    Fallen Enchantress

    No, he wasn't. It was Alex Mantzaris. Shafer was co-lead designer. And no, it's not the same thing. About FE: Sorry, but I have to either play it through demo or watch at least 2 hours of gameplay vid to have some hope about the game. I love Derek's work in FFH, but seeing how Brad Wardell...

    CivFanatics turn based strategy/4X Preview 2012

    To better ilustrate to you the concept of the style, a teaser of Frozen Synapse: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lQQt4qc79Q Frozen Synapse is a very addictive game, you should try it out if you like the genre :king: It's great for casual gaming and multiplayer.

    CivFanatics turn based strategy/4X Preview 2012

    What you mean The_J, it's the "Plan & Go" system (better know as "We Go", but to me there are some differences), the same system used for Frozen Synaptics: you give all the commands for everybody that turn and then unleash the action. It's waaaaaay better than the "each unit get his turn"...

    New Hotfix Up (july, 12th)

    Yes, it's broken. The definition of a broken game is not "when you can't play the game". We can play this game, but its mechanics makes no sense. Nothing fits together. It's just a bunch of good ideas badly delivered and implemented. It's not the gameplay, it's the fact that it doesn't have...

    New Hotfix Up (july, 12th)

    It's funny. It has been almost a year of people guessing that "the next large patch will address some of the [insert any gameplay aspect here] issues". Personally, I'm done guessing. They will never fix this game.

    CivWorld is now Open Beta, no invites needed

    I can't wait... to see this game failing miserably.

    IGN: CivWorld "will redefine social gaming."

    I would rather pay to get Sid Meier involved with the real game of the franchise (that definitly needs him back), instead of this pathetic excuse of a "game" that looks more like a really bad joke.

    Another joke in the form of a DLC arrives. Does people actually buy this kind of ****?

    New Civ V Patch Upcoming

    Very appreciated and positive notes in what they released so far, like all the patches released before this. And like all the patches released before this, check out this and official 2k forums about people mad of how things work different than desired or promised, or simply not working at all...

    How Can an AI Become an Ally With a CS (so fast)?

    LOL people, the most probable cause is early finding the CS (I had cases where I've found them in first turn) and receiving the "kill those barbarians" mission (they give this mission every time a barb camp is near them), and accomplish it without any difficulties (does anyone have trouble...

    Nobles' Club: what map options to use by default?

    I think it's safe to say that this is the only topic that will remain opened even though it will completely degrade to an off-topic theme :) Contratz to CFC for the epic mark!

    Civ 5 won a BAFTA award - is it deserved?

    This is a very good point, but I don't think it's quite right. In terms of game genre I think there is a competition, yes. In theory, economically speaking, games of the same genre appeal for the same people and giving that people has limited resources, they will buy the one (or two?) that...

    Civ 5 won a BAFTA award - is it deserved?

    Hey guys, I'm surprised I didn't see this posted here, since Greg usually post this kind of stuff in all forums related to Civ 5. The game won a Video Game BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) Award in the category "Strategy"...
