Maybe already mentioned.... After balancing your checkbook you honestly think you can help your financial situation by cutting back on your research a little bit. [hate say I did this for one split-second last week]

The clock/year change was a very nice, simple change. I am also liking the fractal maps in particular.

The notes say it is an *option*, so no need to beat your head against that wall... :smile:

Drooling while waiting for the bus ride home so I can play and, hopefully, see the differences...

I chose "...reasonably well..." since it does run for me but with some slowdown. Granted, I'm running it on a Lat. D800 with a GeForce FX Go 5200 32MB video card. My 2ghz Pentium M and 2gb RAM probably are helping quite a bit. I also have all graphics settings set to the lowest they will go...

While you are obviously frustrated, as many of us are, with the delay, don't confuse lack of evidence with lack of existence. Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. An official update (good or bad) on the patch would be nice sooner rather than later. Even if it is...

While I am not exactly pleased with the delay either, there is always the possiblity that they did find the "showstopper" Thamer postulated. Still, even if that is the case, a quick update from our friendly neighborhood Firaxians might help to soothe the growing savage beast of discontent among...

Not sure if this applies for you or not... I get that message sometimes on my laptop when I start. My Dell's CD/DVD drive is modular so it can swap out and allow me to put in, say, a secondary battery. I've found that if make that swap after machine startup and then try to put the DVD drive...

While it might feel like cheating on CIV, who can resist? Sign me up!

I'd have to agree that they do have their benefit. While I only play on the lower levels, I am using the Jags for the first time in my current game. With a quick batch of them from barracks-laden cities, I quickly took out one of two very close neighbors and am now stretching to take out the...

Subscribing to this one too. While Santa has yet to deliver my copy of CIV IV, this happened to be one of the aspects of the game that the trial demo didn't give you time to really see in effect. Good luck, guys! [goes to find Monopoly (TM) top hat in order to digest thread info. properly]

<sorry, double post>

I believe that is correct. No rushing of GREAT wonders at all. This may be from the Realms Beyond crowd's suggestion to remove the luck factor in the building of wonders. It makes tournament played games more comperable and more reliant on skill rather than luck. Will make some people...

I know this has been an issue since CivIII Vanilla came out, but a couple of threads on rep hits got me thinking about it. What about having the advisor tell you what kind of deals you would be breaking if you declared war on another civ? This would be in the same message that comes up...

I second that thanks, Padma. Had the same issue and found that deleting the proper InstallShield folder did the trick. Thanks!
