	Preliminary List of Suggestions For Civ VIII Tired of ads?

I don't want the last Civ game I get to play before I die to suck, so I think we better get cracking on some suggestions.

Begin.

I'd like them to bring back the little ocean waves and flowing rivers of Civ. 1. I really miss them.

That's good...even navigable rivers. Also by Civ VIII we should have FRIGGING CANALS.

You are a canal!!!

Been called lots of stuff, but that's a first.

Bring back that Russian chick that was in the advisor panel from Civ 2.

I hope Civ VIII won't use up too much storage space in my brain. Bloatware

There is a favor that those who design Civ VIII could do for me...Skull sucking aliens invade option. Leaders nuke the world population way down so they leave because of no human brain food, and restart with tech amidst the ruins.

Also, asteroid option. Sometime during the game asteroids hit and create devastation followed by an ice age which clears up.

Ted, yeah I mentally undressed her a few times during negociations. I'd have given a few cities for her dress on the floor. Hey...wasn't that the egyptian chick though?

Drake, I don't think I'll have enough memory to run it in that case.

Don't worry. If your head is really as empty as it seems, you'll have plenty of room for upgrades...

Looking forward to some cool upgrades in fact.

Also, I'd like a Colonization option. One of the large continents is left without habitation and the colonizers get to fight over it.

As long as the graphics are smooth in my discharged plasma hologram display...

Who would civilized a planet without ocean waves?

	Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I've been playing the Civ VIII Beta and my recommendations...

The game must be waterproof for those future cities under water. And it must be heat resistant for the city that isn't.

Communism needs to be improved. It sounds good in the manual, but it doesn't even work.

Each turn shouldn't take a lifetime. I was thinking 3 generations to finish a full game - at MOST.

There seems to be programming loop with the Senate. The same pop up windows on the same trivial stuff keep coming up.

The culture flip announcement needs to be changed to something other than "I'm Lovin' It!"

My Finance and Economic Advisors' bribes are making me extremely rich very fast. Is that normal?

Maybe I'm playing it wrong, but my Military Advisor keeps giving me faulty or clearly misleading information. What good is that?

Everytime I attack someone that is evil other civilizations get upset. WHY?

United Nations is still useless.

The AI needs to be improved... no leaders starting wars they clearly cannot win. Some of the AI Civs cannot seem to progress out of Monarchy.

There doesn't seem to be any way to reduce corruption other than going to Anarchy.

The governor in one of my cities is a robot from the future, but he's stupid. He also mentions he admires Germany???

Here, here! The rate of corruption as a function of distance from the capital is way too steep. Perhaps it can be flattened out as communication advances are discovered.

I think there should be more "less PC" resources... slaves, women, african diamonds, sweet labor, drugs, etc.

	29-06-2005 21:26									#26

Japher, isn't "sweet labor" covered by your "african slave women" option?

	29-06-2005 21:27									#27

Maybe that was a misread.

sweat labor?



that could also be covered by african slave women...

Me thinks Pyrodrew was opting for revolution from our current government. Same with the 'robot from the future' jibe.

Japher, I'd be willing to give it a go.
