[Piyush]

[SunnyChahal]

Is Civilization V turn-based like Civilization IV was or is it like AoE?

 

[Piyush]

^^most probably its still turn based game like its predecessors

 

[SunnyChahal]

Facepalm

 

[vamsi_krishna]

^ you facepalm too much

Just constructed The Manhattan Project. And.. 2 turns away for the production of atomic bomb.I once said to Queen Elizabeth.. "You'll pay for this someday". This day is the day.

 

[Piyush]

^^one bomb from my side too
i just hated her comments

 

[vamsi_krishna]

holy hell.. dropped the bomb on London. But he radiation was a bit beyond my expectation. London was my neighboring city.. and i nucked it. The radiation passed 3 tiles beyond the English border. 5 tiles in my territory got destroyed and radiated. And, there was this quote about the nukes...

"None will grow in these lands except hatred and vengeance" That is such a true.

 

[Piyush]

^^totally agreed
but nuking is fun

 

[gagan007]

[Piyush]

[vamsi_krishna]

Rise of Nation, is a piece of classic. The best RPG game ever made. Hands down.

 

[SunnyChahal]

So, is this game fun? Should I get it?

 

[vamsi_krishna]

you should get it. No steep learning curve involved. I just picked the game up.. I never played any civilization game before. And I spent Hours and Hours in this word.. without even realizing.

Just get the game. Spend some 30mins exploring the game concepts. It has robust HELP system too.
