I've played and completed a few games on civ so far no worries but on my latest game i get a crash everytime i load it up on the same turn, 390 something, during the 'please wait' bit after i end the turn. I've tried running all graphics low where they were previously default, ive tried both the directx versions still crashes same time, it's so frustrating when i am close to winning a cultural victory which i have yet to do on civ 5 :confused:. As i say crashes on both Dx9 and Dx10/11 and heres my system spec:

Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 (32 bit)
Intel Core2 Quad Q6600
NVidia Geforce GT220
3GB RAM

If anyone has any suggestions, i think it might be a civ 5 issue as i have run it fine for over a month on this system.
 
This is the same exact thing that has happened to me, except that I am playing on a Mac. I had played several games before, one of them all the way through - a very, very long game - and this had not happened. Granted, there were occasional crashes throughout all my time playing Civ 5 - but little enough of them to ignore. But none of them were as big as this one: always at the same turn after hitting "next turn". I re-loaded it again and again, trying something new each time, e.g, changing the resolution, re-starting the computer, so on; - but none of it makes a difference. I don't buy it that the game is lost. There must be some way. Otherwise, there better be a patch to fix it coming out sooner than soon! But I do want to add: besides this technical issue, the game ROCKS.
 
I agree its not all that bad, very different to civ 4. Im a bit annoyed if my game is lost though :(
thanks for the quick reply
 
I too have reached apoint where the program crashes in the late game. I do not wish to start over again,untill the bugs are fixed im going to try to get bts to reload. Really dissapointed that civ 5 flavor appears to try to be non offensive, but omitting the Bismarck, no religions, and the Hoover and three gorges damms? Im offended.
