I guess they did. I would have included it in my post, but I couldn't remember the file and option and figured they would be able to find it. It may be worthwhile to take that and a few other commonly asked questions in a separate sticky for players. However, getting them to read that sticky...

This has been asked and answered multiple times in this thread. It can be stopped by editing one of the settings files directly, but it doesn't save you that much time as it still takes the same 15-20 seconds for the game to load.

It sounds pretty useless, but it absolutely saved me in a game, and not even in a big choke point (details below). I was playing an Earth game and started in the US as the only player in the Americas. When I finally started invading other civs via the Alaska/Russia "bridge", I had some...

That's an excellent post, thank you for sharing. I would stand against the full screen "fix", but again I understand why people want it that way so oh well. At least they have a long list of much needed fixes.

I am pretty sure some people have said it is also dependent on the size of the cities, which seems in line with what I've observed, but I don't know.

I've noticed you mention a couple of times that different issues are being fixed on the next patch. Is there another thread either here or at 2K that addressed the issues that are actually being fixed?

I understand where people might take issue with this, but I actually found it very beneficial to me. The only thing I lose is the ability to scroll in one direction by moving the mouse to that edge (the left edge for me), but I can still move around the map multiple different ways with the...

To my knowledge, it has been said hotseat is coming, it just was not included in the initial release (another sign this game was way too rushed to retail). You should be able to poke around the site and find better info on it though.

When I started playing last week, I am pretty sure I would get the combat box when my city is bombarding an enemy so I could see how much damage it will do (estimated of course). However, for the past few days, I do not get the combat box when bombarding with a city. Can anyone confirm if they...

I am pretty sure I've come across a couple other wonders that an engineer cannot rush, but I don't remember now what they were (think one was the space program wonder).

I understand the idea behind behind doing this, but I also agree that the penalty is too steep. In previous games, it was easy to amass a very large army, which encouraged the game to favor defenders in battle. With the new mechanics and balance, you have to have a small army (comparatively...

In my test, the game gives you the option to move and still fortify until healed, but you do not heal during that turn.

I know the answer to this has been given, but I do want to caution anyone trying this that if you skip picking a policy and then settle a new city, the cost of that policy will increase. Therefore, I don't really see an advantage to not picking a policy unless you are torn between multiple...

I am pretty sure I've experienced a different, but possibly related bug. Unfortunately, I wasn't paying too close of attention and didn't think to screenshot what I could at the time. I was trying to move my scout two hexes away onto a previously undiscovered square. I did not get a red icon...

Yes...I must say that is one change I really love, although I would like a little better handling of situations when you get to negative resources.
