"ach civilization remembers your past actions and will react to you based on (among other things) whether or not you've refused to help them in the past, are currently trading with their enemies, or have closed your borders to them. But in the face of all these adjustments, the single biggest gripe a rival will hold against you is that you've fallen under the sway of a "heathen religion.""

That is so fucking cool...

Hope u can mod your religions...

Satanism.. woot.. Very Happy or ill build a mighty atheist empire and take on every single religous civ Very Happy

the only negative bit i can see from the review is the space race victory ...

The guys right.. that was awsome in past.. once u built the space ship you had to wait for the ship to get to Alpha Centauri ... and when you launched u had like everyone try and take down your capital...

However thats just a minor little issue =] i cant fucking wait for this game... didnt want to get hyped.. but reading that review.... Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Well, Firaxis has said the modding possibilities in the game is as advanced as giving you the possibility to make it into a shooter game... that is if you know Python, so modding religions sounds like an "easy" mod compared to that Cool

Some people have already started coming up with ideas for a SMAC mod for it Smile

Glad I could be of assistance. Smile

And Cartoon, you automatically win the game when you finish the spaceship in Civ IV. You don't have to wait till it reaches Alpha Centauri anymore. Wink

You guys are blaspemous for not trusting Sid Meier.

If you don't trust Sid with your life, you not worthy to play Civ! How can you doubt him!

Sid didn't really have much to do with the development of Civ IV, except to test the game and come with input from time to time...

I'm not following the scene for quite a number of years... So, usually, how early the groups have been releasing stuff, considering the release date? Just an average...

I would appreciate if flaming could be avoided.

Cheers.

dude seriously, go buy the game. Sid deserves the money for creating software that has lasted over a decade playability wise. If I could get my hands on CIV 1 I would play that right now, but I cant find a copy. So few games out there are made that deserve our money, this is one of them. If you wait for the scene to release the software your probably talking at the earliest thursday probably fri if not sat, scene has been slow for awhile. And dont say I wanna try it out and see if its good, cause there has never been a bad civ game by Sid and the reviews coming in by people at civ fanatics have been very good so far. Dont mean to go on a rant but when people dont buy software when the devs have earned it, its a shame.

games like this deserve to be bought, even if you whack on a no-cd crack and use the retail cd only once to install it. Its cheap compared to other games, and without showing support these brilliant games will die out and we will be left with just FPS and War Games which is what we are already bordering on.

No Civ3 was/is the best game ever made. Perhaps Civ4 will take that place now
