Seems like you could save and reload in that situation, although it's obviously less than ideal.

Sorry for the thread necro, but I can't find anything with current details. Are there any more up to date promises about Pitboss in Civ5? Obviously, a month after release didn't happen. I'm hoping to get a game set up this weekend, so if anyone has any details I'd really appreciate it...

Great podcast this week!! The higher-pitched voice guy (sorry, didn't get his name) was unpleasant to listen to though, not adding much and just calling things he didn't like ******ed or whatever.

Great thread. Bibor, you really have a way of articulating (and understanding) the finer points of game design - you should really consider entering the field by creating a mod or something. I'd definitely try out whatever you produced.

Bump for great justice. My summoner name is FastLoris - I'd love to play with some CFC folks.

I had a great time with IV (playing it all the way up to when the download started for V). I played V for a couple weeks, getting most of the achievements - including winning on diety, something I've never even come close to doing on IV - and found myself completely bored like most of you...

At this point would you really want 2k/firaxis in charge of development?

Oh, I just mean the highest difficulty levels as designed by the developers; I don't do the stuff where you're not allowed to build horsemen, can only play on certain maps, are not allowed certain victory conditions, can't look at the screen, etc. :)

Good luck (sincerely!) I'm at 50 hours now, and have for the most part moved on to new games for the same reason as you - that the game is not engaging, I can beat it at the highest levels, and in general it's basically boring. Luckily, I'm still having a lot of fun working my way up to...

I was just talking about the part where he wrote an article, posted it to a forum, and then started arguing like an insecure child with everyone who disagreed with him. Mystery solved? I know I forgot my sarcasm tags, but I thought it was fairly obvious.

You're welcome! <3 It's much clearer now that I understand that everyone who disagrees with you is just spewing negativity.

This is how you engage with people with differing points of view? Seems pretty engaging and constructive to me! Now I understand how you are such an insightful reviewer.

And do you think they'd be happy with you coming to this forum and acting in this way, representing them? If they do they are a bunch of idiots. I, for one, now know to disregard anything I read on that site. What is the point of this thread? You come in, post a review that you wrote, and...

obvious troll is obvious Please don't call others a troll, if you have an issue with a post, report it or don't respond at all.
