I don't pre-purchase a lot and I'm always prepared to be disappointed when I do (I usually am), I would have bought this game a second after release anyways  | ||

Very disappointing fact for me if true. But I'm not surprised, the game looks easy as fuck on his lets plays. I've already bet I'll beat Apollo on my first play... Maybe I'll play more MP this time. "improved it" oh brother | ||

well the higher difficuties = AI get more free stuff than the player, not the AI making better and smarter decisions. So you can technically play deity level by intentionally handicap your self. | ||

Deity just left so little room to have fun imo. Deity in C5 was a joke compared to earlier iterations of the game. I believe I managed to achieve every possible win condition on deity in C5 during the first week of playing it, and I never was very good at civ...

I would argue AI in every single game out there is sub-par and don't pose a real challenge to any competent human players, hence why on higher difficulties the human is gimped and the AI is given freebies. The day when AI can think like a human is the day Skynet strikes I guess. | ||

There is very little an AI can do to gain an edge, there is no reaction speeds and the best it can ever do is a perfectly executed build order. Without cheating the best AI possible is still only just as good as a human. | ||

But chess is a game where all rules are knows beforehand and the entire playing field is visible all the time. In civ, you don't always see the entire map (the lay-out, location of other players, location of resources and so on). So in that sense, making good AI for games like Civ could be hard | ||
