Game Civilization World: multiplayer up to 200 people

One of the most popular strategies in the history of mankind will soon find a second life. Sid Meier told CNN in an interview how much importance he attaches to the development of the game Civilization World, which will be released this summer on Facebook.

Civilization World supports multiplayer mode with up to 200 players. This is the most natural format for Facebook, because every registered user already has a circle of friends from several hundred people there. The game will not be infinite, it will have a beginning and an end, after which you can start again on a new map.

Since players can not always be online, but the game should be carried out simultaneously for all, so I had to develop special methods of communication and messaging. In fact, this led to a fundamental change in game mechanics, so the Facebook version will clearly be different from the usual client.

The appearance of the game will also change, the developers are now experimenting with Flash and different browsers.

On the site 2K Games there used to be a registration form for participation in closed beta testing. Alpha testing in a small format has been going on since January 12, 2011.
