Earth_realsimV1-18 civ realistic and balance game play is the aim

[TrailblazingScot]

This should be in the scenarios/modpacks forum as it is NOT a new Worldmap is it?

 

[mayonaise]

yah, it is

 

[lifeaquatic]

this is an excellent map, I love it!

 

[niust]

just update name and minor stuff .. have fun ..

 

[lifeaquatic]

hey why did you put America in the new world? When i saw that i stopped playing. I wanted to colonize the new world. Thats the whole point.

- Most people only know, The Mercator map, in this game at least... It is not a good map.. if not the worst map to present to real world ...Like India Sub-continent is smaller then greenland... or even Britain!!.... common... it is as big as Europe... But.. I am here to have fun... SO.. I can live with it... but still need to adjust to make it closer to 'reality'.. ..game plays add to the formula... Europe have be Enlarge even more to make room for each civ a few city to begin with.... I will post tips for some civ later...

This (my) map is NOT based on Mercator's projection.

 

[TrailblazingScot]

yah, it is

What do you know

Nothing.

I was tactfully putting it that this is a scenario, not in fact a new World map in any real sense.

You are the Man ... So,what projection is this then?.. just to educate us common folks... so, I will change that OK

 

[jaydh]

would it be possible to change the civs around? maybe ditch the aztecs, incas, romans, persians, malis... add in mexicans, maybe a more current civ(or 2) in South America, possibly canadians, austrailians, more current civs in Africa.

 

[lifeaquatic]

Americans shouldn't be anywhere. America as a nation developed later than all the others by an extreme amount so they just make a ******ed addition to an earth map.

 

[lifeaquatic]

What about the Canadians!! ya ya or the Australians! Or heck how about the Bolivians.

give me a break.

GUYS...chills out...this is a game ... that base on history losely... not a historical manipulation type..... so, civilizations..... vs... nations... vs.. barbarians... vs... who no what... diffinitions is arguable... if what to make it accurate then.. we need times and locations limited to curtian periods... BUT too bad... we play the whole Earth... where time units is 100 years sometimes... so... it is achronical ..ahistorical... Try to Think that you just watching hollywood movies like Alexander or gradiator OK...then just enjoy the game......
by the way.. just more change on the ver 1.2 some minor mistake but it fix now.

it is Robinson's, with some adjustments to enlarge Europe and give Pacific ocean a proper shape as in Miller's projection

Thats half the fun of 'colonizing' though.. you need to get rid of the native inhabitants..

Or if you play as America the challenge is to stretch as far as possible and keep up with eurasia as far as techs go so you dont get overrun when they find you.

EDIT: Few things
-Incan not Inkan
-Why cant you choose alternate leaders?
-Really shouldnt start with a worker, it imbalances things IMO (I started as England)
-I had contact with Russia starting as england..

 

[TheeLord]

Alot of the diplomatic text isnt there, just the DIPLO_DEMAND_TRIBUTE things...

Also, England seems very very small, I had the whole island terraformed and occupied by 2000bc... Thanks to the worker.

EDIT:
Scandanavia looks a little too fertile in my opinion.. It just looks like it would turn into the most important land in Europe almost every game.

 

[TheeLord]

WAYYYY too much food in england lol I couldnt control my unhappiness early on cause I couldnt make specialists and stuff... England should also be like one tile north and you should add another tile onto northern France

Incan.. is computer gerated barbarain... not one that the map have in the beginning... the map is in senario.. leaders chosen before the map... workers.. every body got one.. contact earlier ? I'll look in to it..

diplomatic stuff ..? not thing to do with this map.. I think ,, its the game..
England(Great Britain).. is small ... yes... but almost as big as india too... this map is small but already too big.. so. i guess we cannot get it all...I think england can have 3-4 cities to begin(include on scandinavia, Irland) so better than spain or roman... or greek .. I think it is balance now...

for scan being too fertile.. I wil look at it..
