It's not down; it says:

>
> Due to a disk array failure on freeciv.org's most important
machine,
> many Freeciv services, including the metaserver, game ranking, are
out

on

at
> alkar.net on the zhaba.alkar.net server.
Please give them some time to make repairs.

Re: Freeciv gone ?

Yes, I've noticed. Prior to march the 3rd I was not able to connect to
www.freeciv.org. A traceroute went untill a router of sony and I'd figured
some network configuration or hosting-problem would be the troublemaker.
I was wondering what the problem was and since the site was down, I
figured that someone on freshmeat would have an answer.
The site is up now and I was able to get the latest and greatest
freeciv-client and play this wonderfull game with my friends. Thanks!

Patch to make AI easier to defeat
by Sam Trenholme - Mar 13th 2003 16:26:26
Since people have been complaining that the AI is too difficult to defeat,
I have implemented a patch which causes the AI to only very slowly get
tech. This makes the game fun for people who are not intimately aware of
how to as quickly as possible develop technology for FreeCiv.
The patch is here

Miscategorization
by Ian Clarke - Nov 9th 2002 21:20:47
This game is not "Real-time Strategy" - it is "Turn Based
Strategy", the two are mutually exclusive.

What do you mean? In Freeciv, human-to-human play is real-time - although
turns still exist - while playing against the AI is turn-based.
In DMOZ, Freeciv was recently *removed* from the turn-based strategy games
section. I don't believe in categorization systems, but feel free to put
it back in.

great game! some quibbles...
by Ben Crowell - May 23rd 2002 20:41:02
I gave up on the commercial series after Call to Power turned out to be so
horrible. This is really an enjoyable game. Seems bug-free! My only
complaints are that the server is hard to use, and it would be nice to have
documentation on what features are missing, e.g., I didn't understand at
first that diplomacy wasn't implemented, and thought I just was stupid for
not being able to figure out how to do it.

freeciv rocks
by Randolf Rotta - Oct 24th 2001 17:19:19
for me freeciv is one of the most undefeatable games on earth.
hundret times better than the original and this even without
sound and tons of prerendered videos.
(no one needs this really for playing)
and in german:
einfach Geil!

Download it... NOW!
by WindozeSux - Oct 18th 1999 23:30:29
Strategy fans, prepare to dump Windoze from your hard disk. Download that
little Freeciv tarball and you'll never look back. :-) And look at it this
way: it converted me, a die-hard real time strategy gamer, into a
Civilization fan. That's pretty powerful stuff.

But what a good game man...

FreeCiv rocks...
by Ray Cast - Apr 20th 1999 11:33:30
Especially playing the GTK-Client at 1280x1024 *g*
I can't wait for diplomacy, but it's damn difficult to play already,
even in easy mode.
FreeCiv's AI is ten times better than MicroProse's.
