My dad and I are currently doing a Hot Seat Game, and I've selected Korea as one of our opponents. I can be giving you some info on them as soon as I (or my father) bump into them.

I just played them, I was just curious on other people's impression of them - but I checked a Civ forum where people sort of discussed the same.

I have been playing the game for a few days now and liking it; but it crashes so much that I'm frustrated. I have checked the net for solutions, I have tried lots of changes on the options, but nothing. Anyone here know a solution to this? I'll drop playing the game because of this cause I can't play it decently. My PC is much more than enough for handling the game, I play it at high on every graphic option without any freeze. But I tried changing some to medium to see if it will solve, but no. Any help?

That is surprising. Have you updated the game to the latest versions? Because since the last couple of patches, I have not experienced a single crash.

You definitely need to patch it up asap. Otherwise you'll be left with a mess that is broken in every meaning of the word 
Speaking of Broken, Korea is hilariously Imbalanced. In my current game they are easily the runaway CIV, running around with Lancers in 1050 AD

Yes, unfortunately it's up to date  It is version 1.0.1.383
I experience crashes in nearly every 7-8 turns... Maybe I should try it with DirectX 9?

I have crashes related to autosave. If I already have 5 autosaves stored and it tries to make another one it crashes. I had set in options to keep only 5 autosaves. You might turn off autosave or keep a close eye on your number of autosaves and see if that could be the problem.

It autosaves every 5 turns and only keeps 5 autosaves.
(Edit: Nevermind. Now I have opened the game again to play and it crahed at the first turn. I have deleted it. I don't have this kind of patience. Maybe I'll try after some months when I hear they have fixed crashes) And the crashes only happen when a leader wants to speak with me at the beginning of my new turn.
(I don't know why, but it says it is my second post in a row but I still see Elodin's post between my previous one and this, if he has deleted it. Wierd :S)

Oh yes, always DivX 9, I don't know what the issue is with their DivX 10-11, most of the times I can't even start the game in that mode, and if I succeed to start it, I guaranteed cannot load saves! I'm positive that's the reason.

Really? Again my temper did the job to cause me delete the game, damn it!

Can't you just re-download it?
About Korea and balance - I just had a game as Siam where my neighbour was Korea, but I played one-city challenge, so I guess you can't really compare. They were pretty friendly all along, and I was pretty much on keel with them up to the rennaissance or so, where I just lost general way to all the other factions due to science simply being too slow on one-city challenge (guess it has to be so with science costing absolute amounts whereas all other features scale with city numbers.

My father has DivX10 on his computer, and it works fine.
Then again, he just upgraded it, so maybe Noct's PC is not strong enough to handle the DivX10 game??

Well, who knows, I think my computer should run DivX 11, but this game just completely messes up when I try to play in other than DivX 9.

I have Geforce GTX 460 1GB unshared video, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit 6 GB Ram, Intel Core i7 870 2.93 GHz
Isn't that good enough? I was able to play Crysis, Metro 2033, New Vegas, Portal 2 all in highest settings.

I've had a couple of weird ... issues (bugs?) with this game, that perhaps some of you can help me with. When I build air units or nukes and place them in my city on sleep, the units just dissapear - except they still use the tactical ressources I used on building them. For instance, if I have a Stealth Bomber and place him in my city, there's no unit icon, and I can't seem to activate him in any way, but I still have one less Aluminum available overall. Is there something I don't understand?

I remember that with Air units, there usually is a number displayed near the city, if airborne units are stored there. I doubt they would actually disappear, they are probably just invisible and it should be possible to summon them.

Near that city's name there is a number indicating how many air units there are in this city. You click on that number and it opens all the units there by names. The greyed out ones have already used their turn. Your sleeping ones will be with white names. Click on its name and you shall be able to order it around again.

Oh, that might have been the case, I just assumed there would be a unit icon visible like with the other units.

Which ones do you have in mind? I still think most of the late game units are overpowered in the sense that pretty much everything from Rifflemen or at least Infantry and onwards lets you trample any opponent who doesn't have this unit.
EDIT > Another question of my own: Have any of you tried playing with MODs - and if yes, can you confirm that playing with MODs activated means that you don't unlock achievements? Or was that just a general mess-up of one of my previous versions of the game?
