I love this game. I downloaded CivIII gold and it has a 1 hour time limit stop... does any one have a link or method of getting this m""f""ker to worK?
 
I have 4 new copies of that game. I keep getting them with video cards.
 
I loved part deux. Numero 3 is great, but I quit in that barbarian level where I have to pacify the village head... can't seem to get one of my pillars up. Damn see-sawing!
 
Wow, haven't played a good game of Civilization in ages...

"Our words are backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!" haha
 
Get the retail version. GoGamer.com has the Gold edition for $9.99; a great addtion to anyone's permanent game library.
 
I know all about the addiction! I think 2 had me more than 3, but 4 may set new presedent Nov 15th. But I heard they were going to do some major changes to corruption, and I haven't seen anything mentioned in either of the sites. But golly, it shore is perdy!

This is my third copy (gave others to friends), and I have never encountered a "time limit" in my retail versions unless you have set some of the rules yourself (ie. ironman mode).
 
there is no time limit in the retail versions, just a turn limit, as is the nature of the series

ah yes the turn limit, that's what I meant. I don't like that :(

well, you can still play past it if you want to, just for the fun of it

i wish they would have made it longer myself, in fact in Civ 4 they've made it slightly shorter, i wish they'd make it like 800-1,000 turns, heh, instead of 450
 
The CIV series is such a time sink, it's not funny. I love it because #3 is great on laptops, and you don't have to bring a mouse with you.
 
I told myself I could learn Civ 3 and get decent at it but it never happened. I am hoping that Civ 4 will work out for me. Is the new issue of PC Gamer out with the big Civ 4 preview?

I'm feel about the same way--I really wanted to give Civilization III a good try, but it always seemed so difficult to do. I really should give it another go, that and Rome: Total War and a few other games that I've gotten but never played a lot of.
 
I love Civ II and III. I hope in Civ 4 the computer wont cheat like it did in III, that gets kind of aggravating when you have a modern tank destroyed by a spearman....

Civilization isn't as hard to learn as some others like Rise of Nations etc...

I've been playing Civ since the first version came out on 5.25" floppies :p
 
I loved civ III but I liked Rise Of Nations even more, holy crap that game is addictive... I also loved how the ages went from liek ancient to modern and every house and stuff changed, I dont remember if Civ III had that too but I remember stuff changing when you like researched new vehicles and stuff, but I don't think the buildings did...
