You are right. Still, cheating annoys me, no matter the circumstances. Of course I might let a 4 year old in chess to step against the rules, but I don't want to treat the AI like a 4 year old. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the game. And now I understand that the game needs them. I mixed this...

It is not unfair when you play equal. It is the only thing which is fair. And when the AI is just as smart as you, you are equals - considering you have both the same circumstances to play. You mean, the AI is such a "new player"? That it needs bonuses to get competitive? I rather think the...

Difficulty levels shouldn't mean the AI gets more bonuses. There should be more difficulty switches, one for the bonuses, one for the smartness and one e.g. for starting location. There could also be pre-made difficulty levels and you could add your owns (for fans who play much). I'm sick and...

That's good to hear. And why don't you make a wonder movie? ;) Unfortunately, it just says the application had error and terminated - the basic Windows error message. Nothing besides that. I don't like repetition, when I get the same looking continent. Earth-like elements (for example much...

The auto-generated name for landscape features (like mountains) would be fantastic, also the names should depend on the civilization. Another idea: you should be able to rename it any time (not in multiplayer! that'd be exploitable and would make problems). I think we need an auto-name...

By the way, I noticed that random map generator isn't very random - it's easy to spot repetative terrain. E.g. an outstanding part of a continent very similar to Kamchatca in Russia, it's quite common in Custom Continents. And not to be offtopic completely: Civ 5 must make fleets much more...

Yes but as far as I went looking in these mods, their quality is quite... low. I mean, they use the same models existing in the game, just giving them different clothes. I know modeling (especially human beings) is a hard work, still, that doesn't change that I don't want Matthias the Just...

Thanks :) I never ever thought about downloading anything to this game, now I begin to do so. But, still I think it should be included in the main game.

It SHOULD be a game. The idea you mentioned is only good for modders with incredible patience, who represent less than 0.1% of the gamers. The game should be in the foreground. You are right about there is a need for good modding tools, e.g. easier civ and leader modifications/additions. I want...

Making it more expensive - okay, making a limit of five - never! Even if making limits, it should depend on the civilization's size, population, or something like that. Promoteable spies? Yes. I agree with all of these. In addition, you should be able to win multiple (even all) victory types...

That'd be terrible IMHO. First, very few would choose democracy where they can lose control over their civ. Second, let the player be an evil bastard to his people if he wants to, without taking the control out of his/her hands. It's a fine example to me when total realism isn't needed for a...

I agree here. The most important thing is to make players able to create strategies. But if cities just keep appearing random, that already decreases your strategy-making possibilities. I know you didn't say they have to appear random, but some of them will. And what if you didn't want a city...

That's right, quantity of resources should be added. No. In this game YOU make the history. If the true history would restrict you from playing, it'd be very boring after a short time (would you play Civ 5 if you could only have the civilizations in 4000 BC which existed then? I wouldn't)...

I wouldn't like moving my archers on a crude drawing. My only problem with the game is the workshop. It should be some kind of industry at the age of industrialism and later, NOT such a little hut.

These three examples could be made world wonders also. However, why exactly would Google be a world wonder? It's just a big searching engine, and not a perfect one I might add (it's good to use, but not perfect).
