Make Your Voices Heard!!! My Letter To Firaxis
I just heard that Civ3 will be released without multiplayer. I am VERY UPSET. You promised revolutionary multiplayer features in this game. Was that revolution the fact that this game won't have any features!?
Many people are upset over this, don't you dare try to sell us a half finished game, and then make us pay again for the other half. You did it with civ2, but things have changed now. When you anger the fans now they have other means of getting the game.
If you are honestly trying to stick us twice for a game that should be complete when you first sell it we will just not buy it and download it online. I haven't bought a game in quite a while, but I thought for Civ3 it'd be worth it. Now i'm changing my mind.
Your great games created some great fans- don't piss them off.Captain of Team Apolyton - ISDG 2012

And tha tis such a shame Chris... I had so looked forward to palying civ 3 based on the fact it would have MP as an integral part of the action, not allwoing the "Loopholes" as civ2 does, so many things you can do legally in Civ2 are only there because it makes little or no differene in SP but in MP cna make major impact.
I still am hanging out that this is simply a bad rumour, but alas very little is supporting that faith right now ....

They did this before...
Well Ras, if you remember, they did the same thing with civ-2, no MP at first.
This is probaly the same deal.
They will wait untill the sales drop after the holidays, and then return with the "new" civ-3 MP game.
Just another rip off.I believe Saddam because his position is backed up by logic and reason...David Floyd

Re: They did this before...
Well at least this information has shunted a lot of MPers into action, we have been too busy playing Civ2 to peruse the Civ3 threads as often as we should have ,and this could have quietly slipped past unawares...... The SP people understandably are not going to join our rebellion, and even alot of MPers wont, but we must stick together and not BUY Civ 3 witohut a guarantee that the MP patch is FREE !!!!!Originally posted by Chris 62

Civ2 MP is fun enough to stick on it until Civ3 MP comes out.
I certainly won't buy Civ3 w/o MP included. What's the point of playing AI anyway? Once you try MP,you don't play SP anymore.
Maybe I got myself a pirate copy so I won't be completely newbie once when full game finally hit the shelves.
This is great dissapointment. MP is a real game,SP is just a tutorial.My life, my rulesComment

Revolution!!!!!
Don't settle for this crap!!!
Fight back!!
We need to organize a campaign against this SP-MP split. Let Firaxis know loud and clear that we all are pissed off and are prepared to walk away with our money if they don't listen to our angry pleas!
Encourage everyone you know who is as pissed off about this as us to write Firaxis and tell them what you think about this.
I have experience with activism and politics. They'll listen if we are loud and persuasive enough. Money talks. Tell them they better listen or your money will walk away.

I'm not surprised.The more I learn about it, the less it looked like a good MP game.If you think turns are slow in Civ2 mp......there was no way it was going to be quicker,thats for sure.In order to iron evrything out for mp(if possible)would take another year or more....Christmas is coming...can't miss that..
I'll still buy it if it is good.I bought civ2 with no mp option and wasn't disappointed.The only thing that matters to me in a MP game is getting a good ally.Nothing else is as important.......Xin YuComment

ya right. Civ2 had multiplayer in it they just commented it in the first release. Then a year later they uncommented the code, fixed some graphics and then released it. They just want to milk the marketJoin the army, travel to foreign countries, meet exotic people -

Well I'm honored by my nomination, but I have quite too much stuff to do with the Youth Rights movement to truly lead an anti-Firaxis movement at the moment, hehe.
I did however pull up a few ways to ease everyone in contacting Firaxis and giving them a piece of your mind. Send lots of e-mails, and persuade all your friends who feel the same about Multiplayer to write lots of e-mails. Tell Firaxis that we are pissed, tell them we won't buy two half-games. Tell them we want MP integrated into the game and sold upfront with the rest of it.

Now! MPers, let your fingers do the talking. Give Firaxis a piece of your mind.Last edited by OzzyKP; September 8, 2001, 22:43.Captain of Team Apolyton - ISDG 2012
