Everything known about pitboss in civ5 is mentioned in this thread.

And with your post, we know a little bit more.

I'd still settle for a proper PBEM. That robot thing does not seem to function and anyhow, it is a poor work around.

GMR does work, Firaxis keeps screwing it up.

So this might include pitboss...

It might or it does? You know, it is already done, they are just packaging now. I've also seen something at CFC that hints but nothing real.

The BNW info compilation thread states it as a fact. I don't believe it until I see it, and if (not when) I see it, I'll be asking why it's included in an add-on instead of a patch of vanilla civ5... or why it wasn't included at release of vanilla civ5.

Another fun fact: BNW includes the content from G&K, besides scenario's and civs. This is PTW all over again...

FUCK YOU FIRAXIS

Probably vanilla is not compatible. Something broken in the code. Something like Civ3 vanilla had no multiplayer at all. And it cannot be patched. Let's wait and see what happens. I've been also thinking that maybe, there is a PB but it is broken and does not work. So, there are going to be patches to that. If it can be patched.

I'm almost done with Mass Effect 3 MP, just need to add a bit ultrarares to the manifest. Not a bit, actually quite a lot although the chore seems endless. It is time to try something less stressful. Running around killing bad guys is fun but it can be done in a more relaxing environment without running.

Oooo goodey, i'll not buy PTW and just buy Conquests like last time!

Hi guys!

I've played a bunch of Civ5/G&K this winter before classes started and when I was sick, and enjoyed it a whole lot. I knew I wouldn't have had time to get into it much or play MP. So, I refrained from kidding myself that I could tag along with you guys.

Glad to see the mood towards expansion packs hasn't changed ;) G&K fixed most issues (both technical and personal) I had with Civ5 so I'm glad I got it. Guess I'll wait for ridiculous sales for the next one down as well.

@akots: ME3 was amazing and MP was fun but soooooooooo repetitive ... how do you stick around long enough to get ultra rares?? (sorry for the spam and threadjack, I know such things are frowned upon here)
