Playing on marathon will day MORE then a full day to complete. Decent AI, and the desire to play the loads of civilizations until the last empire is crushed keeps bringing me back. Civ 5 can take the usually Boring TBS strategy and make it fun again. I've lost my copy ages ago and cant find a new one. Earth map where the aztec's had all of North and South America fortified with better tech. A save game I put on a 3.5 Disk and lost. However, the most fun I ever had in a Civ game was Civ 1.

Giant Death Robot made it drop that extra. So something was done right if I'm still playing. I've put in 30 hours playing on a huge map with 14 civs going for a military victory. There's stuff that will push away some Civ 4 fans, but there's also a lot of novel ideas put into form. That means the franchise is still going at it. Over all I very happy they are trying such (relatively) radical ideas with the Civ series. I'm sure the DLC / Exp's will address some of this, while I'm not the most keen on the idea of DLC, whatever works. It needs more in the way of leaders and diplomacy, but I've come to really enjoy it. I gave it a real attempt a few weeks ago and found myself warming up to it. I had my issues with it and I put it down for a bit. My first attempts at this game were met with mediocrity. like: -2: Our close borders spark tensions. It at least needs the little tooltip that pops up when you scroll over another civ's name that tells you the + points and - points.

I'm okay with the tech tree, but one thing that really bothers me is the "Giant Death Robot." Sorry, but that belongs in a scenario not the normal tech tree. but it is something a lot of people liked. Social policies are neat, but they need some form of revolution put into them. It does put more focus on open ground than before. One unit per city is also more of a good change than a bad one. This is a trade off really, but a change for the better in my opinion. There's things missing, things done well and things done not so well. Civ V is just like all the other civs, a remake on the previous one.

Frankly I'd much rather have a remake of Alpha Centauri than a new civ, but thats beside the point. This is a trade I've played all of the Civ's. So if your a fan of the civ franchise for the builder aspect of the game, i'd recommend sticking with civ 4. My biggest gripe in this game is that you don't feel like you are running a civilization, you feel like your playing just another game. moreover theres not much encouragement to make strong allies in the game because you know that eventually they'll just backstab you anyway because there not national leaders they are players trying to win (often very poorly too).

diplomacy is a huge let down, it was obviously programmed to make them seem like players rather than nation leaders. When i did it was pretty fun, combat is improved from previous iterations, social policies are pretty awesome. moreover theres not much encouragement to make strong allies in the game At first i didnt really seem to enjoy this game, it took me a little while to get into it. … ExpandĪt first i didnt really seem to enjoy this game, it took me a little while to get into it. I recommend thsi game to enyone who is short of hate and / or boredom. Mulitplayer is broken, but totally ROCKS according to the devs. Your opponents (barbarian tribes and barbarian boss tribes) don't know who they are what they are where they are and what they are supposed to do, so it is a single player. Everything else is more or less autopilot. Most of the time is spent navigating the mouse pointer and hitting "end turn" about 300 times. I takes about 10 hours to beat the game on STEAM difficulty. It also helps to be intoxicated while playing. Controls are limited and it is best played with a gamepad. Your opponents (barbarian tribes and barbarian boss Civ5 is a rather bad action game.
