Some Suggestions....

Here are some suggestions I would like to see for Civ4....
(NOTE: Will add more later on)

1)Aliens! they could attack any time....It would be similar like volcanoes, but they are aliens. come at any time. Advance, or not advance..They would have cool ships too

2)Add on to the alien one...We get to build battle space ships to attack the aliens...Also make alliances with aliens...

3)More AGES!!! What is after the Modern Times. there should be a future age or Space age, Computer age, ANYTHING!! Would be more fun..have laser men for military....

4)CASTLES! During the Middle Ages was there castles? YES! So where i nthe world are they....

5)More wonders! There was alot of wonders. Maybe add the Stature of Liberty so we wont have to download a mod. Other things too..

6) Far fetched but a time machine to conquer the other civs easily. Might be hard to balance to the other civs though...

Will add more later in the thread or add them up here.

Discuss....

1) To be honest, I think your alien and time machine ideas are either a little stupid or satirically brilliant.

2) See #1. This, among other reasons, is too unrealistic. Note, I don't just say "unrealistic," but "too unreastic." But in the future...But you can have a similar idea with significantlly more advance nations...

3) Agree, generally

4) Your castle idea is very interesting, though, since it is relitively specific to certain cultures and regions of the world, would be more suitable for senarios. Plus, (I assume this is something to be place in the early middle ages) would not be fun unless they increased the amount of turns, since you would switch to the castle system and back without having much time to "enjoy" the experience of it.

5) About the wonders idea, I like the idea of more wonders, but only if the tech tree in all would be expanded upon. Otherwise, it would be just too wonder-dense.

6) No Way. See #1.

Here is some more...

NOTE: Some of them might already been said...

7)New Civs! the more, the better. There is a lot during the world.

8)Get money for people to fly/train/ etc. Citizens of your Civ can fly to other countries and you get the money.

9)Add on to #8...Hi - jakers for planes trains, etc. You know acts of terrroism. (note to modertors: dont know if I could talk about this in here (#9)..notify me if I can't and will delete....)

10)Revolutionary War! Not like in Civ3, but something different..don't know how but its a good idea....

More coming SOON!
