my multiplayer probs

[greenberetdelta]

i love civ but i think civ 5 is one of the best, however multiplayer is kinda crap for me adn my friends...
1. why do units teleport all over the place and have instant battles, didn't that used to be an option in the other games? sometimes you cant really tell were units are going and you will be like when did that guy get there and during the battles the retreat option is gone because its instant and i dont get to see my men fight in there battles
2. its kinda laggy and every thing is delayed
3. idk if its me or something but there's very few games being played online alot which doesn't make sense because steam says alot of people are playing. is everyone playing single player?



P.S. srry for the spelling and grammer

The first and second are really things that can be fixed.
As far as I know is the turned off animation a design choice (at least until now, may be changed later) and the lack of public multiplayer games is not something that can be fixed.

The second is something that can be fixed, with some better MP-code, but no-one's sure if and when that will happen.

One thing is for certain: They're working on a pitboss, which might alleviate some problems.
