  • Do you think Alt+Tab is good enough?

    This image shows an Alt-Tab window. Do you think you can handle it, or will you never leave the game until you close it?

    i imagine that would make it difficult for using icq if playing a tribe game, but since there's no MP yet that point can be addressed later. Alt-tab should suffice for those playing SP

      But you know that they might (most likely will) release MP later. The only thing that scares me right now is if SidGolf gets MP from start

        if Sidgolf gets MP then i swear on my life i am rioting. multiplayer. sidilization III needs multiplayer. multiplayer. in my opinion sidgolf should be scrapped, and civ 3 finished. multiplayer.

        multiplayer.

          but back on topic, i guess ALT+TAB could work ok. multiplayer. i play other games like that. multiplayer. for example, CS or Starcraft. multiplayer. a turn based game, single player :COUGH COUGH:, should work fine fullscreen. multiplayer. it also serves to minimize the worlds influence on you during the game. multiplayer. like AIM/ICQ/HUMAN INTERACTION. multiplayer.

          multiplayer.

            Where is the Thank God option in this poll. All windows programs, games especially, should support Alt-Tab for those vital moments when the boss walks in. Why else put up with widows at all.

              I knew I should have made another option.

                  Most everybody should know my position from a recent thread of mine "What the Hell". For those of you who don't, I can handle it but I'm very dissapointed. Actually I don't know if I can handle it because it was very annoying in EU when my music constantly screwed up on my PC. But I would imagine Civ3 will be less frustrating.
                  However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true? On the other hand, is it really so difficult simply to accept everything that one has been brought up on and that has gradually struck deep roots – what is considered truth in the circle of moreover, really comforts and elevates man? Is that more difficult than to strike new paths, fighting the habitual, experiencing the insecurity of independence and the frequent wavering of one’s feelings and even one’s conscience, proceeding often without any consolation, but ever with the eternal goal of the true, the beautiful, and the good? - F.N.

                      I think that is exactly how I feel. I maybe will use it a bit more to post here, but nothing else.

                              In CTP2 & CTP it was painfull to do ALT-TAB in the mid-game.
                              It's requirement were 266hmz 32 MB RAM.

                              Since CIV3 has similar minimal requirements and my
                              comp. is 333Mhz with 64 MB RAM, I think it whould be better for me to:
                              -Add additilonal 128 MB of RAM.
