4.0 out of 5 stars Settlers IV Gold
This game is a must for any Setter's fan.

One draw back is there are no roads with drop off points (which can be a plus to others). This is a big deal to me... Because I loved Setters 2. The AI is not very good for the delivering of goods. You will find yourself waiting a long time on them.

The game can skip ahead by 1 min with the press of...

This game is a must for any Setter's fan.

One draw back is there are no roads with drop off points (which can be a plus to others). This is a big deal to me... Because I loved Setters 2. The AI is not very good for the delivering of goods. You will find yourself waiting a long time on them.

The game can skip ahead by 1 min with the press of F12. Press it to much and you will find yourself in battle.

Building in the game is also slow. It's not bad... Until you turn the AI to the max. You will find yourself not ready when the flood of 50+ level 2 or so units come knocking.

This leads to your army. If you don't have priests in your army... You are at a disadvantage. Also, stock piling weapons is a must. It takes a long time to mass produce an army large enough to take out the opposition. Even when you do have a stock pile of weapons and gold.

The animations in the game are (in my opinion) not as good as Settlers 2. However the graphics look great.

One of the great things about the Gold edition... Is that you get so much for your money. You have lots of pre-made missions for you and a new race. Along with a map editor for your creative side.

This game does work for Windows XP. I have service pack 2 installed and I also have a P4 with HT... Which from what I read on the Setters forum, makes the game unplayable. I have not patched the game either.

Despite all of these negatives. It really can't take away from this game. I had allot of fun and wasted allot of time. If you don't want to spend 2-3 hours per mission. Then stay away.
