DLC 6 Anticipation Thread

[bite]

Okay, @bite . You can retire to your crypt. I mean, go to bed now.

bah crypts are so 19th century

 

[Katakanja]

Oh well

Doesn't look like there's gonna be a first look today, when is the next chance? Tomorrow or thursday?

They have done wednesdays before, but IIRC that was only when there was a holiday or a special reason.

Wasn't it Columbus Day yesterday

 

[Civbra]

they are doing this DLC especially for those who purchased the DELUXE edition in Brasil and it wasn't a vantage price, right?!. Following your logic, here in Brasil Thursday it's a holiday!

 

[IdiotStyle]

didn't they release the first look for china in china at a different time? maybe we'll get the same thing for indonesia even though i doubt it.

 

[Eagle Pursuit]

I'm pretty sure we will be waiting till Thursday for the First Look.

So yes, I think Sarah Darney is taking over Pete's old role:

Cool, I always liked Sarah.

Well if they are anything like the other DLC civs they will be completely broken and immediatly banned in MP..

lol I play in a $50/person Winner-take-all game. AUS, PERSIA, NUB, SUM, ScY, and MAc are insta-banned.

At some point, doesn't OP become the norm?

As we get more and more DLC and expansion civs, the vanilla ones will simply feel UP.

As long as you are no more than 6 players, you should keep them open. With so much choice, anyone is bound to get one!

That was my point. It was a rhetorical question. How many players are involved? Once you start banning 6+ civs, it starts getting silly. And it seems like it would be fun to see those civs go head-to-head in a mp game.

I'm really thrilled about Khmer being semi-confirmed. This was my top wish. I'll definitely be sorely tempted to buy this DLC immediately after release.

 

[Kimiimaro]

I go to school and when I return, I learn that bite is a vampire and that there is no First Look... Sigh.

I can add you to the game if you like. We play offline (via LAN) mostly so no internet issues. I usually play RUS or ARABIA, because horse units.

 

[IdiotStyle]

I feel like those get ban because they are op early on, but if you were to start your game in a later era the banning would most certainly change to something like russia or arabia too

Yea, I can't help but feel that feeling where you play a game like civ 5, and you feel the age of each civ as of their releases. I just wish Firaxis would touch up on the older civs, making them either better suited for new mechanics or not suck as much. I mean, CA did it with the Old World update for WARHAMMER 1, why not Firaxis?

Thanks, but I don't play multiplayer.

They did refresh France and Arabia, but it needed doing across the board.

Thanks, but I don't play multiplayer.

at $50 per game; it's like inviting a kid to play high-stakes poker.
