Dell Optiplex GX270 -2.8Ghz Pentium 4 (HT turned off.) -1.5GB system RAM -120GB SATA hard drive -Original SB Audigy -AGP GeForce 6800 GT 256MB -Windows XP w/ SP2 No problems at all *knock on wood* playing at 1920 x 1200. Of course I reimaged my computer from scratch last week and updated to...

Seems fine to me. I've been playing with it for 3 hours now. No problems. :mischief:

I've been playing quarter games the last few hours (e.g. Start a game and only go to a few hundred AD then start over.) to play around with different strategies. I'm thinking that in the long run my new strategy is going to be creating a 3 or 4 cities at varying distances from the capital and...

Got it about an hour ago....playing the training session now. The only problem on install that I had was with DirectX. Fortunately I know enough to trust what comes with the game so I installed DX that came with the game before panicking and all is well. I foresee many a support call to...

Works flawless on 1920 x 1200 on my Dell Widescreen.

what type of GeForce do you have? I have a 6800 GT with 256MB which is practically top of the line. If that can't handle CivIV...:eek:

Sounds like an Alienware Rig....Yummy.

You get what you pay for. (Something some people just don't get.) Just make sure you can upgrade the CPU/RAM/GPU and have at least 2 free PCI-E slots and I'd drop that kind of cash.

Yah..its going to hurt....SO GOOD. :D

First stop: EBgames where I have the preorder edition on hold. Second stop: Best Buy (Have them check all the stores in a 15 mile radius and DRIVE.) Third Stop: CompUSA Fourth Stop: MicroCenter Fifth Stop: God help me...Walfart (I've never walked into a WM in my life. I'm willing to make...

All I hope is that the makers of the ZBOARD come out with a Civ IV keyset. The Civ III set is pretty slick. :goodjob:

Works with 1.5 Beta2 of FF. :goodjob:

You sir are a bastion of calm. I would have soundly slapped that idiot into last week so he would have to want another week to get Civ IV. Personally I would have snuck the dude a $20 for the right to buy the copy early. :mischief:

I want to know what the heck is going on. First Monday I get an e-mail from ebgames that: Huh.... :confused: Now today I find out it hasn’t shipped. However the number that I gave to contact me was me cell that was stolen on Friday. I had all incoming and outgoing numbers blocked...

The beauty of having a laptop and a desktop. Play civIII on the laptop while you play CivIV on the desktop. Win win situation. ;)

I don't know why there has to be a "last" game. The differences between the two games is enough that I fully expect that I'm going to occasionally go back and dabble with Civ3. Might I suggest a poll? Do you plan on playing Civ3 alongside Civ4?

gah....Poeple are to goody, goody. As long as it can't be used in multiplayer and as long as people aren't being forced to use it what's the harm? Just another feature in the game no worse then tweaking your options before game start. I mean there is going to be some perverse pleasure of...

Bah! There are enough fundamental differences between 3 and 4 that I foresee me loading, and playing, both on my computer for the foreseeable future. I just wish 4 had a utility to import Civ 3 games. I have enough saved games that I love rehashing from time to time which I would KILL to be...

*waves* Hiya. Been playing Civ since I received Civ3 as a X-Mas gift in 2003. Love the game but it’s always felt a bit primitive with its interface and some of the in game details...as more info popped up about Civ IV it became blatantly obvious that a massive revamp was in the works, which...

That depends. Does my session start when I take my lunch break at work to pick up Civ and start reading the manual until I get home to install and play it or does it start when I start playing the game? ;) The beauty of deploying a computer to a user. Setup takes time and during some of those...
