Anyone else wish that...

...all combat animations were as fast as when barbarians attack your warriors?

Especially online when you've got a lot of units to attack with. It's especially annoying when you cause an overrun but the fleeing units get stuck, running on the spot, and you have to kill every last one of them while the timer ticks away.

There should definitely be a "fast combat animations" option, and it should be on by default (and probably unchangeble for synch reasons) for MP games.

Just a thought...

Nah, I like watching the battles. It's part of the fun. But that's true that since the games take so long maybe they could have been a little shorter in some cases. Still, it's more the time I waste waiting for people than watching battles.

I wish I did not have to see another civ, launch space ship parts. What do I care if they are trying to win by the space race. It's not my ship.

I do agree...Bombers need to improve their aim

Part of the problem waiting for people is that if they have a lot of units to move around, especially on roads, then you have to wait as the screen zooms in on each unit and follows their movement along the road, and the animation that goes with each one. A lot of the problem with waiting for people on line is that they may have a lot of units spread out across the map, and the game zooms in on each one. Turns would be much quicker if it just immediately zoomed to a unit without scrolling across the whole map.
