The building I was referring to? No, it's just a graphics glitch.

why are the units sooooo big?!

**DeathByTheSword** · June 16, 2005, 07:01

wow

i was a little bit sceptical about the new graphics of Civ but these screens turned me around they look beautifull...now i am even more eager to just not start college in september and play civ for live...

to bad the roads dont have brigdes over rivers and that some buildings are in the water lets hope they change that before the release...

**Solver** · June 16, 2005, 11:11

I'm pretty sure the buildings in the water is just a bug. The game has still got quite some time in development ahead.

Nice detail work on the terrain buildings.

(Or is it "just" a higher detail setting?)

The city names look custom to me. I did not see any historical ones on the new screenies.

**Solver** · June 16, 2005, 11:55

Yes we'd better hope that these names are custom

Barbarian Civ maybe

**Addled Platypus** · June 16, 2005, 16:15

whats the make on the colored dots on the left side of the flags?

Settlers was red, units in the city white

maybe to do with activity?

EDIT
saw a different screenie where the flag had multiple dots

so maybe the difference will be experience

vet/elite...etc

Did really nobody see the blue flag with the hoplite helmet in the Hills of Slaughter city?

I bet it's whether the unit has MP's remaining. Multiple dots if you have a stack of multiple units.

Civilization IV Q&A - Post-E3 Questions

http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/civilizationiv/preview_6127544.html?q=1&tag=gs_hp_flashtop_read

We came out of the E3 demo impressed, but also brimming with questions. Thankfully, senior producer Barry Caudill was happy to indulge us.

new article (I think maybe), not a great article but new(maybe), I'm somewhat disheartened in that missionaries can't travel more freely but I imagine it has to be that way to properly balance the religion play.

There were different city views for different civs in Civ3, European, middle eastern or far eastern. Also, city views changed as the game advanced to the next era. Does anyone know whether we're going to have different city views in civ4?

**DerSchwarzfalke** · June 17, 2005, 16:22

I do not see why that would change.

No there weren't

No they didn't

EDIT: nm, I thought you were talking about the city interface
