Yeah. Play favorites. Name names. Accept résumés.

Prrof for the non-believers that Firaxis is paying attention to all the ideas.

I think this is worth -=*BUMPING*=- to the top, don't you?

Keep up the good work everybody!

A thread like this deserves a -=*BUMP*=-.

Brian Renolds also replied in the borders question raised by Hofblad.The thread is in the previous location for Civ 3 ideas,not in "The List of Ideas for Firaxis" where we currently are.

My guess is Civ3 will have borders, but their extent and effect will vary with your government type and technological progress. Clearly a Bronze Age city state would resolve borders in a different way from a modern nation state, and you'll see an evolution from one to the other in the game.
In SMAC we found that borders not only made the game more fun, they made the AI smarter.

As with Alpha Centauri, you'll probably be able to reduce the effect of borders by editing the rules file, if for some reason (?!?!) you don't like them.

-=*MOVING THREAD UP*=-

By the way, Brian has been on vacation, so I haven't been able to get any feedback from him on the list. However, he IS expecting to read this list by the end of this month (June), so hopefully he'll be back in 'answering e-mail' mode by then.

My hope, of course, is that he can set at least some parameters for us. But Firaxis will most likely keep things wide open until at least the alpha phase, at which point hopefully we can start zeroing in on details with enough time to make crucial changes.

I assume our cheques are in the mail and we will all get a complimentary copy of the new game........

Yet another cheap means of a junior civver attempting to gain civver status...

Actually that was yet another attempt to raise everybody's self-esteem by -=HEAVE=-ing this month-old complement to the top.

Us thread masters are very sensitive, you know
