I have this on another PC and it works fine; so I guess I can just re-install without backing up.

Step 1 and 2 were done. I tried step 3.. basically for over a half hour it has been saying it is in the process of validating but 0% done. Should I just uninstall then re-install CIV5 and/or STEAM? What on earth is the issue?

Same issues.............

I hate it...7 days later...and on my Windows 8 PC I STILL CANNOT PLAY THE GAME!!!! I uninstalled McAfee...turned off the firewall and STILL!!!

I uninstalled McAfee on my Windows 8 user account, re-started the PC. The SAME exact problem happened! Now what!?

I have to say, I really hate STEAM and it is unfortunate CIV is run through it. I'm not an id10t, but I'm also not a programmer. If you are going to charge people $50 for a game, you should have LIVE customer support via phone or some other useful, responsive interface. This is the 3rd+ time...

I have been unable to access BNW CIV5 since the 10/27 update on my Windows 8 PC. Each time I try to access the game, a receive a message from STEAM Stating: I have re-started the PC, I even disabled McAfee real time scanning, scheduled scanning, and firewall. Nothing changes. Oddly, on my...

Its a day later...and still the same ...I really hate this STEAM. It's one thing to have problems, but at least offer REAL customer service...don't hide behind the internet.

Just tried to play for the first today, and have been getting denied each time. After trying to update for a few minutes, I continue to receive a message saying: An error occured while updating (content server unreachable). Tried 5 times, same issue even after rebooting. Once again, I...

I really think having the capital on the coast (if within a handful of tiles) is much better, since you can send cargo ships from there with usually the best return. However, I've heard you are really setting yourself back if you don't settle t1. What do you think?

I though the best way was: Library, Granary >Science >Growth >Gold and Production back and fourth >Culture >Military Also, when building DEC, is the benefit national or local too?

Highlands? Also, I as a under 200 hour total player, see wide as being a lot more difficult. Extra science cost/sp cost/national wonder costs and slower productive cities. I'd love to play wide and sprawl, is there any good guide like the science guide?

I hate using TRs internally, aside from 1 food to my capital early to mid game, and possibly 1-2 to a "new" colony city.

OR have social policy saving. GM-settle instead of tour? What to do with future GP?
