Hexagons! You see it, and it makes so much sense. I have probably just bought this, in my head.

I am probably going to get this game no matter what. I have every one of them since Civ I.

SIX sided shapes!? This is impossible, sir! I have it on good authority from Sir Isaac Newton himself that a six-sided shape will destroy the fabric of creation itself!

Does look pretty awesome though.

From Squares to Hexagons?! The mind boggles to think what shapes the numer 6 will contain.

A nice surprise. I didn't know they were making one.

Looks not a whole lot better than CivRev, graphically. Gameplay will be awesome I know, but I was kind of hoping for better character models.

CivRev has a totally different style, surely? Can't really compare the two.

Looks sexy to me, I just hope the graphics reflect a bit more what's going on in the cities (like in the remake of Colonization).

It looks fantastic! Even just way the hex lines go slightly over the topography so that the areas blend together...

The first thing I thought when I saw those hexagons was "what about my hotkeys?" I'm so used to having all 8 compass directions on the numeric keypad for moving my units that a hex system just doesn't work. But after thinking about it, there's no up and down (assuming a fixed camera) so you have 147 and 369 for the 6 directions, so the panic is over for me leaving me with just three words.

One.
More.
Turn.

Yay, more Civ!
Just as long as it doesn't have horrible cheating AI, that's all I ask, then I'll be a happy, happy man.

Looks like they finally went back to more realistic and serious looking characters, I didn't like those over-the-top caricatures waving their fists at you.

Went back? Childish graphics? I think people have selective memory here...

Firaxis are staying the course and not deviating, at all! Hooray!

Civ had cartoon graphics compared to its contemporaries. So did 2 and 3.

Heh.
Heroes V switched hexes for squares, Civ V does the opposite. What is this, some kind of developer exchange? :)

@hiddenranbir

You haven't played CivRev then. Anyway, my point was that I like the serious look of this new game.

News Flash:

Hexagons are important as they relate to gameplay. The graphics of a civ game? What the hell is wrong with the world! It can be 2D sprites done in 4 colours for all I care, it's CIV!

Hopefully they will continue the good work of making it run on low spec machines so i can keep it running on my laptop! Another reason to screw the graphics.

Great screenshots but Eurogamer's gallery code really sucks. I can either see a pathetically small image or one that's so big I have to scroll around it.

You should try using this instead.

YEEEAAAHHHH!!!!!!! :D

Ooh hexagons. That's big news. Is it pandering to its rabid fanbase by adding yet more layers of complexity at the expesne of accessibility? I do hope so!

Although lets hope it doesn't go too far that way...
