Civilization IV Victory: Space Race

[kashmira6]

are we there yet?

are we there yet?

are we there yet?

are we there yet?

Ship's AI: STFU!!

[Kemonokami]

"'Mind Worms?' Never heard of 'em. Why do you ask?"

[kisameman22]

colonist: r we here?

spaceship GPS: recalculating....Drive 100000000000000000000000000000­000000000000000000000000000000­0000000000000e100 miles to destination on right

[joss7758]

LOST BY ONE TURN DAMIT

[stevo2099]

CHIEF! WAKE UP!! CHIEF!! ..oh wait sorry wrong game

[Edwardzzzz9]

Spesh is gewd

[PraecoNoctis]

watching this cos the game cheated and decided not to let me finish my spaceship for no reason :-/

[spideybatghost]

Have to admit, this is always the first victory I shoot for when starting a civ game. There is something satisfying about a technological victory.

[davidwie]

this movie reminds me ALOT of mass effect...

anyone else got that to?

[Geordie89d]

Mmmh? Gravity?

[thegeneralpie]

And then.

Mind Worms.

Mind Worms everywhere.

[Shabasky1]

Win Space Race Victory

???

Begin Sins of a Solar Empire

[SamHagagaga]

@Shabasky1 No, actually, a game begins, but not that one. The game is Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

[FlyingWardogFilms]

The ending to this game's space race really kind of bothered me. I mean... I LOVED the space race ending in Civ 2 Test of Time... was expecting something more epic at the end of Civ 4... oh well, what can you do.

[highflyingdwarf]

Boy gonna get raped by some mind worms

[FoolyCoolyMabase]

Wow, not even time to recover, the ship is like "did you have a nice sleep? ok, now go back to the floor, little fucker"

[unfetteredfreak]

and then they got attacked by mind worms

and caught inbetween an alien cross fire

[xblueblaze]

Why isn't he floating?

[SovietLenin1]

@xblueblaze you know in spaceships you have the option to float or not float. Depending on if you are carefull with the buttons or maybe it all explodes and you become yet another forgotten people...

[logicpwnsemotion]

going to alpha centauri i see. they will extremmly lucky if its just the navi's there dealing with ._.

[Skinnyoompalumpa]

@logicpwnsemotion

Nah, just mindworms :(

[TheKingofnoob]

Many years have gone by, and the first statis pod opens up. As the occupant steps out and briefly observes the unknown alien worlds, only one thought races through his mind:

"There's profit to be made."

For he is Nwabudike Morgan.

[CaptainPengu]

@TheKingofnoob GET OFF MY LAWN YOU PEACEKEEPING SONOFA---

[SamHagagaga]

@TheKingofnoob

I must dissent.

The colonist thinks "there is much to be discovered" for he is Prokhor Zakharov.

The colonist thinks "there are people to be conquered" for she is Corazon Santiago

The colonist thinks "yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum" for he is that guy from the expansion.

[Larkin200]

Is it to much to ask for for a remake of Alpha Centaurai of the Civ 4 engine?

I mean you have CEO Morgan arriving in a sapce ship in that video.

[cyndassprites]

Yuri Gagarin never saw this.

[marshall9doom]

@cyndassprites

No he didn't, but Yuri Gagarin IV did.

[Donvalerio]

This is so disappointing compaired to Civ III's space race victory... :/

[chaklong]

@Donvalerio

Civ 3 had great fucking cutscences I'm sad they got lazy on that but its k

[Stillguitars]

I MAKE A VIDEO EVERYDAY! PLEASE SUBSCRIBE!

[TheRubixGuy]

lol there is no gravity in space

[hal0dude7]

@TheRubixGuy Ever heard of space ships?

[TheRubixGuy]

@hal0dude7 no experimentation with artificial gravity and humans has yet been conducted in space!!

[GFedFan]

@TheRubixGuy The space race victory takes place in the future. They have a god damned stasis chamber! I'm sure they can create artificial gravity by now.

[MrRileyI777]

@GFedFan I don't know about artificial gravity. Pehaps they could walk on the walls while the space ship rotates on its axis.

[GFedFan]

@MrRileyI777 It's entirely possible. That's what they do in the Halo books.

[iliev93]

dammit it 's so hard to get it before the turns expire >< all these SS casings and the life support takes FOREVER to build

[ReynoldAckerson]

@southparkkid07 Artificial Gravity. Derp.

[JimmyCos]

Please don't go, the drones need you, they look up to you

[CobaltX07]

Colonist: So what happens when I wake up?

Tech guy: you'll be able to gently climb out of your pod and make sure you haven't lost bone density before you walk.

[4+ years later]

*Thud*

Colonist: I'm gonna kill that bastard.

[bhssinger3]

Is that guy a Spartan? If you read the Alpha Centauri books, you find out that the Spartans were stowaways and the woke up earlier than the rest.

By the way, they weren't eaten by mindworms, they were destroyed by the Manifold. :)

[Ascensiam]

Did anyone notice this:

In Civ III, we see the rocket with the colonists get launched into space.

In Civ IV, we see the rocket arrive and the colonists awake.

In Civ II, we see the colonists have built a city under a glasslike dome.

In Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, we get to play as those colonists!

[ChaozXIII]

@Ascensiam in civ v we get none of this

[HappyCaddy]

Best victory video in my opinion

[Idiotsbrother]

The dude was looking at the planets like

"I didnt sign up for this crap!"

[shallowlake]

The first game I ever played of civ 4, in the tutorial. I got the space race victory..

[iba001]

why is this ending so much better than the civ 5 endings? thumbs up if u think civ 5 endings are lame : (

[welshspud]

@gamexmasterxfire Matter doesn't have a mass of 0 in space, it has a weight of near 0. Weight is the mass of an object (which never changes, anywhere) multiplied by the gravitational field strength it is sitting in.

Matter can't travel at light speed because to accelerate to that speed requires infinite amounts of energy.

[FantasticArts95]

I really miss the cool endings in Civ 5:((

[mphet26]

!!!!! Another WORLDS!!!

Its a main mankind's dream!

[Dashie87]

This ending isn't bad, but I actually like the Civ III space ending alot better than this one.

♥

[nomad1545]

Can we populate other planets in civ4, or you only play in a space scenario on final frontier mod?

[k28xl]

@nomad1545 Only on Final Frontier, in case you haven't bough the game yet.

[sharkbaek]

Welcome to the planet of fungus and mind worm. :)

[GmodPlusWoW]

@sharkbaek I wonder if they'll ever remake Alpha Centauri?

[dmileynon97]

@GmodPlusWoW They would if EA would give up the rights to the game.

[bumbleboy4]

>:-( I launched a ship with all parts and it said estimated arrival time:10 turns (20 turns later) WHY HAVNT I WON!?!?

[MrTdawg66]

space, the final frontier

[LEGOALEX97]

Remember-You dont win when you launch, you win when the ship reaches Alpha Centurari

[GarlicPudding]

Guy: Wow, look at the view.

*Airlock opens*

Guy: Uh, computer? I'm gonna close the airlock...

Computer: I'M SORRY, DAVE, BUT I CAN'T LET YOU DO THAT.

Guy: Ah, fu--

*Everyone is sucked out into space and dies*

[Tonyhorton55]

After watching the space race cut scene for Civ 2, Civ 3, and Civ 4 I'm glad I didn't support Civ 5. Lazy fuckers.

[oblivionfan345Tony]

=O Civ 4 should have had Aliens later on once you got to space stage

[noelsoong777]

looked like the start of mass effect 1.

[gadduste]

to bad civ 5 aint got cutscenes..

[Swinship]

Welcome to Pandora! Home to the indigenous NA'VI

[MrRammsteinKicksAss]

I would go there...

[Hotdogbunker]

OH SHIT, NOT THE ZERG RUSH!!!

[HappyCaddy]

This is the best victory video.

[YoshiTheBlue]

And then they got eaten by mind worms.

[Azamspazam91]

you should be able to start a space program where you can land a person on the moon and search for extra terrestrial life, even colonize another planet! that would complete this, cant wait for civ 5!

[BigwigFatcat]

@Azamspazam91 homage to Alpha Centauri (kick ass game that got me into Civ)

[Left4Epic]

ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL

[epicfail290]

I WANT TO LEARN HOW TO USE PYTHON FOR CIV 4 PROGRAMMING.I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FOR MONTHS.LEARN AT LEAST.I DONT KNOW ANY PROGRAMMIN LANGUAGE BUT I AM WILLING TO LEARN.CAN SOMEONE HELP ME?

[DoomedSonoftheWalrus]

@epicfail290 Well first of all, how about letting go of the Caps Lock? That would be a great start :/

[Illisius]

"Stupid Mapquest."

[Kemonokami]

This just wouldn't be possible had Shakespearicles not invented America, the stage play and the two-story house.

[SouthernFerrets]

wouldent it suck if when they landed aliens and predators killed em all got on there ship flew back to earth and distroyed there civilazation

[NukeSocks]

"This is Xerxes"

[warc9]

@NukeSocks Nice system shock 2 shock 2 reference.

[dragontooth613]

earlier today i won the space race and it said ok, i clicked on it twice since my computer sometimes sucks with it, i accidently skipped it, thnx for showing this

[bangNL94]

They're taking it pretty far IMO. The first time they go into space, they immediately put people in stasis chambers and randomly propel them towards somewhere in space

[JSSJR90]

This space victory ending kinda sucks, Civ 3 was a LOT better.

[zechreich]

how to trigger this kind victory after i got all SS Parts needed...

[Deathsong17]

@zechreich Did you remember to click the launch button?

[zechreich]

@Deathsong17 i dont see that fucking launch button anywhere...

[gozaimas1]

what happend like when they wake they see the alien like alien vs pradator

[NotTheAntichrist]

Nwabudike Morgan?

[yamiblade]

SAY HI TO THE GNOSIS FOR ME!

[Darrosified]

They coulda made the ship look a lil bit more like the Unity

[janissary211]

Or Necromorphs for that matter?

[niceguy7183]

hes like uhhh i dont think we are on tattoine cehie

[skatepunkzero]

Houston We have a problem

Uhh Houston....

Uhh... Houston...

[Apoc2K]

@skatepunkzero You'd probably a get a reply if you don't mind having to wait nine years for it.

[PoddaJawada]

I allways ends up with either space race victory or cultural victory.

[xridethelightningx]

@PoddaJawada

haha. i'm the opposite. i never ever get space or culture, only conquest and domination

[Jakezing]

@xridethelightningx space is a pretty drawn out way of winning, the others are easier. i prefer non military, simply cause its earsier toi not do war

[eddielopez2012]

wat happens later?

[NartSaga]

Play Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

The Game is perhaps the finest game ever made.

It asks some big questions about humanities future.

The book is very good. (Centauri Dawn)

There is also a Web Story.

[YRUPLAYINGTHIS]

@NartSaga i still have that game. Awsome game.

[yamiblade]

Say hi to the Eldar, the Chaos Gods, the Orks, the Tau, the Tyranids and the Necrons for me!

[Jc40k1]

@yamiblade lol, 40k reference, what if they found xenomorphs on that planet?

[TomBombadil37]

I always liked this ending the most.

[BLARGHALT]

Tell the colonists to say 'hi' to the Na'vi for me.

[davidthegreatgeneral]

@BLARGHALT KILL the Na'vI

[AspiringPotato]

@BLARGHALT

You gotta kill the Na'vi...

[caseyboy97]

@BLARGHALT lol they wil rape your mind though

[gamelover5]

@BLARGHALT nice

[Ignuus66]

@BLARGHALT mindworms ate the Na'vi

[HUNAdamus94]

He looks outside! Captain :Oh my god! A beutifull new wo....

Ship Navigator: Hey Captain looks like all of us. all the 8 astronaut in good condition.

Captain: Wait we was seven when we lift of oh wait a minute! Ahh shit!

[RabidWaffles]

AND THEN THEY WERE EATEN BY MIND WORMS

also why can't we all just get along?

seriously you people are fucking hostile you'll die of high blood pressure.

[samuriazombie]

lol he wakes up, chest burster from alien pops out!

[fjoseyahoo]

guys can u help me with this. i built all the components for the spaceship like the ss casing, ss engine and the rest. also the Apollo space station. now what. what do i do next??

[Cr34tor94]

@fjoseyahoo

Check and see whether there are still any ss peices to unlock by technologies, and you cannot win a single game twice

[fjoseyahoo]

@Cr34tor94 hey thanks. that msut have been the problem man. i always seem to win a time victory and i thought i could still wina space victory. can u eliminate time victory?

[Cr34tor94]

Yea, go to custom game and de select time victory from the victory options.

Does not aply to games already in progress.

[4TheWinds]

I think there is propley one more thing you need to build, eitehr that or another option you havent founded out yet

[rebelanarch]

wished they made a new version of alpha centauri, or at least modify it to work with XP and above.. and linux.

[alliancesucksbawls]

sorry its 186,282.397 So its 23498406687168 miles from Earth

[HabCpStudios]

Cool answer lol.

[alliancesucksbawls]

Alpha Centauri is 4 Lightyears away from Earth... and lightspeed is 186,282,397 miles per second; so it is 23498406687168000 miles away from the Earth. but anything with mass cannot travel at the speed of light; only energy such as light can travel at that speed.

[SyntaxError100]

@alliancesucksbawls dude ur acting like ur an alien .. shut the fuck up

nobody ever got that speed so whatthefack do u know about what we can and not can ?

its like people who think they can go back to the future & that stuf .. think about it if we could go to the futher & that stuf .. where are the tourists ? Its total shit 100 years ago who thought a box from wood could be entertainment .. with a big chiny screen with little people on it ..

[alliancesucksbawls]

Listen SyntaxError100 you fucking prick, who the hell brought up time travel? ThoraninC simply asked how far away Earth was from Alpha Centauri and I was telling him; im not talking about wooden boxes and "chiny screens"<? and how am I acting like an alien?? people have got that speed you dumbass, just not traveled that speed.. You are very ignorant.

[su0rtin]

@SyntaxError100 Your so dumb Darwin is rolling over in his coffin.

[SyntaxError100]

@su0rtin Dude .. if space traveling Exist please build me one & get me a ferarri from te fut... Loll just steal it .. if u travel back with the ferarri nobody wil arrest u ..Oh & bring me some spacecash 2;)

Dude one word .. U LOOK TO MUCH TV :)

[su0rtin]

"U LOOK TO MUCH TV" - Thats 3 words an abbreviation and 1 letter. I love how you assume I watch to much television because I called you dumb. Nice logic. Learn English before you try to argue with someone you blithering idiot. You seem hellbent on disproving time travel. Its like a theist arguing with an atheist. Both are idiots for being so dogmatic.

[SyntaxError100]

Dude I am from belgium .. i did not learn to speak or write english :D so im pretty happy that u can understand me .. otherwise u would not send me back some more crap lolll... Nice talking to u fred flinstone .. maybe u can invent something to Bomb ur house withh .. u would help the world !

[gamexmasterxfire]

@SyntaxError100 Wow...just, wow.

You think he pulled those cnclusions from his fucking pocket?

Matter can achieve lightspeed as long as its mass is 0, which is what happens in an absolute vacuum, I.E., deep space

It's all based on theorization based on observable infrmation, such as the works of einstein and hawkings. Learn your fact you dumb fuck. and learn some fucking english, your grammar is giving me a fucking headache.

and How the fuck do you go "back to the future & that stuff..."?

[fabia23]

Acturally. this is only proved if the mass is affected by any gravity ;)

If u achieve 0.0000 in gravity u can travel in the speed of light with a mass.

[ThoraninC]

How far form earth to Alpha Centauri?

[gamexmasterxfire]

@ThoraninC 4 lightyears or so

[TheFireball100]

I was disappointed in this. When I beat the game in the space race, I expected something like Civ 3. I liked Civ 3's ending better. this one is really short - but the graphics are awesome.

[wiv098]

How do you launch a spacecship into Alpha Centauri? Sorry if its a stupid question.

[donmont10]

After you have all the required parts for the space ship you press the launch button on the space race screen, of course you have to add the parts to the ship then launch.

[cashews678]

I think the guy kinda looks like Nwabudike Morgan.

[Vandycruz]

he looks more like Tom Driscoll from "Albion"...

[ganon167]

1 time i ran out of time 2 win 1 turn b4 my ship would have made it

[OrinjFlames24]

cut scenes for civ games: civ 4:good civ3: better civ 2: best

[kwawreslers]

It would be cool if you win by space you can unlock alien civs

[laflugantabastardo]

"I can't let you do that, Dave."

[jjws]

so the sleeping pod just dumps you on the floor like that? what if you landed on your head! thats just bad design

[mkreisel]

The guy looks more like Chairman Yang.

[clipers12]

Wow Obama has arrived!

[ranma763]

he doesn't even slightly look like him

[RossMarlow]

OH GOD!

IT'S BARACK OBAMA!

[GmodPlusWoW]

Resemblance is uncanny.

[runedude65]

when i win space victory it shows a pichure of the ship then afer about 10 second it shows the part of the video with the guy lookig out the window

[machine3589]

I wonder if a human would even be able to stand after several decades of being in cryo-stasis. Much less jump.

[GmodPlusWoW]

It's probably not actual cryo-stasis. It might be a form of chrono-stasis for all we know.

[Szgerle]

Its called a plot statis.

Sufficent amounts of stored dramatic energy can completely conserve a given character provided with enough technobabble. They are usually phlebotinum powered.

[stardingo747]

A former NASA engineer who likes Star Trek once told me, its better to just turn off your brain. You think its a problem for us, try actually having worked with that.

[Shabran123456789]

the last scene looks like the beginning of mass effect :p

[SeamusPaxman]

lol.

[rrroba]

i have a question.. i won a time victory (yes the newby way to go) and about 50 turns later i had all the things required for a space victory.. y didnt it show the cutscene?

[Soda7777777]

because you already won.

[Ironman1o1]

Because the game had "ended"

[jamesgravil]

Captain: "Any sign of life, helmsman?"

Helmsman: "Uh, yes sir, I'm detecting some kind of primitive mind worm thingies..."

Captain: "Oh, I'm sure they're no biggie. Begin landing sequence."

[ih8makinusernames]

alpha centari lol. god the mind worms are annoying.

[RaynorX]

unless you play the Gaians :P

Then they're like free soldiers

[ih8makinusernames]

true, but i'm always the university. then their just annoying.

[k28xl]

@jamesgravil ROFL 5 years later:

"Shit, Why did we ever land on this ever godforsaken planet."

[sithalo]

@jamesgravil lol good one

[tau000]

And it all begins again

Its why I love SMAC, "War never changes"

[noun12345]

You love smack, eh?

[tau000]

yeah lol, im a SMAC junkie :P

[010enrico]

you know... i never actually beat this game with a space race... i always win by culture

[pspboy7]

Do they have a Alpha Centauri mod for civ 4 yet?

[Soda7777777]

that dude looks sorta like Morgan from SMAC

[EMPPT]

If you notice the endings in Civ III and Civ IV.

You will see this is the same spaceship launched in Civ 3 and the subsequent arrival at Alpha Centauri in Civ 4.

[EasternCalifornia]

lol deadspace, they're all fucked for sure...

[kanadiankopite]

that was unegmatic

[NodPilot42]

Would have been cool if the video showed the explosion that started the events of SMAC.

[shinkyoto]

it's that ship from Civilization3?

[LordMeire]

yeah, Alpha Centauri is 4 lightyears away, it got there!

[sleinfer]

JUst before the events of alpha centaurie

[cursedlion]

one day we will..... we will and i hope i am alive
