gonna try streaming some gameplay. Single player for now (morocco/ emperor for now), and might do some multiplayer/compstomp later with friends. Don't have my good mic today, so apologies if my webcam mic fucks up -_- | ||

Not the biggest sand castle in the neighbourhood with the most sea shells in it. I don't think history was dominated by entities like Luxembourg, San Marino, Andorra and so on. It makes no sense to punish player for conquests, creating more cities. That is just bad design. | ||

It isn't bad design when a critical part of the design is that there are many strategies which can be adopted and so, many ways to win the game. Sure, so far throughout history, this hasn't happened but that doesn't mean the entire concept is implausible. I concur with the change | ||

I concur with the change The change was implemented to lessen the powers of run-away civs like Hiawatha/China/Rome when they start on a separate continent than the player (i.e. hopefully in BNW you don't have Iroquois rolling up with 50 death robots and carriers and their continent conquered entirely before 1865 AD) | ||

I concur with the change Concept of a small country deciding world's politics IS surreal. Also, I always played the same one strategy, which was to build a cozy empire and watch my science get me ahead of AI by an era or two. There was no reason to even do anything else, since it would be an uphill battle. Deity players abused dumbness of AI to a great extent. Did they make AI more reasonable? Hell no, they made things harder for the player. DoF for RAs and so on. Besides, CiV has this tragic mad-robot component built in, where AI can go insane in couple of turns just because player is going to grab a win. EDIT: AI gets sick bonuses and that's why it seems that big empires = imba. They can afford it. Their bonuses are so big that they WILL settle any land. Civ4 had no problems like that. You overexpand? Welcome to XIXth century Russia, where your army is behind technologically, your government is ineffective, logistics don't exist and every neighbour would like to kick your ass to take your place. | ||

You dont like it, others do. There will be other games taking the old civ place. | ||

I agree. It adds a future incentive to not expanding, like there isnt plenty already in game. | ||
