Well due to the mortality rate of Sean's characters I doubt he'll make it through the game. Stewart is a great choice and might be a good way to honor dear departed Spock, Anthony Hopkins might be a good choice too. The holy grail of narrators though has to be Morgan Freeman!

I admit I still do miss the thrill of opening the box and finding everything that's been put int here (hell I think that's half the appeal of lootcrate) but this a new age. At least I'll be able to tell my great nieces and nephews about how cool old computer games used to be before they had...

The game loads normally through the starting video, when I played on DX10 the audio cut out on the loading screen and the game crashed. When I played on DX9 I got the loading screen for Brazil before the audio began to stutter followed by a black screen requiring a hard reboot. I'm trying to...

I'll give this a try, these are off the top of my head more or less so tweaking would be necessary on the off chance someone from Firaxis reads this.

Venice was an amazing step forward for Civ V in terms of unique play styles. I was wondering if anyone had ideas for other civs like that. What civ would it be, why and how would it play out in terms of game play. A few ideas I have: Nomads: A civ that doesn't found permanent cities...

Has anyone ever really proven that Israel is being kept out because of Middle East sales? If that is the case then I worry that naming it something else won't help the matter. I really hope its some kind of oversight rather than politics.

A fine idea, it would be amazing if that could be combined with ethnic units so you'd see how a legion might look if it were in the amazon!

I thought I was the only one who loved that. I love seeing what my population is in real numbers not 2 city population points and 45 hexes. I want to see 300,000 people living in x square miles maybe even the value of your currency. Then again I'm a bit of a nerd lol

Numbers are a huge weakness of mine so if it makes since to lower or raise the specific values of bounuses feel free to tell me Scotland Leader: Robert De Bruce Ability Flower of Scotland: Double unhappiness for cities conquered by other players. Unique Units: Highland Pikeman: Replaces...

Hmm maybe, I've always seen Civ as a more macro level game though I think Canals are more important on paradox style games. One problem might be that if canals are implemented they might be spammed negating their importance. Still that would be cool especially if you could sell access to two...

I think its nearly unambitious that the graphics need to be improved. I hadn't seen the screen shots when I wrote that, I only went off the press release, so they did answer a few of my questions. Religion is what worries me though (and was my main purpose for bringing up the recent gaming...

Maybe they're going for an early total war theme, ie you're the king looking down a scale model of your empire. I hope not I preferred the realism of Civ V/

OK so now that I get this wonderful amazing news I'm going to write down my thoughts on what we know so far, as if anyone cares, feel free to let me know if I'm on target or full of beans. 1. Expansive Empires: You mean I won't have to cram the city of Mubia into one tile? Madness! This...

I have an idea for a scenario but I am planning on using that idea for a story I plan to write. My knowledge of copyright law and IP is limited but would I be ok to create a scenario based on my story and not worry about people stealing the idea? Not that I don't trust you guys but I'm...
