| I'm trying to get into it, but it seems like it's a radical departure from previous versions, especially with the religions. Anyone have any tips? |

I've yet to finish a game maybe I'll have to break down and not use the largest map but even on my fairly powerful system by the time I get to the modern age it's crawling and taking 5+ minutes to do stuff between turns I've gone back to Civ3 with the very very excellent Rise and Rule (RAR) mod |
Seems like one civilization is always a step ahead of me. 
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong
I played it for about a month and then got bored. They changed so much, plus dropped so many units; no more tactical nukes (and they hard-coded the ICBM dropping as part of the nuke animation so no one could mod them in), which was really annoying since nuking everyone into submission was my SOP for victory.

I never got into the Civ. series until this one. Unfortunately, I keep hearing the old veterans saying how this one sucks compared to past versions  Is this true?

If you buy it, make sure to build 10 times the number of units you think you will need. I got real tired of an archer destroying my entire army. |
