Good luck on your launch in 10 days. I am certain this has been addressed by this time, but just for the record, I've seen some pretty erratic behavior in events scheduling. Example 1: I am building in a city and suddenly the I am interrupted by the turn changing. Example 2: I am about to enter a fight and I am interrupted by an announcement of a city improvement. The general trend when this misbehavior happens is that one event does not comp

Just got the latest patch. Persistent problem with the pop-up info window which comes up when you sprite over a location or character. It comes up but never goes away. Not good. Also got an error while a character was moving on the map with the BSOD and the message that the application was trying to access memory it could not access. The bloody details are here. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/

Arrrggghhhh!!!!! I've been waiting for the update for months. Now I have it and I am wondering how back burner this project has become. The memory management is NOT improved; it is more sluggish now than before and to top it off, the game crashed mid-battle. The screen just goes black; the machine has not really crashed- it just SHUTS DOWN!! There is not even a Windows message on reboot that indicates the OS thinks there is a problem. I tried to upload the d

@ alaknebs: Nothing "ish" about it! Grab a pair of red/cyan glasses and I will jump off the page. On second thought, that might not be the droid you are looking for. For those interested in my anaglphy 3D stuff: http://www.webtales.us <p

Right you are. Originally, I thought the Soverign was tied to the Intelligence requirement. After a few more iterations of the game, and your note, I see I was mistaken.

So my first question is, how does this change in staff impact the delivery of v1.2? My second question is, will the "out of memory" error be fixed in the next release?

"It may have been called Sid Meier's Civilization V on the box, but the real creative mind behind the game was young lead designer Jon Shafer. But after getting a chance to lead the development on one of the biggest PC franchises there is, Shafer decided to leave Civ developer Fireaxis to pursue other interests. And now he has announced just what those interes

Re: Glowing Ember I'm not sure I understand your point. Any of the Sovereign kids or Imbued could cast the Spell of Making if they were the first to level up to 100 points of Intelligence. I like it that each spell has an Intelligence requirement; if your Sovereign does not have that many Intelligence points, she/he can't cast the spell. In the past, I would spend a certain number of level up points on increasing hit points, strength or dod

Do you want the good news or the bad news first? The good news? I thought so. After chewing up days playing the new game, I find it a much richer experience than 1.0. Thanks.The balance is much better and the scaling is much more commensurate with the growth of the kingdom. The search for food as the main priority at the beginning of the game is right on. In the context of the story line, it makes perfect sense. The new tech trees are prett

One more thing. "Elemental" reminds me in many ways of the old Microprose classic, "Darklands." If you are looking for a model to beef up your subquests, this would be a good place to start. The early subquest maps could be simple; the more advanced ones more maze like, more dangerous and more rewarding. Since I think the odds on getting the pony are short, I will settle for this instead.

Pretty amazing! I ask about the next game upgrade on Monday and there it is on Tuesday. So, can I have a pony? :) Loaded up the game and while it is familiar, it has a entirely different feel from 1.09. Seems I will have to learn this game all over again, which is not a bad thing. My first impression is the game has a different sensibility about it; an entirely different vibe. I know that is borderline incohere

So I have an Lenovo T60 running at 2Gz with 3GB RAM and I am having memory issues. Like, the game just locks up after a certain turn and that is all she wrote. So I went to your site to verify what the basic requirements to run the game were. You don't seem to have them listed anywhere obvious that I can see. This is not good. On your HOME PAGE for the game, you should specify what the processor speeds. RAM requirements and disk requirements are. This is pretty basic st
