Civ Maker

So I always wanted this feature in every civilization. To build my own Civs, like the Trojans and have a cool navy blue. To pick my own colors and name, add traits that exactly fit my personality and playstyle.

So the point is do other people want this, if they do what do they want in it and how can it be implemented.

Are you talking about the Civilization games. I did not know they were designed by 2K, are they?

I was thinking of a way to make your own civilization at the begining of a new game instead of picking an existing one. It would be intresting to truly write a unqiue history for your own custom civs. Example I enter a singleplayer, then go to new custom game, then where you would choose your civilization and leader I could pick Custom Civilization and it would jump me to a screen where i can choose my Civs name, color, regional theme, traits, add a leader (with custom the same), and put together a flag. Then add or maybe even save it for later use then begin the game.

They're designed by Fraxis, but these are the official forums for the civ games to my knowledge.

Once the Civ V website is up they will likely hold the offical forums.

Empire Earth has that feature, though it would be awesome if Civilization did it. I always named my country Atlantis in that game lol.

These are the official forums for Civ5. Fireaxis is the developer while 2k Games is the publisher. They'll be the ones responsible for distribution, marketing, and all that fun stuff.

I always wanted to be able to play as a city. Say you choose Spain as Civ. Then there would be a check box that says, play as independent city, and then you would be able to select one of the spanish cities in a drop-down menu.

And this concept would also translate in-game. When you grant independence to a region, it shouldn't pop up with the same name as the motherciv. It should be renamed after the new capital instead. If you f.ex. grant Barcelona independence, they could take on the identity of Barcelonians.

They could also add some generic leader heads, that would work with any civ. That might be a hazzle though.
