Hopefully a crack soon, it seems its hard or nobody cares to crack this game. Quite a few of the versions have not been cracked - except some chinese thing? Haven't played in a few months, maybe its becoming playable? But as someone else mentioned, still way to expensive to buy, because of all the silly dlcs.
maybe one day I'll actually do a playthrough instead of just testing these patches for a few turns, as it always seems each patch has more fixes then the previous ones, so I don't bother. One day years from now, I may enjoy it. Now to wait for the Chinses dudes to crack it yet again. I mean WTF, the changelog is insane... Fucking rediculous they released the fucking game in shitty state it was and still is in, I"m not a beta tester for them, they're not paying me to test their shit, nor would I pay them to get an incomplete game, retards. On to something else I guess.
2600k, GigaByte R9 290x, 8 gis of ram on Windows 7 X64
Would be funny if some old casual gamer buys the collection and enjoying it immensely for the coming 3-4 years. After that he will give a second playthrough a go, casual playtime schedule for another 2 years.
Would be awesome.
And no, I don't know why I am sharing this with you guys.

the UA seems to be faster embarked units and the ability to move after landing + no movement cost on pillage. (same words as before, just slightly off)
Berserkers are a Longswordsmen replacement that gets the amphibious upgrade and movement. If this unit becomes a 3 move, 18 attack free amphib promo + no pillage movement cost unit; why on earth would you ever bother building Knights??
the Ski Infantry are actually that!!! Literally infantry with Skis…
It should be Denmark/Norway/Iceland/Sweden and not just Denmark
CIV should be nations and deal with real history. If you want something it should be the Kalmar Union and Erik of Pomerania, but understandable they went with the Vikings and Harald Bluetooth.
In games as HOI it is fine to be able to create a Scandinavian nation, but this is because we deal with possible fiction. CIV should not.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
