Looks like the first section I had in the achievements listing was correct. Everything in the OP's fine now.platypotamus said:

Unfortunately I'm still balls deep in StarCraft II, with no end in sight. I guess I'll just have to set aside a few sleepness nights for Civ V.

WHERE IS IT? You need to bash that case open and find it. It's there. Dig it out. You might not be alive come Tuesday.DEO3 said:
Civilization V is on my computer. Right now. On MY computer. Civilization V. It's installed on my computer. Right now. My computer. Civ V. HOLY SHIT. On my goddammed computer.
I'm pretty sure if you set up the game instead of just doing a quick play option you could easily disable the domination victory if you really want to raze the original capital city. Honestly, if you capture it, it just means they need to recapture their original capital to be eligible for the domination victory. Sometimes people just hold a super grudge and want to grind their enemies into dust or something like that.dream said:
It only gets weird cause they probably prevent city state razing to make a diplomatic victory easier (if all the AIs hate you but you can get the city states to guarantee votes for you at the UN).
Whatever, someone will mod it or something.
I don't see why you wouldn't be able to raze city states since when you capture them they cease being city states and thus have no votes anyway.
Nvm. Forgot about the whole liberate a city state and they're your best buds mechanic. Pretty interesting that city states can capture other cities.

Just run both at the same time. Play a couple turns of Civ in-between level loads of SC2.Baller said:Unfortunately I'm still balls deep in StarCraft II, with no end in sight. I guess I'll just have to set aside a few sleepness nights for Civ V.

Jealous. D2D won't release my serial so I can preload on Steam. Anyone know what time (and time zone) they release serials? I've never preordered there before.

You should be able to just double click it in your games list
You can find the main theme and some of the music here: http://www.geoffknorr.com/Video Games.htmltrinest said:

Thanks guys, last time I checked (a day or so ago) it still said Preorder there, so I assumed it wasn't updating until release. Glad I asked in this thread, preloading now.
EDIT: hmmm, Steam doesn't call mine the Digital Deluxe Edition, so I hope I still get my babylon.

Civ V just became the first game I added to my favorites list in Steam before it was released
You can copy the Steam data files to avoid the download. I believe it's the "common" folder in "steamapps" but it might include stuff inside "steamapps" as well. Total size of Civ V is about 4.45 GB.punkypine said:

Second to last, which is Cheftain if they keep the same as Civ 4, I really need the first few games to have workers automatized and room to make mistakes without being anihilated; but that'll probably just be the first 3 or 4 games. I'll probably settle at Noble or Prince depending on how it goes.
Also, I just want the sheer pleasure of winning my first game. :lol

So apparently the Bradygames Civ 5 strategy guide is out now? Anyone snag it?

Super pumped for this, but i'm very skeptical about the balance of the Civilizations.
The French, Aztecs and Iroquois seem significantly stronger to me than the Germans, British and Americans (unless you go on a tile buying binge for the whole game).
Its hard to get a read on the other civilizations bonuses because they are more opaque in terms of their real impact, but we'll see.

I first met you in college in 92.
You were so fresh, so deep, so new,
I failed that year all because of you.
We'd bumped into each other now and then,
our friendship rekindling like an old flame.
I'd try to build the full spaceship and fail again.
Obsessively we are together all the time,
me believing your gameplay is sublime,
that I will never tire of your turn-based chime,
of watching our city grow into their prime.
Until I sicken of the very sight of you,
I cannot stop, yet, I must for time has flew,
My other friends and family I cannot enshew
I must leave you now, until we meet again,
Adieu...
