  • Civilization 5 is the fantastic Turn Based Grand Strategy video game where you are tasked with leading your nation to a certain victory be it science victory, conquest victory or even an easy diplomatic victory. It can be tricky to pull off a victory especially in multiplayer however if you manage to exploit and glitch civilization V you can give yourself an unfair advantage against AI and rival Players. So naturally today The Spiffing Brit is going to be demonstrating an efficient way of destroying friendships by asking if CIV 5 is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits or if the Unlimited culture glitch could perhaps put you at an unfair advantage... I mean surely spiff owning all the social policy improvements and dominating all the science in the world is a rough demonstration of just how overpowered this glitch can be. You will be able to have nukes in civs before any other player!
    So sit back and watch as the spiffing brit tests to see if Civilization 5 is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits or if the Infinite gold glitch is broken and overpowered!!!
    What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.

    Spiff doesn't really _play_ games so much as he ambushes them in a dark alley, strips them of their balance, pummels them to within an inch of their design principles, then rifles through their pockets for exploits.

It's more for when you have done or are doing something that may inconvenience someone else. In this context you might say something like "뭐라고 하셨습니까?" (polite/formal, meaning "What did you say?")

      @@BraghDaMan maxing it out is actually rather devastating :D I had a game where I was in a global war by accident ( i started going for culture victory but got forced into war)
      either way, by getting all honor policy i manged to "EARN" gold even doh i was -60 gold per turn :D I was profiting. I constantly bought new units / buildings. And still ended up in 1000 gold.
      Yes its not a flawless thing, but my point is. it does help in warfare and if you are going for domination victory i highly recommend using it.
      Also tradition for culture is better than honor vs barberians. 3 instantly + per turn is better than a small burst when ever you kill a barb. other players can snipe the barb, it cost gold to maintain the unit. but on the bright side you can "grind" barbarian camps along as you use archers to kill and let them keep spawning. but that's about it.
      Honor is mutch better for culture.
      Libirty is better for faster expanding empries as described.
      and honor is mainly good for war.

      @efulmer8675 7 месяцев назад
