Do You buy CIV3 in expectance of a MultiPlayer-patch ?
SEE POLL ELSEWHERE : Multi-civs and 16 Players ???

[yin26]

Given the MP situation and few other things, I am waiting to buy the game until a 'complete' package is available.

[Sean]

I am not a big multiplayer fan, so I will/do not buy the game in anticapation of a multiplayer patch. It is not a major issue for me.

[Dinner]

I'm not going to buy the game until an MP version comes out.

[ColdWizard]

i'm not getting civ3 until MP is included

[Rakki]

I'm getting it just because it's Civ 3. The actual internal gubbinz don't worry me that much

[Skanky Burns]

Im getting Civ 3 for single player - i dont play MP too much. If the patch is free, ill try Civ 3 MP, otherwise i wont

[Executor]

MP isn't very important for me.

[Typo]

MP isn't an issue for me either but me laughs at all these people saying they won't buy Civ3 until MP is included. As soon as MP is available they are gonna get there asses kicked by people who have been playing SP for months

[dainbramaged13]

Right on, typo!

i think if thyere doing it for the principle of not having the complete game, ala yin, i respect that, but its really not goign to make one bit of difference. It is a moot point. As for those who complet++++dismiss the possibility of having fun with the AI, theyre just stupid.

I think the three that posted are three of about a hundred people in the world that will not buy the game because of mP. Firaxis has nothing to worry about.

Err....A mediocre mp player who has lots of experience playing with other people will beat a good sp player whos never played mp before. Trust me, its a totally different game. Sh1t you can get away with against the computer won't work against a real person.

When I first started playing MP, i thought I was going to walk on people. I was maxing out everything against the AI. Crushing them under my boot. Well I got humbled REAL FAST when I started playing against mp players who were experienced.

The people that will have an edge in mp are the people who are veterans of mp in civ2. Someone whos never played mp, will not.

Make that 4

personally, i play for fun and don't worry about whether or not my ass is going to be kicked (otherwise i would never bother playing rah, war4, bird and the others of that group)

in civ2 i learned more during my first month of MP play than i had in all of the time i played sp (about 2 years). i don't think civ3 will be much different in this particular case.

[cyril25376]

I will buy the game because of the other features included (Culture, trade ..). But I hope there will be a mutiplayer patch

[Rakki]

well if I'm playing Civ 3 SP you'll never beat me !

(giggles)

I'm going buy Civ3 the moment the game comes out. If there is a free multiplayer patch i'll probably download it and try it out. If you have to pay for a "gold" version i probably take a pass(never bought any of the so called expasion pack for civ, civ2, and smac).
And if the game sucks then i probably will be more careful buying the next Sid game(like those bastard who made ctp1, ctp1.1, you may have fooled me with ctp but not getting my money for that patch disguised a sequel).
