Not trying to take away from 1.1 which I've been enjoying and getting even more excited for whats to come, but this looks pretty crazy too. I think I'll give it a go tomorrow. Updates to Sid Meier's Civilization® V have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include: [AI] [TACTICAL AI] - Proper evaluation of which enemy units can reach my units next turn. - Sor

Ooh, clever... I'll have to remember that.[/quote] Some insight on how well this works or if it works at all would be pretty interesting.

Ummmmmmm, run itunes in the background? I shut the game music off a long time ago.

Yeah I didn't realize 1.09q came out today until after I posted this. Makes sense now. 1.09p has been very stable for me and the changes are great! Its amazing how far this game has come.

So I guess this is the 1.09q patch. Says 1.08 when I run the game.

Just started up the game and its telling me that v1.08 is available. I'm confused. Choosing not to update to an earlier version for now. Been enjoying 1.09p don't need a step back. Is this a mistake of some sort?

Trying to get better with Zerg and Toss. Ah, well, my advice is first learn one race well and then move on to another race. Trying to learn all of them at once in simply confusing. I placed in the Silver League and worked my way into Gold before trying any race other than Proto

Looking for some good, free SCII resources with build orders and general strategy. I use Liquipedia and youtube at the moment. Trying to get better with Zerg right now. Know a few good sites?

"The move away from litigation represented a major shift in strategy forthe music industry group, which had filed lawsuits against some 35,000 people for online music piracy since 2003." 35k since 2003? Pfffft, they aren't trying that hard. But yeah, ridiculous punishment for the equivalent of shoplifting. People still use Kazaa?

[quote who="FadedC" reply="12" id="2811939"] What was it that caused you to bring this up?[/quote] Honestly... reading too much BS on the internet about pretty much every game that's released. Its my own fault for that. I understand that gameplay and balance are much more important than passive bugs and glitches but whats annoying me and what im really referring to is how everyone has become a critic these days. Saying that "all PC games were buggy" is an ove

I guess I just never got the memo about when we started taking things so seriously and expecting perfection out of anything that's released. Bugs were something that existed in games, you found them, they were there, and they generally stayed there. It didn't stop people from playing the games they enjoy or supporting the companies behind them.

...and it wasn't really that big of a deal? Whats with the sense of entitlement that gamers have these days? Its like every little thing is a game breaker for people. Almost as if people want to make themselves sound more hardcore than the next by bitching about problems in a game that they're obviously interested in or enjoying to some extent in the first place. Not even talking about Elemental specifically, but it just seems like more and more people are complaining about the little things

[quote who="BlackRainZ" reply="37" id="2811579"] I understand Mr. Frogboy and I like that they are doing something but i like to see my total population too. It just isn't the same looking at a 3 or a 4. It kills immersion for me. I loved building massive cities and seeing thousands of people for my population. Seeing a 3 and having to pretend that means 3000 or something just isn't the same Can't we have both? [/quote] This gripe is just plain silly.

Great post.

You're absolutely right FadedC.

Its funny how Steam has become the deciding factor for whether or not some people play this game. I guess the actual game doesn't matter, its the silly little program running in the background that's really important. [e digicons]:|[/e]

planing? realising? deficiently? listing to us? Please tell me English is your second language, or that you're drunk. I've lost enough faith in humanity without reading things like this.

I just don't understand how Steam is fucking anyone in the ass. My only experience with it is that it runs in the background while I play a few of the games I own. It doesn't cost me any money, it doesn't try to sell me anything, it doesn't really use any memory, its just kind of there. I've never bought anything off of Steam or Impulse and have never felt pressured to do so. I understand if requiring an internet connection to play an offline game is an issue for some people and agree that's

I honestly don't see what the big deal is. I feel like the whole thing is blown out of proportion.

I think it automatically installs. Might not have an option.

Updates to Sid Meier's Civilization® V have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include: UI * Fix for production prompt that sometimes appears with newly created puppet states that could stop the player from being able to end the turn. * Aircraft banner corrections - now when you rebase an aircraft, the number will move with it. * Resource icons now come up with Ctrl-R again,

[quote who="ZehDon" reply="82" id="2808600"]however, it's that Gothic Horror and deadly serious atmosphere that makes Diablo what it is, and it's that atmosphere that's missing from just about everything Blizzard has shown.[/quote] They haven't really shown much.
