I hate it when the damn plazma display discharges.

Bring back that Russian chick that was in the advisor panel from Civ 2.

Anybody got a picture? I need a... refresher.

[lazy troll] Who cares? It still won't be better than Civ II. [/lazy troll]

I want the old Civ1 graphis back again

Who would civilized a planet without ocean waves?

I've been playing the Civ VIII Beta and my recommendations...

The game must be waterproof for those future cities under water. And it must be heat resistant for the city that isn't.

Communism needs to be improved. It sounds good in the manual, but it doesn't even work.

Each turn shouldn't take a lifetime. I was thinking 3 generations to finish a full game - at MOST.

There seems to be programming loop with the Senate. The same pop up windows on the same trivial stuff keep coming up.

The culture flip announcement needs to be changed to something other than "I'm Lovin' It!"

My Finance and Economic Advisors' bribes are making me extremely rich very fast. Is that normal?

Maybe I'm playing it wrong, but my Military Advisor keeps giving me faulty or clearly misleading information. What good is that?

Everytime I attack someone that is evil other civilizations get upset. WHY?

United Nations is still useless.

The AI needs to be improved... no leaders starting wars they clearly cannot win. Some of the AI Civs cannot seem to progress out of Monarchy.

There doesn't seem to be any way to reduce corruption other than going to Anarchy.

The governor in one of my cities is a robot from the future, but he's stupid. He also mentions he admires Germany???

Here, here! The rate of corruption as a function of distance from the capital is way too steep. Perhaps it can be flattened out as communication advances are discovered.

I think there should be more "less PC" resources... slaves, women, african diamonds, sweet labor, drugs, etc.

[Lancer]

Japher, isn't "sweet labor" covered by your "african slave women" option?

[Lancer]

Maybe that was a misread.

[Japher]

sweat labor?



that could also be covered by african slave women...

Me thinks Pyrodrew was opting for revolution from our current government. Same with the 'robot from the future' jibe.

[Lancer]

Japher, I'd be willing to give it a go.
