Excellent news. The game will not only be better, but there'll be less competition when it comes out as well. Right now we are in the glorious end of the drought of good strategy games, and HOMM4, AOW2, Warcraft 3, and other games are all coming out. Competing against Warcraft 3 would have been especially bad. Now there'll be some space, and we'll have a bit more time to master these games before moving on to MOO3.All syllogisms have three parts.
Therefore this is not a syllogism.Comment

Wahaaay!!!!!
I can honestly say i'm now HAPPY when a publisher anounces a DELAY - it might be an almost finished game

Wow... so much more civil here. On the MOO3 homepage threads about half the denizens are screaming vaporware and "hereby officiallly quit drooling on the game." Just goes to show ya what kind of people inhabit the apolyton forums: ones who KNOW.Comment

I dunno... The Civ3 forums here tend to be much less civil then this one. I just think what we have here for the most part is a small group of people somewhat interested in Moo3 but not so rabid about it as to be overly obnoxious/hostile/rude/etc for little to no reason.Originally posted by OctaviusIII

Or else the official forum is just so difficult to navigate and cluttered only utter fanatics - who are surely not happy about getting a game they can't rip to confetti in minutes after installation - need apply. I know I tried to follow it two times, but then I decided life just to short for that.
Here, we've actually expreienced the pain of rush recently, so I'd imagine the tolerance is somewhat higher.

No, the reason the people at the official forum are in a tizzy is there's a lot of stuff hitting some very large fans right now. Including Stormhound being fired (see Storm-B-Gone), Alan no longer being allowed to post to Moo3 forums, and massive impending cuts.

They are doing cost-cuts since game will not be finished in Q2 as planned.
Which means fireing some people, SIMLIFING unfinished stuff, etc...Comment
