As for cartoonieness, I think people will have to live with it, as it appears that the style will be similar to that of SMP!.

I fervently hope so.

If the graphics in civ4 are cartoony, I ain't paying for it.


Bad enough that it looks like concepts such as corruption and pollution are going to be dispensed with...

Or get Warpstorm or snoopy to make new graphics.

At the firaxis websit they are looking for
Scenario Designer

Responsibilities:
• Develop tutorials
• Design custom maps
• Create full scenarios
• Test and analyze modding tools

Required Skills:
• 3+ years of scenario design experience (please reference at least one playable scenario)
• Extensive knowledge of Civilization & Turn-Based Strategy Games

• Communicates effectively in team environments

Bonus Skills:
• Completed scenarios for Civ 2, Civ 3, or Alpha Centauri
• B.S. in Computer Science or related field

This would prove that they are not going out of the turn based game and into and RTS type game. Why would they hire someone with extensive turn-based strategy if they are going to turn civIV into an RTS game.

It was announced that Civ 4 will be a TBS game a while ago.
