Some regrets & about the video resolution...
First of all, thanks for the great work you do, MarkG !
I've been playing Civ since Civ1 although I never really used scenarios or modifications, and I'm alittle bit disappointed CTP 2 is just a kind of "update" to CTP 1... I would have preferred to wait longer and really have big changes. The only things which seems important to me in CTP 2 as far as I've read are the diplomacy improvement and the territory management (city radius/border lines). I hoped there would be more "non-traditionnal units" (I am one of these rare gamers who try to avoid direct conflict as much as possible
and specific city buildings depending of the land (especially for underworld cities ! So sad space has been abandonned too... yet it's true it was pretty useless in CTP 1, but, hey, that was quite a great idea to improve !)
Anyway, about the video resolution, I recently played CTP 1 on a friend's new PC and I was quite surprised to see one could choose up to 1600*1200 ! Given that this is precisely the maximum Windows resolution my friend has (GeForce 2 MX (32 MB) w/ 19 inches monitor), I guess CTP 1 (and probably CTP 2) can use any resolution your Win configuration can. Am I totally wrong on this subject ? Anyway, I can swear I played CTP 1 in 1600*1200 and that was quite nice
