Welcome New Members

Well, I bought CIV V. I have tried to play it with some success. There is too much busywork with the game. All units have to have attention paid them each turn unless they are one Sentry, reinforced or moving. I want to end each turn when I want, not when the game thinks I can.

I can't make MODS work. I download them from STEAM and install them per their directions, but there is no indication that the MOD loaded.

The MODS on CIVFANATICS the game can't be loaded because I can't find the game on my computer. I have a STEAM folder under x86 Programs in Win 7, but I don't see a folder for CIV V.

I have switched back to playing CIV IV. It works better.

The main inprovement to CIV V is the "eye candy".

Overall I think CIV V is not worth buying!!!
 
I was a member here ages ago but I've long since forgotten my old username/password/obsolete-email-address-that-was-used-to-first-sign-up.

Anyway, nice to be back.
 
just wanted to say hi. im somewhat new to civilization. plunked around with a previous version before but didn't really do much so i'm kinda interested to see how this time will go.
 
Hello Fanatics,

I have not been on for a while, but I've been playing a ton of Civ V and was looking for information on the patch coming out soon. I love the game but know it desperately needs this patch. Not many people have the patience to play multi when the thing is moving way slow. Take it easy all...see you on the battlefield!

Hey all. I'm not sure where to post this, but I was wondering if its possible to play leader for the wrong nation. I want to play America, but I want to try some of the other leaders. I'm playing Civ4.
 
We are getting quite an influx of new members to the site, presumably because the release-date for Civ-IV is getting nearer & nearer, and people are coming here in search of news & info ...

Actually, I'm here because of the release of Civ V, so Civ IV went down in price; as a former Civ player, I found it irresistible.

Now what thread has the answer to why this former player is having his hat handed to him?
 
When I log in, I keep getting badgered into making my first post. To be honest, I've been too busy reading to say much yet. This site is stuffed with awesome advice, strategy, and info.

I have the complete Civ 4, and I don't have any plans yet to get Civ5. (Mostly due to only just starting to play 4: but also because my computer specs aren't too hot for the new version.)

Now, off to read more in the Stragety and Tips section...

Hehe, tbh I seriously thought about buying those expansion packs for CivIV instead of Civ5.
I ordered, canceled, ordered, canceled and ordered the Civ5. Was thinking of canceling that order too forgot about it for a day... and then all of a sudden they had it in stock and it arrived next day :eek:
Then I just installed it and said what the heck, it can't be that bad... Turned out I was beta testing it :gripe:

See here:
 
Hello - Thank you for being there!

Start a custom game and then select "Unrestricted Leaders" as one of the conditions. Hope that helps :) Oh, and welcome everyone! :band:
 
Hey guys. I have decided to try my hand at a little modding for Civ5, and these forums seem really great. Unfortunately I can't say I've been a long time reader, I'm relatively new, but don't hold that against me please.

I'm also pretty new to the Civ series. I had certainly heard about 3, but I never played it. At the suggestion of a friend I played 4. I really enjoyed it and have been really excited about Civ5. While many seem to dislike it for whatever (completely valid) reasons; I have been having a blast and am enjoying it immensely.

Aside from that, I am your regular techie/geekish English guy, with a love of all kinds of games. I am also bemoaning the depressing decline of the PC gaming market. It's clearly the best platform. Damn you consoles!
 
I'm long time lurker and civ fan from the beginning of time. Thought I could come say hi, so here it is: hi everyone!
