I agree that the interface of Civ3 was horrible, but it was still better than Civ2

A Windowed mode would take care of the artifacts you get when you "Alt-Tab" during a game. This results from the fact that most games run nowhere near the resolution of my monitor and therefore they shift the resolution while they are running.Typos are the result of big fingers coupled with small keyboards.Comment

I didn't play that much CTP, but why are sea colonies that bad?Comment

They're just boring and in the end kinda eliminates the "point of water" meaning that you can have cities everywhere on the planet
I don't like to have cities all over the place, that's just ugly and gives you too many cities to take care of and too many cities that needs to be conquered
If you want to play a map where water doesn't make much difference in the game just play a map where there's little water at allThis space is empty... or is it?Comment

Underwater cities?
One of the most daft idea's ever: Civ is meant to represent the real world, not a sci-fi one.

I don't think it would even be feasible with a 3D engine. Fullscreen mode allows for faster rendering and with a 3D engine a windowed mode would probably be far too slow. In light of Civ3, the last thing Civ4 needs to be is any slower.Originally posted by Nikolai
A window mode would be great, but I doubt it'll happen...
EDIT: Although I do prefer windowed mode when practical.However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true?

I want to see my civ in the greatest detail possible....that will mean full screen. I never ran Civ2 in a windowed mode. If I really need to get to some other information, I'll ALT-TAB... better yet, fire up the laptop for those other tasks.Haven't been here for ages....Comment

Looks like there is a lot of information about civ 4 coming out. Wishes to be fullfilled? If they were fishes, there's a trout or two worth fryin up maybe...Ants. An MGE scenario

This way people like you could swicht it off and play the standard game which ends within the very near future,
whereas people like myself could switch it on and play a game which also includes the far future, just like CtP1 and 2 did.
As there are enough players of both styles of play, the people who prefer a history extending into the future as well as people wishing to end their game with todays technologies, this would be a great way to keep all of them satisfied

I - for one enjoy - water. I play on both Civ 2 and 3 Archipelago maps with 70% water on the Largest map possible. That means clusters of continents seperated by a lot of water.
By the way, I hope Naval warfare is handled by the AI a little better. It pleases me to know that Civ 4 will not allow the AI to know where everything on the map is.
It was darned annoying sending out a privateer; and suddenly, all these enemy ships home in on it.Comment

probably the best wish that can be made for Civ4. Simple, but yet, so important.

Given that the thread is the greatest wish I think Paddy is aiming rather low.
