Yeah, I agree to all of you.
MP playing is an important thing in these games in the age of internet! Who wanna play vs the AI?
And the CTP2 MP is poor, totally buggy, unbalanced and just takes too long.
Activision didnt get it to program the new civborders and a useable chatfunction! So what did they do all the time?
And I bought this sucking game, what can only be an ADDON!

Now I can only believe in SID, he will make it and show the world how a game must be.

Boby you put your faith in Sid .....so do i but i worry because of what i saw in Civ2 TOT. TOT was a HUGE FAILuRE. UTTERLY PATHETIC GAME. I surely hope it was a simple counter attack bye microprose against activision to let them know who there competiters were. But i hope Sid puts way more work into Civ3.....Firaxis will aid him no doubt,Sid coudnt have picked a better company to work for in my opinion. Go play Sid Miers Gettysburg to see what i mean


AKA - Saddam Hussien From CTP and CTP2

"shouts out to patten" its been 2 years since i seen you in CTP. We used to Play with Josep Broz Tito alot.Man was he good owell enough with memorys ....On to the future !

Well, I have to say, sadly, I am but DEEPLY Dissapointed in CTP:2..~sigh~

I can't tell you how many nights, weekends, and months I spent playing and DEFENDING CTP:1..but alas..I am but saddened and DISSAPOINTED with CTP:2..and am looking forward to CIV3..

This CTP:2 gameplay is a joke...lots of crashes..

I have taken off my Hat, bowed down in humblesness..accepted the fate that this game is more of an addon/upgrade of sorts...not really worthy of a new game title....


DONT even get me started on what i think of Microprose/Hasbro..they dont think too much of problem resolution...

I am dissapointed in Activision and I really believe they just wanted to get out "A PRODUCT" instead of a "COMPETENT PRODUCT"

A.K.A. DrDanger..Patton..Red October...from CTP:1 & CTP:2 MP games...

Actually my biggest problem with AOL is "system timer dilema" This makes so where if AOL is minimized/Idol, The service boots me after 20 minutes. When i play CTP2 im away from it for hours ! and it boots me constantly......Ive left chat rooms open , Reeresh pages , And still.......No damn Success. This is Ridiculous, It comes at the worst time eg: when im about to switch to monarchy or Wonder almost built. Or even worse just today I was outside the walls of baalbek with 9 knights and guess what ...i got disconnected and the AI split the knights and sent them to the 4 corners of the earth that pisses me off ! Isp does that so we consumers must dial up more so we gotta pay more $$$$$$

If it were up to me ide feed Steve Case and Bill gates to the lions.
