  • Bad news for RCP fans

    There is bad news for users of the ring city placement scheme: Firaxis bods have confirmed that it has been eliminated in Consquests.


    [Chieftess> [kryszcztov> Will a lot of exploits/bugs/cheats be removed ? Thinking about all that is prohibited at RBCiv for a reference. Ever been there ?
    [Merepatra_BA> I haven't been there but a lot of exploits have been fixed
    [Firaxis-Ed> kryszcztov- Ring build is fixed in Conquest
    [bobT-BA> many exploits have been addressed
    [Merepatra_BA> I think our beta testers called our attention to most exploits during testing
    [bobT-BA> but as we find them others I am sure will hunt for some way of gaining an edge

    [anarres> How is Ring City Placement bug fixed?
    [anarres> we heard RCP was fixed
    [DrA> how is RCP fixed specifically?
    [Merepatra_BA> I can't tell you exactly how the RCP bug is fixed, as I didn't deal with that one. Chieftess might know more than me on that, she was fiddling with it I believe
    [Chieftess> I don't know a lot about that either.
    [anarres> RCP will be fixed by magic. No-one knows but somehow it will be gone...
    [Merepatra_BA> It is gone

      Duh, can someone tell me how RCP works?

      Really, I don't have time to search.

        Good, I didn't like using it, but saw no choice when facing it in PBEM.

          grog want tank...Grog Want Tank... GROG WANT TANK!

          The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.

            Arrian celebrating, because now you can go back to OCP?

              Not OCP, I don't do that much anymore. 4-4.5 tile, not 5.

              But I definitely don't like RCP.

                  Glad to see they're closing off these exploits.

                    aww... I liked rings. I think I'll do rings maybe anyways...

                    It seems much more organized than other CPstrats...

                      Actually I'm glad it's going too, since it isn't the way things were meant to work. I'll have to re-write more of the early game guide though...

                        Yeehaw, that RCP stuff was taking all the fun out of choosing your city locations.

                          Since I never used it (always thought it was an exploit), I won't mis it.

                            I only just started using it, so I suppose I won't miss it too much.

                              RCP fans?

                              This is good news for everyone except those who can't do city placement. RCP made things a lot easier.

                              Whether they can replace it with something that cannot be easily exploited remains to be seen.
