CGW tonight in the pipeline said Civ 4 2005. No month listed, there-for I will say late 2005 like Nov, 30th, and was that the date 3 years ago when Civ 3 was release?

Hope you are wrong. I'm not even going to speculate on a MOO4.

The game ends at 2100? That would be time enough to go up to Civ XXVIII.

This thread is quite irrelevant now, considering we KNOW that Civ IV will be released

All I was doing was mapping the world. And then these bellicose people acted strangely. I do not think there is much information on the next CIV.

Does anyone remember Sid Meiers Pirates, If so I would like to see that title remade with all of the new technology of todays computers. But Civ IV would be a great addition to the video game library as well. Has there even been a new Pirates other than Pirates Gold edition 10 years ago.

It's such a waste to spend time to renew games that might have been nice in those days, but are in fact more a desire for nostalgical reasons.

Spend every hour and every buck on cIV and I'll be a happy man. I'll most obviously buy the game and 2 or 3 expansion packs. Suck every dime out of me Firaxis

It takes time to create a new Civ game. A release in Q1/2006 is already difficult. To my knowledge they haven't started/decided yet and it is already July 2004 so....

What about other Firaxis games?
Surely they didn't spend 5 years simply adding new graphics to CivII...

Computer Gaming World still has it 2005 in release game section. I just think it will be around Nov 05, just like Civ 3 was release in Nov of 01.

Was originally started by Microprose IIRC, then later taken over by Firaxis.
I'm not sure of the dates though.

So that means it's still in development, and has lots of room for improvements.
