I've heard three basic opinions on the subject:
1. It sucks.
2. It's pretty good with some expansion pack or after X number of patches.
3. Nah, it still sucks, go back to Civilization 2.
At a glance the game seems like Civ 2 without the stupid "I disagree, your excellency." Renfaire actors, but with the one thing I always thought these games desperately needed: national borders. Can someone explain, in 50 words or more:
1. Why the game sucks out of box.
2. Whether or not the patch fixes this and whether or not I'd need to purchase some sort of expansion pack.
At least the version that shipped out was broken. Any game that allows their 5 archers to totally fuck up my battelship is clearly not working correctly and gets an F-. That was what made MOO2 such a great game: if you got way ahead in the tech tree, your star destroyers literally could not be touched by their (psht) laser beams. Civ3, there was basically no point in building expensive units besides the initial satisfction of seeing them attack something... which quickly turned into horror and disgust upon the realization that a goddamn sherman tank can't beat 10 swordsmen. A lot of cheap units beats a smaller number of strong units every time. Negative!
P.S. I never found corruption to be that big a deal. There are several ways to handle it, and I guess it didn't bother me. |
