  • Really Really cool idea

    i know it cant be implemented, but i just wondered what y'all think. The game could be really cool if it were run from your palace. ie. You could walk outside, go back into you palace, walk around in a 3-d environment, and if you really felt like it, you could get to the game, and go into your war room, or, maybe say, your construction projects room, and then, maybe after you check in with your team of advisors all together in the board room, you could head on back with your science advisors to check on your wise men in the north tower. Or, a little later on, you might have to travel across the white house to the oval office to make some desicions on civ-wide rules and government dealings. Of course, you could always cut out these walking sequences, but it would really add a cool aspect to the game to be able to explore your palace as you upgrade it, and learn where this is and that.

      Teach yourself some C++ and try it out. And remember to send me a copy once the game is finished.

        All change is about interface. It is interesting, but only for a short period of time. It adds virtually no gameplay.

        So, lets make Civ3 as a Massive Multiplayer Game!

        Some people will be big leaders, others would be city governors or army units.

          YEAH! And use the unreal engine and blow up the senate if they don't allow you to attack because you're ruling a democracy.

            And you can get your own Monica Lewinsky to play around with in the oval office!

              Monica Lewinsky? If we're going to try for historical accuracy the better choice is Marilyn Monroe...

                  I like the idea, but my fluff (posted earlier) is easier to include

                  Though ofcause I would also like to be able to walk around town in fully 3D

                    Another cool idea is that you actually take control of the soldiers that is fighting and that you can command a squad and fly helicopters with a joystick. Another cool thing would be if you got this 3-d wiew of your civilization and that you could zoom in all the way to a child sleeping in its bed and zoom out all the way to the milkyway since you should also be able to colonize other planets and fight with alien civilizations with your spaceships that you can customize the color of and decide whether it will have 3 phasecannons or 8 pulselasers but everyshipmember should also be allowed to have their own favourite pet with them and you have to feed them but it must be feeded with the right food not so they dont get sick but if they get sick they can die if you havent invenvet petmedicine and there should also be this 3-d hair shop and in that you could customize different hair cuts to use on your people and the afro cut would be the coolest that make msot people happy. That would be cool.

                    So what do you think? Will it be able to get in before the game ships?

                        Your ideas are cool DonJoel, but they just aren't really really cool.

                          I dont think its a good idea to transform the game-interface into a game itself. Cake on top of cake...

                          but it would really add a cool aspect to the game to be able to explore your palace as you upgrade it,

                            Why?... so that we'll have to spend a monthly fee to play the game?
