Micro managemnt betwen turns

[Rasputin]

that s what i want, i preffered civ2 in that you could do all your city stuff whilst the AI were moving, you could check out the map and look for areas that needed assistance. But in civ3 we are stuck with the "Please Wait" message for upto 10 minutes and no activity possible.

I not sure if this can be patched out or not, but it needs to be fixed. Especially for MP (If MP ever eventuates!!!)

I think that the AI uses all the Computer power. In MP it would be easier to allow micromanagement, as there is no AI to move.

that's not true.
you could with civ2mpg and only if you played a mp game.

even in SP i could move my map focus around and see what was happening elesewhere

err I don't think you could do anything while waiting for the ai in civ2.

unless you had civ2 gold I suppose. Didn't want to pay money to get my ass kicked on a regular basis . It seems everyone playing multiplayer at the time of release regularly played diety level in civ2- emporer was highest I preferred to play.

And AI turns took much less time in Civ 2 than in Civ 3. I was hoping the patch increased the AI's unit movement time a lot! Hope they provide it for a second patch.
