Questions & Answers

Windows 8 compatibility was not confirmed. ?

The answer is yes! Try playing around with the settings so that they match your system specs, but I did not face any problems since I was running 8 on my system.

Are you able to run this game on Windows ?

I believe so. There are several versions of Windows compatible with it.

Would you mind telling me if this is Steam code or a disk?

You get a Steam code for it

Are you able to run it under Linux? In what way?

Having never used the Linux version, I can't speak for it personally. In a simple post on Civ V's Steam forum, I announced that users of Ubuntu could now participate in 4X strategy games. Currently, the post on Aspyr's own site contains more information about the issue as of 11 June 2014. Those expansions and DLC will be included in the port, and multiplayer will be cross-platform In addition, it will support the Valve Steam controller, which is scheduled to become available in the near future. I dislike the fact that we need to go through a third party and we can't play the game straight out of the box without buying any additional content Intervention in the line of action.

A word of caution to the buyer It may not be possible to install Steam
3/5

I have played many of the earlier Civ games, but this one won't install because I can't get Steam to work. While I have been connected to the internet to buy this, Steam installation repeatedly fails, with an error message saying there is no connection to the internet. It must be obvious that I am online, or else I would not be writing this review. In the Steam website, you will find a laundry list of reasons why Steam may not install and, for each reason, more laundry lists of what to do (including turning your firewall off) to resolve the problem. You get the idea of how often it gets installed wrong by how many people experience this issue. Among the things I tried were turning off the firewall temporarily (eugh! Nothing worked), but nothing did. After starting to update, it fails with an error message saying there is This is a pity. I have always enjoyed Civ games, but Steam has been a waste of time for me.

The madness is almost unbearable

The game I am playing on my PC is so exciting to me
5/5

The game I am playing on my PC is so exciting to me. When you are strategizing on world dominance, you are not wasting any time. Having three dimensions gives history characters a sense of depth. During the course, you will learn about the many challenges faced by world leaders These include financial and foreign relations, military forces, social issues, cultural issues, and technological issues. In addition to energy and food, you must manage your financial situation as well. It is all happening in an era that is changing. The world of history begins with you in the very early days, and you will make advances that will help you grow your influence and landholdings throughout history. As a parent, I am proud of my child for spending time playing this "game. " His smile says it all. Some things have been taught that can't be taught in school.

This is a rehash of an earlier Civilization game
3/5

Civilization IV fans will be disappointed with this game, since it is basically a retread of the previous title. Taking into account, it still requires Steam to load, as well as Steam Client running in the background to play (even in Single Player mode).

The best strategy game of all time
5/5

Great strategy game that's both classic and new at the same time. This keeps the player on the edge of their seat, and I am looking forward to Brave New World. Play this game and see what you think.

It's awesome how well this game works! It's awesome how well this game works! Buy it
5/5

You won't regret it. Having bought this game over a year ago, I have played over 200 hours solo and with In this game, multiplayer takes the game to a whole other level, since it takes a lot of effort To outmaneuver other people, you have to use a level strategy. In contrast, when playing against computers, the game is much easier unless you decide to set the difficulty as high as it can go.

Those graphics are amazing and these subtle changes in tactics and movement take your breath away
4/5

As I have Civilization IV and Civilization V, I can't play them at the same time. This is quite a bit more challenging, even though it is similar. Taking time to adjust to the subtle changes in tactics and movement is one of the biggest challenges of the game's graphics Once you get used to the controls, Civilization V can be a lot of fun. fact, it's much easier than you might think. The hard part is stopping once you get started. There are similarities between the two games but they are also different in some ways I have played both, and they are both It is impossible to go wrong with either.
