Multiplayer behavior!

No actually I haven't but basing my assumption off of the community here, and assuming people will come here when looking for games/people to play online, then there's a fairly decent chance you won't run into too many lamos, since the majority of people I've noticed that frequent these boards (Mainly the people that don't come around during peek times, such as this, when Civ4 will soon be released, yes I fall into this category too, but I've been a long time 'lurker') are very level headed mature individuals, I'd say so long as you know where to look, it won't be hard getting a nice game going.

I hope I get to play with some of the forumites on multiplayer, however I don't recall ever playing with them before. I keep my username for MP close to my CFC username. It's "Knupp" and I hope to see some of you guys out there. However, unfortunately, there will be some jerks who run around in the MP games and quit for stupid reasons. I'm glad there are buddy lists now, so I can weed out the bad players, and add the good ones.
 
Of course nobody wants to play with a 5 year old trapped in an adult's body (commonly found online) so you have to either play with your friends or, like several people have mentioned, make some good contacts. Maybe I'm lacking the "type-A" competition gene, but I'm not all about smoking everybody else at record speed. If I had the choice between having a long game where eveyone was having fun and a short, brilliant victory... I'd take the long game (even if I lost). This may be bordering on blasphemy here but.. who really cares if you are good at a computer game? :rolleyes: Not everyone has 25 hours per day to sit in front of their computer. For those people with school, jobs, and family that are limited in their time playing (like a lot of people here), I think the enjoyment is playing well, learning as you go, and just having fun. If I were to start a game with 3 other people and one starts off surrounded by 200 tiles of tundra and bears, I would have no problem with restarting a game. Why not? Just my opinion but I think the key is to just have fun, enjoy meeting some new friends to play with online, and have a ball with what will most likely be one of the greatest games ever. Some of you hard-charging, win at all cost type players may disagree but that's OK too. To each their own. :beer:

I don't mind restarting a game when 2/3 people have crappy starting locations, as long as everyone in the game agrees to restart because it would make the game more fun. If nobody wants to restart and this one person leaves just "because" then that's when I have a problem with it.

YES!!! People like me:lol:
I'll be sure to write down your name too:)
 
Sounds great, I'll keep 18D for MP. I look forward to some great games. :thumbsup:
 
Just to add, all those 'jerks' can be ganged up upon because usually they are too busy trying to out-jerk each other.

Not hard for mature players to win.
 
Depending on the profanity filter, I may or may not keep the same forum name:D :cool: :scan: :nuke:
 
All you need to do is ally with the more mature players and eliminate the jerks quickly. :)

Count me in. I have never played multiplayer except with my friends because I hate how people act in online games. If I decide to give it a go, I'll be looking for y'all.:D

All those players who would like to play games as stated bt 18d's post can pm myself, and probably 18d and Knupp. I will keep a list, and we will see what we get. Hopefully we will have our own set of mature - just love the game - players.
 
well my idea is bring three friends for to be my allies then we will use nuke blow out one player enemy. hehehehe.
