Who designed this thing? The planners of this game eneed to go look the word "novice" up in a dictionary. I play a game on "Novice" and I get treated like an expert. Seriously, is FreeCiv some sort of stealth AI psyops operation? To discover any and all weakneses of the human race's intellectual defensive capabilities, before the robots take over and bomb humans into oblivion? Getting the shit kicked out of you time after time is not fun, it's an exercise in frustration. I expect a bunch of you wonks might reply with the same old beginner-strategy tips, but befroe you do, just answer me this: do you actually play and win FreeCiv at a level above novice? Are there documented evidences of this? I'm sorry, but playing a GAME is supposed to be FUN, it's a GAME for crying out loud. And the AI seems to just skip whole genrations of reasearch and come up with 20th century discoveries in the early hundreds AD. My research is taking FOREVER, even with well-managed cities.

It bounces back from just about any strategy you present to it. The gameplay in FC is so unbalanced - the AI is a freaking death-dealing machine. But after playing, and losing mercilessly, FreeCiv, even on Novice, I have to say that whoever configured this game has no familiarity with what made Sid Myers' game great.
