Do you think they should add more Civilzations in C3C?

[GrandEmperorX3]

I pretty sure they should add more Civilizations.

 

[North King]

They do.

 

[Rohili]

C3C is already out long ago, and there are many more civilizations in it.

But if you're asking whether they should add more civs in the next instalment of the game (aka Civ 4), I disagree. 31 civs is more than enough and I highly doubt many people have mastered the techniques for using every single civ (save the experts). Heck, I doubt many has used every single civ before; most people just stick to a few civs they are comfortable with.

Also, I seriously doubt there is any more room for new civs unless they add more traits and units, so that the traits and UUs won't overlap each other.

 

[vmxa]

31 is plenty. If they had more I would never get around to trying them all.

 

[citizen001]

They should add more but they've already milked out every possible one.

 

[Doc Tsiolkovski]

See Austria. There are surely several more suitable Civs (especially SE Asia and Africa, like Siam/Khmer/Mali/Ethopia), but the game doesn't allow for more than 32 Civs. If you want more choices, visit the C&C forum.

 

[GrandEmperorX3]

If they are realizing Civ4, then I would want them to include ALL civilizations from Civ3 and also include Canada, Australia, Mexico, Brazil, and etc.

 

[MeteorPunch]

They'll release it with a decent amount of Civs and then add more in the add-ons .

 

[The Omega]

If they are realizing Civ4, then I would want them to include ALL civilizations from Civ3 and also include Canada, Australia, Mexico, Brazil, and etc.

Canada, Mexico, and Brazil? Why Canada, Mexico, and Brazil?

 

[YanksGiants87]

If the U.S.A is a civ its only fair to add Canada, Mexico, and Australia

 

[Tomoyo]

I think it would be fairer to take away the U.S.

 

[whoknows888]

Do we have to get into these discussions. Tomoyo why should the U.S. be taking out? Any explainations or do you just hate us (j/k) . Mexico would be a suitable civ for Civ4 because it was 1) Part of the Spanish empire 2) had an empire of its own although it was quite scrawny militarily and diplomatic (could be a civ of religious and expansionist or of the sort) and 3) We already have Mexicans invading the U.S. why not add them .

Really guys I dont think Firaxis and Sid is really going to release more Civs because people usually play a particular Civ, there's alot of Civs already, and creating more UUs that may overlap each other. Just my two cents.

 

[Darkness]

I think it would be fairer to take away the U.S.

Which will never happen, purely for commercial reasons....

 

[Doc Tsiolkovski]

Canada, Mexico, Australia, and Brazil?

Why?
Mexico=Aztecs. Brazil, ok, maybe - but there are 20+ Civs that deserve to be included before.
Canada and Australia must be a joke I don't get. That's about the most bizarre list of missing Civs I've ever seen.

 

[Breunor]

Since we have 8 traits, it takes 28 civilizations to have every combo. In game terms, the only primary impact of civs are their characteristics and unique units. The unique units of the Greeks and the Koreans are different enough that they do play differently, but you would have to start seriously doubling up civilization characteristics as the number starts to exceed 28.

There could be a secondary impact of you play with culturally linked starting positions, but it just isn't that important (at least to me, especially since it seems to be messed up now.)

We have lots of Mods to play and all of those conquests. So I don't see the need for more civs, at least from a game standpoint.

[S!n!st3r]

I would like more civs in Civ4, maybe Mexico, Austira, etc. Doc is right though, they need to add more from SE Asia and Africa, instead of cramming more from Europe.

 

[GeneralZed]

Well, Mexico is actually the Mayans (or is it the Aztecs?), so Mexico should be excluded.

Maybe we could have something like this: in some era some Civs change their names to their todays names. So Mayan would be the Mexican, Aztecs the guys from Peru/Bolivia, Osmans would be Turkish, Persia would be Iran etc.

 

[Chazbagel]

Khmers, Ethiopians, Austrians, Cherokee, Navajo

 

[Chazbagel]

They should also seperate the North American and South American culture groups.... Mayan Cities looked nothing like Iriquois cities...

 

[Chieftess]

If you mean more than 31 civs, then no. Civ3 has pretty much reached its' limit coding-wise. With a hard-coded city limit (for memory reasons), having, say, 64 civs would fill up space really quickly. Besides, it would be difficult to pick another 32 civs and still have them be a major influence. (There's only a 160+ nations in the world today, and some were once part of a larger civilization).
