Civ4 - Is that good news or bad news? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

October 2006 at the earliest, preferably October 2007 otherwise why bother? Any sooner and they could just release two more expantions to Civ3, make just as much money and get the same result.

I'm scared to be happy about this news

I think I know what you mean: When you have shared many gifts and made relations to the other AI civs very good, and suddenly for no apparent reason they declare war on you. They do this even if you can beat the hell out of them easily and then you have the silly alliances... in that case, both puny and majestetic forces assemble behind your back to swarm in from all sides. No matter how good a diplomat you are.

Firaxis is just a bunch of cheap greedy bastards that rip off 1/100000 of a brain idiots with their so called "games" that is not any better than romance of the three kingdoms series from koei, with their civilization 3, and now they're going to make a 4? With what their infantry? tank? A guy can make a better game in his basment. How much did firaxis spend on the whole civilization 3 project with the expansions, five bucks? Because it seems like it.

I'd also like to add my vote to hoping Sid does a Colonization II one day that is more fleshed out and deeper than the original.

I just hope that Civ IV isn't CivII with different graphics like some wanted CivIII to be... If the game play of CivIII were implemented with better diplomacy like in MOO and a few other games it would be great.

No, it's you that need to grow up. Playing little kid games with generic units that is extremely low in number. Can't memorize the units? Well that's your probem.

Yep. Have you tried the C3C Age of Discovery campaign?
It reminded me a little bit about Colonization, with the treasures you need to bring home and stuff. Allthough it does use the poor Civ3 game engine, it's quite fun.

Also a great paradox game called Victoria has used some of these good old Colonization concepts, like the pops in which has different roles and stats, and the loads of different resources in which you can trade to get income, or use for production. You need for instance a number of smallarms to build a division and you need clippers and artillery pieces to build manowars, etc.

Dont forget that the feature set is going to be drastically cut down even from CivIII, in order to be able to fit all of the required functions onto the XBox controller.

But at least there will be 3-d graphics to compensate.



thats a joke, by the way.
