Hot Seat was not mentioned among the multiplayer modes. I hope that was simply an oversight.

Since hotseat is basically PBEM without a needed save, I don't see how they could have one without the other.Originally posted by Roman

This is funny but I just heard that there will be a Civ4 (a far cry from me too involved in pre-release Civ3). I must say that after reading the first post on the facts of Civ4, I like what I am hearing. I never did get into Civ3 because I did not like the "hard-coded" nature of the game, esp in comparison to the beloved Civ2. I look forward to hearing more about Civ4.Comment

I updated the opening post with all the latest info. This is both from various screenshots and tidbits (such as the Sid Meier interview, see news) and, most importantly, the PC Zone preview Myrddin reported on. All changes are marked in green, to make them stand out more (because there are so many of them).Comment

Nice updates. I've been avoiding discussion of Civ 4 after Civ 3 failed to live up to its promises. This list of features certainly sounds interesting.
I've always been wary about gimmicks like leaders but recently have come to admit that these games need something to create variety and make each game different. Multiple paths through the tech and leader personalities help. It will be tough to make sure there are several equally viable paths and leader styles, but great if they achieve it.To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; both dispense with the necessity of reflection.

Update 2005-05-01: There are 5 categories of Great People: Artists, Tycoons, Prophets, Engineers.
"We are reducing all the complexity of billions of people over 6000 years into a Civ box. Let me say: That's not only a PkZip effort....it's a real 'picture to Jpeg heavy loss in translation' kind of thing."

Fixed. Thanks for the heads-up!Comment

...it seems like every game of civ stature tends to buy itself a bit of time by releasing in fall to hit the holiday rather than rush release during the summer. Too bad as that is the one time of year I have time to play (or too good as it may end up giving them time to sharpen the product). I think the rumours of a summer release were around for civ 3 as well...but then it was held back til september if memory serves.
Cheers,

Has there been any mention of system requirements for the game? In particular, for the graphics?If I'd known then what I know now, I'd never have done all the stuff that led me to what I know now...
