DG4 Game Options: World Size?

Donovan Zoi · Dec 04, 2003, 09:13 PM

This is the Game Options discussion for World Size.

What size do we want our map to be in DG4?

Tiny
Small
Standard
Large
Huge
Custom
Random

This discussion will run for 5 days, after which I will post a poll.

I vote for Large. I would really like Huge, but the save may be too much for some people's machines.

CivGeneral · Dec 04, 2003, 10:41 PM

Ditto. Even though I use a high power laptop. I believe large is reasonable so that it would put less strain on the citizen’s hard drive and processors.

Ankka · Dec 05, 2003, 05:55 AM

Yes, large is for instance for my computer the total max size of a map, bigger ones take ages to load.

Falcon02 · Dec 05, 2003, 09:14 AM

Large

Rik Meleet · Dec 05, 2003, 10:53 AM

Same here; large.

Bootstoots · Dec 05, 2003, 01:46 PM

Large makes the most sense to me; it worked well last game.

Stuck_as_a_Mac · Dec 05, 2003, 03:07 PM

Lets be big and Largeish.

amirsan · Dec 05, 2003, 03:27 PM

well I guess its large then!

Donovan Zoi · Dec 05, 2003, 03:47 PM

This one seems to be decided within the first 24 hours.

I wouldn't mind playing on the Huge map again, but can agree that a Large Map would better serve the community as a whole.

Unless I get some dissenting views on the Large Map, I won't even need to send this one to poll.

TerminalMan90 · Dec 05, 2003, 04:27 PM

I like 'em large.

Charon · Dec 05, 2003, 06:19 PM

Huge could potentially host more room for bigger\more provinces, and it's there the fact Demogames have no problem with micromanagement later on in the game -really- kicks in.
It's true some players may have some troubles running huge on their comp, so if there's really people left with comps like that in the DG we should take probobly Large.

conehead234 · Dec 05, 2003, 06:29 PM

Large size it.

chiefpaco · Dec 06, 2003, 06:49 AM

Medium. A smaller map is easier to maintain and keep in good order.

DaveShack · Dec 06, 2003, 08:09 AM

I agree with large, or we could recruit a reputable scenario maker to do a custom map.

Noldodan · Dec 07, 2003, 02:00 AM

Large it is, then. I think we have to do a confirmation poll though.

Inter4 · Dec 07, 2003, 12:57 PM

LARGE. LARGE, LARGE

Eklektikos · Dec 08, 2003, 09:21 AM

Large as maximum.

Furiey · Dec 08, 2003, 09:33 AM

The bigger the better for me, but keeping in mind people with slower machines – I’d be happy with large.

Sarevok · Dec 09, 2003, 11:46 PM

HUGE!
