About the topic:
The tech tree seems rather small.... (not the image). I've recently played into the middle ages of Rise and Rule and I am very impressed with what they did with the tech tree. It got awesome choices to make and the techs you don't need for area advancements are carefully chosen. So you can either invest in a military branch that will not take you further or hop to the next age and race to the superior techs there, but meanwhile have a weaker military. Additionally you have to discover most of the resources. It's really cool.
Civ4's tree looks rather dull in comparison, but what we can see is that the age thing is gone and its built from the ground up. Before I had played Rise and Rule I thought this'd be a good idea, now I am not too sure.
edit: no, I think I am wrong, there is still an age thing, but it seems that advances can have prerequistes over ages as well. Flight and Divine Right are the two advances that don't require anything, but are in the midst of the tree (graph). |
Divine Right has Monarchy as well as Theology as pre-req's, and Flight requires Combustion and Physic's. Look in the upper right of each tech to see what the pre-req's are as well as what lines they have drawn to them, since all are required to have been researched before that advance can be discovered.
I like the streamlined effect since otherwise the tech screen would look like spaghetti.
