That game was 3h14 to be fair
If you play with fast combat and movement your game length is reduced a lot. Then I guess it's just play style. By playing slower you'll make less mistakes if you carefully check everything each turn, but I'm a bit lazy :p

To be honest for a science victory, most of your time should be spent in the first 150turns, after that it's a spam fest of end turn only stoping when your cities grow or micromanaging specialists and trades. If you are going for domination your game time like triples due to army micromanagement.

Higher difficulty AI turns also take a bit longer (due to number of units and caravans).
Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

Going in Civ5, what is the must have content pack/expansion? Brave new world? Gods and kings?

I'd like to jump back in it, but don't know which one to get first.

If you had to pick only one get Brave new world. You will get God and kings mechanics included. What you will only miss is the additional civilizations from other DLC and God and kings.

But you should also check if there are some Gold or Complete packs at an affordable price.

When you fail to build a wonder before someone else, all your work is vain and the construction abandonned.


My normal game time is somewhere between 5 and 12 hours depending on the map size. And yes 5 hours is too long as I really only enjoy playing Civ in a single sitting.

whats eating my hours nowadays is galactic civilization 2... (strategic view)
playing a game like this setting, will take you days or even weeks ...
shamelessly promoting galactic civilization 2.... before 3 comes out

back to civ5
haven't played in months now... playing it almost took me a day.... what i said about taking it in an hour is me having defeated.
always playing on normal game settings... with the exception of ai from emperor to diety sometimes....

Galactic Civ 2 was a cool game. Alpha Centauri was one of my favorite on the genre until I realized how to moreless used psionic units to win any game on any difficulty. Overall the appeal Civ has even when it is at times inferior in certain gameplay aspects is that the history element is just so cool. Sins of a Solar Empire was a really good one as well.

Overall I have Civ V to be the best of the Civ series...edging out 4, better than 2...and light years better than 1 and 3. The AI is slightly better than in the prior civs as well, but I still feel like if you just stay alive you win. Or at least in my games that is the way it happens.

the reason why i love galciv2 over any civ is because of its superb ai and very accomodating mods
i have complaints too on civ ai's being 'stupid'
as for any civ and galciv, what matters to me most is the ai... graphics comes 2nd only.

graphics wise, civ5 is UNDENIABLY the best
perhaps the best among civs.... the brave new world....
my other complaints in civ5 (brave new world) is its just too 'peaceful' on early game,
would have prefered gods and kings agressiveness

haven't tried taht sins of a solar empire.... might check it out later

I agree that the AI in Civ5 is too peaceful, especially since BNW.
And wars aren't really that useful too.

It's just some early access thingy for its alpha versions and not the real price that will be used on the final version. I guess that's their idea on how to scare normal people away.

I haven't played this game in a while, but has the game become more resource intensive as of late? Even if I turn down all graphical settings to minimum, I still don't get as good FPS on my laptop as I remember it

Okay guys 1) Post rumors about the new game here (as it it relates to civ) 2) If/when anything is confirmed then you can make a new thread if it exists at all. As it would be a new game in a diff setting.
