lol, i am still here laugh.gif

I've been hanging out at the Civilization Revolution official forum, meeting other players, exchange & perfecting my strategy.
Some of us top 10 players are having friendly match from time to time, great fun tongue.gif (the no.1 player is an arrogant bastard though, haven't really play him yet.)

lol your wife into strategy game? Pretty cool. Anyway, this is a turn-based game.

The difference between the pc & console version is the graphic & depth. Civilization Revolution is more fun for multiplayer because of the pace & accessibility, the graphic is prettier.
AI & depth on the pc version makes it better for singleplayer but it could cost you more than 22 hours for 1 game while CR on an average of 1-2 hours.

Also buying this game equal to buying half of a history text book with all the extras. tongue.gif Some are really interesting read.

Was winning a game just now, planning to show you guys my SSR in the space so i recored it then the next thing i know, the game froze on me while i was attacking my opponent. Arghhh...my artillery,battleship & GI all wasted!


The game has the tendency of freezing when you playing online. (10:1 ratio) Hope they release a patch soon...or not, because this is a known issue since Civ4. sad.gif

I am starting to hate you PJ tongue.gif

The game is awesome no doubt bout it, and just seeing what you are doing here adds to the excitement waiting for the game to be released here locally.

The froze thing is really bad, i bet those hard earned efforts and precious times went to a waste when it happens. Hopefully they deal with it before the Asia release.

At least PJ has something to break his fun with the game brows.gif
