Official Civilization Thread

[Chris the Human]

Dammit! I dug the new setup for civics!

[Ruki]

Fuck, Civ coming out on the 360, I will be ALL OVER THAT. Even though I suck at the game. I would play it more, but my computer sucks.

[Bushmeister]

Plus, like it or not, Civilization lends itself horribly for online play. It is hardly even worth it to fire it up at drunken LAN parties.

Although it is funny when all our games break down when someone discovers Judaism and everyone starts trying their damnedest to raze every city with Jewish faith in them.

[stokeriño]

I have to imagine that the 360 achievements for Civ will be awesome.

And, more importantly, ones I might actually be able to complete for once.

I love Civ 4 but it is SLOW..................AS...........................FUCK on my computer by the time I get to the Industrial Age. Makes me very sad indeed.

Does anyone know anyway to get this beautiful, beautiful game to work on Vista? I've been dying to play it since we got the snazzy new PC, but it won't work.

How do you mean doesn't work? If you mean it installs and plays but doesn't show all of the map and/or the leaders heads, that's your graphics card, not Vista.

[probablyoliver]

As in it installs but it doesn't play. At all.

[Gongsun Zan]

I don't think its a Vista issue, I have Civ IV Complete on my com, and it works just fine.

Update your drivers and stuff?

[IAceI]

I'm considering installing this game again and getting back into it, maybe when exams start to wind down so I have a bit of time to play

[MDK]

Superbump.

Anyone fancy a quick multiplayer game of civ4?

[stokeriño]

Is there such a thing as a quick multiplayer game of Civ IV? ¬_¬

And I'm going to make this the official Civilization thread because, fuck it, Revolution's out in a few weeks and I know I'll be playing.

Duel map

Ancient start

Advanced start (200 points)

Quick mode

I haven't played a multiplayer with those settings before but its pretty quick when I'm just playing against the comp.

[MDK]

Somebody must want a quickie?

[stokeriño]

Apparently not. >_>

[MDK]

Absolute bastards.

If it makes it any sweeter I'm not all that good at it.

Somebody must want a quickie?

Yeah, but I usually go for women. >_>

[Ruki]

I will be picking up Revolution, that is for sure. Can I play with you then Stok? I WANT TO BE YOUR FRIEND!

[stokeriño]

Would I bother buying Gold again for Civ?

Tricky...

[Ruki]

Yes, yes you would.

Although I really hope you'll be able to save online games with your friends, otherwise you'll be sitting there for 6 hours, never once completing a game.
