Have you tried playing Team Player? Not being able to play w/ a friend may be a god send. Secret partners team killing individuals is a big problem on 360 live.

Zulus are going to get the majority of villages, & the free settler that comes w/ them. After that so what. Also one capital doesnt mean a slam dunk game. BOOM Goes The Dynamite. Always wanted to say that. There are still three or two other human civs working against him. I think the...

My Goodness - Complicated; Defn: Posts with one or more quotes. Im sure your reply was biting, but too much trouble to read & find out.

Hi dan - your post reminds me of those posters who dont use punctuation & its a solid wall of writing. Too complicated for me. How about a Click Here Button for forum dummys like me. I really dont know what to do with your initial post. Manock14

Hi Davor - Well done on the game buy. And yes on the MP gold account. Know it seems microsoft nickels & dimes you to death but the xbox live is worth it & is only $40 a YEAR so what is that 3 bucks a month. Even a college student could afford it. I got Civ Rev specifically to play MP, &...

XBox, & especially since the latest xbox update am happy with it since games can be run from harddrive including Civ Rev. However, as youve read by others mp is infuriating lacking. I have never played an online game where it didnt come down to two players because the other twos games either...

How much did you get for the Great Builder? Havent tried that yet.

A comment on Free for All vs. Team player. If I wanted to play Teams w/ players secretly trading techs between them I would play Team. But I dont preferring to play Free for All where as the name implies everyone is out for themselves. How about a little less anti competitive conduct...

Bummer @ your disk. Thats infuriating I know especially since I dont know of any way of burning a backup disk as in pc games. However theres a post a few down stating Target is selling them for $15 which is pretty darn low about a trip to Subway, & lasts longer. Heres a quote from a post...

I get crushed too. And Im a long time Civ player from pc. New at Xbox so I thought the ranking system was supposed to help w/ this but my 250 rating is often matched w/ over 1000 ratings. MP playing may be like real war. Your opponent may conduct himself abhorently but you may have to...

Read somewhere the XBox 360 play from HD upgrade can be installed by computer download - burning to disk - installing to console. Highly recommend the HD upgrade. Console runs so much quieter & efficiently when running from HD with the dvd drive not running at all which means w/o that...

Alot posts arguing who is the strongest civ. Dont get it. Winning with a strong civ is not impressive. Just once would like to play a mp that doesnt have Chinese, or Aztecs. I feel a loss when I dont have at least one Great Wonder when I go down to Chinese guns. Other than that. Ho hum.
