What do you think the best feature of Civ 4, which we know is in, will be for you?

Do you like the pretty graphics? Or perhaps the slick new tech tree, or maybe it's the return of wonder movies?

For me, it's all about the atmosphere with Civ games, so I have to say my favourite known feature will be the pretty graphics and the return of the wonder movies.

I hope the soundtrack is epic in nature as well, or I'll just have to put the "Last of the Mohicans" soundtrack on in the background....

The gameplay fix of «expansion is the only way to go» problem that bugged me ever since Civ1. I really am looking forward a cpu not aiming to colonize every single freaking desertic tile on the map. it was also, for the multiplayer human games, the only option that lead to a win.

Then, there is also the religion system I can't wait to try.

Expanded mod abilities for the people of great talent here who will extend the life of this game for years.

Python and the prospect for less colony rushes.

How can anyone call the new graphics the best new feature in Civ4

For me it's a bit of everything, but specially the government system, and the religion seems to be a good feature, but let's wait and see how great it is in action

For me the new government system (adopted and improved from SMAC) is a HUGE draw. I am looking forward to the (hopefully) endless possibilities in government and politics. The AI and religious aspects are the other big drags for me.

new government system, less boring micromanagement (I hope) and the possibility to see a video of yin eating his Civ4 box.

The new zoom capabilities, the end of ICS (I hope)... New tech tree, Wonder movies...

Almost forgot, I like those pretty graphics.

Nice thread!

i look forward to playing the game, and letting my imagination run wild as to all the minor details that could be motivating certain actions of the game, and then bitterly *****ing at my AI oponents for backstabbing me, and holding real grudges, and then *****ing to my non-playing civ friends about it to confused them as to my sanity

Civ is the spark to my imagination.

Man, I love it!

Let's face it: most of us, Apolytoners, are considered insane people at some degree by family, girlfriends, wives, friends and so on...

You have no idea how much!

[Mace]

Yes, I too wait for the vid of Yin eating the Civ4 box.

I like the civics...and the goal of less micromanagement...and the goal of moddability...

I like the fact itself that there will be a TBS CivIV, and there are many people who wants the game. This gives hope that PC gaming and TBS games did not lost the case to consoles.

I'm looking forward to the great new government system. Also I love the addition of religion .
