Civ V -- Brave New World Expansion Pack (Summer 2013)

[Gusington]

I will definitely do that when I get home...tried the voucher at GMG yesterday for Rising Storm and it was the firsf game it did not work for.

That begs the question...is it worth 20.00?

Are there new units included for existing civs?

[steve58]

^...lots of new units.  Some are unique to the new civs, some are available to all.  There is even an Xcom Squad :D

You guys think it's worth the hefty price?

Try using voucher code GMG20-F202F-UI40F at Greenmangaming.

It should knock off 20%, plus GMG is giving $4 cash back or $6 GMG credit, so it should cost you about ~$20, less if you count the $4 cash back or $6 credit...

I used a 20% off code for the pre-order a month or so ago and it worked just fine (wish they'd had the $4 cash back or $6 credit deal then).  Got my Steam code this morning and it worked fine.

I get a message that says "unable to use the voucher".

^ Well that bites, sorry for the mis-info.  Maybe because it just released today.  Odd though that I could use a 20% voucher on a pre-order. :-\

[Gusington]

Yeah I just tried it and also could not use it...going to wait and see if it becomes part of the Steam sale.

[Barthheart]

^same here. I got it fer about $20 using the GMG voucher.

Not very much money fer the amount of new content.

[Gusington]

The voucher worked for you?? And you didn't preorder?

To be honest the feature I cannot walk away from is the Scramble for Africa scenario...yummy.

I'm trying to get it purchased right now.  Just got in from my drinks w/ the city council guy that pushed through my traffic idea.  Fascinating dude - turns out we know about 10-12 of the same people from the military, including my brother's godfather, who has known me since I was about 3 years old.

What do you mean 'get it purchased?' Isn't it just click...done?

I had to update my credit card info

I read on Gamestop or IGN that Brave New World disables some features from Gods and Kings and the base game. Can anyone verify? I don't want to lose DLC or scenarios.

If that is not true I am going to buy ASAP.

I haven't heard that or noticed any disabled features. It does change the game. I did read that Brave New World doesn't include some features from Gods and Kings.

^What do you mean?

I am a hair away from pulling the trigger, even for the high price. It just looks too good and the scenarios (Scramble for Africa, American Civil War) are right in my wheelhouse.
