I have heard that there are sounds in the city that help you.
One of the more popular ones that people say they have heard is if you have a great prophet or regular prophet (not sure if it matters) in you city, and an AI is going to attack, you can hear the prophet warning the people about a war.
I have never heard it, but I have to admit that I rarely play with the sound on.
I don't know, but I think my computer runs faster with the sound disabled on the game. lol
no no.. it's just part of the regular background noise on the city screen.. (I don't have BUG)
in early Eras, it plays like EVERY time you open a city screen.. sounds like 2 guys murmuring. and if you are scrolling through cities, it will continue to play every 20-30 seconds.
I swear that's what they are saying!!
"We Have Enough On Our Hands Right Now" --- response to asking for a military alliance against someone... it's a sure sign that they're in a military buildup, and the target might be you!
It's so useful that people tend to check for it on the diplomacy screen, and some MODS like BUG/BAT make it easier by showing you an icon on the scoreboard.
I never noticed that it triggered prophets to yell! That's nifty.
I always thought it sounded more like...
"Is this it?"
"I guess so."
