Re: Civilization V
I don't know about you guys, but my screen likes to freeze up a lot. I should probably turn on the auto save if I'm going to get past 20 turns...
Other than that, the game is absolutely fantastic from what I can tell.

Re: Civilization V
That was an arcade game, while the civilization series is known for it's depth and complexity. These are the two things arcade games lack.Avenged wrote:What do you mean I wasn't a real civ game?

Re: Civilization V
I played Civ 5 at a relatives house, it's quite a step down from Civ 4.
But hey, there's a 5 on the box!

Re: Civilization V
This is the first Civ game I've played, so I can't say much about how it compares to previous installments... but it's been hard for me to get into. Like any strategy game (perhaps even more-so than usual), Civ takes a few games to get the hang of... and when each game takes an entire day of non-stop playing, I can't help but give in to the itch to switch over to SC2.
Re: Civilization V
they're not the same type of game at all.
Starcraft is an RTS with all that entails
Civ is about management more than anything else, really

Re: Civilization V
its essentially an X4 game, more like Sins of a Solar Empire than Starcraft 2.

Re: Civilization V
I'm not saying they're the same type of game. I'm just saying that I'm not patient enough to learn the ins and outs of Civ. Learning a slow game takes much longer than learning a fast game.

Slow does not mean more thoughtful. Merely means more time to think. Starcraft is extremely fast-paced and simplistic compared to other RTS's, its also one of the most thoughtful.

Re: Civilization V
Civ is one of the most horribly time consuming things ever. You play it like a round or two of halo, but that round lasts 7 hours!
The new patch is out. Major infinite city sprawl balance (happy resources now 4 instead of 5 etc). AI is waaaay better at war (though still dumb).
Good times all around. I've spent about 40 hours in the last fortnight and am trying for Immortal. Damn holidays.
