units on a tile? I used to know but I havent played for a while and now I cant remember.

Does future tech actually do anything? Does it give you new units or city improvements? I was on FT3 and I hadent noticed any changes.

Is there any way to get AI civs to declare war on you when you want them to? So I dont have to make the first move.

I'm going to have to say that finding islands is out of the question, the AI seems to gobble those up fast, and if they're in the industrial age, from my experence they are probably done expanding, and all the land on the map is claimed.

I found artilery handy for city defense, but I havent really be sucessfull in using them in attacks. Probably because I cant really think of an ocasion where I've used more than 10 artilery at a specific place. I'll have to try out using them in higher numbers.

I started playing as the Greeks and sence then I've found the warrior to be quite useless for me. Warriors only upgrade into swordsmen, then swordsmen dont upgrade any further. Although they take longer to build, Hoplites are better at defense and can upgrade up eventually into mech infantry...

Another question: When you get a leader, how do you get him to form an army? I've only managed to get a leader once, and couldnt figure out how to form one. And any tricks of the trade to geting leaders?

I'm not sure if it was just a bug, but in one game I played I totally wiped out the Romans , but there were still romans in the cities I've taken over telling me to stop the agression against their motherland. I've wiped out another civ a few tiems in the past, but never paid much attention...

Well I just played another game and did better. I didnt have the population problems. I think it might have been having towns too close together and having them overlap, sence about the only specific thing I can think of that I changed in that game was trying to space them out more. I'm...
