What crashes?

Completed 8 full games and plenty of half games without a single crash.

Did someone tried the pitboss mode ? If so does it work fine ?

I had like 20 late game units randomly not being possible to awake after having fortified for ages. Luckily I was only a few turns from winning so it didn't make a difference but kind of eh. Haven't had a crash in about 200 hours of Civilization 5/dlc's.

Same. Had a few units going perma-fortification. Also the game crash if I press f12 (screenshot). Other than that I dont think I´ve encountered any bugs.

I got two crashes yesterday. One was when running mods (and I guess some mods just didn't wanna work well with each other) and the other was when I was trying to temporarily window-tab myself out of the game.

Well, what is it you want to tweak cause the AI could always need some improvement.

Not AI directly, that's a little too advanced for me. I mean stuff like custom buildings ans such, just to try it out.

You mean someone has to run the game 24/7 ?

That's pretty much useless then :/

If you are playing singleplayer F12 is also the button for quick load of some kind. It lags my computer for a sec then load me into an old game of mine where I just started. In multiplayer it just takes a screenshot tho.

I used to alt tab a lot, but realised you don't really miss out on much by going to windowed mode, that way you can also watch streams and stuff while waiting for turns to finish. It's like the ultimate game to play while there's tournaments going on or something.

Won my second game on deity, this time with France, but basically the same strategy as last time. Stay at peace with everyone and push for CS favor at the end just before Bismark finished the Science win/Portugal Culture win. Went with different Social Policies this time, but basically the same game... Has anyone on here ever won on Deity with something other than Diplomacy? Gets a bit boring tbh. Domination seems like it would be tough to pull off though. All in all, I really liked binging on BNW, and just now starting to come up for some air, but maybe time for a break with EU IV releasing in two days. :D

^Can't see the point of PitBoss mode really. A friend and I play multiplayer, and never need to use it, just load up the save game. Not sure what it could be useful or practical for.

Been trying out honor starts as I'm bored with always going the stanard 4-city tradition or liberty, but I'm finding that the unit upkeep costs are insane.

Played as the Shoshone and managed to get 2 early Comp Bow's, those plus a warrior and another pathfinder was my army. Took out France in 40 turns in one game, but I then had -23 gold, no income and therefore no science, couldn't get out of it. I was basically living off the policy that gives gold for kills but that wasn't enough so I was stuck in bankruptcy.

Any tips?

I also force myself to go tradition/liberty every game. Unless you have roaming barbs I dont see how someone would prefere to start with honor. Maybe with Bismarck?

Sell army / buildings / cities / resources / make trade routes I guess, not much else you can do. Doubt killing stuff for money can keep up with -23gpt.

Really you can't see the point of pitboss ? ... Being able to play a game with more people who can't all play at specific hours or for long periods obviously -.- If you play with only one person at the same hours of course you can't see the point in that situation.

As for winning Deity (or other victory conditions for that matter), Diplomacy is currently considered the easy/broken victory. Some people even disable it. The other three is where the real game is at to be honest. There was even a challenge on civfanatics that asked to win by science before the first vote takes place.

The problem with diplo victory is that it usually comes sooner than the other ones. Especially on Deity since the AI will reach modern very quickly. I guess they will patch it to activate when everyone reaches information age or when someone gets globalization (instead of when everyone reach modern or someone reach information age).

Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

Yeah I suppose that is a practical use for pitboss.. sorry, didn't give it much thought. :D I suppose it would be pretty cool if they ever have servers for it. I thought at first it would use the "cloud" on Steam, but kindof useless in its current form.

Agreed, diplo victory is so much easier than the others. I never go into a game planning on going for that win, but use it when all other goals are out of reach. Feels like a hollow victory though.

I don't know if I'd recommend going full honor in the early game in any circumstance. I'm doing it right now with the Romans, and it doesn't feel particularly good, even though I killed off one neighbor and am actively settling a huge chunk of good land. I think that all you need from the honor tree is the free great general. After that, start going liberty.
