Civilization V Interview

Best screen cap ever.

Civ V should replace historical textbooks in school. LOL

" Best screen cap ever. "

hmmmm,  
 
"Lincoln Civilization: F.O.R.C.E"

Hexceptional.

Love the disclaimer, I never finished a round of Civ myself because they took so fuckin long.

Peter Murray's Interview I?

These interviews work better when there is some footage to accompany the stuff that the interviewee is talking,

This makes me not want to play Civ IV anymore.

I'm disappointed in Ryan. :(
 
I'm not disappointed in where Civ V is heading, though. :D

So when he mentions panzer general is he saying that civ V will be a one unit per hex game or am I reading too far into it?  It would definitely be interesting if they got rid of unit stacks.
 
edit: I just looked into it, and yeah, no stacks.  this is a pretty huge change.  Can't wait to learn the details.

I don't really even feel like watching this. The giantbomb guys do great coverage for pretty much everything but this type of game.

Ryan is such a Bear.

I played a decent amount of Civ IV against the computer and I never really understood the complexity of it. I would win most of the matches I played, but I never really understood what I was doing haha.

" @Food: Yes they have said that is how it is going to be now. No more stacking a million units on a tile and just storming over everything. Think Advance Wars. "

I'm kinda disappointed by the questions You asked Ryan. Basically the only info is that they make a new UI, graphic engine and change to hexes. I mean the change to hexes is big, but what else does change?

No Lincoln Force in Civilization V =(

Never finished an actual game in Civ ever sadly, but always still enjoyed the game and its many mod type modes it came in Civ IV BTS.

Jesus, that is mind blowing.  I wonder if units will have sizes instead of stacked formations. Like battalion size that can be upgraded to division or something. They can sort of represent health. "

About to say the same thing. "

Yeah, I'm hoping they'll expand on the experience system from the last game to let you make each unit really unique.  I also read somewhere that you no longer loose units if they're defeated.  I wonder how that works?  So many crazy things. "

Ryan is sweaty. It's too hot for CIV V.

I'm a little pissed.  I'm still playing Civ 3.  I bought CIv 4 during the Steam Holiday sale and then my computer crashed.  I still haven't been able to play one minute of CIv 4 and now Civ 5 is being released soon.  Geez.. 

After the amazing game that was Civ 3, I found 4 to be kind of a letdown.  With all of the new gameplay mechanics though, it sounds like Civ 5 might get me back into the series.

Hexes are the new squares.
