Look you may have been playing this for 30 years and im only 27, but playing strategy games from the age of 7, and growing up in what i consider the prime era of the pc game, TBS can be finished regularly. Having computer players helps, you can do AI versus human. If you and your friends can only play by PBEM then you guys just arent into the games that much. Even losing in a TBS we never just quit. When your dead your dead. If your friends quit on you that just shows there dedication, if you

Dude. Seriously? We bang out 20+ hours of Civ4 in a weekend. You can disagree all you want but at the end of the day people want a starting point, and that starting point is single player. So it only makes sense to have the mutiplayer game be the same as single. Im not saying its the only way the game can be played, im simply saying multiplayer and single player should be one in the same. By the way, when you use the term "In Fact" then proceed to say things that are no

Hopefully at some point StarDock will make a real move towards saying multiplayer will end up EXACTLY like single player. Then let us mod it from there. Anything less is a joke.

All sounds great. However before you base the amount of work that will be put into multiplayer simply based on how many people are playing it, Id take a look at how well multiplayer works. We tried playing it the other day, it was buggy, things didnt really work right, one game we got no monsters or heros, the next we got heros, and the next we got both. Its going to be hard to sit down a

CIV 5 *looks* more polished. It has more features right now. However CIV5 has crappy turn by turn performace. My machine will blow the socks off alot of peoples, I didnt have performance issues like alot of people did with Elemental. However in CIV, even small map few players, turn to turn lag is hell. The AI is retarded, like seriously retarded. There are some balance issues but the way the game is played i think they are harder to notice. Elemental half the races are exactly the sam

Sorry in todays world, there is no reason to go through the extra hassle of play by email or hotseat. If you cant afford two computers and two games, play chess :p

" -Terrain tiles should light up when the Sovereign walks on them, just like Michael Jackson in the Billie Jean video clip. The Sovereigns should also be singing Billie Jean as they walk." Love that idea. Also was there a Lords of the Realm 2 quote in there? ;)

Modding currently is buggy as hell in Civ5. Not to mention Civ5 jipped having animations in multiplayer, so everyone just kinda teleports around. Now i know people had performance issues with Elemental and some still do, but Civ5 going between turns is retarded slow. My machine is pretty powerful as well. I just hope elemental when finished up with patches and updates, has the same multi options as single. Same game.

I have been playing a ton of Elemental been enjoying it and each patch gets better and more stable. Its also nice to see our feedback going into the updates. Yes launch was messy but hey it happens. Want to know something odd though? I know you do. Civ 5, purchased it 10am yesterday morning. 1. Logged in... have to play though steam which pisses me off. 2. Mods dont work for most people. They give some odd work around but it doesnt work for most. 3. Wit

Using only heros, with bows and magic, on hardest difficulty, while building only one city i was able to win. :) Not sure what your having issues with, build more archers and i think youll be fine.

lol reading his posts actually made me giggle. Id start a new map if i were you. Sounds like you got a bad draw, started a map to test 1.08 on and i had a normal amount of resources, Kraxis to my east had a better draw but i killed his Sov so f-him. I do notice a flood of monsters. But magic at least does some damage now.
