Where will you go from here?

[ainwood]

Keep playing Civ III. Can't bring myself to give more money to these companies unless they build a much better AI.

The Civ4 AI is much better than the Civ3 version.

Me - I'll continue to play both. Probably much less Civ3 though.

 

[Ignatiuz]

I miss this option...

Buy Civ IV, can't play it, return game and wait until the two/three expansions come out for Civ IV then buy the complete version.

 

[zerksees]

The Civ4 AI is much better than the Civ3 version.

This may be true. However, I am confident that the new masters of Civ4 will find the gaps in the AI logic and drive a truck through them. It is just a matter of time.

That doesn't mean the game won't be more popular than Civ 3 - it probably will be.

zerksees has a point, that the AI is predictable, no matter how advanced, and can be used to ones advantage if exploited right (not really exploited, just toyed with honorably).

AI is always gonna suck lads. I'm afraid the only real option is to play with strictly humans.

I honestly believe that playing with AI results in lower quality gameplay and therefore is a waste of time. The only reason i've done it so much in the past was perfect my gameplay for the day I am finally let out of my cage unto the online battlefield.

That's right people, i've been waiting a long time for what's soon about to happen due to my recent purchase of Civilization III: Complete. The only problem is that being a poor college student for the first time has allowed me to have my phone disconnected very easily so I am no longer able to access the internet to play my game.

And if it weren't for my slow ass computer I would play Civ IV, and I would play Huge maps. But some of us don't have that luxury. We can't afford the million dollar machine it's going to take to play a massive yet fun as hell map on Civ IV. That's just not realistic, but I will tell you one thing, look for me on the Civ III tiny map battlefield because anything people, is better than the lifewasting quality of a good 1 human 7 AI game of any Civilization I, IV, whatever, i'm not wasting my time with their bull**** tactics. Learning how to beat the computer on three consecutive Civilization versions so I can finally realize i'm probably not going to be able to play Civ IV in my lifetime. Listen, my laptop (The cheapest available anywhere I could find that would meet the requirements for my course) is running low on battery and I forgot my cord at home. No I can't go get it with my car. I don't jhave that crap.

Peace

Word Up.

Peace

 

[tR1cKy]

Will stick with Civ3, for now.

 

[garyg]

I picked the wait for the expansion packs. By then I might have a computer that can handle Civ 4.

 

[Padma]

I will wait until Cedega/WineX runs Civ4 reliably in Linux. I refuse to install any Microsoft crap on my system, not even for my beloved Civ.

 

[CivFan91]

I am going to wait for the price to drop below $50. I can't afford that. By the time I save up $50, I may need half that.

I selected the last option as a j/k.

 

[Yondaime]

Play Civ3 until I can afford to get Civ4...
My comp is awesome!

 

[Abaddon]

I have no upgrade issues- im waiting for the price drop

 

[Evil Tyrant]

Civ III, my antiquated computer can't run civ IV.

 

[thetrooper]

CIV3 GD traffic is quite slow these days.

 

[gunkulator]

My computer's fine and I have enough money to buy IV. I just can't stand playing overly buggy or unbalanced games. I'm content to stick with III until the consensus on IV is that it is a decent game.

 

[aaronpark]

I know i'll play 3 and 4 but i'll play civ IV more exclusively

 

[ottawan]

Have to agree with zerksees on this one.

Plus, as others have said, I have so much more to accomplish in C3C

 

[Smellincoffee]

My computer can't run Civilization IV, so I haven't bought it. I'll keep playing Civ3 until I upgrade my computer and then we'll see. I have SimCity 4 and The Sims 2, but I still play SimCity 3000 and The Sims -- and I play them more than I do their sequels.

 

[GermanRuler]

Who voted option 4, I mean your a Civ Fantics member, aren't you?

 

[The 777 Hoax]

I, personally, love my computer because of the GeForce FX card I just got as a gift. Now if only I could get Civ4 as a gift... I don't have the money right now! Dang.
