stupid, but entertaining. It's like jersey shore with less drinking and fighting.
I agree with TeamM on this one. And take it from another angle. These troops you are wanting to upgrade were not trained to fight with those weapons, armor, or groups. The only way you should be able to combine them like this is if they were Penelized with a "retraining" Period probably equal to half the training time of a new unit.
Face it fro the most part this game. (this genre for that matter) revolves around teching as hard and fast as you can alot of the times. The tech advantage in turn based games is usually one of the biggest edges you can get.
[quote who="BlackRainZ" reply="151" id="2869132"]Is this not being done anymore? [/quote]The last build there is the AI version that went live in the latest patch. So no, not currently.
I think they shouldn't be available till 18 to play as, thats technically an adult. Since you are breeding them and sending them to war. Some activist groups would get really upset over the depiction of children having children and sent off to war probably.
My biggest problem with the game is still the difficulty with the AI. Alot my games start out good, but eventually I wind up running away with it in the long run. I have high hopes that this will be addressed in my first free expansion though. I think the inclusion of the new blood on the team is gonna go a long way towards an amazing game. Right now its mearly a good game, but even that is a huge step up over what I initially paid for.
I will take my 2 free expansions. :) I hope fallen enchantress is amazing. So much potential still in this game.

Fun
Considering they just announced the expansion today for Q2 2011. I would imagine most patch changes will be aimed at it.
me wants, noaw! Can has fallenz enchantressez???
The only post I remember frog making like that is damn near at least 6 months old...your definition of recent is a bit skewed unless you can cite a source.
[quote who="gmot" reply="64" id="2862936"]Sir_Linque, I don't mean to dump on game reviewers - it's tough to hit all the right points about a game, and give a sense of what the game is to people unfamilar with it and also not annoy the hard-corers who know the genre backwards and forwards. I was in publishing for years, so I understand deadline pressure. But would I like to see is initial reviews clearly indicated as such, with the biases as austinvn mentions. And then a more detai
mmmmmmmmmm patches, I love thursday nights at the stardock hotel.
[quote who="Rune_74" reply="133" id="2861191"] Quoting tetleytea, reply 132What's got my eyebrows and ears perked up is how just recently Stardock had layoffs.

Which if your telling him to give it a rest over that then you should just go away. Most of your posts are nonsense one liners w
[quote who="rebelito" reply="19" id="2860830"] Yes. It's called "paying for a product" in this part of the world... how is it called in yours?[/quote]Except you are talking about an upcoming purchase being delayed. As in you don't even own the game. Get lost troll.
[quote who="Scritty" reply="99" id="2860444"] I seem to remember paying rather a lot of money for this game. Arrogant fool[/quote] If 50 bucks is a lot of money to you, then perhaps your broke ass is better off spending less time playing games and more time finding gainful means of increasing your spending capital.
[quote who="Trojasmic" reply="112" id="2856108"]I tried out 1.1D last night and the first city I found was Tarth. Guess what they were building? Yep, you guessed it. Pioneers. No defenders at all and building pioneers so I killed them. Freakin wussy AI![/quote] You are always so insightful and helpful.
This guys a retard just ignore the OP.
[quote who="esomonk" reply="11" id="2795100"]"V1.1 (v1.10) won't be out for a few weeks still as it is a MAJOR change. v1.05 to v1.09 (v1.05 was the day 0 version) were maintainence updates." Damn, I guess I'm going to studying a lot transducers until then.[/quote]Do what I'm doing. Play civ 5 and watch anime. That will kill a few weeks easy.
Guess we will see at 1.1. Hopefully they make it good, if not well my CiV is pretty good, just needs some AI tweaks.
[quote who="Gene1966" reply="3" id="2793369"]What Frogboy needs is help with the logic on the AI... I have seen his video cast of multi-threading the AI to enable it to do more, and that is a GREAT START! The AI needs a lot more logic, there are many, many smart and critical thinking folks here in these forums. Take them and invite them to post in a AI forum themed room and have different AI weaknesses in different threads to be strengthened. AI done right is a massive
sounds like some good progress, I'm waiting to play again till 1.1, just gonna keep lovin on my CiV till then. If this is any indication though 1.1 should be alot of fun.
The ai in civ 5 is pretty good at everything but war. Hopefully they address that. Just little things like properly using their ranged, and building and using planes, ships, etc would be a big improvement. That being said the game is fun. I have 6 Prince wins and am thinking I might do my next game at King.
[quote who="rossanderson48" reply="339" id="2789995"]I've been reading posts from Civfanatics of CIV V burning up video cards like SC II. This doesn't bode well for 2k games or CIV V. Getting Elemental even with its little flaws is not as bad as Civ V now. Besides the Civ games have been done to death. At least Elemental is new an innovating and in a years time you won't even know it and maybe even "multiplayer" will be in the game by then. "_)) I'll get Civ V just like I did Civ IV when all
