So what was your record in climbing tech tree? It can be current game or past.
If you didn't reached end of tech tree, then post reason if you want - Game won? Too long turn times?
 
Renaissance (Printing Press or so) is the point I'm at in my game currently. I could have been farther except that this game has been a pain for the past month given the major intra-version balance changes.
 
I actually finsihed a game of C2C, for the first time ever, last month. I got to the end of the industrial era, before the Goths won a cultural victory. Usually I don't get much past medieval.
 
By far the most balanced is Prehistoric. It's really quite genius how its setup imo. If we ever see this kind of strategic, adaptivity demanding depth in all eras, ... wow.

Then again, its a bit simpler than the other eras too.

To a certain extent you are right, however the Prehistoric era does not really play like civ for the most part. Ancient throuh Renaissance are all perfectly playable and more or less balanced for enjoyment as it stands, and all play more like normal civ.

Do you have that save still? Because that may mean that the Cultural Victory standards need to be raised.

The other option is that was an integer overflow bug with Culture which lead to an inappropriate victory on their part.

Yeah, here it is.

I was surprised because the Goths weren't the most powerful empire (although they had been at one point), and in fact, they were in decline.

I have reached Analyze Strings 10 in my current game and my spaceship is due the very next turn. This is standard size map and snail speed. I played for about 3 months with short breaks waiting for fixes, thankfully provided by Koshling.

I always think a game is not complete if I don´t launch the spaceship. While that was not possible the last time I tried now you have made it possible - thank you C2C team! But wow, this did take long, I think I have to make a break, it really eats up time. But then you are introducing some more great stuff and I have to start again...

:rockon: Awesome man! Thanks for the full PT!
 
Sorry, like vanilla civ. It doesn't have much expansion, and has a lot of exploration and hunting.

Isn't that the point of PreH? Just like all the movies you see, they all put what happened before, then what actually is going to happen.
 
I've made the industrial age before winning domination victories in earlier versions. I have never been close to any other kind of victory yet.

Still on my first C2C game, just about reaching the end of Prehistoric I think (am at work right now, but i think my game's almost at 17,500BC or something - boy those years do fly fast! it was just 60,000BC yesterday...) I think that sums it up pretty well. Rolled an archipelago island map, and on my tiny island continent I was pretty much just sitting there sending my hunters around on an infinite coastal tour loop, flushing out animals from the fog of war.

I like all the new stuff, it's amazing - thank you C2C team! :king: - but I have to say it helped that I spent time reading a bunch of threads here the past week before actually playing (was waiting for v29). Otherwise I wouldn't have known about crime and pollution. Heck, I actually only heard about them, had to poke around the city interface to find them.

Seems my neighbour civs aren't doing well at all, but I think that's entirely my fault - Settler difficulty, everyone basically marooned on their own tiny landmass. I suppose I should reroll a map with less ocean (but I like water in my maps :( ) so that we get a chance to trade with each other instead of just imploding, I guess. Think I'll quit that game and start anew when I get home today.

I'm mostly a peaceful builder type player, raging barbarians + barbarian world + barbarian civs + barbarian generals, it's interesting to watch new civs rise and old ones fall. I tend to stay neutral and keep other civs away (no open borders at all) until my initial cities have matured past their growing pains, but even then I stay out of conflict if possible until I'm finally dragged into it (usually by being forced to pick sides...).

I do the same thing, but alot more options of course. May i suggest then using the Planet Generator, you can make the map YOU want then.
 
I have gotten to Galactic Era before, but it was before Mr.Azure's additional Trans-Human techs. In my Global Warming game I got to almost Industrial before saves just would not load anymore. And in my current game I just reached Renaissance. My goal in that game is to get to the later eras so I can see balance issues. I have a smaller map (Standard) and viewports so I can make sure I get there. However its still on snail speed to test balance for that speed. But it just takes a while to get there. I think I started that game just before v28 was released.
