Its SO damn stupid - its stupid to play it, IMHO. That's the problem. F*** it.

Don't get me wrong, I'm totally knocking the game. I never saw such attention to detail in a game before that was so inherently bogus... The combat system, the time system, the system of cultural development - etc. etc. etc. It BLOWS, its so damn stupid. Its COMPLETELY ungrounded in anything...

To each their own. (And, don't ask me what I think of contemporary mass opinion's regarding just about any subject. If you did, you would begin to realize the true meaning of disappointment. Welcome to the dark-ages.)

I can't say I feel ripped off on account of the game not being operational. I didn't have any real bugs except for the great game bog beginning in the Epic around 1,000 bc, and until the computer took so long to make one move it was a matter of 20 min turns for the AI. I would assume that has...

No, its religion and society, and with that, responsibility; being another capacity in which Firaxis/2K has been sorely negligent, IMO.

Boy, you really are reaching to justify being a truly bombastic flamer. I would surmise, given the effort to obfuscate the premise of my post (not yours, grubby), that you have a problem with my honest opinion 2k/Firaxis is incompetent at game design. Well, in general, I don't apologize for the...

That's fine. You can think that. I find that any subject matter beyond that which is quantitatively/mathematically based is subject to perspective and opinion. And, no if you must know, I don't base my opinion that Al Costa is not competent for Mod making solely upon his educational background...

Maybe Max is, as he thinks naivity, or even ignorance for a subject, is synonymous with teenager. I was just making note that you are a teenager being indoctrinated by a specific 'school' of thought, and which in my view, may mean that you are lacking in analytical discipline - "true...

LOL, Max. #1 I wasn't insulting just stating the facts. Btw, naivity and adolescence aren't necessarily redundant, and surely aren't insulting (if anything, neutral with the possibility of being complemetary by my standards). Naivity surely depends mostly upon the subject matter and the...

Well if Fr. Gerald says that's the truth, then it must be right, right? So, you are a naive teenager building a mod over religion, and when #1 you don't have comprehensive knowledge of the subject #2 a cultural and educational bias apparently prevents you from expanding your scope and...

Sir Schwick, I had never heard of Paradox Games and I had crawled the search engines for years looking for a decent division level game of WW2. Or, otherwise, I may have seen Hearts of Iron and dismissed it because of the 'Risk' style map... (I think they need better advertising). Having played...

You should see "Patton" as played by George C. Scott. He does a great job conveying his personality. Interesting quotes and thanks for sharing.

Please elaborate on the scripting, if you will. I would like to try it - it surely can't be inferior to the present system.

Coupled with supply, we could actually play WW2. Imagine that! I'm currently engaged in one discussion about supply possibilities that you might benefit from: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=137154&page=9#162

YO! I'm just the poor sucker who bought the game. You have some level of access, apparently, to its design. So why not be a little more conscious of the community, and make a better game for the love of Mike? ("make it and you'll put it in..." Crike!)

Back atcha, Jeff... :cool:

The truth is, I'm not (yet) even proficient enough at the current combat system, in terms of its exact mechanics, to determine specifics with regard to damage. Basically, its just food for thought. But, tentatively, the idea is that units in the Range category would be out of reach to units of a...

Thanks Khak... Time will tell, hopefully.

I would argue, as per its constitution, it provides an ethics code; although, that first and foremost its an account of the greater mechanism of reality, being innately a spiritual one, operating at the furthest reaches of our awareness. I really like the Animistic Native American religions...

As a side note: I find your scenarios really appealing, Plotinus. You obviously have a semblance of mastery on their historical import, and I feel confident that an enjoyable level of detail bordering upon realistic simulation would shine through your work. Having ditched my Civ3 because I...
