Let's Play Civ IV Multiplayer - Mao 1

[MrJethroha]

I once cherry tapped a 4 samurai with only 2 an archer and a warrior but they were super experienced

[cough] ( by world builder )

WHO SAID THAT!!! )={

[laird47]

TheMeInTeam, you are like a master in analyzing the field! Totally epic, but one warrior guarding your city? I mean, cmon lol

[TheMelnTeam]

@laird47

It's coop; with the humans unwilling to attack me, and the AI too stupid, there's no point to adding more troops in behind-lines cities

[xXNeoKennyXx]

how much players can play on a map?

[TheMelnTeam]

@xXNeoKennyXx

Up to 18, though expect a game like that to take an eternity.

[5uchtie]

Funny... although your name is 'Cherry Tapping', you don't perform any cherry tapping. I'd frikkin love to see some in Civ IV.

For those who don't know what cherry tapping is: It means destroying the enemy with a really bad character or weapon.

What would you say if your Kyogre gets one-hitted by a Magikarp? And what if your robot army with nuclear weapons gets overrun by a horde of stone-age warriors?

This is totally humiliating. Still you'll have lots of fun doing this yourself >:3

[TheMelnTeam]

@5uchtie

China is a pretty bad pick, although technically not the worst. The real problem here is that nobody ever agrees to play immortal+ so it's going to be easy no matter what I do.

[BasicGameMaking]

Good vid....

SLOW DOWN!!

Na great comments, but I was just wondering..

What screen recorder do you use? I'm yet to find one that can produce a good quality video of 10mins under 5GB!

[Pastshelfdate]

I can only see what’s going on in full-screen, when the control bar doesn’t stay in view, and pausing is not quick enough at your speed. I still enjoy your comments, it’s only more how I enjoy “Penny Arcade”: I know nothing of nearly all the games, but the basic comedy doesn’t depend on that, and I still get a laugh.

Please, simply talk & shift map slower; I’m dizzy and overloaded.

[baconman274]

is this civ 4 warlords or just an update cause i never saw that character in the diplomacy screen.

p.s. my updater doesnt work =/

[MacGyverinSpace]

Why is DanBuilderQ the Zulu?



[TheMelnTeam]

@MacGyverinSpace

He went random, and at some point died and had to switch, by now I forget the details.

[torkoal531]

you should talk some about what you think of Civilization 5 so far, judging on the amount that's been released. (hexs, no stacking, etc.)

[TheMelnTeam]

@torkoal531

I will not comment on civ V until it is out.  That's about all I'm going to say in terms of that ;).

[torkoal531]

@TheMelnTeam fair enough :)

[darkmaster539]

i have been trying to find more people to play online as the people i have been playing are still at a very low level should i just go into the room and take a look around or is there a place where i can post looking for people of my level?

[GentlemanGreen17]

So, your friend who got spawned with Toku would normally be a cakewalk surely? Isn't Toku one of the worst leaders in game?

Obviously, he is hard here due to the Emperor setting right?

[TheMelnTeam]

@GentlemanGreen17

Toku is a bad AI and also not so great in human hands, but he DOES spam units and is aggressive early in the game. He sucks long term, but he's just the kind of thing you don't want near you, because he'll declare and try to put your tech rate at approximately the same snail's pace his typically is :(.

[cataphracts123]

Rofl Mao :D

[HenningIII]

I'd like you to talk about cottage/specialist economy, how you can maximize profit from them and when to use them

[Mahisse]

Could you talk about how you set up your specialized cities? Would be appriciated :-D

[TheColombiandude]

i hate the apolistic palace cuz i wasent the religion it was but everybody was eighter a full member or voting member then everybody stopped trading with me whcih KILLED MY ECONOMY i got freaking pised

[nkatomg2]

I would like to hear about windows of attack, which you touched on in this video. I would like to know what units you choose and why. I would also like to hear about the time-frame aspect of windows of attack and the general strategies that make these windows a viable option. Ty

[fizbankovi]

hi! Gl hf!

[TnalX22]

Any suggestions when you start out in the upper left corner of a cont with 2 expansionist to the south and east of you & a good desert south of you?

Because the only though that came to my mind when this happened to me earlier today was rage-reset ( I hate RNG sometimes :( )

[mtgforlife]

Can you discuss strategies for getting back into the tech race post and while warring; when you have no techs to trade. Also if you could discuss ways to launch extremely early ships for Hall of Fame games.

[flyingtoaster]

Love the vids. It's really opened up my play style (and enjoyment) of Civ 4. Thanks!

Things I would like you to expand on:

- Tile improvements and the viability of later-game improvements such as windmills when doing the food math in your fat cross.

- City sites : how far is too far? When is 1-off the coast worth it? How to pay for huge expansions.

- Tech tree : Your strategy between Writing and Liberalism and how would a civ or leader or map or enemies affect your decisions.

[HeavensFrogman]

Well, if you're bored, I'd like to hear about strategies for beginners to try.

[TheMelnTeam]

@HeavensFrogman

I'll try to work that in, given the contrast between beginner approaches and hellish maps like global highlands :p.

[Alexandru1914]

@HeavensFrogman

yea that would be nice

[TheAsharedhett]

Hey TMIT! Good luck!

[Sweetwater251]

meln do u think we could play a game some time im gettin civ 4 today

[zaldar78]

to megamarsvin - playing on monarch with agrresive AI..yes there is still a challenge don't worry.

[viper19861986]

Sweet, will be fun to watch when i get back from work!

[megamarsvin]

Cool to see a multiplayer let's play but if you're basically doing co-op ganging up on the AI, there's not much of a challenge left is there? Or am I missing something?

[TheMelnTeam]

@megamarsvin

It depends which of us you ask :p. For me, it's usually more social, although high level no-tech trades can actually be challenging...bad starts near strong AI are hard regardless of what else is going on in the game world.

[xTheRevisionistx]

I'd like to hear about strategy mostly, you know, the reasoning behind certain decisions. Bottom line is, I wanna hear how to win :p

[mrroco300]

yay

[DWTittman]

TILE IMPROVEMENTS!!!

[BloodMech21]

i liked the way it was going just fine.

[BloodMech21]

:O !!!!

[Lance11888]

Woo, more LPs! I'm excited. Also, we're going to have to play some CoD again sometime! It's been a while

[galoluka]

wow! I think I'll enjoy this lets play... fast paced and very challanging (and not to mention a new twist to the civ lets plays)

[galoluka]

@galoluka don't get me wrong, I enjoy every lets play. I'm just pointing out that I think I'll like this lets play a bit more than the other civ lets plays

[xTheRevisionistx]

Nice! Multiplayer action and discovering a civ podcast all at once. Thanks, I'm seriously gonna check that out.
