Does Civ5 own anyone else's computers late in the game? Like turns that take a few minutes?
Yes. And my shit is fast as fuck. The only way I've found to combat it is play a smaller world map.
That is annoying as hell... I've actually taken to reading a book after I end my turn.
It's definitely not a hardware issue, although you probobly already figured as much. I was looking into this problem a few months ago and found some threads on the 2K Games forums about it. It seems to be caused by some bugs and I'm not sure if they ever got fixed or not. Basically, it varries, but whenever you are playing on a larger map and conquer around your 60th city or so, turns start taking forever and eventually the game will just crash and you can't finish it.You're telling me. I love playing on the superhuge map setting so there are more tiles. It'll actually get to the point that you just don't bother playing that savegame any more and start a new one.
Imagine my frustration: being afraid to click 'next turn' even though I've got 4.4GHz, 6 cores with 12 threads, 18GB ram and dual GTX560's in SLI.

Yes it does, and it's been shown to be a bug with the engineers, as each step they take reanalyzes every square to see what's optimal to put there. Apparently late game the CPU builds an absolute ton of engineers too. You could make some modification that limits their growth possibly, but anything you do probably would end up crippling the entire purpose of them.
I wonder if they will fix it? Or is it already in the lets-not-bother-with-further-patches price range?

I still like Civ2 the best
