What will you do now that the patch is out?
Hmm...I'll probably be playing your scenarios or mods.

What about you?

Now? Nothing. The patch is not out yet, only the readme.

I've actually been playing hella lot of WarCraft III

The game is fantastic. The replay function which lets you to review your game and watch where you went wrong (or where your opponent went right) is fantastic. The amazing thing is, the replay files are small. 50k for short 1 v 1 games, to 300 - 400 k for longer games with more players. It makes it easy to manage them, send them or whatnot. I'm collecting a library of replays that will eventually be the backbone of my "Art of War" tactical and strategic archive.

Anyways,

I will come around to Civ III sometime. Both WarCraft III and Civ III are what I refer to as long-term games. That is, I am under no time pressure to play or finish them. I suspect Civ III will continue to be a staple game for me well into the next year and beyond.

I haven't tried the replay yet (Just got the game today), but I guess it's no use right now, since I always know what I do wrong, the bad thing is just, I kinda forget to do it right in the next game

But the game is great

Anyway, back to topic...When the patch comes out, I properly wont do anything special, just play some Warcraft3, or try to finnish my Civ3 game (Still not around the industrial days)...

I cheated. I voted for play warcraftIII but I wont actually play it until I build my next PC in Aug (in my new house). By the time PTw comes out I'll be ready to play again.

I'll likely start testing out multiplayer strats on the unsuspecting AIs.
