I have a idea for Russias UU. It will be a nuclear robot called X-05 Stalin. It will shoot nukes and enemys.
Sorry, but that's not how it is going to be. See, when the Neo-Soviets take over Russia and start the great nuclear apocolypse which ends up destroying most of the world they are prepared for the ensuing carnage with the "Harvester." It's te heaveist death robot of the era with armor designed to withstand nuclear blasts. It's primary weapon is a high powered EMP that devestates the functions of most enemies. It's secondary a standard laser cannon. It's tertiary weapon is a giant finely sharpened sickle which use to mow down cities and ocassionally Giant Death Robots.

Highgeneral said:
Perfection in the Nuclear Apocalypse,you speak of? What new techs will be in this age?
Oh, lot's of stuff. A lot of burrowing robots and Deap sea robots come into play as only the heaviest armored robots like the aforementioned Harvester can survive on the surface. It's a time where robots stop being just surface dwellers and tap in to the ground and sea below!

Colonel said:
ok now this is honest question

if u have nukes on this thing how do u get around poultion everywhere what just who cares and keep goin,
Oh, when nuclear warfare occurs everything gets all weird and desert-like and eerie looking. Cities start going underground and underwater and the game moves into the Post-Nuclear Apocolypse Age.

Colonel said:
(not every unit in the game would be a robot thing)
That's where you're wrong!

shadowdude said:
They could could be "mini nukes" or low yield nuclear warheads which would have only a fraction of the pollution and radiation caused by regular warheads.
That's true, but a full nuclear exchange is pretty much inevitable in the game. You can't be a weak peacnik forever!

Try to think of them in an awesome scale...
See, now who's gonna tell me that those aren't awesome?

Colonel said:
um theres still poultion that u would have to deal with so u have to have 50 or so workers to come behind any time u used them. Think about the comp useing them blowin the sh*# out of ur cities. Even if ur robot survied there would be poultion due to the nukes ur game would be FUC@ED u would have poultion everywhere ur cities would be gone, u would need like an un beliveable amounts of money to sustain an army of these which u couldnt get even in communist goverement SO GO PLAY ANOTHER GAME IF THIS IS WHAT U WANT!!!!
It's called going underground and surviving in nuclear bomb shelters eating canned goods, genetically modified hydroponic crops and fungi! Plus workers are lame, they will not be in the game. Please, I'm not going to make robots require money to support them, what they need is supplies of uranium or gasoline or coal or whatever depending on the era! All your problems with lame Civ3 concepts will be gone because all lame Civ3 concepts will be gone! Think outside your lame Civ 3 box, man!

Colonel said:
or mod the game when u get it
To have full scale 3D rendered battles, I don't think so! Modding will do no justice to the awesomeness of Giant Death Robots!


Colonel said:
my final say there is to much wrong with this that it could never and would never be put in the game, Good Bye
Maybe because there is so much wrong with your concept of the game that you won't let go of your stupid ideas in exchange for true awesomeness! Think outside your lame Civ 3 box, man!

As for Good Bye, you'll be back. I know these things.

shadowdude said:
Please consider revising your statement so I can read it.
I think I got what he was saying, still the use of "u" instead of "you" drives me crazy. It's only two more letters to make it look professional instead of lame and informal!
 
u all seem to be spending alot of time on this considering that everyone knows this crap isnt going to be in the game

and its not awesome its some dumb rip off of some other game u played before please dont try and ruin one of the greatest game with ur pyscotic idea of death robots which will never be in this game go play whatever game u got this from to play with GAY death robots (UNREALISTIC COMPLETELY)


See, now who's gonna tell me that those aren't awesome? I will there gay looking besides it being a rip off of a ton of different games

Be silent you peasant!
Tsss, how can you not see the awesomeness of Giant Death Robots? As Perfection (long may his toenails grow) said, you must think outside your lame Civ 3 box man!

Oh, and Perfection: Will there be like this HUGE giant death robot with a city in it? I mean, come on! Normal cities are lame! But a city inside a GDR would be awesome!
 
Colonel said:

You seem to be spending a considerable amount of time at this thread too. ;)

As for the idea, it's completly awesome. It takes the core idea of civ, fighting on a massive scale, and gives it whole new meaning!

And it's not going to be in the game, Giant Death Robots will be the game!

Good to see that we have some rational people here!

If you remember in my first post I mentioned a "Secret Age Beyond" well, not to spoil the surprise but it will contain something along the vien you are suggesting. ;)

If one is familiar with Sim City 2000, Perfection advises them to think of something like a cross between Megatron (of Autobots Tranformers fame) and a Darco. ;)

I can't tell you anything more, unless of course you get approval from the highest levels of Atari.
 
After the great nuclear era what will come? Will mankind and GDRs get out of this age?

Will there be any human troops? Will there still be farms and roads?

Please use punctuation at least at some times, so I can make sense out of what you are trying to say. I know this is the internet so incorrect grammar is tolerated but that is just one giant run on.

You seem to be spending a lot of time on this thread too:hmm: so perhaps if you don't like the idea you should just stop posting in this thread.

Oh, and as Perfection said Giant Death Robots will be the game. How can you mock an idea as excellent as giant death robots. You have to think outside of the limits man! It takes a visionary to come up with such well crafted ideas. So if you have nothing of relevance to contribute than please don't continue to post.

It's not a dumb rip-off of other GDR based games, just like, Civ isn't a dumb rip-off of risk! The reason, because it has new and inspired stuff! No previous GDR game as the scope of the history of GDRs as Civ 4 will have. This game is by far above all other games involving GDRs. As for gay, there are two connotations, both incorrect. Giant Death Robots are not lighthearted save the occasional scout or artillery bot. Giant Death Robots are not hmosexual because they have no sexuality, they're robots, not people, silly! Robots do not have genders!

It's not a rip-off of other games it's a combination of ideas from games to make a super game. Just because I use and adapt ideas from other games doesn't make it a rip-off, nitwit!

Highgeneral said:

Yes, there will be the fusion age, where robots start flying and in the end go into space with ion engines (you'll begin to see the emergence of a new Civ called "Space Pirates" in this era).

Then we see hyperdrive in the anitmatter age and your robots can travel at hyperspeed, battle alien GDRs and teleport.

Then comes the secret age beyond, which is an age beyond the antimatter age, the contents of it are a secret. That's why it's called the secret age beyond.

Highgeneral said:
Will there be any humn troops?
No, because humans are made of weak weak flesh.

Highgeneral said:
Will there still be farms and roads?
Yeah, but those are built automatically, you need to be concentrating on building GDRs not infastructure!

shadowdude said:
I've played simcity2000 for who knows how long and a mix between a darco and a megatron seems well...interesting.
Oh, it will be awesome, but I can't tell you more, it's a secret. ;)
 
Farms? Why do we need farms if the game is all about GDRs?
 
CivCube said:
Farms? Why do we need farms if the game is all about GDRs?
Realistic battlefields. In the earlier eras you'll sometimes battle in farm country. And you'll see cows and barns and farmers and tractors all get squished by giant robotic feet!
 
Ahhh, it all makes sense now. All we need now is a randomly-selected Transformers cartoon clip between ages and this game will be perfect.
 
the more i hear the more i think this is gay and am glad i know this cant be in Civ4 =-)
 
CivCube said:

I don't think it's Perfect yet, but it's getting there! Video clips between ages is a must have, however I think it would be best to have it with cartoon versians of in game robots. There needs to be some element of cartoon, because cartoons are awesome!

shadowdude said:
Some people must design and build the GDRs.
That's true as well. That's why you'll have cool videos with engineers and scientists showing off their latest creations!

Colonel said:

The more and more I hear of you, the more I think you're a nitwit and the more glad I am that your lame insults will not prevent Civ 4 from being filled with Giant Death Robots!

Anyways, you said goodbye earlier, so could you please do what is traditionally done after saying goodbye and leave?
 
Colonel said:

That is where you are wrong. All of this stuff about Highways, new units, Civics, province capitals, unified economic theories, none of that will be in CIV4. Only GDRs will be in CIV4, well that and Sid's name somehow.

"this is gay". The cool thing about the GDRs is one of their weapons, the EMP Plasma Reorientator, will cause straight people to be gay and gay people to be straight. So after playing CIV4 you be posting things like
"this is straight" when you want to dis an idea.

I sure hope that first time you discover EMP Plasma Reorientator tech they show some scenes from "Queer Eye for a Straight Guy" that would be awesome.

You left out cool graphics, and sciency stuff! Oh and there will be highways, how do you think the Autobots Transformers will get around?

Well, that won't be in the released version of the game, but it will be very easily modable so you could do such things.

Well if the EMP Plasma Reorientator isn't in the game and nobody modes it. I won't buy it nor will any of my 5 cats.

That's fine with me, I think we'd sell more copies if we didn't include sexuality as a game concept. The loss of you and your 5 cats would be insignificant.
