The one of the most common phenomenon in human history isn't in Civ4? Yes, and I'm talking about migration into cities.

When cities were groing important, the people were attracted to these cities which then became big cities, seeking better life standards. Exactly this doesnt happens in our beloved game. The biggest towns grow proportionally to the food produced in that particular town, regardless if it's commerce/industry is flourishing or not. As soon as a city builds a market place, it has a 20% chance of a getting 1 laborer from another town without one every 3 turns. The more improvements you have, the higher chance you have.

Ithink immigration needs to be added to the game

And different nationalities in cities and such, and you could moniter immigration, and have some illegal immigrants or smthing

That'll be alot of micromangment :mad: . Thank God that We're not on GameFaqs for a whole White vs. Mexican thing would start soon :rolleyes:

Or more simply population could migrate from one city to another automatically due to cultural influances/escaped slaves/unhappiness, instead of losing control over a whole city like in civ3. No micromanagement in that.

Hope its in aslong as there is no micro managment.

Hmmm yes this would indeed be very interesting:)

Maybe this is one of the civics options?

It could be run like MOO3 as a simple micromanagent button. Cities with the button activated would be migrated too automatically (like 5% of the pop from the other cities).

Exactly what I think. I think it should happen also in your own territory, like the smaller cities' citizens can go to bigger cities.

Has anyone seen/played that game Victoria: Empire under the Sun? It is a rather complicated interface and difficult to learn, but it had things like migration and other civics. I got the impression that CIV4 was going to try something like this. If they could take CIV3 and and some of the cool things from Victoria and Call to Power, then I think we would a near perfect game :D
