Don't you think that this would be a much better Civ3 News item than the [fill in the blank] Trivia item masquerading as news?

How does the wonder Longevity fit into the Civ world? Is there going to future wonders as well as future techs?'No room for human error, and really it's thousands of times safer than letting drivers do it.

Great decision, great info, thanks.Originally posted by Soren Johnson Firaxis The population boom from WLTKD does not exist in Civ3. There are now other benefits, such as lower waste and a reduced risk of city conversion.
Wow, this would be a must-have in civ2 but let's see what happens in civ3. And the fact that it is not a Small Wonder gives its owner a biiiiig boost.Originally posted by Soren Johnson Firaxis There is, however, a new Great Wonder (Longevity) which provides a similar pop boom.

Modern, not necessary future wonder, if longevity is meant pushing the life to the century line, not the thousand of years a la SMAC."We are reducing all the complexity of billions of people over 6000 years into a Civ box. Let me say: That's not only a PkZip effort....it's a real 'picture to Jpeg heavy loss in translation' kind of thing."

I thought of that but why not call it the Human Genome Project or Anti-biotics etc. As far as I'm aware there isn't a technology that we have that could be called Longevity. It's the name that I think is unreal rather than the concept.Originally posted by Adm.Naismith

the wonder seem to come late in the game, and what is the point of increasing pop points when your cites are probably around the full size already? Does it have any other function?
Or if it comes earlier the one who would build this wonder would most likely win the game as well since the civ would have much more people than its competitors.Socrates: "Good is That at which all things aim, If one knows what the good is, one will always do what is good."

Human Genome and Penicillin are both used by Activision. I wonder if there is legal stuff to consider. But this is a valid point. We can expect to live for 75-80 years average, as a 100 years ago, this was closer to 50-60. The Romans were lucky to reach 45.Originally posted by SITS

I wonder if this will be THE wonder to get. whoever gets it will have incredible power! unless it's at game's end and all the cities are maxed out anyway...Originally posted by Soren Johnson Firaxis

except that while conquering, you can beat your enemy cities to dust almost, then have them boom after you take them over...Any man can be a Father, but it takes someone special to be a BEAST

Longevity is a ridiculous name for a wonder.
