I've just received a mail from Infogrammes.

The game will be released in France at the beginning of the year 2002.
The Limited edition is not on their planning yet, but it could be released two or three months later.

I hoped that Infogrammes would release Civ 3 at about the same time everywhere. I must admit that I am a bit disappointed.

probably means we wont see it down under till late 2002 !!! I guess they release it first in USA to give those guys time to learn it before we get a chance so that they stand a chance of winning !!!!

No, but I can do so if you want. Just precise what exactly you want, I have not understood.

Transleted version??? I hope they only will translate the game into few languages (German, French, and other "big" languages), cuz I DO NOT want to see them make the same mistake as Blue Byte did...Make the game The Settlers IV only avaliable in Danish in Denmark...I just can't play a game translated into danish without going nuts within 2 minutes...They did it to my favorite RTS game, please don't do that to my favorite TBS game!!!

almost certianly there will be translated versions of the game(interface, all the texts in the game, manual, etc): french, german at least

and one translated into Australian too ????

I would rather play the game in English than my native German because game translations usually suck. We don't need another "All your base are belong to us" game. I can buy it in November when I go to the US now that it's officially going to be out in October

I guess people like myself, who live in Sweden and other european countries could order the game online and recieve it faster. At least that's what I'm going to do.

How bout if the "speech samples" (presuming there are some) are translated. That is to say its still in English but with stereotypical accents that Americans think we have.

Americans impersonations of the English accent is hysterical. "Aw'rite gawv'ner" being the most popular. Their German interpretations are damn funny too. Pure class they are.....

Anywho, If my idea is taken seriously I will be forced to delete all the soundfiles.
