Your normal game rules

[Rohili]

What are your normal game rules (those options which are enabled/disabled at the setup page)? I normally have all default settings except for accelerated production (on), AI respawn (off) and culturally-linked start (off).

 

[tR1cKy]

Default.

EDIT: Ok, a bit more of explanation. All victory conditions on (more challenge, more fun, more option etc). Acc prod OFF - don't want to hit the IA in the 10AD, it seems ridiculous. Preserve seed ON, it would be too tempting to reload when a fight goes bad or a city revolts etc. Standard maps. Usually 70% water, normal, temperate, 4 billion (the default settings), but sometimes all random.

 

[Tomoyo]

Usually the default, but with Preserve Random Seed on and Cultural linked and AI respawn off.

 

[Pentium]

Default. All win conditions make the game more chalenging. An the seed think on.

 

[island007]

Default with Random seed on, AI respawn and link off, map and others all random.

 

[sealman]

Default with Random seed on, AI respawn and link off, map and others all random.

I am the same. I also choose my civ via the random option.

Edit: I also play with the multiplayer victory conditions off (elimination, regicide, ect.)

 

[Renata]

Same as most here, except I also turn off SGLs in C3C. They annoy me.

[rysingsun]

mainly defaults. i choose my own civ and world setup paramaters. almost always use pangea.

 

[mikezang]

Usually the default, but with Preserve Random Seed on and Cultural linked and AI respawn off.

Same as you.

 

[Flintlock]

Conquest Victory, Domination, and sometimes Spacerace on.
SGLs on.

Everything else, off.

 

[Turner]

Mostly off, except for whatever wins I feel like going for.

 

[Aardvark]

I see most have cuktural link off. What does it do?

 

[Turner]

In C3C it's bugged. You always end up starting next to the American subgroup civs.

I always wondered what it was I did to make that one go away!
Anyway, default settings, world is usually Standard, Random, with Random Civ, etc. SGLs on, though I really ought to play with them off I always forget.

Whats wrong with sgl's? ...besides the fact that you never ever get one anyway.
=(

 

[Lkysam]

I always turn off Diplo, this is so unrealistic and annoying it isnt even funny. Everything else is on, but now that I know about the culturally linked start bug I will turn that off

 

[dresdor]

Random Everything!!! Muahahahahahahahahaha!!!!

Civ specific abilities on, which makes it fun because it's random.

Everything else I dunno. Whatever it's preset at.

Nothing, except for the Scientifc Golden Age not working.

 

[Solomwi]

I don't suppose turning off SGLs returns GW-rushing ability to MGLs, does it?

If so, I can see why you'd play with them off, and may have to consider it myself.

My settings: Huge, 60% water, everything else middle setting, conquest and domination on, sometimes space race, all other victory conditions off (culture's too easy on a huge map and diplo's so easy to block it may as well not exist in my games), random seed off (because I'm not bad to reload, and if I were, I'd just do something else before that battle to eat that seed anyway ), respawn off, culturally linked off.
