What is your favourite Version of Civ - Page 3

I've really enjoyed the PBEMs I've played in both c3c and civ4.

The major difference is I prefer C3C for SG's and SP games but MP (pitboss rocks!!) in civ4.
I found it really difficult to manage a large empire (flying screens

in the civ4 SG's I've played in and communications even more onerous.

Civ 2 got me hooked. Civ 3 proved that I could handle the civ universe in an ok manner.

Civ 4 could have been interesting, but my computer is fucked, so I dunno (only played a handful of games on my desktop till it "broke down")

Civ1 I also had much fun with - but unlike civ2 I seldom go back to play it.

I haven't played Civ II in months, perhaps years. That was the game that got me hooked (I can not tell you how long I played that game since I was ten), and I still would like to play it. But I'm cutoff from my CD; college and stuff.

I love Civ III, and Civ IV is great as well. So I can't vote in the poll.

I never really played Civ I. I played one game once and thought it was cute; I can see how it started the sensation.

I like the micromanament in civ3 better.

This would actually be my reason for voting for Civ4. I like the diplo much better than 3, and I like the MP better as well.

Civ3 for me

Well, Civ3 has got as many votes as Civ4 at present. That's food for thought. Normally when a new version comes out, you'd expect that at least the majority would favour the new game. Clearly they've disappointed a lot of Civ-fans.

We're getting old and conservative. I guess that we didn't get an influx of new members when civ4 was released, compared to some other site (at least when civ3 was released). Like I said it's pretty much been civ4 for me, but I was getting tired of civ3 anyway. Still, I like colonization better. But compared to the raving reviews I'm still a bit disappointed in civ4. I think I need to play more multiplayer, but I'm getting tired of civ4 as well so that's not really going to work.

Time for civ5.

I remember a thread where Matrix feared that CDZ may lose its soul through a massive influx of members with Civ4. Well, nothing of that at all.

I was also getting tired of Civ3 and its old engine, and Civ4 managed to start things anew pretty well for me.

I also need more mutliplayer, I haven't even scratched the surface of MP with Civ4.

If you need more multiplayer, feel free to challenge me!

Voted Civ III because of gut feel and it is what I've been playing most in the past weeks (essentialy completing all Conquests on Emperor level which is some kind of challenge). I guess Civ IV is the better game but still many people seem to have troubles running it unless they invets in new HW and another guess is this means the community for PBEMs is much smaller as it was with III.
