Patch incoming

So, I found what the bug is: as soon as you discover a technology in a turn and an AI leader (possibly it has to do with multiple AI's in the same turn, but can't check that) the game crashes. It doesn't seem to know what should come first. As soon as I changed from ecology to another technology to research (which took more than 1 turn) it didn't crash. however, the next turn both only took one turn which ment that it still crashed because Ghandi wanted to talk to me. So, they basically screwed up all games in which other AI's are around or in which you research stuff. And let that be the point of civ: playing against the computer and researching stuff...

I'm seriously pissed off at the moment about this patch. How could they not see this stuff?
 
This patch has really messed up my game. Similar to the above reported issues the diplomacy screen messes up. Diplomacy screen slows up. Sometimes given offers which are blank. It takes ages to get out of the diplo screen. When it returns to the map the UI is missing and eventually the game crashes. I can't progress the game at all.
 
I have another possible bug. Was finally winning on King difficulty and upon winning did not get the achievements for winning on king nor winning with France. Did not play with mods, ever. So that can't be it. Is the version number of my save different if I started it before the patch? I have been trying for months to achieve winning on King and would like the damn achievement.
 
Im having the same problems. Everytime there is more than one diplomacy screen message in a turn it crashes. Likewise when I loaded an auto save where there was a diplomacy message before it said "continue your journey" so I could never get out of the screen and was stuck...lost a really fun save game.

Unplayable at the moment. This needs fixing fast. Did they even test it??

On the other hand. I like the fast turns and the new jungle/forest.
 
My problems been with save games. Haven't tried a new game yet. Starting one now to see if its resolved.
 
I like the patch, but there are way to many issues.

Pro

- faster turn times
- great changes to the combat AI
- nice looking forest/jungle textures
- roads/railroads are looking much nicer

Contra

- poor changes to lightning/colors: some plains look like grassland, some hills look like flatland (especially near rivers)
- sometimes 'Next Turn' is active, but cannot be clicked
- annoying issues with diplomacy screen
- way to many smaller bugs

And I am still missing faster aircraft animations and an option to look at the diplomacy window while the diplomacy screen is visible.
 
They weren't kidding with the "more focussed attacks" thing, sheez. I was having my hill-based city with a Comp Bow in it, and another one on a hill nearby, with Shanghai in throwing distance (me playing as Finland - mod). I see some Chinese units coming my way and I prepare by sending a Chariot Archer to the city as well...and I lost the city. To 4 Warriors, 6 archers and a Trireme. The AI focussed its attacks perfectly, sending the warriors out in front with the archers right behind them. No more dancing around. Well played.

This is great news.
 
Game is totally jacked now.

1. When it's my turn, I get the spinning globe cursor.

2. When it's not my turn, it still says "Next Turn" as if it were.

3. I get blank diplo screens - nothing offered or requested - that you have to "refuse" to get out of.

4. I get a "Configuring Game Data... Please Wait" window when loading pre-patch games that was never there before, and when exiting those games.

This is in Save Games, turn 522 (Epic Speed).
 
Can anyone offer any help regarding my achievement problem? I tried for ages to win on King and would like the achievement.
 
I'm trying to make a new game with mods, but it won't start up, it just stays on the really advanced setup menu. While I know it might be the mods fault, I have also had issues with the spinning globe cursor on my turn, and the leader board is annoying.

Edit: Just tried to start a new game without mods and it has the same problem.

Edit 2: Just quit the game and the music is still playing.

I would just hold onto the save until they get these issues resolved. If not, then I think beating the game on the next difficulty unlocks the achievement for the lower ones (not 100% sure).

I'll be 90 before I manage to beat the game on the next difficulty. Took me long enough to beat King :(
 
I can't even patch up here, 815pm EST and I'm getting the error "The Steam servers are not available for your Civilization 5 request".

NIIIICE

same got the servers aren't available message. I preordered BNW back when they had that sale going on with the dlc, but I doubt that is related

If you have existing save points for these issues, we would love to take a look. Additionally, please let us know if this is something encountered only in saves, or if you see this in a new fresh game as well.
 
Another 'bug' found: Ethiopian Warriors in my game have the same exact icon over their heads as barbie warrior units.

Confuzzzled me quite a bit for a minute, there.
