	Ok, I really need some new news! Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

I'm starting to suffer.
It's been weeks, maybe months, since we got some new news from the cIV front.
And with news I mean REAL NEWS. Not something like: "The armor will have an attack value of 25 instead of 23"

gimme some new news.
Firaxis, release our pain! Either chose to release a public beta, or open the cIV website and disclose everyday some major feature of cIV that we still don't know

Or at least tell us when the new news will be released.

Of course you can send me an advance copy of the game as well. I don't care it comes in a blank box or something, because the artwork isn't ready yet

Well, I'm developing a strategy to manage the time until the game review (as I wrote, I'm waiting for a few good review from real player before to buy the game).

I'm considering to hybernate myself until november.

Then I'll warm up back to life, just in time for my birthday and to receive the related gift from my wife.
I'll check the review and chose: either Civ IV or a new tie.

It's defense value will also be 25. That good enough?

I've been studying all the cIV news we have so far and I know all we know about the game so far by heart. Don't try to fool me by telling me new news inhere that's not new news

Soren, we know you're lurking around here
Releave our pain and say something really awesome!

I mean, if you don't do that, we may all commit suicide, and you know: death civ fans won't buy the new game!

	Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

From that screenshot I have noticed a few things,

1. The tree's have been improved on
2. The farms have been improved on
3. The scaling of the wonder buildings seem to have increased
4. Seems as if the polygons on the buildings has also increased
5. Textures appear to be better
6. Some of the buildings/improvements have more detail
7. The roads are still as ugly as hell. Firaxis, I suggest toning down the road colour to a lighter dirt, and decreasing the pixel width by about 10 pixels.

	Inflate your Upload Space

From the look of that city, it seems like wonders or special buildings replace huts and houses within the city tile itself. I wonder if that's why there are so many houses/settlements outside the city tile or if those are a separate object.

	Full PM-box? Change here!

I hope that the city won't be all wonders with a few houses in the end. The cIIIv city screen never gave the impression that there were actually living a lot of people in the biggest cities. I hope this won't be the case again in cIV

Well, aren't that a couple of boat into the lake? Just "fishing square" symbol or now we can navigate river?

Maybe I'm just me, missing some old info...

Oh well, just don't shout at me!
