Anyone for a PBEM game? Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Now many people are just testing the PBEM ability, and seem to know that it works. So, I would like to have some guys on for the first PBEM game in CtP II that would be so organized, and playable like the ones before, in CtP I.
I think we can find some people that want playing, for sure.
Come on you guys, I know you want to play. I want it, too .
If someone agrees, we'd switch to a more detailed discussion of settings.

I'll give it a go. Settings don't matter. Any civ will do.

Well, I'm waiting for your PBEM test results (20 turns against yourself ) before I buy it. But if you are successful in your test... who knows? I might try it.

Full PM-box? Change here!

Like I mentioned in the thread in Ctp-multiplayer, what about the problem with human-human diplomacy?

AFAIK, it's not possible (I've tried 70 turns of hotseat)

Quinns, you little bastard! Go out and buy CtP II Right Now !!! It will work, so move and buy. And better a full, legal version.

Enter the AD-FREE zone

Well, like I mentioned elsewhere, I tried exchanging maps and offering cease-fires, and those didn't work. So I expect that exchanging techs is out of the question. If you don't mind those, then I guess it's ok.

OK, I strongly advice quinns not to buy ctpII, this game is totally bugged, and there's nothing more than CTP, the interface, that's the only thing that changed....Anyway, I tried HotSeat yesterday, with two fellas, it didn't crash, as long as you dont try to use a scenario to avoid the first steps of the game (which are really slow), and above all it seems that it's impossible to save a game and to load it back.....

I didn't try to install the patch, cuz it dont fix anything in the HS/PBEM part.

The Activision's behaviour is scandalous, they don't do anything to fix all that mess....

Support Apolyton

I'm definately up for a game. Just finished my second impossible/maurading(sp?)/8 civ/gigantic map game. I won without any cheats and no restarts. Would love to play vs. some people. How about a 2/1/01 start date. Any civ is fine with me. Let me know the details.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete


It's a shame about the diplomacy.
I guess any game will be an out-and-out conquest one now.

berXpert and myself might be interested in joining or setting up a game at CGN, if anyone is still interested.
