ok i know that there are bugs in the game. nut do you know a game without bugs. It a GAME it isnt life. take it easy and just play the game and have fun! And if you cant have fun because of the bugs, that is a shame. but change it then. you are all notepadgenius so what are you waiting for? i like the game because it is a civ game, turn-based and fun. look i buy game with the worst graphic and games full of bugs only because it is a civ game, turn-based and fun. so chill out and have fun

ok iam too waiting for patch 1.2 and hoping it is better. but we are talking about call to power II (the game that game orginally from sid meier`s civilization)

Iam not a notepad genious. can i complain now? I think the point is we bought the game and shouldnt have to fix it for them. If you bought a car from me wouldnt you complain if you had to spend alot of time and money on it to fix it if I told you it ran great? Activison said it was QA tested alot and ran great. its not running great for alot of people and the bugs that are there they said wouldnt appear but did. we have a right to gripe.

Lets face it - the AI is totally substandard. Unless you die early, you can't lose.

Maybe activision will come up with a racing game next. And the other cars can't get their engines started. What fun.

but do you have fun playing the games or not? that is the point isnt it? i know that the AI is substanderd but let the guys at activision work on that. if the would have delayed the game you would be mad about that because it is taking too long and now it is here because we wanted it now.

Noooo.... I'm mad becuase I have yet to get confrimation from Activision that they plan (or even acknowledge) the weak AI.

Trust me, if they say they are fixing it, I'll be cool. I'm just trying to find out if 1.11 is as far as it goes.

The bugs don't bother me much. They can be fixed and can be expected.

The weak AI is my problem. THat is not a bug, but shoddy work.

Um, Bushido, you don't happen to walk around on all fours and have a white fleece, do you?

Did you ever consider the fact that maybe we can't enjoy this game very much because of weak AI?

Did you ever consider the fact that we, as Civ players with an almost perfect knowledge (in economic terms) of the TBS market, are right to complain when the TBS genre is being sold out in the name of making extra bucks just in time for Christmas 2000?

And, did you ever consider the fact that some of us just aren't happy editing things in Notepad and feel Activision should do this officially for us. After all, some of us have to actually work, and don't have time to work as a beta testing team for Activision.

I'm mad because I invest 3 days into a game to have it crash on a bug. Reload crash reload crash, at the same point in the turn. Game over ..... After the third time thats about 9 day of playing wasted yet to finish a game, never get past battle ships. spys or facists crash the game by one of the computer ai players. That is a lot of fun.
