Guys,
Out of curiosity, what makes this game an 18 rated?

No 2560x1440 resolution for the swift?
Shame about the 2560x1440 not been an option. Regular Civ 5 can be set to that resolution so i would expect this to be ironed out soon. Think I'll hold off playing for now

From everything Iv seen it appears the AI is worse than CIV5 and it has a **** load of features removed.
dont see the point personally if you have a full civ5, it will be another 2 expansions before its up to scratch.

It has 2560x1440 just not at 144Hz. Im playing at 2560x1440 60hz no problem.
The game is very good so far for me. It's taking a bit of adjusting but have enjoyed the first few hours so far.
In a window or full screen?
Turn 132 played for 50 mins. Thoughts so far:
Pros:
Nice music
Good Intro as always
Cons:
Too much going on in the map, not in a good way. just don't care.
Research screen is a bit of a mess, hard to navigate around. I was going for a cultural win and it was quite difficult to work out how to go for that. You can switch a tab so it just shows cultural research but its still a little messy.
Lots of my turns I was not doing anything.
CIV5 became really good after patches and two expansions, im not quite sure if that will be true with this game.
So quite negative I may change my mind once ive put some more hours into this. But I just haven't had any enjoyment factor to it at all. Previous civ or other 4x games I would be like just one more turn, and I find myself two hours later saying the same thing. But im not getting that vib at all with this game.

Why isn't 1080p or higher not an option for this game?
It is ? I'm playing at 1440p.
Full screen.
