CTP2 had an excellent national manager which does almost exactly what avpavlov wants (I say almost, because it doesn't allow you to select cities base by geographic location, but by size/age/production whatever...).
Unfortunately Firaxis didn't bother with such innovations (or even copying other games good ideas). They like players to waste their time on menial micormanagment. In fact they seem to believe that players play Civ games FOR the micromanagment.
They also looooooove writing crappy AI's like automation and govoners, rather than giving players PROPER TOOLS for empire managment.
And I'm not just ranting or wishing for things that are impossible to implement because CTP2 has EXACTLY the type of MM-reducing tools I'm talking about.
And I know CTP2 is CRAP but that doesn't mean it's all crap. In terms of micromanagment mangagment it's lightyears ahead of Civ3. Or prehaps Civ3 is just light years behind all the competition.
(If you know anything about travelling at near light speeds then you know that Firaxis must have a bit of a time defecit by travelling slower than the others, this time is all the time players have spent micromanaging hundreds of units while OTHER GAMES have had proper managment for years!)
hi ,
, a long time ago they said that they where working on that , ....
then the Q was asked if for when that is going to be , ...
their answer ; "no comment" , ...
maybe we can see a large improvement with PTW , ...
CTP 1 was also not that perfect , but CTP 2 , ....
Certainly the more "solid" the software is, the quicker it will progress in the long run. It has already progressed considerably with the patches.
hi ,
indeed , that is true , but if they are going to put something in it , like the state planning system , or more micro stuff , they need to look at certain issue's , rather fast , .....
and they do deserve credit for making more patches , and fixing a large amount of stuff
btw , when is the next one going to come out , .... any rumours on that , ...

I play CTP2 and i agreed that micromanagment in CTP2 more comfortable, but game balance and game realism in CIV3 more attractive (IMHO )
Maybe you should try some of the user-created modifications. They really help the game to be amazing.

have a nice day
there shouldn't be any more patches for civ3.
1.29 was refered to as Final.
no more, that's it.
PTW all the way from now on.....
