Some people with GI disorders or recent recovery from pica might take all the poo talk as offensive.

I'll stick with a beer.

I was sharing in a dry wit sort of way

it is very funny to me

When some humor comes up.. and it isnt within the scope of what certtain people find funny then it is reminded this is a place to discuss CIV

my point and Im a big boy, i dont give a flip if you talkkabout whatever is its ok to talk about drinking and that aint no closer to CIV than Southpark and no one, no not one said Hey, could you stop talking about hanging out at a bar when this is supposed to be about civ discussions

That was what I was talking about

This is second time humor has been halted here because it is a CIV Discussion not humor thread

my point so you wont be lost? Lets either have it strictly civ related of not


But then again I was laughing so hard when I walked in I missed the soap box to wit a decree was sent forth...

But if its a pub I can have a Glenfiddich and talk CIV at the same time right?

believe it or not most of my posts are CIV related. Its just very subtle

[Daddy-O]

I have no idea what this man said but I am all for that beer part.

Hey - really - what's up with that 3D civ4 world but you still can't cross the poles? What's up wi *hic* with that?

[Daddy-O]

and who's this Glen every *hic* one is talking abou?

[Grandpa Troll]

I hear tell CIV IV come out 24th of October or thereabouts?

My sweetie tells me Im green on buying it

I got Hidden and Dangerous 2 coming from EBAY now as well as next week Ages of Empire III and Call of Duty 2

I look forward to this game

Ok

I have cleaned up my act, my posts with inappropriate offensive pictures and explained my views on double standards..or the pc term would be perspective? so

I hope we win at the Horde game

I look foreward to the succession game

and I look forward to brave tales from braves soldiers

eat hardy and drink up folks

Gramps is having some fun

[Daddy-O]

OK. CIVIV talk.

I'm not as familiar with all the details as are most of you. However, I read a review and saw screenies a few months back.

My first impression is that the 3D graphics are ugly and confusing. I really like the look of CIVIII, particularly with the mods that people made. It just makes me WANT to play, looking at the screen.

For the rest of it, it sounds pretty confusing and I'll need to time sit down and figure out what is going on. I sort of wonder whether it won't be inaccesible for CIV newbs. For folks who have grown along with CIV it may not be too complicated because we have something to build on.

Also, I wonder about MP off the top. Will it be in the game from the start? Even if it is, will it work? IIRC, PtW was screwed up for awhile.

I also have firmly etched in my memory the awful posts that spammed here that first year of CIVIII with people talking about how Firaxis had screwed them and that the game was horrible, etc. etc. I wonder if that will happen again? V1.22 of C3C is a very different game from original CIVIII.

There, no liquor talk, no GB stories. Solid CIV talk.

I am sure negativisms shall arise Golden bear

But I will purchase it when it comes out as Sid has sold me on the series

Im a newbie too and get spanked but have most probably more fun than anyone here..teling stories and ....and... attaching images to help convey a thought or two

According to the reviews this is supposed to be one of the most inclusive civ game ever because of AI improvements.

Moddablityis supposed to be great.

MP players from CIV III were on the development team, and Im talking some of the best players out there. They took there MP concerns with them and Firaxis took them very seriously.

I have seen waaaaaaaay to many bugs related to CIV III in MP over the past three years to stay loyal to that game if half of what they have been saying about MP in CIV IV is true. It was designed from the beginning as a MP game. Not like CIV III which was an add on to an old code that was tweaked from SMAC

Whew, after that speech another Glenfiddich please

I agree and have hopes it will all work out to the best

I have to remember when ever I play a game..its not what the other game was and will be a change thats why I purchased it to be different and hope different =to better

[Golden Bear]

Good points. I hope that you guys will all work real hard at learning it and post all the strategies more quickly this time. It took a couple years to get it all out for CIVIII - you guys need to work faster this time. Don't force me to think for yourself or you'll be sorry!

[conmcb25]

With your gift of prose you should get the game and compose some of your own strategies
