Well I got it to work. I had reinstalled the drivers and the game once already, and then did it again. It worked on the second reinstall... The only thing I can think of is it didnt uninstall the previous driver fully. Its working now, with the performance I would expect out of a 64 MB card.
My first impressions are that it isnt drastically different than III, but the early game is much much slower. Im still getting used to the interface. |

Mine is working as well... I played thru the Tutorial sucessfully and I have a crappy computer 1GHZ and everything seemed fine with the exception of the music track was a bit choppy at first.

The video bugs are grown exponential last night! Let's hope they are all related and are gone when the (first) patch arrives.
Thank god I have no ATI card! But then again, plenty of NVidia cardholders have wonder movie crashes and XML error pop-ups... This is a copy of the PTW release! Anyone remembers that nightmare? |

Nope, looking good so far.
192.81KB I'm actually really surprised how smoothly it runs at 1600*1200. Not bad. |

In 600AD right now and it really is a different animal compared to Civ III. Choose continents as maptype only to find out I'm on my own continent so only barbaction so far. Just learning the game mechanics.
O, skip suicide gallies.
