  • Played Civ II Under A year? What Settings Are Preferred?

    I can't stop people from voting who shouldn't, but the question is asked of "Newbies".
    What do you say?
    Pick a setting and production level.

    You should have differentiated between
    1x1x
    2x1x
    2x2x
    1x2x (even though I've never seen people that promote these settings)

    The combination of the two is important

    rah
    and no I didn't vote
    and maybe a few more difficulty levels would help too.

      From my experience, 2x2x king is what most of the newer people play. That doesn't mean there aren't alot of excellent players that play those settings also.

      I think alot of it has to do with where you start playing multi-play. If your first experiences are on the zone, you will most likely become a 2x2x kinger, because that is about 75% of the games played out there.

      I agree also with one of your other comments SLOW... Most people in the zone think 2x2x king is faster which is another reason why they play it.

      BTW - I didn't vote.

        I played little over a year now and must say I prefer 2x2x king with 1x1x deity a good second.

        2x1x gives the disadvantage that while you can put city's nearly everywhere, cats only have 1 movement so its way to easy to defend yourself.

        btw I didnt vote either

            a tad difficult since you didn't check the box for a multiple choice poll

            as a newbie i played 2x2x king, getting my start in the zone

            /me tries to resist temptation of screwing with Sloww's poll....

                    And getting explorers by 3450 b.c. is flat out freaking amazing.

                      Getting explorers and finding city and taking, I should say.

                            hmmmm 3 people have voted so far but not any of the posters, very strange indeed.

                              Played only once with friends 1x (I don't remember if it was Deity)...
                              Never played anymore since I personally don't have MP...


                              (Hydey, there is at least 1 newbie voting person now )
                              googol... this is a number!
