Yeah I feel you man. We are on the same boat here. Try download the demo though.
The decision to make this title a Steamwork title seems very bad. I heard that even you purchase a physic copy of the you still need Steam and wait untill the exact release date to play it...wtf -_-

I don't know if this will work, but can you sign up for a new steam account (and register as USA) and download the demo?

I bought the game and I live in the USA so this doesn't effect me. It's something to try if you're EU and can't download the demo, though.

@snotboogie. First of all, awesome name. Love The Wire. Second, I usually play civ4 co-op with friends on high handicaps (monarch, emperor) and aggressive AI and all sorts of stuff that makes it harder, to have the multiplayer feel without getting warrior rushed when you random a Civ that starts with scout. When I sit down to play a Civ game, I want a few hours of enjoyment, but multiplayer PvP civ4 has always been a poor experience for me.

Will see what Civ5 is like, though. I think its pretty hard to rely on random opponents being able to set aside the amount of hours that I'd want to for a nice long game without interruption. Maybe it'll be different, though.

Also interested in starting a civ5 succession game here on TL after maybe a week, so we all have some hands-on time to discover whats what. Will post the sign-ups as soon as I load it up and get some hands-on to make sure its possible/feasible.

If they make succession games impossible I can hear a large groaning from a decent number of people. And if you make the SG at a low enough level I'll join. I really need to actually play through games this time though, I was always forgetting to save in Civ4 since I wasn't used to the game length being so long.

Man, this decrypting files is killing me


Sweet. I just got home and decrypted so I'm going to spend some sweet, sweet quality time with Civ5 right this moment. I'm going to post a succession game sign-up thread this evening, though (maybe tomorrow morning.)

It's the retailers in your country that are responsible for that, not Steam nor 2K. Countries with retarded retail laws are going to get the game later than the USA. Deal with it.

the game will be installed into the steam folder

you can use this tool to move individual steam games to different pathes/drives

http://www.traynier.com/software/steammover

and for the non-north americans: if you use a proxy or vpn which gives you a us ip adress you can decrypt the civ 5 files, set steam to offline mode until friday and play. there is a thread somewhere on civfanatics.com, but at the moment it's overloaded, so i can't link to it

Using Steam is pretty common nowadays, same with the "you can only play at releasedate".

And Steam is very very good atm, it sucked in the beginning, but Valve improved it a lot. I don't think the decision is bad. I like it because using Steam has many benefits once you have friends there etc.

game was pretty fun when i was playing earlier, lotsa changes i've noticed that will make combat sooo much better/strategic. the only thing is i really don't like the new ui... i thought the civ4 ui was wayyy better, but maybe it will just take some getting used to.

For people who crash on the intro video, there is an ini tweak to skip the video that solved the crash for some people. I think the ini is in toe MyDocuments folder and the thing to change is around 15 lines down, change 0 to 1 for skipintro or something like that.
