For those who missed it on the main page, 4.0 is out. I can't wait to get home and install it.

Let's see if that missle fix actually works this time. After all, it was supposed to be fixed in version 3. |

I downloaded it and started a game. That was about it, but at least V4.0 does start correctly. The new landmark looks cool. |

Yes!!! I think my feelings on this matter would best be described in a monolouge from "Ferris Buellor's Day Off": "I heard that you were feeling ill; Headache, fever, and a chill! I came to help restore your pluck, 'Cause I'm the nurse that likes to (door slammed)"

Last night (about 8:30 am Baltimore time) I was watching the official site when the notice went up, but the link seemed not to have formed yet, so I occasionally refreshed the page until it did.I wanted to be the first to say that it was official, but on second thoughts what would that achieve, since several messages had been posted for days pointing to the location, and you all would see Firaxis's announcement before you got to the Forums anyway. Besides, maybe my page had simply not refreshed accurately and it had been up longer than I thought. (Concentration on marking and examiners' meetings can make one miss notices for a day or two.) Now to something irrelevant. Missile range didn't affect my latest PK episode, when near neighbor (less than ten squares away) Deirdre silently decided to launch four or five missiles at my bases and invade. Guess I was FM too long; now to teach her a salutary lesson.

Anyone know if V4.0 includes V3.0 and V2.0? I am installing SMAC on a faster PC this weekend and need to know if I need to apply all 3 patches or just V4.0. |

Does it really fix the missile bug, along with Space Elevator & Self-Aware Colony (downloaded it, but currently game not that point yet) (ooga ooga) |

Just a warning. It'll up your load times. |
