I now own Civ V - what now?
Today, I won a game. "Any one of those over there!" I went and looked, and to my dismay found that a 10 € CIV V copy was the least unattractive. Thus, I now own Civ V.
Should I even install it?

well, this seems to take care of itself - steam install has issues, steam activation sucks, CIV V installation doesn't work.

installing Divx 9 for the sixth time now. How I hate it when they sell beta releases.

You can try. It does not like to get installed. Also, you'd need Steam. I have not uninstalled it but have not played for a long long time.

Uh, cross-posting. You are doing it right now, or so it seems.

And it is not beta, it is the first version of alpha or pre-alpha. It gets better after patches though. Sometimes. Sometimes, after patches it gets worse.

Are you installing from Steam or from a disc? Steam should install the patched version.

Bought it from steam 2 weeks ago (along with G&K expansion). Downloading and installing from there went fine.
(And so far, I think, installing is worth the time. Don't know yet how much I like it, but it looks and feels nice. Although strategy seems to be different. Maybe worse than Civ IV)
