[quote who="GFireflyE" reply="15" id="3190361"] I'm going to copy & paste comments I made to the sovreign in another post.....generates more conversation. Quoting Malsqueek, reply 1I agree that the Sovereigns need to be better indicated as "more" than their champion counterparts. Otherwise, why don't we have 35 factions? These sovereigns are world-benders for a reason. I agree that a large portion of the solution lies in how they handle

[quote who="Kongdej" reply="133" id="3120173"]Quoting Lantros, reply 131@admkiza First, we talk about a genre here. We talk about a 4X Game. Not only that, we talk about a turnbased game. We don´t talk about MP overall. And here are some numbers from frogboy about your so called "backbone" for this genre. Now, that said, someone asked for some numbers. Here are some facts that help provide some context to the discussion. 77% of the Demigod user bas

[quote who="Pappy_Van_Winkle" reply="101" id="3064520"] MP'ers are just rude by nature I guess. After reading this thread it reminds me of the rudeness of MP game chat lobbys I have seen in CIV and others. This type of behavior is exactly why I would rather play SP. Sometimes I think MP'ers wish for MP games just so they can show their ass to everyone, every chance they get. Why ruin a good game just so the MP'ers can have their day in game chats? I have been follo

[quote who="ddd888" reply="90" id="3060684"]Quoting Frogboy, reply 16 At GDC, friends of my from Firaxis told me that only around 4% of the Civilization IV user base had ever played a single MP game (not finished a game, simply tried it). that doesnt high tbh also do you know games in this century are like "parfumes" ? i know LOTS of ppl who buy DOZENS of games on steam or get

[quote who="Luke_strider" reply="88" id="3060449"]Quoting Bellack, reply 64 Ok why would you have to rewrite TC if you had two players fighting? All the rules and such should be the same as if you were playing the NPC. And personally the MP expereance should be excatly the same as SP. No short cuts to make it faster for the ADD kids I would like the full SP game in the MP. When they are talking about having to rewrite TC for MP, they are not talking about re-designing it.&nbsp

[quote who="Murteas" reply="57" id="3058768"]I really fail to see the "I didn't get what was promised" argument. You may not have liked the MP in EWoM, but it was there. So you were never lied to. FE was never sold to you as guaranteed to have MP, in fact as has been pointed out, Frogboy announced that MP was in jeopardy months ago and most of the people responded that they wanted him to focus on SP over MP. I would love to play with other

[quote who="StevenAus" reply="26" id="3058222"]I agree with a lot of your points, but the way I see it, nobody and no company is perfect. Stardock has been trying to make the best replacement they can for the failed WoM and if that means that the initial release has to come without MP, I understand. Especially since many are getting FE and possibly the next Elemental title for free/no additional cost. And as you can see from Frogboy's responses, they have already put a l

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="14" id="3058155"]If I may be a bit more constructive, I can understand the disappointment even though I don't share it. So, how about you folks that deeply care for multiplayer start a petition somewhere, and post a link on these forums? Or how about SD themselves put one up somewhere. Really, anything to give a more concrete number that shows how many actually think the game depends on multiplayer support. [/quote] Hi, can&

I'm not sure about Stardock however the free FE for early wom gamers that had to play very buggy versions gains them alot of respect IMO (i'm not getting the free FE version). I played warcraft 2 , warcraft 3 and its expansion frozen throne with friends during LANs and such whenever we weren't playing soccer and football, so i hope at some point multiplayer can be built up a littler more but I understand the reasons why its not a big priority.</
