Whereas we have customized maps and rules in civ2, why not have customized difficulty level? There are 4 basic parameters:Human player happiness: from settler level to diety level(maybe higher?) AI happiness: same as above AI production handicap: 50%/100%/150%/200% of shield required to build a unit/wonder AI barbarian resistance: 50%/100%/150%/200% of comabat value of unit when against barbarians There could be more in the list but the ideas are similar. This way the game could be a lot more versatile where we could tune the difficulty to learn to play better and quicker. |

Not bad. You could also include how many techs you/AI start with Also number of settlers AI starts with.------------------

I like this idea a lot too. How many times I wanted to play the smartest AI without those annoying happiness handicaps. And in Call to Power, the AI intelligence was decent on impossible level, but always started with a ton of techs and settlers, on the lower level it started with less but was too stupid to even play against. With difficulty customization all these problems are solved ... this is a great idea!

In imperialism 2 you get to customize the difficulty level and in my experience it is great.
Should be in civ III (I wonder if I could customize difficulty levels that come whit my scenarios). |
