Hi everyone. I posted this last night, but apparently, for some reason, it never posted properly. I came back to check and see and cannot find it.
I have BNW, been playing CIV for many years all the way back to the original game. Since CIV V came out, I have noticed a logic error and wonder if anyone else has noticed this. It is a minor annoyance (something that makes no sense but the AI does it anyway). In no way does it degrade game play or cause problems other then something happens that makes no sense.
Here is the situation. I am buying up land near an opponent. The opponent feels threatened because I get a message through diplomatic channels (the diplomacy screen) from the opponent saying they notice I am buying up land they consider to be (their own).
I tell them basically, to mind their own business, I do what I want. That is NOT a promise, remember. It is just a statement of fact that I will buy what I want when I feel like it........They come back saying they are disappointed in me (as if I care).
Well, for whatever reason, I get on with playing the game and don't happen to buy additional land that was in question near that opponent. Maybe 30 - 50 moves later, I get a message pop up at me saying:
"YOU KEPT YOUR PROMISE!"
Point in question is, I never promised not to buy more land near that opponent, I just decided to play the game elsewhere and do other things and in the mix, buying land, just go lost...but I never promised, I told the opponent to mind their own business and I would do what I wanted to do. It is illogical for the game to come back and say I kept a promise I never made.
Can the game developers figure out this logic glitch and fix it? Has anyone else noticed this? I did the search thing on this forum for any similar report and could find nothing.
Anyone else notice this?
Thanks guys.
