    New Leader: Adolf Hitler

    I see a lot of talk about Hitler in this thread, but no one seems to have a clue on how to get the leaderhead to work. :dunno:

    England or Britain? Also, where are the Celts?

    Well, consider that in a civ3 expansion Firaxis included Byzantines as a Civ despite the fact both Rome and the Greeks were already included. Talk about overlapping. If Byzantium (with Greece and Rome) can be included, why can't Celts? Someone could also argue that Netherlands is actually...

    England or Britain? Also, where are the Celts?

    The problem with just having England (and not Wales, Scotland, etc.) is that you might offend people in those countries. It is like calling The Netherlands "Holland". Do you see what I mean? Imagine if the Danes got a civ and all other Scandinavian countries were neglected. Don't you think the...

    Religions that are missing and should be included

    Animism Asatru Atheism Bahá'í Faith Jainism Manichaenism Shamanism Shintoism Sikhism Zoroastrianism I'm sure you guys can think of others in addition to these. If Firaxis does not include these we can just add them ourselves, right? :)

    Should Religions have traits?

    As it is now, all religions are the same. All religions in Civ IV have the same religious structures, effects, holy cities, missionaries, etc. which we know is not the actual case in reality. So what I propose is that religions have certain strengths and weaknesses. I know this may offend...

    What are your modding plans for CIV IV?

    Assuming you are going to be modding the game, what are you planning? A WW2 Scenario? A Middle-earth map? Adding a civilization you felt was wrongly left out of the game? What exactly will you do? :) Let's see, some things I would do is first of all eliminate the animals from the game, if...

    Mao and other despicable leaders in Civ 4

    If PC issues are a concern, why then include one of the greatest mass murderers of all time as a leader in the game? Stalin and Hitler are not included, so why Mao?

    Civ 4 Civilizations

    Agreed, the Celts must be included. The Celts saved and spread Christianity and arguably St. Brendan was the first European to discover the new world. And Celts includes quite a large number of countries: Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Gaul, Galatia, Galicia, etc. I think it will piss off alot of...

    wandering wild animals on the map

    I agree with all those who say this is a stupid idea. Civ is on too large of a scale for predatory animals to be of any concern. If this was sim village, then maybe it would make sense, but we are talking about the scale of an entire civilization.

    FDA Panel Rejects Artificial Heart

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/06/24/AR2005062400181.html So now if you are ever in a situation where all other options are exhausted you no longer have the option of trying an artificial heart. I agree the artificial hearts have alot of problems with them now...

    Civilizations for Nintendo DS?

    http://ds.advancedmn.com/article.php?artid=1439 Plus the DS is outselling the PSP in Japan, which is pretty bad considering this was the same week the PSP was launched, you'd think the PSP would at least do better on it's launch than a system that's been out a few weeks. This is another...

    Civilizations for Nintendo DS?

    My point is games don't have to have blood, guts, and sex to appeal to Adults. In fact, personally, I don't much care for GTA or games like that.

    Civilizations for Nintendo DS?

    Well, we'll just have to agree to disagree because I don't think the DS is geared towards children. Anyway, Civ could be considered a kiddie game because it is given an E rating.

    Civilizations for Nintendo DS?

    Metroid is for 10 year olds? Super mario 64 doesn't appeal to adults? Puzzle games and Rpgs are for kids only? I'm an adult and I enjoy all those games and I can tell you I would also play Civ for DS. The DS hardware is also not something built for kids. Stylus touchscreens are not very kid like...

    Civilizations for Nintendo DS?

    The target audience for the DS is anyone, but I think most people who get it would be adolescent males and probably adults too. Certainly not 10 year olds... is this audience really that different than Civ? Alot of people are prejudiced against Nintendo and will say anything they make is for...
