    Why not?
    The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power.

      those multi-maps were just a hindrance to the flow of gameplay, IMO.

          It's been a while since I visited these boards, and it begins with good news.
          Hope it'll have wonder-movies. I really liked the wonder-movies.
          A strategy guide? Yeah, it's what used to be called the manual.

              As I posted in a thread at Civ3-General, Gamespot confirmed that Civ IV is on its way... it's official now, boys.

              Civilization IV confirmed


              Firaxis attributes devoted fans and sales of Civ III: Conquests as tipping points.

              One of PC gaming's most revered franchises is back--or at least, on the way.

              Responding to reports that Firaxis is not only deep into development of Pirates 2, but also prepping the next installment in its Civilization franchise. A Firaxis spokesperson confirmed to GameSpot today that, "We are in the early planning stages of Civilization IV ... truly the very beginning stages."

              The spokesperson pointed to high sales of the Civilization III expansion pack, Conquests, and interest noted among fan sites as being the primary reasons behind the studio's decision to go another round with the Civ franchise. "Based on sales of Civ III: Conquests, clearly, people continue to want more Civilization. As long as people continue to want more, we'll deliver."

                  It's encouraging that they're in such early stages, because it means we can still hope to influence the game.

                  So, MargG... when can we expect a Civ 4 Forum?

                      BTW, 'very beginning stages' probably means a 2006 release.

Make sure the things you change are really imbalances and not just something that doesn't fit with your particular style of play." - WesW

                        hehe, far from it... the point is, when you have more than one source reporting the same thing, there is a good probability that thing is true... Pure induction.

                          I'd like to see Master of Magic 2 and a new X-Com title (I believe Sid has the license for both).
                          CivIV... I wish I could say I can't wait, but the sad fact is, I can. Maybe I hyped myself up too much for CivIII. I even bought the tin for double the price of the standard edition. No amount of brushing has removed the bad taste from my mouth. I seem to have failed to buy either expansion.

                          As for X-Com, I was a devoted fan from UFO Enemy Unknown up to Apocalypse. It just got silly from then on. There was the promise of X-Com Genesis, but that never materialised.

                          My future prediction is: expect rushed, half finished franchise milkers, not innovation.

                            I agree, and I'm glad with that, too. I'd much rather see them take as long as possible. With the upcoming C3C patch, possibly one more after that, I can easily see myself waiting till 2006.

                            So, MargG... when can we expect a Civ 4 Forum?
                            I hope soon, so we can get things rolling on all the ideas.
                            However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true? On the other hand, is it really so difficult simply to accept everything that one has been brought up on and that has gradually struck deep roots – what is considered truth in the circle of moreover, really comforts and elevates man? Is that more difficult than to strike new paths, fighting the habitual, experiencing the insecurity of independence and the frequent wavering of one’s feelings and even one’s conscience, proceeding often without any consolation, but ever with the eternal goal of the true, the beautiful, and the good? - F.N.

                              Hey, what's this talk about Pirates II? That was one of my favorite games for Amiga, and also for my Mac Powerbook 100 until I aquired Civ1. Hey, that must have been 12-15 years ago.

                              Will Pirates II be covered by 'Poly? It's a strategy game originally designed by Sid after all...
