What do you want removed from Civ 5 ?

[Adagio]

I do, but they never showed the units land, nor was it shown the nuke


EDIT: Just reloaded the game to play the turn again... and surprise surprise, I never saw any nukes, but there's fallout around one of my cities

--------------------

And speaking of nukes and stuff I want to see removed: The SDI
The SDI is way too good, taking out 75% of all nukes. So for each time you want to nuke one city you have to attack with 4 nukes. And in the end it doesn't do that much damage anyway

Does anybody actually use nukes?

[LordShiva]

Why wait until nukes when you get Praetorians way earlier?

You have Quick Combat (Defense) activated [Options: Game tab].

It's okay to have QC (Offense) because you know what you are attacking; to have it on defense leads to situational ignorance (as opposed to situational awareness).

Nope... I don't have quick combat activated, neither defense nor offense

That's why we have catapults.

SODs

I´m not quite sure why people insist that cats are supposed to destroy stacks while quite obviously they are not doing this.

If I have understood correctly, cats only cause colteral damage to a maximum of 4 or 5 units and only to a maximum of 10% of a units health. This is just the very best possible case. Not the norm so cannot actually be calculated to be the normal case. Most probably the cat will cause some 5% damage to 2 or 3 units. And almost nothing at all to its main target becouse of its very low base strenght.


Should not a a few macemen be able to deal much more damage to a SOD than a few cats in that having a much greater base strenght?

[Adagio]

Using one cat on a stack will increase your chances of winning the next battles quite a lot

[DrSpike]

Yeah, stacks are easy to counter, but you need enough units to wipe up afterwards, or you are dead.

[joncnunn]

I also like to place Colaterial Damage promotions on Tanks to soften up entire enemy stacks

[Dis]

I always put collateral damage promos on tanks.

stacks aren't too bad... except when you don't have enough units to counter. . Which happens far too often for me. The ai can always outbuild me which I think is unfair. But then it's unfair that I can think strategically and the ai cannot. So it evens out in the end.

[LordShiva]

Yeah, collateral damaging, city raiding tanks = teh bomb. I use them to mop up whatever my praets happen to miss.

[Addled Platypus]

all righty then

the thread got moved ???

and the other that talks about what we want to see in civ 5

when is it coming over ?

[LordShiva]

Moving the thread to this forum was quite an effective death sentence.

[DrSpike]

It should have been called what in Civ4 do you not want to see in Civ5.

[Addled Platypus]

they seem to be after me

first it was down sizing my sig, moving this thread

I need a more devious plot to push the envelope a little further



BTW

I did not even attack the game in any fashion, just thought others like myself - wanted to voice a displeaseure in some aspects

whats a little criticism ?
