Consistently corrupted file after mp play

[Adjuvant]

I've been playing multiplayer lately. Firstly I'd like to say the mp game for civ5 is godawful and obviously a complete afterthought.

The purpose of the thread, though, is to ask a question about game files potentially becoming corrupted in mp. Every time I play a mp game and subsequently verify game cache there is always at least one file which must be reacquired. This has happened repeatedly all week.

I verify game cache, start application and it downloads. Then I will close application, verify again and there's nothing "wrong". Once I start the application again and enter a mp game again, after the game, I close the application and verify game cache again. Again there is always at least one file which must be reacquired.

I repeat the process and it happens again and again. Can anyone explain this?

Its nothing to do with any essential files needed to play multiplayer.

This has happened to me when I've logged into steam with a second account that has different CIV5 DLC than the current installation. A new file was downloaded every time we switched accounts with different DLC. I don't know if this is applicable, but thought I'd through that out just in case. Good luck!
