I don't know if anyone is as excited as I am for this game but I figured I'd start the official post so that folks can line up online games and discuss anything related.


Add me to your friends list if you are interested in some MP action:

I have been looking into this, I have never played a Civilization game before, but this really seems to have caught my eye. It is turn-based correct?
I've had the game for about a week; I imported from the UK

still yet to play an MP game, since not many are on yet.


my GT is in my sig



by the way, what took so long to get an official thread for this title? limited interest??

Yes. Download the demo and give it a try. It's an absolute blast. I'm about 70% sure I'm going to pick this up today over UT3...

I'm excited for this game, but disappointed they excluded Wonders and Artifacts from the game that they had ready at launch.
I would like to know how you apply workers to specific tasks?

Is it just me, or does that have a very "Soviet" feel to it? I love it, but it makes me feel like I'm living in the "workers paradise"


Should have used Ron Paul instead of Abe


Can't wait to pick this up after work. I just about burnt myself out of the demo

are you connected? if not, you may want to call ahead, I don't believe it's on shelves today

Really? Why's that, a delay? I'll call ahead for sure. GameCrazy is pretty good about getting them on time
not sure

I know Amazon says the 10th, and many others have said not until the 9th
bah, that's lame. I just called gamecrazy and they said tomorrow. That sucks. I'm moving on Thursday and probably won't get any quality time with this until next week
Anyone get their copy from Gamestop today? I haven't called yet because something came up at work and we've all had to work like mad through lunch (when I was going to go) and probably won't get there until 7 tonight now.


Just curious if they were in or if I should still call and make sure...
I'd still call first

Amazon said 7/11 this morning, now says IN STOCK
w00t! it was in!

I'm curious - is this more like Civ IV or Civ III?
never played III, but from the demo it seemed very close to IV
