Civ 5 Multi-player

[Destroyer]

Hey guys, I wanted to bring up the issue of multi-player for Civ 5. Civ 4 still has a GIANT multi-player base after all these years and I imagine civ 5 will have an even bigger one. I wanted to get peoples thoughts on how it would run...like, will the game be more geared to single player or multi-player? If it is in fact geared toward single player, will we be able to MOD ourselves a good multi-player situation? Will we still have our turned based game play? Will a league be built in? (as in some TW games)...just some questions that I thought needed answering.

All we know is from the Civ V website which states there will be a "community hub". this, supposedly, allows us to converse, share mods, maps, play games, stuff like that.

I would like video chat enabled in order to simulate a negotiating room (either bilaterally or multilaterally and if multilaterally with the option of side rooms)!

Multiplayer was mentioned as well (in the same sentence as the community hub stuff-not criticising you for missing it, just so you know where to look for it if you want to check yourself )
