Main Menu
In this screenshot the Main Menu can be seen. I have tried to read the options at the picture, and this is what I think it says:

Start a New Game
Quick Start
Play a Scenario
Load a Saved Game
View the Credits
Exit

I’m quite sure about this list, but if you think it says anything different feel free to say so. I’m not sure if it is a ‘the’ between ‘View’ and ‘Credits’, but it is something there. I’m also not sure about Start a New Game, but science it seems to be something there and all other options has ‘a’ in them I added it.

I hope this ‘Quick Start’ option is Predefined games, but it may be some ‘start with default settings’ option also.

Well that sounds exactly the same as the menu off Civ2...

I don't think it was. I think that is the SMACRAP menu.

No, where's the multiplayer option or the hall of fame? They better have LAN multiplayer in Civ III. In fact if they don't I'm not too sure if I would even buy the game. So maybe I still would buy the game, but I would be very dissapointed.

i think "Start a new game" is like Customize world, and "Quickstart" is like "start a new game", whereas the latter makes a random map without input from the user.

I DONT SEE ANY MULTIPLAYER?!?!?

(prays its under one of the start games)

And I'll stand right behind you UberKrux and just laugh.

If that does happen it better happen real soon after Civ3 is released. I'm not talking about 2 years later either, I'm talking about at the most 2 months later. That multiplayer better be pretty damn good if I'm to spend another $30-$40.

I reckon that quick start might be like the option in worms armaggedon, you just click it and it takes you straight into a game, which is a very cool option to have. The more complex option might possibly be something like this (it proberly won't be, but i'm guessing):

-Single Player
-Civilization Options (choosing civ-specific units, your civ ect.)
-Music & Sound Options (Selecting sound and music volume)
-Edit Map (Creating your own map/scenario)
-AI Options (Setting AI Civilizations and options)
-Other Settings (Anything i've missed out)
-Start The Game (Applies all the obove settings and launches)

-Multiplayer
-Hotseat
-Internet
-Options

The more advanced option should allow the game to be very customizable.
