Nice...

Can't. I'm in recovery. Been sober since Civ 4. Still remember my first hit. Back in college started playing with a friend around 3 in the afternoon. Looked up and it was 2:30 am. So good yet so destructive.

I remember the first time I heard the birds chirping in the morning after playing all night.

No doubt I'll get it. Anyone know what's new and improved?

Looks good. It's on my list.

I started with Civ I when I was in college. I remember playing during a Huricane scare that never materialized in Miami (Erin?).

I was hooked right there. I played I, II, III and IV, but I never took to the MAJOR engine changes that were in V. I doubt I will play VI.

Hexes are for worshiping satan. not playing civ!

Finally...

CIV V I just despised from day 1. Still have Civ IV.

 

[PatsFan2003]

I think IV is still my favorite but I liked V too. I didn't like the de-emphasis on religion. I understand the need to be global with a game like CIV since I think it's one of those games that is indeed played world-wide but Religion is just such part of the equation in these games that it didn't seem right.

I liked the single unit change in V. Anyone remember Panzer Leader? Moved the game away from assembling monsters stacks of units and actually produced a different approach to the military aspect of the game.

Try the Civ V mods for religion. I also read that brave new world DLC has it too, but I don't have that DLC. I have for sure seen it in the mods though.

The single change unit was ok, good overall but I think in the changes they mention about VI will improve them. Some stacking would be nice

I like the corps and army ideas. I was going to get the mods for religion but then Total War Rome II happened and then X-Com and then Fallout4..

Just picked up the all-inclusive bulk version with ALL DLCs yesterday and took my first test drive yesterday.

It looks like it jettisoned the parts of V that killed it for me, and reverted back to more of a traditional Civ experience. Though, the lack of a committed road system is a bit hard for me to get behind (so far, I am still trying to figure it out).

I think I will start a second test drive today with a new leader, again, just to get a better feel. I played with Lincoln yesterday, have no idea who I will try today.

I haven’t played a Civ game in quite some time, I think the last one I played regularly was Civ III Conquests but I’ve always been a fan of Sid Meier stuff including Pirates!

I have fond memories of playing the original Pirates! on our Apple IIGS as a kid.

And as far as games with a road system, me and my buddies used to play Settlers back in the day also, of course that’s tabletop. Lol

I always random leaders/cultures. I also didnt like not being able to do roads, you can send traders to cities and that creates roads between them...not sure if other ways
