Redundancy in Civ3

[XOR]

When I queue up 6 or 10 building in a construction queue, I still get the advisor asking me what to build next. I have already manually set the constructions, it should not require confirmation.

When I queue up all the research of the current "era", I still get the advisor asking me what to research next. I have manually set all those already and just the same as the construction queues, should not require confirmation.

Just venting it out because it's annoying me since the days when the advisor would start unit constructions without asking.

Should be in "preferences"...

I find it sometimes useful

never use queues, so I have to abstain from voting
But I agree with you, if you do use them.

Most redundant poll ever??

All I have to say is that if you think Civ3 is redundant, try playing Civ1 or Civ2. Now that is redundancy

I have. I thiought they both were more fun that Civ 3.

If you care so much about it, it should be a preference you could turn off. I personally don't care..

That's probably because you were younger when you played these games...
Often younger people enjoy computergames more than older ones... (not always of course)

Seems to me that Civ2 is more suited to more experienced strategists, while Civ3 is more like a kids game, it feels simple.

I agree on the building queues too, its a minor niggle that seems easily fixed.

Why?? I've played both.. civ2 is not more strategical..

At any particular point in the game you have a hell of a lot more viable options open to you than you do in civ3.

[JtheJackal]

I can say without any doubt, of any kind that Civ3 does NOT have less strategy than Civ2. If anything it has more.

I reconfirm like a mofo and like it. The queues still help since you don't have to search through the drop down menus; and its nice to get a little reminder of what's going on.

OK, you got me... how does Civ3 have less strategy than Civ2?
