Firaxis: When do you think we'll start to see some screen shots? Or Concept Art?

[connorkimbro]

Hmm? I know i don't speak for just myself when i say "we want something to look at, and drool over "

Us guys, we're visually oriented. And some of the girls are too

So how about it, when can we expect any game graphics, or at least concept art?

[UltraSonix]

Does screenshots really matter? What I want to see is how Firaxis is implementing the trade/spy model etc.

------------------
No, in Australia we don't live with kangaroos and koalas in our backyards...

[connorkimbro]

Do screenshots really matter?

Umm, yes.

They're not the only thing that matters though, of course, but they are one of the things that matters. They are the thing I wanted to start a topic about.

[Empress]

Oh yes! I would like to see a screen shot too! Just to know if the graphics are going to be like SMAC, TOT, or CTP... or something totally innovative!

[FinnishGuy]

Yes, screenshots would be welcome indeed. They'd also be an indication that something is being done...

[Imran Siddiqui]

Since it is being released in 2002, I wouldn't expect to see screenshots until next year... at earliest.

[FinnishGuy]

True true, Imran.

Is this a fact, or

[FinnishGuy]

Firaxis hasn't announced a release date yet, Jeje2. Imran was possibly quoting my "educated guess" from another thread.

Although I understand some game magazines are also suggesting that Civ 3 would be a 2002 game...

[Imran Siddiqui]

Yeah, that is the concensous pick, after Brian left and all. Definetly NOT in 2001.. that is for sure!

[Stefu]

I don't care if it's done with stick figures and crayons as long as we get some proof that this game will be what our dreams are made of.

Imran:
THX

You just sounded so sure in the other message, that I was afraid of missing some important information somewere.

Yup, 2001 is quite early given the situation.

[Deathwalker]

Will Fraxis be at ECTS, if so we might see something

------------------
I have walked since the dawn of time and were ever I walk, death is sure to follow

[UltraSonix]

Hah! ECTS! Apparently all the major publishers pulled out - activision, lucasarts, microsoft, etc.
