It's ok Mark, no Sid did not kill my dog, but he drove me to kill my cat. J/K
After playing the game for a month, and finding new and disappointing things about it each and every time I played, I began to grow frustrated with it.
The topper was that stupid face the Military adviser makes whenever one of your cities falls.
In my case, I had betten the Brits back to 12 cities, and out of now where came massive amounts of british spear chuckers and despite my city defenses, (Tanks - Riflemen) they took the cities with no losses. That realy angered me, but when they would took 15 or so of my cities in one turn, I lost it. The game came out of the cd tray, and went strait into the "Give To Good Will" draw. I uninstalled the game, and went down and bought Empire Earth. (EE is a nice game so far.)
Even with the Civ3 editor, patched, the game still was not right. I loved the AI, and the diplomacy of the game, and would consider them to be top notch if not for the games lack of user control and customizability. Hell, Aaron is only one guy, and his game has nearly everything one could want, so why couldn't the hardend team at Civ3 produce a game to rock all games?
Civ3 was a major dissapointment to me, and I felt that it was something that people should know before they bought it. From the Posts in this thread, those who have the game, it would appear that I was not alone in my frustration with this game.
If you like, then I am very happy for you. Please accept that I was not happy with it, and chose to voice my opinion as such.
And welcome to the board.
