I like the city view

I look at it whenever I have a cool city

I look at the city view occasionally.

But the problem might have been that there needs to be predetermined spaces for the wonders, and they may not have had the room.

Am I the only person that, from Civ 4, would like to see a nice tourist-map style graphic replacing the current city view.

What I mean is the same kind of top-down block-drawn 2D format you'd get if you bought a foldout tourist map of a city - showing the layout and the major landmarks.

Naturally this would be different for the different ages - scratches on a tablet for ancient, old ink on parchment for medieval and a modern map-type-map for modern - and each city's growth could be represented ( even the ethnicity e.g - some cities having Iroquois ghettos )

It would AKAIK be easier to impliment and at the same time avoid the whole - we-live-in-a-town-with-twelve-houses-three-skyscrapers-the-hanging-gardens -and-the-pyriamids syndrome.

I don't look at the City View anymore, because it is ugly. Make it worthwhile, and I'll look at it again. The best City View was the one from the original Civ, and that was DOS graphic, for christsake! Even founding a city had its own pretty animation.

The immersive aspects of the game, even if not so important like the gameplay, are appreciated by many civers

PS .. and yes, the current Palace is boring as well.

HAHA that's true, remember the cheesy sound effects when you would build something and it'd go to the city view? And the building would sorta "phase" into view?

BTW, where did the Sistine Chapel graphics go? I just captured Niagara Falls since it had the Chapel, but when I looked in the City View it isn't there...
