Should I Buy CTP-2 ??

[MrLeN]

Keep in mind that Activision (through legalities) have been forced to drop the name "Civilization". The game is a mockery. Do not buy the game. Stick with Sid Meiers Civ II. Activision have tried to get in on action that is out of their league. The game has bugs. Activision have stated that they don't care. Just stick with Civ II and wait for Civ III. Look at this game as a non event.

MrLeN, I do believe you hit the nail on thr head!

As an alternative to waiting for Civ III which won't be out for another year (?), Europa Universalis is released in the US/UK in about a month.
Now there's a company (Paradox Entertainment) who knows about game support! The game has been out for three months in Sweden and Germany only and already seven patches has been made. Sure, the game was buggy from the start, so there was a genuine need for it, but unlike Activision, they responded to the complaints on their forums and not only that; they have also improved the AI a lot in some of the patches in response to suggestions on their forums.
