You are a fool if you buy downloadable content on a game that will have "unprecedented" modding power. Any modder with any skill will snatch the DLC and copy the necessary files making a free modded Genghis Khan or other $4.99 DLC. Marketing or not, it is a shame games are not completed to start...

Buttheadistan definitely needs to be included! :eek:

184. ARE YOU THINKING WHAT I'M THINKING?! FINALLY! I have upgraded my four computers, networked them together, and now I will take OVER THE WORLD!!! The day has finally come. All this work has NOT been in vain. Come, my little white rabbit, we have work to do... :crazyeye:

Ahhh... the words of Journey. Those of you under the age of 30, that is the epic band that Randy Jackson (from American Idol) played guitar with. I first played Civilization on the SNES version, about 1995 and then found Civ II on the PC later. IMHO, Civ II: Gold and Civ4 are the best. We...

More like Apache helicopter. I watched an editorial on the history channel that stated that a division of chariots charged firing arrows all the while and wheeled about going the opposite direction in retreat. "So many arrows were fired in succession it was like being fired on by an Apache...

Money! Money! Money! We are still in the middle of a recession - trust me, I am laid off in a small city with no jobs to be found - and Civ 5 is a guaranteed franchise. They will certainly improve their revenue and stock worth when they release a game and all us sheep who have followed it...

I want the Hittites with their three-man chariots!

"These threads crack me up in every gaming forum I am on." -culdeus Wow! Aren't you the crowd silencer. Way to kill the enthusiasm. You don't think 99.9% of everyone who is posting right now doesn't know that every word they are saying isn't being added into the game as we speak. Thanks...

In my humble opinion there should be another unique unit, possibly one in two different ages. One unique unit does not define an entire culture. One particularly lacking aspect of the game is naval combat and few unique naval units. IN FACT, every game I have won in Civ 4 I have little to no...

I wonder if they will tweak leader traits. I myself would like to be able to create a customer leader with chosen traits, but it sounds like that will not happen if leaders are preset. We have: Aggressive, Creative, Expansive, Financial, Industrious, Organized, Philosophical, Spiritual...

I like the canal idea with a max of 1 or 2 spaces. I have wanted that idea for a long time - and rivers should be navigable too.

Here are my wishes to see in Civ5: 1 - A few more government types like oligarchy, technocracy, popular democracy (different from representative democracy) and others. 2- No revolution in voluntarily changing civics. That, IMHO, was stupid. Revolution should only occur during high stress...

After much talk of diversity and representation I have amended my previous list: Americas: 4 USA Aztec Incan Maya Europe: 6 Britain France Germany Rome Greece Russia (and Asia, I know) Near East & Africa: 4 Arab Persia Egypt Carthage Far East: 3 China Korea Japan...

Good point. They are pulling the old Egyptian erase-a-face to wipe him from history. Not that they want to be proud of him, I understand.

There wouldn't be so much heat about western domination and their influence on the civ franchise if other continents took a leading role in dominating as well. The fact is European diversity in such a small continent bred conflict within the continent and the Mediterannean which lead to a...
