Posts from Civilization 4

:smile02: I'm currently playing Civilization 4! It's an amazing game. Are there any fans of this game here?:smile02:

Yes! I play too. It's a very cool game. If you want, we can play together.

Maybe a little later. I currently have internet connection issues at home!:smile39:

I also play Civ4 from time to time.

Is there any add-on with a theme related to Heroes or fantasy?

For me, the Civilization series is the best global strategy game of all time! And the fourth installment is a natural evolution of the series. I like everything about it, except for one thing – there isn't enough of it! It's a shame that I can't play it online.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF CIVILIZATION 5!!!
The rumors and speculations about the upcoming Civilization4: Warlords expansion haven't even died down yet, and at the beginning of the new year, which coincided with the beginning of April at Firaxis, Sid Meier and his team announced the continuation of the Civilization series - Civilization V.

Jeff Briggs has already shared some information with the civru.com website, and here's what he said in his press release: "Although we tried to make Civilization 4 as good as possible, we were informed that not all players liked it. Some complained about too few changes compared to the 3rd part, others about bugs and excessive slowdowns. Some hotheads even accused us of making money. Now it's time for a new product, a completely different game."
By the way, some screenshots are already available.

The new civilization will cover the period starting from the history of primitive man; first, you will have to learn (extract - editor's note) "fire" and build settlements in caves. Then you will have to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the ancient world, the Middle Ages, the new, modern, and post-modern eras. After discovering the "thermonuclear reactor," "super-powerful telescope," "planetary bases," and the 3rd upgrade of the spaceship, other planets will become available for colonization. The game doesn't end there: competition takes place on several planets simultaneously.

The game features a fully three-dimensional world, including the planet itself.
About 100 civilizations, including Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, Transnistria, Moldova, and several other unnamed civilizations (possibly alien - editor's note).
About 200 sciences, including "marine cities," "intergalactic teleporters," "mind control," "planetary consensus," "linguistic literacy," and "universal quorum."
Resources: Ural, Brent, and Light Sweet oil, with different prices.
New buildings and wonders of the world, such as: "Mausoleum (Lenin's Home - in the original)," the Eighth Wonder of the World, the World Trade Center, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, etc.
Units: Laser Archer, nanotank, blaster infantry, and quasigun.

In keeping with the scale, here are the recommended system requirements for the game, which is scheduled to be released in 2007-2008:
Pentium Conroe (dual-core) or AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+
1 GB RAM 1066MHZ DDR3
512 MB RAM ATi X2800 or NVidia 8800GT DirectX 10 compatible
1280*1024 minimum
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi EAX 4.0
18 GB HDD
Blue-Ray or HD-DVD 2x
Windows Vista Service Pack 1

Everything would be fine, but I can't even run 4 Civ games on one computer, and the other one doesn't have a DVD drive! Maybe someone has a NO DVD version? I really need it!

There's no arguing that Civilization is a truly global game. I also played parts 3 and 4, and the downside is that they don't change much from one part to another. But overall, it's a great turn-based strategy game!
Right now, I'm hooked on the strategy game Empire Earth, which is also pretty good. It's bright, fast-paced, and almost an analogy to Civilization, but in real-time and a bit more visually appealing.

I hope that the fifth installment of the game will be released soon, and it will be revolutionary! Because space and war between planets are awesome!

Yesterday, I bought the Civilization 4: Warlords expansion. It's really a great game.

That’s impressive. But still, some fan-made add-ons for the third game had features that would look good even in the fourth game. For example, a huge number of resources, unique units depending on the FACTION (not the nation), and so on.

Yes, I absolutely agree. You know what I was laughing about in "Heroes"? The fact that the mausoleum was included in the list of wonders of the world. And it's cool to build it, for example, for the Incas.

Yeah, it's fun. I've always liked the ability to create a new story. I remember how I played the third Civilization... And how I was obsessed with the first one... The fourth one was almost the game of my dreams. I'm looking forward to the fifth installment.

Guys, what's going on?
Or is it just me who has played Oblivion? Almost all the screenshots are from Oblivion. And where there's a city, it's from Heroes 5, and where the resolution is minimal, it's from Civilization 1. Was this review posted on April Fool's Day? Anyway, thanks to comrade Vanu. I had a good laugh!:smile54: :D

5. Civilization will be a SUPER game... but... the system requirements are very high... :(
