    Thank You Firaxis!

    I just wanted to thank the nice folks at Firaxis for the new patch. While I don't believe it will imporve the game much, it will give us new material to complain about. So the Civ3 whining is not over and it never will be until we have Civ 4 to whine about.

        WTF was he talking about?!? The germans never bombed Pearl Harbor, the Japs did. My what an ass.

        Open mouth, insert foot.

        And second, what's the attitude about? You didn't even see the patch yet and you whine? And your looking forward to more whinning? Man what an exciting life you have.

          Watch the movie "Animal House". You'll get the "Germans" joke.

          Second, you're right. This is either complaining to complain or another joke. I hope it's the later.
          Sorry....nothing to say!

            Danimal is correct : having seen the whiners for the past 6 months, it's obvious they'll whine as soon as they get the new patch, whatever it contains.
            Danimal doesn't whine (at least for now), he just warns us of the imminent whining, which will sadly liven up the Forum.
            I'd say "any new material coming from Firaxis will provoke whining on 'Poly" is a statement as sure as "drop an object, and it will fall".

                  If you spend $50 on a game which doesn't have MP and you are mad because it doesn't have MP, who has the problem?

                    Man, please dont tell me it's about the money. If it's just for 50 bucks, swallow it and live on. But if it's for the principal of the thing, I mean selling an unfinished game, whatever the price, then now you have a good reason to be pissed.

                      ah, but they released the game without multiplayer BECAUSE of the money. they also released it and hurried several patches and sttill have a quasi-buggy game. all because of money / pressure. money money money.

                      the pinnacle of capitialism indeed. shotty work at inflated prices.

                        Amen to that. I even waited until after the v1.16 release and I was still getting a beta. Though I do agree it's not about the money, its about the principle.

                        My anger at Firaxis doesn't stop me from playing though. If I was that kind of person, my anger at the U.S. gov't would have long ago forced me to move out.

                            Jeez. You may be right. But let's be a LITTLE optimistic. Hope springs eternal.

                            I've always said the game was released six months too early. Patch 1.26 or so should get it right. Maybe.

                              I think you were being a little optimistic on the 6 months. Lets call it an even year too early and expect the expansion, due this year just before Christmas, to be in the form of a playable game, with MP.

                              And, yes you will pay.........
