i can picture firaxis HQ:
A: "look at those nervous guys"
B: "they sound like a bunch of teen boys, horny to see britney's *** pop out  "
A: "let's tell them about diplomacy, so they calm down"
B: "no, let 'em fidget around a bit more"
A: "come on, they've waited long enough"
B: "i know, but that makes it even more fun to read their comments"
A: "ah... all right..."
B: "hey, why don't we delay the patch a few more day *biggrin*"
A: "you're a real sadist  "
B: "thank you  "
[...]
... and that's why we won't find our until tomorrow

It's not effective since if you can't build a road, you can't access the Luxury/Strategic resources. Obviously this was an attempt to please those people, like me, who don't like having Railroads everywhere, since you can't build a railroad without a road. But it's not going to work. It would have been much better separating the railroads from roads, and allowing us to select the terrain types for that instead, independantly of roads. |
Yes, but I believe that's probably a hardcoded issue. As far as this is concerned, with not reaching strategic resources, Dan already mentioned that already every tile has a commerce bonus, allowing for roads on any tile. But, in a scenario, you could, for example, Start off so that no one can build on Mountainous terrain, and set it up so that once you get say, a dynamite technology, that you'll then be able to build roads there (by having the tech add +1 commerce to all mountain terrain). Personally, I don't see a problem with this.
Besides, it has nothing to do with diplomacy editing! Which we are dying to know...please guys, don't let us waste away! We love you and your programming skills more than you'll ever know!

Well yes, that would be a good thing, but I doubt it's going to work like that. It's going to be a blanket thing, just like Mines are now, so that you can only require a tech for all roads, not just those built on Mountains. I applaud their attempt to let us try and control railroads, but this approach is pretty much useless IMO.
PS They removed the hard coding for a number of things now, i.e. Luxury icons will be joining the list soon. So it's not like it's impossible to do the same with railroads.

The sad thing is, I think he's right....
I WAN THE PATCH!!! If I don't get the patch soon, I'll do something to myself! I don't know what yet, but I'll do something to myself!!! (Probably just take a walk or something [hey, that sun would be brutal after the amount of time I have spent indoors waiting for this).
Seriously, I can't wait to see it.

About the bug mentioned above... I have seen it.
Here is another suggestion/request:
Can you guys (Firaxis) give us one of those scenarios you used for testing???? Please????

I also wonder if there's any chance for an early release on the patch like they've done in the past.
[does this happen to anyone else?
