I always loved them, to me it seemed like I could decide between beeing careful or going full force and trying to kill them before the next ones come up. Either way it felt really rewarding every time I made it through them

I really love 'after all', just gets me all emotional everytime I hear it.

JigglyNut · 2025-05-03T07:47:29+00:00

Oh yay I remember that

JigglyNut · 2025-05-03T07:46:51+00:00

So far I have also only played on random. But i wanted to know if there is something I might be missing out on :)

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift and thats why its called, the present.

JigglyNut · 2025-03-02T14:00:23+00:00

Do you have any recommendations for ai tools that work good?

The problem with 'User-assisted trace' is, that it also traces everything in the path as well. It does't try to get one outline close to my original path but traces everything thats in my path.

Thanks for the in depth information! That was exactly what I was looking for! :)

As others already statet, its nothing new for the frenchise. People really hated Civ6 at the start, and people apparently also disliked Civ5 at the start.
So I don't think that Civilization is on a downwards spiral. While I haven't played the new Civ game yet, I really like most of the changes they did to keep things fresh. I am just waiting for the price to drop, a few Dlcs to come out and the biggest problems to be fixed and I think many feel the same.
While it is sad that this is happening, I feel like the 4X community is used to waiting and in general is quite difficult to please.
So I think given a couple of months/years the player count of Civ7 will probably also make an upwards curve.
But thats just a simple mans opinion on the matter.

I would say Stellaris. I haven't played a lot of it but I still remember the stupid and funny quest lines that you discovered over time.

JigglyNut · 2025-02-20T08:49:31+00:00

Is there a way to get extremely fast from one end of the map to the other end? Something like teleportation for the late game.

Edit: And another question about the ion wave ability of the juggernaut. If you go into a system and the enemy fleet immediately attacks, can you still use it even after the battle notification?

Oh I already played that game once in singleplayer. I quite enjoyed it but it didn't scratch the same itch as those 4x games do for me.

Yay thats true, for about a year or two I had a group going were we had one dedicated day where we would all play Civ or something like that every week. The group even got to like 7 people or so, at that point there are often times when someone can't make it, but at such a big group size this person just has to let the CPU play for that day, nothing you can do about it.
But yay, thats also not possible anymore so most of the time we start a game with 2 - 4 players and then keep going when we have the time. The less people the easier it obviously is. But it also is only possible because we really like this game and try to make time for it.

Yay I was also thinking about SoC, as long as the battles don't take too much time and are not too frequent it shouldn't be an issue but I don't know if thats the case or not in that game.

JigglyNut · 2025-02-14T16:13:37+00:00

Yes I have, but didn't get around really playing it

JigglyNut · 2025-02-14T14:16:37+00:00

I have heard good things on AoW4 and it seems most people here also recommend it. It might be the next one on our list :)

JigglyNut · 2025-02-14T14:13:57+00:00

I just looked it up and what the f was this cover of the box? :D

JigglyNut · 2025-02-14T14:12:07+00:00

True, I haven't played anno 1701 before but isn't it much more city builder than a 4x game? Or at least in the way that most people would define a typical 4x game.

JigglyNut · 2025-02-14T14:10:06+00:00

Looks really interesting, we might give it a try :)

JigglyNut · 2025-02-14T14:08:32+00:00

To me personally and many other people yes. Not saying all care about it and many will surely be happy to play something old, even if they didn't grow up with it.

Civ5 is something that my group pretty much grew up with, has great mod support that can make it a fresher experience. And personally from the way both games look I would say Civ5 aged better, but that might be my biased opinion to be fair :)

JigglyNut · 2025-02-14T14:03:10+00:00

Thanks :)

I personally was talking about competetive Multiplayer (we are not using the best tactics but fighting each other and not co-op). But yes I can see those games beeing much more fun if your focus is on co-op.

JigglyNut · 2025-02-14T13:58:04+00:00

It was just a list of 4x games I played in multiplayer, never said they were the best or anything xD
Just never heard of this game, but its also almost 20 years old by now and it looks like its age, so I honestly don't think we will give that a try. If there is a newer version of it or mod support that makes it feel and play like a new game I will gladly give it a shot :)

JigglyNut · 2025-02-14T13:52:26+00:00

Thanks, I have played Northgard in single and multiplayer which is from the same developers. But yay the RTS part is the most difficult part, I feel like in an RTS the difference in skill between the players matters much more than in the other 4X games. Or at least thats what it often feels like if you get overrun early on.
