Another annoying thing that comes to mind is when a worker is automated at the beginning of the turn it asks for instructions, but then figures out that it's automated. The game doesn't hang, you can continue doing other stuff (which will also be temporarily ignored), then after a few seconds the unit suddenly decides to obey your instructions and move. For example, when you move a unit, the unit just stays where it was, as if it completely ignored what you just asked it to do. If you give out any command (moving units, setting a construction in a city, requesting a deal with another civ, *anything*), you have to wait a significant number of seconds before the games acknowledges it, and in the meantime it looks like it didn't get your command and needs you to repeat it. So that was the most stupid problem, now let's move on to the most annoying: After a good number of turns, when you get to the medieval times, it takes ages for anything you want to do to actually happen.

But it gets worse because if you decide to load the game later, you can only choose from the auto saves! You can circumvent that by manually moving your manual save in the auto save folder, but it's still very stupid. This is probably the single most stupid thing in the game. First, there is no button in the interface to manually save the game, you have to either rely on auto saves, or know and use the shortcut : Ctrl+S.
I only started playing it 5 months after its release and even with the patches released in those first five months, the multiplayer experience is still abysmal. What I find totally unacceptable is how rushed out the game seems to be. It's a shame to lose civilizations and gameplay features such as religion and espionage which were in Civ4 BtS, but the game can definitely be fun without them and I can understand that they need reasons to release expansion packs or DLCs for Civ V too. It makes sense, and it's probably something I'd be missing if I played earlier games. I like the gameplay changes in Civilization V like hex tiles and not being able to stack units.

If you are new to the franchise, have an obscenely overpower CPU (AI load is mostly on one core), and too much time, go for it. It does have the potential to be a 6 or 7, if all issues can be ironed out, but that is rarely the case with any game.
#1080 civilization v code
Design is a matter of taste, but code quality is a hard factor, and the coders for Civ V were exceptionally bad. It just leaves one wondering how Civ IV manages to deliver a much better AI in a much more complex environment much faster. Waiting between 20 seconds and two minutes for one AI turn, when you don't have anything to do during your turns anyway, is pretty much the last straw. It is a decent strategy game, but also suffers from quite a few bugs and performance issues, which spoil the little good it has going for it. But it fails to deliver any depth whatsoever.
#1080 civilization v series
Civ V does introduce very few interesting concepts, which could have improved the series overall. The latter isn't useless and does get the job done, but it's no Ferrari. Yes, there are similarities on a very shallow level, but comparing Civ IV with Civ V is like comparing a Ferrari with a compact car. :P That being said, Civilization V is most obviously not a sequel to what we have come to know as the Civilization series. Yes, First of all let me say that it is a bit unfair to rate a game 0, just because you had specific expectations it did not match.
