    Seriously...can't install the game?

    They arent forcing you to have any software - you can choose not to buy or install the game. If you want to play the game, you have always had to install some software. Its just that nowadays the software includes an anti piracy package due to huge amounts of piracy in PC games. I'm not a...

    Is anyone successfully playing the game yet?

    Steam seems to be doing rolling times for the release date. I was able to play the game for about 5 minutes 2 hours ago before I had to go to work (and I bought the game from Steam). Maybe its releated to teh version you bought - I paid the extra $10, so maybe they let us do our thing earlier.

    Babylon Info

    Hmm, I really like the unique ability. I dont really have a feel for how good the Bowman will be since I havent actually played the game yet, so who knows how strong ranged attacks will be. It sure looks good on paper though. Walls never excite me, but maybe defensive play will be more...

    Brad Wardell is to become modder of Civ5

    Huh? MoO2 was quite good. Probably not as good as the original, but it was well received by both critics and fans. You are probably thinking of MoO3. That was an unmitigated disaster.

    Hereditary Rule - do you use it much?

    You might be able to get stone 50% of the time on your second city, but that means that you are probably going to be giving up bronze/iron and horses, making it a questionable decision.

    Hereditary Rule - do you use it much?

    HR is kind of important for many whipping strategies. Unless you are playing a leader with a very specific trait, its hard to get Pyramids consistently on high levles. If you only play leaders that are capable of getting Pyramids, thats nice, but most leaders cant consistently (at least not...

    Patch this --immediately!

    There are multiple simple ways to get around or fix the bug. You can spend less than 5 minutes fixing it, or play on standard settings instead of marathon. Since there are two absurdly easy workarounds, yes, claiming that the game is completely broken, unplayable, and a waste of $30 is being a...

    Patch this --immediately!

    The game is 100% playable if you chose the right settings. Dont be drama queens. Yes, its mildly annoying that you will probably have to go a week and a half playing at normal speed only, but I'm sure that you can live with it. Just set it to normal in the time being, and I'm sure that they...

    Space Race

    Elevator is good if used correctly. The key is, of course, to jump to robotics early in the space race and then go back and pick up the SS parts. Build the elevator while you are doing the research and then you can whip out the parts real fast. It usually takes little time to build since you...

    Space Race

    You can probably get by with 1 super production city and 1 ok production city as long as you have aluminum. Your issue sounds like research. You need to get the tech in order to build the parts, and thats usually your limiting factor as opposed to manufacturing speed. For example, I won a...
