  • Elvis unit

    I was trying to add a new wonder and wanted to play a mass regicide game. My King Caesars all look like Elvis. I've backtracked as much as I can and cant seem to get rid of Elvis. Even my old games are now Elvis. Is there a common cause to this that I'm just missing?

    Thanks.

    You got something against Elvis?
    It's got something to do with date, E's birthday or something.
    I've allways wanted to play "Russ Meyer's Civilization"

          That's too funny! I wish Firaxis had done more with this...

                I thought you meant an actual unit that ate burgers (increasing pop and happiness) and then died on the john (decreasing happiness), useful.

                  How about some other alternative king unit easter eggs? Here's a few I'd like to see:

                  1. Ronald Reagan
                  2. Michael Jordan (complete with dribbling basketball)
                  3. Babe Ruth
                  4. Marilyn Monroe

                      Yes, I'm sure they sat down and said "let's allocate resources away from game development and into more elvis units."

                      The amount of time that took to make was negligible.

                        If only the game played "Surrender".

                        Or maybe "All shook up" when a SoD appears.

                          i thought i read once that a new unit took them a month to do. I also would rather have had a useful unit. As a professional programmer, I find easter eggs rather unprofessional. For a game with so many glaring defeciencies, any time wasted was too much.

                            That's just the point. In what way was it wasted time? The programmers are people too, y'know. I find it incredible that one unit would take them a month... that's just ridiculous.

                            Is this in PTW only or Civ3 too?
