Just another thank you to the programing team :)

Refreshing to see a (mostly) positive thread for a change. I thought I was spending too much time on TBS games, but Civ3 has has raised my addiction to record levels.

I guess when PTW comes out I'll have to quit my job to have enough play time.

agreed, great game. more enjoyable for me than SMAX and Civ2

No wink needed. They exist, I believe.

I have posted months ago that I am convinced Firaxis has hired flacks and shills to come on these boards to promote this flawed disappointing game. I figured that out in December when fanatical defenders of a severely buggy and (at best) beta game appeared, a game that needed three major patches with even more to come. I still await scenario building, Cheat Mode, MP, and a rational AI.

I never said Firaxis isn't a master at marketing.

well, we needed at least 1 negative to even things out

It IS a good game!! , just a little fine tuning
well done

You're right that we needed at least 1 negative comment, Alva, but does it count when it comes from Coracle?

I'm posting that I think he cannot handle being an employee of an unsuccessful competitor.

Civ3 is definately one of the most addictive games in a long time, a well ahead of Civ2. All in all, I am quite pleased with what I got

[Gangerolf]

big thanks, but i still feel that the game is somewhat unfinished. maybe released too early

[Alex]

Oh, my. Thank you Firaxis. Really.

[dnassman]

I think it is a fantastic game myself. It is the only game I play and have very limited time to play it. Wasted a lot of time on the weekend playing a kick ass Monarch game with my Persian champions. One of the best games I've played so far as the AI actually put up a decent challenge until I crushed them. Love Civ3 even more now.

You're convinced...because you just hate CivIII? GOOD line of thinking there.

I think the dev team should be thanking US. We're buying it.
