Sid Meiers Civilization IV Beyond the Sword Reviews
I have been playing civilization since it started and civilization IV is great but i have a hard time with the fact that knights are beating my marines,or archers beating my infantry or calvary's very unrealistic.the new world wonders are great,I wish they would have Cultural wonders Big Ben for the english,etc and corporate wonders such as empire state building,transamerica etc.otherwise its close.I also hope to see The leaders change I mean queen Victoria lasting until the end of the game i wish i could live that long.they should have leaders die and have new kings,queens, emperor become elected.They also should add the Austrians,and Canadians some important civilizations have not been added to the game yet.Otherwise Civilization IV has improved,and is fun to play
If you initially install Civ 4 and then update it through the advanced settings within the game then the expansion pack "Beyond The Sword" with install just fine with Vista. I hope this helps with those who have install issues with Vista and the expansion pack.
Contacted the company and they wanted me to send it back within a designated time. I live to far from town to justify the trip just for a game. The game didn't work. I couldn't do that. Tbe second disk was bad.
"Diplomacy" can be a tricky way to win the game, but with BtS you can create Vassal states out of almost-vanquished opponents.leave a remnant of your enemy standing, and they become a puppet state that will vote your will. Did you ever load up Civ IV, then cringe when you up against a violence-prone leader like Salidin or Boudica. Groan, not more fighting to get in the way of my culture-based Civilization. In terms of $$$ per hour of play, this has got to be the best deal in an expansion pack since Ultima VII. "Space Race" is much, much more complex. And I didn't even bother with the scenarios (the "Holy Roman Empire" one is a fav of mine). You also get the "Great General" great person from Warlords, and lots of layered ways to win the game.
Lots, and LOTS of special buildings and units. "Corporations" are founded and spread in the same fashion as religions, if you don't care to form a Civilization based on Fundamentalist Taoism. Really fun, and strongly recommended. This expansion pack adds lots of new AI personalities (example: Pericles the Greek, Sitting Bull the Native American (about time, too) and William of Orange of the Netherlands. "Beyond The Sword" can help make Civ IV fun again.
I'm tired of exchanging bad disks for more bad disks, this game is going in the trash. I've tried three different cds and all of them were useless. The company sent out faulty disks that don't load.
