Just a hey there and a bump since playing me this weekend. Thought I'd spend a quiet Sunday playing a round or two. Anyways I've gotten a few "how to requests" so I thought I'd bump this to make it easier to find. This weeks map seems pretty cool, and some things never change... Tip of the...

No. All indications seem to point to November, for live users. The big dash overhaul will be available to non live enabled users via disc. From my understanding, in order to reach non-live consoles, the update will be available on disc, or packed in newer games released at the time, and...

I used to play CivRev quite a bit, some may remember me from the GOTW leaderboards. Simply put, CivRev will wear down, and will eventually kill your 360 DVD Drive. My primary 360 died, and given the amount of games I play, I didn't think much of it, though I had suspected the constant...

Sunday mornings.. Roughly 8:00am

Only if that ship sits on a space does it stop production. It's just flakey Ai. Scary movement, granted, but signifies nothing. I used to do the same to them, but found it does nothing. Let them do the water dance.

Give us Steven Hawkins or we will invade! I never give in to the demands of such a puny Ai. At least in Civ4, the Ai's would role in with stacks of terror, adding some bite to that bark. In CivRev, my reply is, "want some cheese with that whine?" Never give in to demands. I think when...

Hopefully making things clearer. Defensive units defend when being attacked, and do not add to an attacking unit's actual stat defense. Example, a space occupied with a catapult, and archer. If this space is attacked by an enemy, the archer will defend till destroyed. If your catapult attacks...

Yep, it seem the gaming gods have decided against choosing the spawning spot... Just when it seemed like a work around was found. Ironic considering how many times I've mistakenly spawned a galley in a lake by default in regular play. Grrr... Well I don't know about the one of the best...

A capture card or usb device would probably be best, but I think a digital camera would suffice. There's several Utube videos made with just a cam recorder. Given the graphics in game, I don't think it needs a high tech solution.

For the achievement, you have to pick a civ that doesn't receive a government bonus, and keep the government in despotism. It can be in any mode, any number of cities, ect. but you can not change from despotism, or have the computer do it. So I'd avoid; Saladin, Alex,Greece, ect. If you...

Umm.. Yeah, your not alone. I instinctively thought of creating a galley, and it spawned on the wrong side of the waters. Most disheartening. I must admit, I only tried the right spot, and will try the northern left next time I play. This is the first time its failed me. It maybe...

No, you receive no resources from the occupied tile. A city on a hill will get a defensive bonus though.

From 2K Elizabeth at the 2K site. "Currently, the histograph shows the first 7 historical events in your Civilization, which could be military or domestic (winning a city or spawning a Great Person.) As many of you have been confused by these markings, in patch 1.30 we’ll be taking them out...
