Anno 2070

[MPX309]

Ok, seeing as I can't get SC 4 to run smoothly on my comp now (yes I've tried software mode, all sorts) I've just bought 2070 on steam, anyone else checked this out? Got some decent reviews

interested in this too, if i may add a question to your thread.

How does it compare to Civ 5?

its in a different timezone. and i believe anno 2070 is not that much about warfare, but i might be wrong on that. my brother loved it though.

I thought that game was more comparable to cities xl rather than civ 5? But then again I could be wrong I haven't played it.

On a different note why won't civ 5 work?

I love Anno 2070, nice graphics, good gameplay, and good in general.

they are not comparable, one is turn based and one is rts.

ahh cool! well with a game like simcity then

hmm, If I had to choose i would go for anno, it's just better in general, you can have several islands, you have to arrange trade routs, you have to manage air polution. and there are a lot of needs to fulfil.

EDIT: Check out NsN for some good tips and gameplay:

Ohhhh. I can't get sim city to work either, it crashes all the time. I think it's a windows 7 comparability problem.

If you want a sim city replacement cities xl is as close to and better than it

Actually have you tried right clicking the sim city 4 shortcut, selecting properties, selecting the comparability tab and selecting Run this program in compatibility mode for: and selecting Windows xp from the drop down? I've not done it and have uninstalled sim city 4 so can't right now but if Windows 7 is the problem that should fix it.

I've never played it, I know someone that keeps telling me to buy it but I don't think it'll be my kind of game.

Anno is fun but hard to get into, not comparable to Sim City or CIV.

Yeah, I've tried all sorts, The game is too buggy to enjoy anyway, even if I did get it running "properly".

 

Anno looks like alot of fun though, can't wait to sink my teeth in tomorrow
