Why No Official Response?

To all the bugs that are still obviously in the game after the patch.

I feel sorry for Sid. I have been a loyal fan of the civ series since it was first released in 1991 and up until now it has always been a pleasurable experience.

I'm sure he regrets chosing to deal with such a sorry excuse for a company.

I hope so...his reputation just went down the toilet. (yes, i doubt he wrote one piece of the code, but it is his name on the box)

He can't be happy about it but I wonder if he even knows...does anyone ever recall Sid signing on to a forum? Or even lurking? He may be so removed from the forums that he is unaware of the tempest in a teapot over here. He works with his developers and with the 2K marketing types and everyone tells him things are hunky dory and what isnt will be fixed in a patch...spin, spin, spin. He may not even be aware of the issues in any detail.

Isn't he on some promo tour? Maybe someone should bail him up and tell him all about it
On the other hand, the burly security types may put a quick end to that. One wonders how to get a direct email to someone like that - not filtered through the company so only the good/acceptable news gets through.
On the other hand, you would imagine he might "lurk" in the forums every now and then... we can only hope!

Wasn't there a "talk to Sid" button on the game site? or maybe it was for Civ3. I agree, he really should be aware of what a mess this company has made of his legacy.
