Did they ever fix the random generation of civs bug?

[Son of David]

I.e.: they removed, to all intents and purposes, culturally linked starting locations in Conquests, unless you happen to always play with a civilization in the North American category.

For no good reason.

I still call that a bug.

I seem to recall that plain vanilla Conquests fresh out of the box doesn't have this bug. It only occurs if you apply any patches.

I sat down and installed Civ3GOTY then C3C and at every patch i started a game with all random opponents. I don't have my notes in front of me, but that's what I recall.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
