A single left-click moves your units and this leads to a lot of inadvertent movement. It is somehow an unnatural way of moving units and doesn't feel right at least to people familiar with other Civ games. There is an option to use right-click mouse mode and people report that this is much easier, but I did manage to get used to left-clicking. Which leads me to the part that I somehow do not want to write about: the way this game feels.

It is impossible to describe but the initial two Civilization games as well as SMAC had a very certain feel to them, a feel of excellence. Somehow, that same feel is not in Civ:CTP. Now, I played several betas and they were a bit flawed if not terribly different from the final version and this could possibly have affected my judgment. It is as if the answer to my initial question of whether the Civilization name would survive the shift away from the two gaming gurus of Meier and Reynolds must be a "no, it could not".

This game is still a very good one, and worthy of your money if you still want to build and conquer the world. But the shoes Civ:CTP tried to fill were indeed huge, and the outcome is a good game that simply does not have it , whatever it is. This is a game that with the right support and maybe an update of the unit abilities could be great, but it is not currently on the same level as Civilization and Civilization 2 or maybe even Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

For most games that sort of praise is out of reach by miles and for Civ:CTP to have come as close as I believe it did is no small feat and shows what a good game it could actually be.

Thx for the game, work great but i can't patch it Once again work great, no music, and a soft crach if i pick the library, but the rest work fine.

Get the CD version and patch for the best game play. Be aware the DVD edition cannot be upgraded to the latest patch and is stuck on version 1.

This means no hotseat play, a number of unfixed bugs and lack of gameplay tweaks included in the 1. They in are x standard DVD resolution.

Still better than the x in the CD version, but not HD by any means. The DVD edition also includes two extra music tracks and concept art book. Alexz80 -2 points Windows version.

RIP version has quite a few bugs, such as kicking you out of the game if you access the library.

ISO version doesn't work at all. The DVD version works decently though, expect for some minor glitches. Great game, owned this as a kid and it's so cool to be able to play it again. Simon 5 points. I manager to install perfectly but when I click play, the games says that I need the CD.

But I remember that both CTP and CTP2 were plagued with a nasty memory leak that forced you to reload the game -- frequently -- to clear up large blocks of misallocated RAM and virtual memory, as well as the grindingly-slow response after taking more than a few turns in a large empire without restarting.

I don't know if it was just bad memory management or poor processor threading, but I never could finish a game due to those two problems the memory leak and slow response and I had a top-of-the-line system, back then.

I get an error every time that I use help.

The only problem is the terrain improvement farm, mines, etc was not available, and we can't do anything, so i had to quit shortly after. I still will look for a good and working version in the net y thanks for the memories.

Ghoulabc 1 point. CTP lovor 3 points Windows version. I am running Windows 7 and downloaded the rip version game plus the patch. The game runs fine but has anyone else had problems installing the patch? I keep getting an error message saying it is not detecting the required version on my machine.

I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if they have found a fix for it. Downloaded the rip version also have no idea what the different versions indicate, as another comment says but it seems to work! We'll see how it stands the test of time, but I've been able to build two cities so far.

Could not compete with the marketing and legal department of Firaxis but matched or exceeded them in many other aspects.

It expanded the game in ways Firaxis has failed to do in 14 years since. But hey, they made lotsa money!!!!! Pacman -2 points Mac version. Great game.

Developer's Description By Activision. This update has been created as a way of thanking everyone who helped make Civilization: Call to Power such a success. It will upgrade Call to Power from the release version or version 1.

New features include hot seat play, play-by-e-mail, a scenario pack interface, new scenario options, and additional improvements and bug fixes. If upgrading from 1. Full Specifications. What's new in version 1. Release November 8, It makes sense that a warrior with and archer behind him will have an advantage of two warriors.

Unfortunately while creating this system they ignored the real reason that Civ 2 incorporated an expanded combat system to start with - to avoid unreasonable combat results.

Over and over again I watched as my advanced combat units, a team of three Fusion Tanks for example, lost battles to a well-mixed group of Calvary and Cannons.

The situation is much worse than that of the original Civilization when such losses were a random fluke. In Call to Power these ridiculous results happen again and again. It doesn't take long before you realize that your march towards technology really doesn't matter a hill of beans in the long run. Those cool new units you've been trying to grab hold of really aren't all that much better than the crummy old units you had before.

So what's the other problem? Some of the new units are really, really, really irritating and ruin the entire feel of the game. The two worst offenders here are the Lawyer and the Corporate Branch. The lawyer, who is available fairly early in the game, can file an injunction against a city it's standing next to. This power causes your city's production to come to a grinding halt.

Worse still, this isn't a one-time power - the lawyer can keep filing injunctions every turn until he's discovered. The Corporate Branch is even worse. By using his franchise ability, a Corporate Branch forces your city to send a percentage of its production to an enemy.

The only way to undo the franchise is to send out one of your own lawyers to sue the city under its control. Once the computer-controlled players get control over these two units, you can hang up any semblance of a good strategic wargame. Your cities will be stripped of their ability to produce and you'll be caught in an eternal war of paperwork. In order to make these units even more annoying, they're only seen by certain other units. What this means in gameplay turns is that you must constantly have a spy, a lawyer and several other units wander around looking for these invisible invading forces that can stop you dead in your tracks.

If you're like me, it won't take you but two or three weeks of blind wandering before you decide that it's simply not worth the effort. And keep in mind, these are only two of many such units that I've singled out. Other offenders include Slavers who steal away your citizens, Spies who steal your technology, Cyber Ninjas that can blow up your nuclear plants and Televangelists who can actually covert your entire city!

So why not create a bunch of different specialty units yourself and leave them parked in your city in order to spot such incursions before they happen? Because each city, for some inexplicable reason, can only hold nine units at a time. You know, just like in real life - a city full of lawyers and businessmen can't possibly hold a spy or any tanks There's actually a lot more that wrong with Call to Power like the fact that regular ships can tear up the undersea mines it took you an entire game to learn how to build , but it can all be summed up in one term - poor game mechanics.

It's almost as if this game wasn't play tested at all. Did they actually enjoy the fact that a third world nation could grind a techno-power to a halt by setting up a bunch of franchises? Somehow I just don't think so.

Bottom line? If you're a fan of the Civilization series you should stay as far away from this title as possible because it will almost certainly enrage you after a few hours of play. If you haven't played the original titles, go pick 'em up. Contact: , done in 0.
