    Steam Q&A and FAQ

    Rain away, they have a ping test with twitch test as well. All this detail can be sent to Facebook, etc..I think that you could incorporate this testing to become a league member. Many more people would join. I would also ask for a screenshot of the PC performance log while in game to determine...

    Civ V - Random Thoughts (Long)

    My Game Play Experiences Part 1: Well it is safe to say that Civ 5 is worth the money. With that said, let’s take a look back at our dear old friend Civ 4 in an effort to explain some of the changes that have been made and to also ask ourselves why these significant changes were made...

    Civ5 performance analysis

    I have a high end Dell Precision laptop to run sheetmetal simulations. It has an i7 with 8gb of RAM with all the bells. This games still runs like a frozen turdsicle. Boringgggg.

    A programmers perspective on a buggy release.

    Well, I guess I come from a sheetmetal deformation simulation software business development manger perspective. Since this is what I have been doing for the last 12 years of my professional work life. Building mods in your loft/studio (which is probably code for mom's basement) does not lend...

    A programmers perspective on a buggy release.

    I am sure I am just a little frustrated. The debate over multiplayer v. AI is for another thread. But to quote page 6 of the Bradygames official Civ 5 strategy guide "Experienced players often know what to do better than the computer"

    A programmers perspective on a buggy release.

    I am more dissapointed in carry over of civ4. I was hoping for a huge step forward when the words "new gaming engine" where used. I am still fumbling around in a crappy gaming lobby with a 50/50 chance of having a playable game.

    These are very obvious bugs. I can understand having some minor details that need to be fine tuned, but game play has been sacrificed. It's obvious by the outcry. It is undeniable.

    A programmers perspective on a buggy release.

    There is no delay if there is no hard release date. Ask Toyota what happend to there quality reputation when they released vehicles too soon. Oh yeah, people died in those "beta" releases and people stopped buying there cars. CIV 6 no way in hell.

    In addition; why did they commit to a hard release date. This is the root cause.

    A programmers perspective on a buggy release.

    I am at home and I decide to dedicate a large portion of my day to play and I discover that I just spent 4K on a high end laptop + $100 Civ 5 SE and $20 on a software program that causes more frustration during multiplayer than it is worth. My hopes of pissing on gamespy execs is unfortunately...
