When are the Admin going to start a Civ 4 Thead? One of my Computer Mag. said the release date is sometime in 05.

I haven't heard nothing about a release date yet...

I though a Civ4 adds on thread was posted over here a few months ago.

I would assume that since a date hasn't been announced that it is Xmas '05 or later.

I used to go there but I got discouraged by all the new ideas for increased micromanagement and more complication.

Seeing as Firaxis is currently working on another project, assume later... much later.

I actually hope that CivIV is fairly far into the future. I've not played CivIII to death yet!

Just so long as Civ4 isnt compromised by funds being diverted to other projects, I dont much care how long it takes to get here.

Since Soren at Firaxis is and has been working on Civ4 for a while (along with some others) I stand by my guesstimate.

I guess so, but the main project the company seems to be attempting to get out the door is Pirates! I'd expect Civ4 to receive more attention after Pirates! is done, no?

Totally separate teams, I believe.

They have enough people to staff about 3 projects or so.

I just wish some news would come trough now and then. Just once a month, so I can live in a hype for 1,5 years.

The hype is the most fun before a game gets released. It's in fact even more fun than playing the game itself.

Provide to the hype

the civ 4 list thread is currently being updated and DarkCloud leading the charge to get the "wish list" together in aformat to give Firaxis ...

I love their enthusiasm, but my guess is that not many were involved in the CIV3 wish list and discussions.

I'd say it will be more like Xmas 06. They've only just started with the planning after all. An expansion pack is feasible in one year, a new game starting from scratch isn't.

Is it likely to be a totally new game, or are they more likely to take the base code of Civ3 and modify it?

From what I've read, many of the problems in Civ 3 come about because they were using some of the old code from Alpha Centauri. You can still see some references to that game in some of the text files. So it's probably going to be necessary to start from scratch.
