If you could put yourself into a coma right until Civ V is released ...

[bhavv]

... Would you?

 

[sghiminini]

I was thinking of freezing myself

 

[rastak]

Nah, I'm going to try and get some boardgaming in this weekend and watch some American Football Sunday. I would probably do that for Monday though!

 

[Kruelgor]

Would you like to be put into a coma? We can arrange that if you really want. And who knows, maybe when you wake up CiV VIII will already be out.

Getting into a comma means not doing anything else until release. Why not learn modding instead? Wow.. if I had all the hours from now till release just to get into Lua and C++ I'd be a happy man.

Trying my best to get as far ahead as possible in my classes and getting as many brownie points as possible with my gf. The result being I look like a kiss ass both academically and with my girl but at least when Civ 5 comes out I can spend all of Tuesday hunched over with no worries.

I kinda wouldn't mind the coma though. Ever since the live stream I am dieing to play.

I'm actually starting to feel a bit more calm as the US activation day/time is nearly here, my game is preloaded, vacation days are set, etc.

Induced comas, i.e. "reefersleep" is for interstellar travel only. Not for video games.

 

[guczy]

Hybernation would be a good idea, but then again think about what happened to Eric Cartman

 

[Shurdus]

No, I need to work next week, and also I would not be able to play europa universalis while in a coma.

No, I wouldnt

We are imagining that you could wake right up when Civ V is available to play, not a real coma, but just some kind of prolonged sleep until then.

You can... it's called Jack Daniels XD

Sure, you can do that. Take a few days off of school or work...grab yourself a few cases of hard liqour and you can probably time it out just right, and if you're little hung over on release date then don't worry as other leaders have historically ruled while drunk (i.e. Genghis Khan, Bill Clinton, etc,)

If I could wake up from the coma only to do some classwork and then go back, hell yeah.

You can only wake up from a comma to do fun things, silly.

Great idea putting yourself in coma..... waking up 500 years in the future...

Nothing runs off of a Windows os anymore. Not since there robot army destroyed the fabled country of America.

 

[Alsark]

Only if I wanted to get fired and kicked out of my university program.

Otherwise, I'd totally do it.

 

[Schuesseled]

... Would you?

The art of precise comaring has not yet been perfected.

I'd have to say no as it is a little risky, you might wake up in 30 years rather than in 3 days.

Yes because that's how coma's work.

Nah, id rather complain on this forum about why Firaxis wont just release the game for those who pre-ordered the digital copy. They talk about saving paper with their recyclable box...HERES AN IDEA, JUST GIVE PPL INCENTIVE FOR DOWNLOADING IT INSTEAD (Release it earlier!). Save all the damn paper AND save all the damn money!
