This would be a terrific mp game. Take the larger AI fractions you have to deal with and replace them by humans. That would be really great. But so you have standard AI bots which differ only in what direction they go, more trade, more expansion or more war. You play against the bot avatar, you know what he is doing on the next map.

Queer indeed. Might buy the CE and keep it in the plastic, but I aint putting a non-redeemable-activational-key in.
Don't need that "You can just message customer service after 3 installs for a new activation" bullshit either. Thugs.

JBeckman (i think) said something about the way Tages activation works. He wasn't clear on if he was sure but he said that after a few weeks an activation gets unlocked. So if you install and then wait a few weeks, you get your activation back which gives you 3 installs again. If thats right, i think its a good system.

I read that article as well, and I do agree that system is alright, atleast not as bad as the securom one. |

That's how TAGES works indeed, it's a much better system than SecuROM.

Some AI's are actually more interesting to play vs than some humans that REALLY just do the same thing every single match. Same exact build order and same exact rushes or bullshit like that.
You know, people who think they are hardcore because they play to win in 5min rather than actually enjoy a game.
I really only play MP in fps games.

all the pre anno's had mp, and it wasnt really much fun. Either it was a , as mentioned above, a rush rushfest to destroy enemies with military (boring really) or it became almost endless game trying to build up the biggest economy (where you never finish a game, ever lol). I really don't mind it being "only SP (As in skirmish kinda vs game mode beside the obvious story mode).

Don`t read much about it in the official forums?! The copy protection doesn`t make any problems as far as I know. DRM is a pain the ass that´s absolutely true, but in this case, I think they (Ubi) can use whatever they want to keep their profits.
BECAUSE: After 15 hours of gameplay I think that´s the most stable game I ever played. It runs flawlessly on W7, it´s well designed, has a great atmosphere and after 15 hours I still want to play it. It doesn`t matter how many personal goals you reached, how many inhabitants your city has, you´ll always find a reason to go further. Why? I don´t know. I can´t remember the last time I´ve played such a masterpiece.
Oh and yeah, I´m a fanboy...

I have to agree with hirschq here, as I've now bought the game and played it for about an hour, it looks very nice and it has a good feeling to it. The only annoying part thus far has been some of the questgiving voice acting in the tutorial mission.
Other than that it is very well done, you can see the cloth of the marketplace stalls rustling in the wind, people going about their daily lives, all the little nice details that really made The Settlers such a joy to play, only it's much better done here with the obvious advantage of a good 3d engine 
Theres no slowdowns anywhere and performance is really good with 4x AA and AF. The interface, icons and whatever elses of graphics there is in the UI is also quite nice to look at - it is of course very intuitive.
I can tell this is a game that you can literally lose yourself in playing and I will do so later when I've more time 
These are just my first impressions after an hour of gameplay.

Yeah, this game is awesome, as soon as you get past the first two missions
It is really deep, but it's not so deep that you're looking at spreadsheets as they've actually made the interface very user friendly, and it's easy to see what you have of resources and what you need.
