Which MAP types do you play the most?

[maltz]

My favorite map type is real-earth maps.

I have been drawing maps since grade school. Playing on "real" maps allows me to better imagine the greatness of civilizations. I can better imagine the exciting moments of the world. The rivers, mountains, and strategic locations are (hopefully) accurate. "Crossing the Alps like Hannibal" feels better than "crossing that mountain".

Real-earth maps offer a great variation of strategies even on different birth places of the same map, as the terrain can be drastically different. I admire people who has the patience to use the same civilizations on the same map type over and over. I would chew my Civ5 DVD on the third run.

Random only...ever.

 

[Drawmeus]

PerfectWorld3

 

[binhthuy71]

Random for me. Random leaders as well.

 

[Man vs Civ AI]

Pangaea - I get to meet each Civ early in the game.

 

[qyll]

Pangea.

I used to play continents a lot, but then i got tired of having to deal with a superciv at the end of every game.

What would Fractal be considered in this poll? I've taken a liking to playing on them lately.

 

[Optional]

Fractal. Surprise me.

 

[Pouakai]

Fractal or PerfectWorld 3.

 

[aatami]

Fractal for me.

I play more on continents on average, which is how I voted. But I play several map types depending on my mood and what I want out of the game. Incas on highlands is sometimes just to much fun to pass up.

 

[Gilkan]

Pangaea. I find the AI handles itself better in purely ground wars.

 

[Kevin J]

Pangaea plus. usually. I play all maps though, and tend to make a lot of custom maps just for trying out games I think would be fun.

 

[Polycrates]

Almost always continents, but I've taken a real shine to PerfectWorld lately

 

[BranjoHello]

I played Continents, Pangea and Ancient Lakes so far and the next game will be Archipelago. I like the variety.

Including other Civs, I played Continents the most.

 

[Becomedeath]

Continents, while the AI might not like building a navy, I love it. Archi's are just a bit too random and give crappy start-ups, but nothing beats having your own contient conquered even if you're aiming for a science victory.

 

[DefoesRightBoot]

Pangaea generally, although I often like to do things like play a tiny map with 16 civs, or conversely a huge map with 2 civs. Makes the game very different.

 

[filli_noctus]

Continents and PerfectWorld mostly, occasionally archipelago.

 

[lietkynes]

Fractal should be in the poll, it's my favourite.
Sometimes I play Pangaea.
Continents makes the game way too easy, so I never play it.

 

[Steelyglint]

Terra Incognito. Highly packed, lots of wars, slaying the barb armies on the New World is fun. Or Continents with extra Civs and raging barbs.
