Keeping things rollin' tonight, Firaxis Games has released a new patch (v1.0.0.17) for their hit turn-based Strategy title, Civilization V. This latest update features a handful of bug fixes and gameplay tweaks. Here's the skinny:
Special character fix for Windows usernames: Users with non-english characters in their windows username would experience a game crash. This has been fixed, and a forthcoming fix will address an issue related to this where game victories are not recorded in the Hall of Fame.Default resolution fix for DX9: Some users who have non-standard or below the minimum specification resolutions crashed before starting. Now, the system will change to Windowed mode and start so it does not crash.AI city weighting: AI will not quite as freely offer up their cities when asking for peace.Gold per turn glitch: When agreeing to a deal for anything above 5 gold per turn in exchange for something else (like a luxury), the deal would always only pay 5 gold per turn, regardless of the amount proposed. This has been corrected.Just launch the game's auto-updater to start downloading.
