                  Woot! WTF at the hexes though?

                      I see no Wiki article on Civ V. I'm afraid this is a hoax

                        So when we hate the new hex system, we should ***** and moan in your direction?

                          Hexes are a huge improvement.

                            The Hex grid makes me question the future of moving units with my keyboard's number pad. Either they are trying to move people to using mouse movements or I'm going to have a weird time adjusting to the new system because two movement directions will be eliminated.
                            Don't rule me out when I'm losing. Save your celebration until after I'm gone.

                              Half the fun of a new game is complaining about the new vastly improved feature that is different than the previous game. Stop trying to ruin it.
