McCordRm Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 One more thing... I can't figure out how to view the actual Hexes. That is, show the hex outlines all the time. I found where to turn on showing resources, but I can't find one for hexes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curme Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 I preordered it, but didn't know know it had that steam POS. :( I'm on dial-up, so it takes me a couple of days for the game to load up before I can play it. In fact, I wanted to play Empire:Total War today, but I can't play it unless I log into steam, and now steam is saying that my account is disabled. So I guess I won't be playing that for a couple of days. I remember the good old days when you could just put in a cd and play a game. :angry: EDIT: It looks like I'm not playing Mafia 2 today either. I wish I could cancel my CIV V order. It's just not worth the hassle of that malware called STEAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ci7 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 oh forgot to say i am kinda impressed how they pushed cutting edge techs Recomanded: Windows 7 DX10/11 Quad core processor kudo for optimizations :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCordRm Posted September 26, 2010 Author Share Posted September 26, 2010 My dual-core plays it just fine. I haven't had the issues with slowness others keep talking about. Hell, I can't wait to get off work and go home to play some more. Just an hour or two, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lalalawawawa Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Eh... you can install it from the DVD. Yes, but with every launch the game calls home... That's his problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Laidher Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I dont have the patients for this type of game play anymore.Back when I was younger I could sit in front of the screen and not get bored with it.But now it bores me to much to play something of this style more than 20 minutes.

GreenMartian Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Played the 100-turn demo. Was really impressed with it. Gonna wait a while till the price goes down a bit, though. Trying to take a city is kinda hard. Though I guess it's good in that we don't easily lose cities in the first few hundred turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treemonster Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Yes, but with every launch the game calls home... That's his problem. steam does have an offline mode for people like him on dial up so it only calls home once per install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi89 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I'm loving this game. Pre ordered it on steam a few months ago. Combat is so much better and so is the new tile system. It gets a little slow at times but I'm assuming that its just my cpu, I've got a core 2 duo and the only place it slows down a little is after my turn when it says that its working out what everyone else is doing. The graphics look quite nice as well :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kussie Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Argh this game really needs some optimizations and fixes soon. It's hell on my system, which not the greatest but should be able to handle it. (Q6600, 260+ GTX 3GB ram, Windows 7 64 bit) It's fine in the early game, but later on it begins to get very very laggy and poor. I'm playing a fairly big game with quite a number of units, and i can't load my save game because it will crash my game a few seconds after it's loaded. Which sucks having spent all weekend on that game and i was so close to victory. The game will also lag for about 30-50seconds when trying to open the diplomacy window every time.
