Status
Not open for further replies.
1. No new maps
2. No fix for Air and Naval unit warfare
3. No fix for Unit production cost (it's too low)
4. No graphic speed enhancement
5. No better AI
6. No new tile improvements (ex. Land/Water minefield, No new resources, etc)
7. No new religions
8. No new civics
9. No support Win-Lose-Dis system for Multiplayers (Unofficial Ladder report system is ridiculous)
10. No new patch for Warlords

P.S.
11. No CANADA

The other solutions is to buy of of russian cracked copy for 2,5 euro! There will be plenty of them here, so maybe this time it is an option not to buy original version?


btw! I like Russian ignorance of copy rights or patents . You can copy everything you want and sell it even in shop hehe. Best crackers have even other crackers who are copying their copies - just free market.
 
Sitting here with a vintage AMD XP1500 with a Geforce 5200fx trying desperately to get Warlords loading....:sad: :sad:
 
12) No lava stage. What sort of video game doesn't have a lava stage? Even the fantasy mod is some crummy ice thing!

13) They included the Holy Roman Empire, creating a horrific taint that has spread throughout the entire code. Not even modding the HRE out will be able to save the disk. We must kill it with fire.

14) No Hitler. Why is Hitler never in these games? It's not as if Firaxis would be opening the door to massive controversy for no real effect or anything.

15) They cut Superrobo. Now Superrobo will never be repaired. Curse you, Firaxis! Robots can learn to love!

lol. lava stage.

15) What? What? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
 
Sorry to bother you guys, does anybody know when Bts will be on sale here in Japan and which is the minimal pc system requirements to play it? I'm afraid my computer won't run Bts.Thanks in advance.

PS: I already looked for in other threads and did not find the answer, about pc system.if this is the wrong thread to ask about it, I do apologise.
 
EDIT 2:
What new maps would you like to have in? Could you post an example?
I'm really interested in this.

@ Rebakan


RECOMMENDED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

1.8GHz Intel Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon processor or equivalent/better
512 MB RAM
128 MD Video Card w/ DirectX 8 support (pixel and vertex shaders)
DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card
CD-ROM Drive
1.7GB of free hard drive space
DirectX 9.0c (included)

MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
1.2GHz Intel Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon processor or equivalent
256MB RAM
CD-ROM Drive
64 MB Video Card w/Hardware T&L (GeForce 2/Radeon 7500 or better)
DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card
1.7 GB of free hard drive space
Direct X 9.0c (included)

That is official report but you will actually need somewhat better PC if you want to play huge maps with lots of civs and without lagging in latter stages.
 
I won't be buying BTS, It was pre-ordered on father's day by Marciv the younger!

now thats a good reason not to buy BTS.
 
Do you think it's enough to be called BTS?

Considerable content has been added to the modern era.
New Technologies:

Classical Age
Aesthetics: Fills the space between writing and literature and drama.

Renaissance
Military Science: Allows new promotions

Modern Age:
Advanced Flight: Lies between Flight and Stealth and allows players to build gunships and jet fighters, obsoletes Stables.
Laser: Allows for construction of Mobile SAMs and Mobile Artillery.
Superconductor: Allows for Laboratories and certain spaceship parts.
Stealth: At the very end of the tree and opens up the chance to build stealth units.

These are not the new Technologies. It's already in Warlords.
 
Let's see now...

1. No new maps - use fractal setting, or world editor. There will be new scenarios with new maps though.

2. No fix for Air and Naval unit warfare - they seem fine to me

3. No fix for Unit production cost (it's too low) - same as above

4. No graphic speed enhancement - my game has great graphics speed. It must be your computer.

5. No better AI - AI is being improved

6. No new tile improvements (ex. Land/Water minefield, No new resources, etc) - the fort has been upgraded. What new tile improvements would you want anyways?

7. No new religions - 7 religions aren't enough for you?

8. No new civics - similar to above, we have enough civics. Some civics will be changes slightly though (i.e. state property won't allow corporations)

9. No support Win-Lose-Dis system for Multiplayers (Unofficial Ladder report system is ridiculous) - I'm not into MP so I'm not sure what you're talking about

10. No new patch for Warlords - I don't have Warlords (epic game content will be included in BtS though :))


P.S.
11. No CANADA - edit a civ to create Canada


beat that! ha! (sorry I just needed to do that)
 
16. No I-WIN button
17. No Better Player program
18. No Giant Death Robots in the epic game. I want Transformers kicking my enemy's ass.
19. No new planet scripts - Mars at least would have been nice
20. Weak nukes not fixed
21. Nukes still cause Global Warming and not Nuclear Winter
22. Environmentalism does not stop Global Warming
23. The game is still extremely difficult without exploiting animals
24. No nudist Ecotopia civic
25. Still no option other than to play as humans

I could think of more.


PS: 26. No POLAND or uber samurai SECOND JAPANESE LEADER. How do you Pole dance or make sushi like this?

27. No resource trading option (NTT is good, I want NRT. Without NRT, Corporations will be nerfed)

Will there be new resources?
<alexman> No new resources, but old resources are now more important because of corporations.

AI trades with AIs during the always war option is on.
 
#1 reason not to buy BTS

Unconfirmed rumours that they replaced both Tokigawa and Isabella with a new Colossian leaderhead!

Seriously you don't want to play civ, go play "Space Empires V" or something. Some of us are buying the expansion because . . . we like the game.
