The one I got before that had no automated settlers

More like the settler/worker concept is just realy good.. i increases the difficulty somewhat..

Not to talk about the resources.. both strategic and luxury..
If you can put your hands on 5-6 luxury, and just get market-pace goings, you'r in for a good game... Corruption is what's needed to hold you back, just enough..

Check if you had latest update installed.

I never thought of Sid Meyer as the best designer in the bussiness. He makes good games for sure but he was very late to jump on certain new developments and somehow all him games lack basic features i would want in them. Multiplayer is one thing Sid has never been able to get right, graphics is another. In Civ the borders not being added until the third edition is bad. I wont say his reputation is completely undeserved but he is overrated.

the BEST improvement must be the fact that you can get you workers in AUTO-mode if you and in for an easy game and don't feel like micro everything..

Nah.. i must say, i concider every cent i spend on civ3 serie well invested.. costed me little over 100€ until now, but man.. all the fan-addons from civfanatics REALY gives you a new game every week!

Oh.. saw Civ for mobil under development.. i guess me and Kosta will get them for our Moto A925's once it's finished

AUTO-mode is the worst thing! Play at higher difficulties and you will see how important is to control workers by yourself, or to pick an excelent spot to build a city!
I don't use AUTO-mode even when I have more than 100 workers! - yes you heard well one hundred workers!

[Rogue]

I never used auto workers either, as mostly I like to get some things done first. But in Civ3 I used command to build road and then improve land or make a colony. It's nice addition!

[The Settler]

Auto worker is no good if youre not a skull above the other. When there is thight games and youre not the biggest or best civ, you should control the workers yourself. The corruption is maybe high, but if you think of the realism in the game vs. the real world, then you will se that corruption is a big problem when having large areas to control.

Civ II is the best, as far as I'm concerned. It has better graphics and gameplay than the original, and it plays much better than the third installment.

[Chef Boyardee]

Eh, I kinda like Civilization III although I never really played the others. I think it's got great gameplay, great graphics, and just about everything is great. Except for me, I'm pretty awful at it.
