I care a lot about multiplayer support, but your poll doesn't offer any choices that even come close to my preferences.

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

This poll was just to see how many wants to pay for online gaming and how many doesn't want to play online (or at least if there's cash on the table).

What more options could it have been to satisfy your needs

I have just noticed a spelling mistake here:

It was supposed to be

I would like to play online at their site

Can this still be fixed...I'll try

Chris I think that ADG is just trying to see if people wish to play a monthly fee or not. Which is debatable of course.

If you look at my poll about making Civilization a professional game I include different options.



As far as the whole monthly fee thing, like I suggested in my thread, it would be a good idea to have basic services available for free and then you pay if you want the bells and whistles. That would be worth it to hard core gamers like me, but to the person who just plays occasionally they would be able to play there as well.

I think the moderators-only rule is there so that we can't skew poll results by changing the options once the ballots are in. If you ask nicely, the good moderator fairy might do it for you.

It's not an hour. A good turn time-limit is three-minutes, and almost nobody uses all of that at the beginning.

Boy with only 3 minutes, you'd be screwed in the end-game unless you're on a small map.

Of course, you could play PBEM or Simultaneous Offline Moves - both thoroughly discussed elsewhere. Take all the time you want to play the game...against intelligent opponents.

Uncle Funk, just admit it, you've never played Civ or Cvi2 before. Since that is the case you wouldn't have a chance against even the AI on Chieftain.

Most multiplayers play over the Internet and host the games on their own comps. WE DO NOT WANT TO HAVE TO GO TO A SERVER!!!!!!

This poll should be junked.

What the hell has that to do with the poll? The poll wasn't about if you wanted to play over som other server or not, the poll was about how many was hardcore multiplayers and how many was "just" singeplayers!!!

I personally would not want to pay a monthly fee. Also i would like to have it on a site as in CTP2 or better than nothing the zone. As long as it has some m-player capability I will be happy. For example i played ctp2 online allot and enjoyed that proving it doesn't have to be perfect just enough to be playable.
