I've only had time to play one game, but one thing that ALWAYS bugged me in previous games was how the game was scored. By the time I found CivFanatics that had already been fixed so generally speaking the earlier one finished the higher the score for C3C via Jason scoring. I thought they might address this in the new game.
However, playing C4 I started check my 'score if you win this turn' and it kept going up!
I've always thought it took far more skill to finish fast.
I was happy that one now gets points for population, land, technology and wonders. Kinda
, makes everything worthwhile. I did a domination victory (boy can you get poor when you expand to fast) and got lots of points for population and technology (I finished with a few tanks on the board), but not nearly as much for land (even though I made the domination limit) or wonders (really didn't build too many).
1) Does anyone know the technical details of how score is calculated?
2) Is there going to be some way to address early on the 'high score gotten by playing to last turn' problem.
No worries. I just love this game. Thanks to all those such as Sullla who's write-ups made my first game more fun and even easy. Sidenote: I can finally really play multiplayer with my wife and kids since each player can be set to a different level! Haven't done it yet, but did a pre-game setup, so hope that function works well.
