Game Speed

[Lord Parkin]

Not sure why this option is being asked for, but nonetheless... cast your vote.

Bear in mind than an average game is 1-2 years in length on Normal speed, so going any slower adds a huge amount of extra time to the game. Going faster than Normal speed isn't that good either, especially on a standard or larger map which we're likely to have, because units obsolete way before they can arrive at the front, and also it is way too easy to defend (because units are so cheap to build quickly).

Personally I say we stick with the tried and true Normal speed.

Voted Normal, the most balanced speed IMO.

Epic is THE speed.

On normal you can start a war with axes and face LBs at the end or even when you're attacking the 2nd or 3rd city. It's just sick.
Quick? what this means? Do you have to move fast your mouse?

But i understand what it can mean on a pitboss game, so i'll be fine with Normal if this will ne the choice.

Epic is most fun.

Just curious, how many players plan to be playing this game after Civ6 is released?

Normal speed for me, and my sanity...

I've always had the most fun on Marathon, seeing as most were going Normal speed and that's probably for the best I'm just casting a vote to show difference of opinion.

 

[Lord Parkin]

Fair enough.

Twelve votes already, in 10.5 hours. Not bad.

Fair enough.

Twelve votes already, in 10.5 hours. Not bad.

So would this be voting at Normal speed? I voted for tried and true, as well.

Understandable. I agree that Marathon and Epic are fun to play as a solo game, but I hate to even think how long it would take to complete this game at Marathon!

I voted 'Normal'.

Normal speed has been voted in by the official team vote! So now we know what speed we'll be playing on.
