Hey and WELCOME to my gaming thread for all your gaming answers and mine, well mostly mine. I have some questions about some games so feel free to tell me the answer.

Team Fortress 2- If im a spy pretending to be a sniper, do i have a sniper dot.

What does " spray " do?

As a spy if i pretend to be a scout am i very fast?

Also, TF2 HAS TAKEN OVER MY LIFE! IVE PLAY IT FOR 30 HOURS AND IVE HAD IT FOR A WEEK AND A BIT! BUY IT, BUY IT!

Connection Problem - When i got my new laptop, I connected to my wireless network. Internet was working fine, But when i try to join a server in a game it'll work fine 90% of the time, other 10% i cant. And when my brother is playing on xbox live and he joins a server, i get disconected. Then we keep trying to join a server and we disconect each other and i end up getting punched in the face. So Plase help.

Civelization 4- Is it a good game? i've watched some videos of it, And all the units are giants. If you no me, would i like it? and if i would which is the expansion pack that has them all.

Hope you can answer them all. I made 1 thread instead of 3 :D.

About Civ 4:
Civ 3 is better imo (i have all civ games + expansions (i love them))

If you do want Civ 4 because of the silghtly better graphics, also get Beyond the Sword expansion, adds a few more features to the game.
 
I played the demo, I hate games were i need to read alot, And its like a giant boring game of chess, and i dont no how to play:(. MAby if i started out on earth learning how to play it may have been good. But the demo ruined my expirence and ive decided to keep my money lol.
 
Civ 3 is so unbalanced and easy to win, the ai is terrible. at least civ 4 ai can be a bit of a challenge
 
I always wanted to get civ, but the demo was a let down since you start of in space, you realy dont no what to do, maby if they added a TUTORIAL!!!! Yeah i've heard alot of bad thing about the ai in civ 3, they keep braging they number 4 has smarter ones,
 
The AI in civ3...well, its like trading salt for gold in the modern world. Its just not supposed to go that way, but its easy to manipulate everything to go your way. In civ4, the ai actually knows how to make fair trades.

And theres a tutorial in the retail version, I guess its not in the demo.
 
Well In the demo i researched for Shields. DId shields appear after an hore of hitting end turn... NO! I WaS SO SAD I QUIT THE GAME! I wonder if theres another demo. Anyone hae any answers to my other questions?
 
BUMP. Also when i play some games, The game may close and it says, Display driver nv(somthing) has stop responding and has sussesfully been recoved. Also sometimes in Tf2. It will close and my backround will become black. I will get an egine error saying somthing like " cant load bump 53, allocation of 1130034 bytes failed ( i think its somthing like that, not sure but the big number ) "

You have the latest drivers for your apparently Nvidia video card, correct?

Civ 3's AI is fine once oyu turn it up to the higher levels.

If you want good gameplay

CIV 1 (original) is the way to go, terrible graphics though but, graphics arn't everything.

Civ 2 is good but they didn't fix some problems (a spearman destroying a battleship)
 
I've been [playing civ 4 for a couple of hours, good game, very long lurning curve, I just need to grasp taching and the whole game and i'll be good, any tips or hints?
 
Its really your choice. The expansions don't change the gameplay much apart from adding a couple of new features.
