I'm new. I want play civ2MP online as fast as it's possible! ;-)

floyd · January 24, 2003, 19:27

Hi,

I'm new guy here and I've never played civ2 with human opponents. I desire it!

I'm not the best, not the worst. Usually I play on deity level.

greets,
floyd

Ming · January 24, 2003, 19:37

Usually... it helps if you post the times you can play. Since you are from Poland, it might be tough, because the majority of people here are in US time zones or Australian time zones... There are some European MP'ers, but not many...

But welcome and good luck.

War4ever · January 24, 2003, 19:54

yeah if you can fit us in your time slot, your more than welcome to give it a whirl..this group plays x2x1 deity raging, read Rah rules for more of a description, but there are many different types of games out there

ColdWizard · January 24, 2003, 20:20

floyd, i'm still responding to your pm, work always intrudes at the most inconvenient times

CapTVK · January 24, 2003, 20:23

I can spare a few hours for a fellow European this weekend. Just PM or use ICQ to contact me and I'll see when I'm available.

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 02:56

CapTVK , i didn't realize you were still playing ?

HappySunShine · January 25, 2003, 03:07

Why don't you go play a different game, it's obvious you're not cut out for civ2. In fact, candy land might be more your level judging by your post. Yes, you suck. No, nobody wants to play with a dumb newbie, because that's all you are. Now why don't you get off my forum while I'm still in a good mood? ****ing newbies.

Ming · January 25, 2003, 03:42

I see Happy is being his normal self

Most of the current groups are looking for new players.
As long as you don't quit when you are behind, you will be accepted

HappySunShine · January 25, 2003, 03:58

You can always tell a beginner when he says he plays on deity.

Ming · January 25, 2003, 04:21

Many people play that setting Happy. Especially if their past experience has been SP. You might have problems with that setting, but people do play it.

Not much, but once in a while you get that itch to have a go again

The game is going to start in about 15 min (11:00 CET). Any takers besides floyd?

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 05:49

too bad our timing is off....be fun to play with you

CapTVK · January 25, 2003, 05:55

War4ever,

I'm sure we'll get a chance on Civ2 MP someday...

Floyd,

If you're reading this, could you activate your ICQ? Much easier to contact you this way.

CapTVK · January 25, 2003, 05:59

Floyd,

I've noticed you've joined. Just select your Civ and we're off.

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 06:00

yeah, perhaps when i have some time off, either that or were going to play civ4

CapTVK · January 25, 2003, 06:09

Or Freeciv...

CapTVK · January 25, 2003, 06:58

Floyd had to install the patch first. We did get a test game running in the end. The real fun will start later today at 21:00-23:00 CET.

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 12:04

ah yes, freeciv is more likely

floyd · January 25, 2003, 13:11

I'm waiting 21:00 CET impatiently. ;-)

Special thanks to CapTVK for his support and kindness.

I'm not beginner in Civ2. I don't have experience in MP game only. I spent many, many hours playing Civ2 single on deity level. However, it doesn't mean I'm good opponent for you in MP. It's new experience for me and I will do my best. ;-)

greets,

Ming · January 25, 2003, 13:14

MP and SP are TOTALLY different games. Playing against somebody that actually thinks is a BIG DIFFERENCE. I hope you enjoy it.

Good luck.

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 13:17

yeah good luck, just remember to duck when the catapults start throwing their rocks....haha

and don't be discouraged, it takes a few games to make the adjustment...

too many braggarts have come through here stating they are deity gods, then they get their a$$es handed to them in their first mp game and we rarely hear from them again

Ming · January 25, 2003, 13:34

So true... it's amazing how much tougher it is. You start to realize just HOW STUPID the AI really is.

And it's far more fun beating up on somebody who can "feel the pain"

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 13:38

FEEL THE PAIN

yes, it keeps you on the edge of your seat in close games....the races for the wonders, the b!tching about land, the good or bad huts...

damm you get your icq phone hooked back up!!!!!

civ is best played over icq phone when were both having the odd pop

floyd · January 25, 2003, 13:39

I like Civ too much, than first and possibly another defeats don't discourage me.

I'm going learn, collect experiences... and back as a really hard player :-)

Defeats are the best lessons, I think.

I've lost fun playing SP. It's boring. I need sth new, such as MP.

greets,

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 13:46

smart man, welcome to the club, like heroin , its quite addicting....

sequel to trainspotting......civspotting

floyd · January 25, 2003, 13:53

More than MP defeat I'm afraid about my graduation in school

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 13:57

hehe don't succumb to the dark side, there is no turning back..

Ming · January 25, 2003, 14:00

Yes... I still find it addicting even though we have played for years. I still have that "one more turn" desire.

And good luck on school. Don't let a Civ addiction keep you from graduating

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 14:07

ming speaks wisely there.....

i only get the one more turn feeling in MP though, just for the record

floyd · January 25, 2003, 14:10

There's no really problem at the time. I've just passed my winter exams and have winter holiday.

But... hearing words like heroin, civspotting...

I remember this condition when Civ I and II appeared... And I'm really afraid about my summer semester because I'm sure I'll love MP.
