I'm actually 16 and not a technophobe. I do think new technology is great but I don't need it to entertain myself.
No, I think he's old. Just old people are technophobic.
I prefer Civ II over Civ III/IV for:
-Because it can run simply in a window , small program, so I can do something else on the computer while waiting for the other players to finish their turn.
- I like Civ in 2D, not in 3D. Also I find the 2D view more appropriate for big wargame where i can have a quick synthetic view all of my units in a single look on the world map without fancy stuff around. I don't care much about the GFX, it's not what make Civ fun for me ( My pc can run fine civ III or civ IV, it's not a matter of hardware)
There are Great People in CivIII...? You've got stuff to explain.By curiosity, is there a modification of Civ III that remove/disable all the Great People, New elements of Culture, Nationality and the Arts so the gameplay will be more close to Civ II while keeping some of the good stuff of Civ III ?
I remember seeking for such long time ago, but maybe one was made since?

Yeah, Scientific and Military great leaders. Military leaders build Armies. Scientific leaders are -supposed- to increase empire-wide scientific output by 20-25%, but a bug in the code actually impedes research. Both can hurry city production.Swedishguy said:There are Great People in CivIII...?
I've used Military Leaders, but I'm afraid I've never heard of Scientific ones. Is that something from Conquerors expansion? I can't find anything about them in Play the World.Yeah, Scientific and Military great leaders. Military leaders build Armies.

Guess again.I take it you haven't played Civ3?
I believe so, yes. They're enabled through game options, the last option in the bottom-right corner.Swedishguy said:I've used Military Leaders, but I'm afraid I've never heard of Scientific ones. Is that something from Conquerors expansion? I can't find anything about them in Play the World.
Ahhhh, a toe-in-water kinda guy?Guess again.

The vehicles are few and soulless, there are fewer airplanes, there are more than five classes (which is ********). Exactly how is the gameplay better? Explain.Sorry, but BF2 is better then BF1942 (not meaning to start another argument). Gameplay is much more fun on BF2

As I've said before, you really picked the wrong franchise. Go play RTS games if you hate complexity.The best things is that is that Civ2 lacks the complexity of Cov3 and Cov4. Yet is is addictive like Civ1.
It brings long games where you have many more freedom than 3 and 4. 3 and 4 punish you for expanding.
.
I'm a warmonger.
I've played 2 way after 3 was released. Then I switched to 4, but I didn't like it.
Now I play 3 and 1.
Nah, civ3 is just right.As I've said before, you really picked the wrong franchise. Go play RTS games if you hate complexity.
