Keep her around for a bit longer. After two or three years or intensive training she'll be acceptable.0 -

Greetings from the Civ V team! Another couple of months have passed, and the team has been busy continuing to refine and improve the game based on your feedback. Aside from the already-announced additions of Hot-Seat and Replays, an entire balance pass has been integrated into the game. New features, gameplay systems, and Diplomacy modifiers have all been added. AI refinements continue as well, and the AI is now better than ever at challenging the player. As we move into summer, we’ll continue to bring new and exciting additions to Civ V, including improvements to Multiplayer, and other core areas of the game. Your continued engagement and feedback is what drives the team to keep working, and to make Civ V everything that our fans expect, and for that, we thank you.
Some massive changes to balance of the game. And replay maps and graphs screens are added
To answer my previous posts question regarding implementation; hot-seat will have full animations. Delirah!
Full list of changes:
(there's a lot!)

They've nerfed a lot of the wonders, defense structures are going to be rubbish as well.
They've also buffed a lot of wonders! Most people have agreed that city's were too hard to capture at the start of the game. Wall's defence adds 4 instead of 5 strenth, hardly making them rubbish!
The happyness changes are the biggest issue I have, it will make the game much more challenging.
As for pbem, 2k greg has said theyre working on it and it's nearly ready. It's half implemented with the saves in this patch anyway. The next big patch after this will revamp the multiplayer entirely. Cant wait to play hot-seat

More happiness nerfing. Not sure I like, but then again I managed to win a game with 163 overall happiness not too long ago...
Research agreement nerfing was definitely needed. They were way too powerful giving the full tech.
Quicker to set up Railroads, much appreciated
Am actually glad to see a drop in city defense. They were actually quite tough to crack, even when under constant assault by three melee units and two siege units
Damn, I thought Harbours were finally generically useful, turns out they just become mini-Seaports as well, with Seaports now requiring them and nerfed too
"Barracks, Armory, Military Academy and Krepost now provide experience to all units trained." Thank christ. It was always annoying that only land units got the boost, especially since I generally play Small Continents or Archipelago where navy rules supreme.
The Social Policy finishers are an interesting touch, and adds some more depth to the tracks as well. Mertiocracy is back to it's former glory (:)), no longer gives a GP, which moves to the finisher. Honour's got quite a buff.
"Destroyers no longer start with extra sight.
Extra Sight promotions are now lost with upgrade (Caravel)." Dammit, dammit, dammit. There go my huge-LOS scouting Destroyers :mad:
Ironclad upgrade to Battleship now, eh? That opens them up to early use...

I'd imagine we'll limit the game to 6 or 8 people. Any more and things break down as far as game flow is concerned, less of an issue for us since we're all in 2 to 3 games of civ already 0 -

Well, not sure if the happiness changes properly nerfed it like they seemed they would.
I currently have around +60 happiness with 6 cities, a few happiness Wonders, nearly every luxury resource, Stadiums/Colosseums/Circuses/Stone Works everywhere, about to hit Modern Era in late 1850's...

How does that work out? Do ye have a time limit for submission of each turn?
Always wanted to try this method of play. Hotseat in CIV II wasn't quite the same.......0 -

It really blends a lot of variety of strategies into a completely workable and excellent game. I also suck at SC2 but CiV V gets my vote over it any day, not because I'm better at it, but I can be better in any strategic approach I desire
Cheers mate, i might just grab it on the steam sale.
I saw it on gamersgate for €10 the other day, should have got it then 0 -
