Author Topic:   CIV3: THE MASTER LIST (v1.0)--To Be Mailed Directly to Brian on June 27th

As you might know, I've called upon all of you to help me put together an on-going list for the Firaxis team. This represents a wonderful opportunity for us to impact the development of Civ3, and Brian expressly asked that we give him one big list periodically updated rather than a bunch of rapid-fire smaller ones (which tend to "get lost").
I am currently seeking "Thread Experts" to head threads dedicated to certain topics, like CIV 3: COMBAT, for example. These experts will help guide the discussion in that thread, keep it focused, prioritize it and help me put it here in the MASTER LIST. Thus, if all goes as planned, we will have several threads looking at specific issues all in turn coming together in this list here that will be sent to Brian on a regular basis as it develops.
Thus, there is nothing on this list as of today, but, with your help, it will soon be rather long and hopefully a great (clear) indication to the Firaxis team of what we want.
Please e-mail me if you are interested in becoming a thread expert. I really need people who love this game to help me put all this together. You will, of course, be given all the credit. I'm just doing the grunt work. Thanks!

I nominate Harlan for "Game Addictiveness"
His April 21 post "What's wrong with CtP" could have been said to some extent about SMAC. He captured exactly what so many of us loved about CivII and miss in these two wannabees.

Yin, I'd be happy to help on a combat modeling thread, if you still need help.
I think combat needs to be more like combat in checkers...
Seriously I can prioritize with the best of them.

Hey Yin, make sure they get the message to take their time and do it right. I would rather have to wait an extra 3-6 months, maybe longer if I had to, to get a great AI, lots of new concepts, and such, than to get the game earlier and have it being just another civ clone with a few extra whistles and bells.
