Default Re: Is SEIV going the way of the dodo?

Kana:
Install size or size on disk is not the issue at all... The issue is having to transfer around dozens of megabytes per turn. It doesn't matter whether you use PBEM or TCP/IP (aka Civ4's pitboss), the sheer amount of data to transfer is staggering. Civ4 can't hardly compare for game file sizes anyways... It has no combat system to speak of, just some comparisons of strength numbers.

PvK:
I certainly hope an entire combat can't be regenerated just by sending a few random seeds...
