MGE or FW?!

[greeny]

I just had a thought, save games arn't compatable with versions of Civ other than those they were created on, so we must choose which version we will play on.

I have both so I'm OK but some people won't.
I suggest we use MGE as FW can be upgraded if nessicary via Cedic's patch:

Edit: links removed, you can find it at Civfanatics downloads (can I say that?!)

[H Tower]

definitely MGE

[Six Thousand Year Old Man]

I have both... either is fine. Is there any difference in play (I know MGE is harder than 2.42, for instance)?

[Henrik]

MGE, anyone who doesnt have it can easily upgrade to it...

EDIT: just noticed you noted the existance of patches yourself in your first post

[our_man]

I voted FW; MGE has that bug with objectivex3 cities which will make getting an accurate score difficult.

[Henrik]

It's not like anyone looks at the score anyway
Besides as a mac user I can only participate if we use MGE, FW doesnt exist for macs. Not a major issue for most people I suppose but I'd really like to play

[MRT144]

there is no score in war, only losers

[Shaka Naldur]

MGE, i can't believe that there is still people using just FW

[klesh]

Have both, prefer MGE for the various reasons above.

-FMK.

[our_man]

Sorry Henrik, I didn't realize that! In that case I change my vote to MGE (not that it looks like its going to be needed ).

[Ben Kenobi]

MGE

BTW-
Greeny, you should edit your post to remove cedric's link, before Ming does. 'Poly does not endorse that patch.

[Vlad Antlerkov]

MGE, as I don't have FW. (Actually, I do, but I don't have it installed. Somehow, I lost my 2.42 CD...)

[CivGeneral]

I chose MGE. Even though I dont have it. I will patch it for this game .

[Pevonian]

Same here, I know of the update, I don't think Civ2's even installed on *this* PC though... A shame upon me

[curtsibling]

Looks descisive!

We use MGE!
