yes, i know we all already got it. But perhaps you want to get some friends to play and there ain't no cheaper way of doing it. Just remember, deal is off in 48 hours.

interesting.... you replied, but it still says 0 replies outside.. hmm..

anyhow... i guess the direct link doesn't work. You can see Civ3 for only 4.90 in the left menu bar under "48 hour madness".

and no.. i'm not making any money off of this... don't believe me? well then skip the link and go to gogamer.com yourself

He posts a comment now and then. He would probably rip Conquests in pieces, if he tried it, and right so.

Increase Your PM Length

yin26 was the moderator and organisator of the Civ3-The List of Ideas for Firaxis, where community suggestions for Civ3 had been collected and presented to the developers. While some of these have been included in Civ3, most of them were naturally not. A similar effort has now started for Civ4, although I doubt, that it will have more impact on the game development than the Civ3 list.

Shortly after Civ3 came out, Yin decided, that he doesn't like it and turned into one of the hardest critics in the flame wars late 2001/early 2002. He left this forum almost entirely and only now and then stops by to post a short comment.

I didn't agree with him in many respects and waved him good riddance, when he left, although today I can see, that on some subjects he definitely had a point.

5$ for civ... interesting! i paid approx. 35-45$ for each game (civ3, ptw, c3c) and i don't regret a single penny

iirc, yin26 created a thread "why koreans should be in civ3" which reached the 500 post limit more than just once.

probably thanks to him, korea was in PTW...

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I have always been, and still am, a supporter of plain Civ3 and PtW. They were buggy too as they were released, but enjoyed a good developer/publisher support and were fixed over the time. This is not the case with the second expansion pack.

That said, you can compare me to whomever you want. Not that it would matter.

I just find it mindboggling... for all the complaints (be quiet SR ), I think we'd all acknowledge that Civ3 and its add-ons represent a heckuva bit of code, and an awful lot of entertainment in terms of ROI.

Five bucks. Sheesh.

I live in NYC... a friggin' falafel costs almost that much!!

Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

Hi All:

I still drop by the forums once or twice a month but rarely have anything to say since the days of Civ3. I watched the development of the expansion pack, etc., and was left uninspired. Perhaps Civ4 will be a respectable product, but only if Sid decides to get truly involved.

My take is that Sid has been busy on Pirates 2 and left Civ4 to the rookies. Approach Civ 4 with caution. ...but run out and buy Pirates 2!

Hi yin! I've never played Pirates! 1, but we'll see. Civ4 is made with Soren as lead developer, and if you haven't read his Powerpoint presentation yet, I recommend you to do so. It's interesting as I see it. Good to see you btw, you're sort of one of the original "Mr. Apolyton"s I remember good from my early time here.
