Civ 3 blow to massively multiplayer games!

[Rasputin]

but for those people who now have better conenctions and these are expanding all the time (CABLE & Such) dropouts wont be as big a problem... Also if you dont like Big Multi game sdont play them , but many times i have wante dto join the aussie bunch in a game but no slots left, so more civs are needed...

That is because Horse doesn't put enough civs in usually 5, if he put 7 in there would be plenty of civs for you Raz

Then again perhaps he does it on purpose

I think that Civ3 should expand to include 10 civilizations at a time. Even in Multiplaying situations.

I don't understand the argument that seven is too much anyway. If that is the issue don't play with 10 people, don't play with 7 people. Nobody is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to play with the optimum amount of people in a game.

Hopefully this is not true, or this is not the final decision. I was really hoping more than 7 would be allowed to play at once. MP or Sp.

We'll have to wait and see.

10 civs would make for short sessions..... can you imagine the first millenium with 10 civs.....

options are nice but think of how hard it would be to continue with 10 people...... things come up ....... life changes...... adding more variables to this spells mp disaster in my eyes....


I like the idea of alot of civs in sp mode...... but in mp i think 7 is enough especially late in the game when turns take a long time as it is
