Map size

[JG99_Korab]

Which map size do you normaly play with?

I used to play on small maps, so that the game wouldn't take to long to complete. But I resently discovered fun in playing larger maps. The diplomatics in large maps is much more fun than on a small map. I resently started a game on a huge map, I really do enjoy it. Except for the increase in IBT time.

I used to do huge maps, it's large now.

played a huge earth game once, took AGES! so usually play small or tiny now. though i have been known to venture to normal now and again

I played on a huge map once, and my poor old computer nearly had an aneurism - seriously, it took so long between turns that I could hit the restroom, grab a snack, fold some laundry, wax the car, and take in the latest film down at the cinerama before it came back around. So it's small/standard these days.

I play large. You have a bit of an advantage over the ai, but I like the epic feel and I like to deal with more civs than 8.

 

[Tomoyo]

Standard. That's what the game was meant for. It's the default. It's standard, for some unbaised higher power's sake!

I play all sizes, but I prefer the larger ones. Games on tiny and small maps are over before I get very far into the tech tree, so large maps are my default...

My first game was on Huge. Now I play on a 252x252 map thanks to being shown how to do this with the editor on these forums. You should include more options in your poll!

Playing with 31 civs on a 252x252 map is awesome. I can never go back to Huge

Standard, but sometimes Tiny or Small if I want a quick game.

 

[Babbler]

Large and Standard, but mostly large.

 

[Pounder]

Lately huge with 31 civs.

I always play standard. Not so big that you get stuck in the expansion age forever and ever, but not so small that you can't have good diplomacy and good wars.

 

[klopolov]

Standart, big enough for fun wars and diplomacy, small enough not to take forever.

 

[TimBentley]

Random, except that I won't play huge. I can just imagine taking a year to play a difficult spaceship victory on a huge map.

O.T. Korab, are u Forgotten Battles/Pacific Fighters fan?

 

[h4ppy]

I always play huge, sometimes I even mod it to be bigger than huge. Its more fun that way.

 

[SuperBeaverInc.]

I play on Standard. On occasion, I will play on huge maps when I want a little bit of a harder game.

 

[Desertsnow]

I've never played with other than Standard size; one of these days I might try something new.

 

[xiaoafei]

huge, always.
it changes the way you play this game. a game on huge map can last into modern age more likely than games on a small map and gives the player more chance to play with every toys provided by the designer of the game.
