if I had one to vote for (but it's not present in the list) it would be having access to happiness and unhappiness in the city view screen In my opinion, happiness is a major component of the game and I find myself often trying to optimize happy buildings Vs City Size and prevent growth I...

so in the end, venice has the ability to anihilate completely a city state by buying it wow I'm amazed but that means venice is the worst I mean even mongols tend to conquer all city states (as expected with their UB) they can find but at least you can liberate them afterward ... edit: ok...

As in the title some city state got bought by Venice and then Japan declared war on venice Japan Conquered capital of venice capital transfered to the city state that was bought Japan "razed" the last city of Venice (e.g. a city state at first) I say "razed" in quotes cause I didn't see...

for the 1.14 fix do you need to start a new game for it to be effective ? I'm asking because I upgraded to 1.14 in a running game and I just got that bug where once you get out of diplomacy you stay with the spinning globe mouse cursor. I fixed it by opening civilopedia. that said maybe I have...

complicated and doesn't make much sense, but thanks for info

after seeing your post bc1 I felt like retrying and in fact have found what bothers me : the application stays full screen always even when you alt tab xD but yeah in fact it seems I can alt tab just fine, it just won't minimize on alt tab hence why I thought it wasn't responding shift tab...

ha thanks for the replies yeah I didn't know about puppets, I guess that's also because for me, puppets are more like temporary when in the middle of an ongoing war

hello, I'm not sure and I chose egality in my current game but honestly when I have a good look at it in autocracy you have : -Militarism => 6 guaranteed happiness for each city -Fortified Borders => 3 guaranteed happiness for each city total 9 local happiness for every city, since all...

good idea but no space on desk xD so need larger desk, which needs larger room, which needs larger house ho wait that's gonna be expensive me thinks xD hahaha

never had these memory use pop ups win7 x64 here , no reason to downgrade to windows 8 :p +1

on the other hand dealing with the limitations of the OS you design your applications for, is the job of the application developer :lol: personally I feel like being able to use 99% of the ressources of a computer is good design, because it might be wanted in some situations, and let's be...

you're joking right ? I mean ok civ 5 is pretty for a turn based game but that's pretty much it Skyrim with tons of mods is very pretty and has near instantaneous startup time so no I don't think the graphics have anything to do with the time it takes to startup & load a game and as I said...

maybe I'll try to run it in a window though I don't much like to run games in a window @docbud no it doesn't really depend from all that, or rather yes it's influenced but you knowing that stuff won't change a single thing but since you asked for it: i7-2600k 16Gb RAM GTX470 oc...

:o I thought it was a free great person doesn't seem so "free" at all anymore

is there a way to make civ 5 not hog all ressources when loading ? I'm a multitasker at heart and my main annoyance with civ 5 is the long loading times (mainly when launching & reloading a savegame) well it's not really THAT long but the fact that you can't ALT-Tab or Shift-Tab (steam...
