you know, ive always kinda been against launchers and ♥♥♥♥ all they do is make ♥♥♥♥ take longer and be a pain in the ass, but this game and its ♥♥♥♥♥♥ 2k launcher is the worst thing ever ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ made, this game was so close, so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ close to being really good but then this hateful pile of Chihuahua ♥♥♥♥ has NEVER ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ worked for more then 3 opens, why does it do this? i surely don't know, i don't even think god knows or Allah or what-have-you ive verified the integrity of the files, deleted it and re downloaded it AND ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ NOTHING has fixed this, its not just the opening of the game that is way too ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ convoluted and just dosen't work, sometimes ill be playing online with my mates, just having fun and playing into the wee hours of the morning then, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ then the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 2k launcher crashes, not even civ, just the launcher and then the game is ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and wont properly open, WHY DO YOU HAVE TO KEEP THE LAUNCHER OPEN???????????? WHAT DO YOU GAIN FROM THAT? WHO THOUGHT IT'D BE A GOOD IDEA TO FORCE PEOPLE TO HOPE TO GOT THEIR ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ LAUNCHER DOSEN'T CRASH, apart from that massive glaring painful problem that keeps me up at night, when the game dosen't break its actually alot of fun to play, and nukes are nut worthy, overall -9992/10, 8 for how fun it is -10000 for the launcher, ♥♥♥♥ you sid meier you wanker.
