Gaming site The Kartel has posted their preview of Civilization V based on a demo at GDC. Some of the more interesting points from the article:
- Research agreements will give players +15% science for 10 turns in exchange for a lump sum of gold to be paid by both players. Requires Writing.
- The dialogue of leaders speaking in their native tongue will be subbtitled.
- Washington when you declare war on him: "You have mistaken our love of peace for weakness, you will regret this."
- Unit upkeep costs will be higher than in Civ4.
- Units still have one strength rating, and receive terrain and promotion bonuses. The promotions are supposed to be more unique this time around, not just numerical upgrades.
- The handy battle-odds calculator is still here, but prettier.
- The game "still boasts the straightforward python xml scripting and customization".
