My heart tells me to buy it right away.
My brain tells me to buy it right away.
My fingers can`t wait to move the mouse when my eyes look into the holyness of the best game there will ever (I hope) be constructed.
In other words. I agree with you Bartemans.
ASAP.

Noooooooo Way!!!! I am NOT going to subject myself to another agonizing round of months of frustration trying to get a poorly programmed product to work nor will I put up with endless abuse from Activision's technical support people.
You'd have to guarentee that Activision will cheerfully refund my money if, after the last patch is installed I STILL can't get the game to run (without crashing every 2 or 3 turns). You'd have to guarentee that Activision will cheerfully provide suppport for the WHOLE game, not just part of it.

Of course, I'm buying the game.
Asking this question here in this forum is a bit pointless. Those who aren't going to buy the game won't even post/lurk here.
This thread in the OT, however, would be a more accurate gauge.
MarkG, was that SPAM  ?

I remember when CTP1 was coming out. I waited sooooo long for Civ3 that I just couldn't wait for CTP1. I believed all the hype and all the reviews which said it was a great game. I waited for the game to come out and bought it within the first week. Then the frustration set in followed by the disappointment. Then I was made at Activision for releasing such a low quality game. Than at myself for being stupid enough to believe the hype and immediately buy the game. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.
Now the hype starts again with all the great features and I can't help but wanting to buy the game right away and in fact I was actually starting to believe and trust Activision that they would indeed release a quality game.
Then No more than 8 Civs Why- How hard is that to implement and how often was that request. Hotseat is in the current game but not in CTP2 nor PBEM why: I like multiplayer but did you ever try to play a Civ game live over the internet, so for a Civ game multiplayer is Hotseat or PBEM. Now why are these features not in the game. They are very easy to implement and some were in the CTP1. They stress the game, and games under stress experience bugs. What this indicates to me is that during testing bugs were found with these features, so instead of fixing the bugs which we don't have time to do and make the Christmas release, we will just remove the feature. What does that say about the quality of the game. I am very tired about buying games with great potential and then being disappointed because the simply things don't work. I will not let myself be treated like a sucker again, so I will not buy the game upon release. It is obviously not ready so why should I buy it and be frustrated and then mad at myself for again being a sucker. For those who will buy the game. Good luck! It is your decision and your money and I hope you are not frustrated and it is a good game. I just don't believe it will be and past on experience no not to trust or believe the pre release hype nor the previews, at least for Activision games. The developers may be of high quality but they probably still have the same people running marketing that released CTP way to early and with way too many bugs. I believe that history is repeating. Again Good luck to those who buy the game upon release.

Yes, I guess I am repeating myself. I just got mad and wanted to vent my frustration. I remember the anticipation of CTP and then the let down. I was really looking forward to this game and then no more than 8 Civs, no PBEM, no hotseat, no canals What are we getting - diplomacy and then no space either. I am just mad about getting excited about a game that is just going to let me down again. And I am mad at Activision for publishing another low quality game.

The bottom line is people:
When you settle for less, you'll always be dissapointed. Trust me, all those 'little' features we asked for and were not implemented will hurt, and hurt bad, after you shell out hard cash for the game. And there's not a damned thing that Pyaray or Mark G. can say that'll make things better. All we can do now is hope that the Civ3 team will take a look at CTP2 and implement those tiny features that we need. The hype is dying and the bad news is coming out so close to the release date. Whatever you do, don't forget the dissapointment you felt when CTP1 was released.
