What exactly is wrong with Civ 3??

They do for me too. So the ICBMs must be the earlier, less accurate, versions; city-busters, not silo-busters. So the retaliatory force is intact. MAD RULES!

as a big civ2 fan (hundreds of hours and still played it till few months ago from time to time) i find Civ3 a big disappointment.

It's not that the game it's not good (well at times its really frustrating) but I expected a lot more.

And one thing that really disappointed me is the whole 'feel' of the game... in civ 2 the emphasis on wonders and discoveries was really big, with really really cool multimedia files, sound effects (I really liked to hear the crowd screaming and clapping) and a true great feeling thorughout the game...
The structure of civ3 seems 'back to the game' with the cut of all unnecessary things.

I dont like this...to me it was slightly more than a strategy game
