      Oh no, not Gamespy arcade again

      Is it still possible to find some MP games through some ingame "browser"?

          Yes, Gamespy is a joke.

          But what else is there?

            So far I've had very little to complain about this time. So far.

              The "ingame browser" is connected to the same GS system as Arcade is, so Arcade specific code problems are avoided, but GS server issues, if any, are not. I can't say I'm a big GS fan either, but I've had little to complain about.

                The reason I hate it is mostly because you have to open a different program to find people to play against (I simply hate that), but as long as there's the same options in the game I don't have anything to complain about

                Not that I'm ever going to use it anyway, since I almost never play MP

                  Give it a fair shake, Adagio, and you'll never go back.

                    That's what I'm scared of, what if my internet connection goes down for several days, then I wont be able to play Civ IV anymore, since I don't want to play SP



                    Plus I kinda suck at Civ (I've managed to lose all 5 PBEM games of Civ3 I've tried)

                        Take a look at the screenshots in Cheiftess's MP Preview, I think you will find that in many cases players can do without Arcade all together now, the CIV MP interface is several levels better than that of C3C.

                            Can I set up a LAN MP game without going through the internet?
