Drawing Lines on the Map!!!

[MarkG]

this also deserves it's own thread

apparently you can draw lines on the map

[Locutus]

Gee, why didn't anyone think of telling us this before?

[alva]

Let's hope this is easy accesable and not hidden somewhere.

I had no mouth and I had to scream

How can we be sure that it's a game feature and not someone from 3Dgames messing with Paint ?

[MattPilot]

Maybe... but take a look at the units & the city. The lines are underneath both.

we should certainly congratulate the man for drawing the lines with the correct perspective

The mention it in this article:

http://www.shacknews.com/docs/press/100605_civ4_11.x

"Team games are now easily set up, and teams have new ways to communicate with each other, from annotating each other's screens (you can literally draw lines to tell people where to go – think of strategizing in football) to sending little pings to alert teammates of important events happening around their map"

[MarkG]

true but we never saw it in a screen

[alva]

Wait? So this is MP only???

A 3D electronic coloring book for $50?



Cool!

I'm sure this is great and all, but I can't see the use of it? At least not in SP.

[Solver]

Hmm, what would be the use of the in SP anyway?

[GeoModder]

To taunt the AI?

[MrFun]

I am excited about nearly everything with Civ 4 from what we know already.




But as for this crayola feature . . . . . .
