O God what have I unleashed? :lol:

Until then, your 644 (322 on 100 pop) is tops against 5 humans. And I BET NO ONE BREAKS IT. EVER.


My AI just smashed that record:

;)

As a serious side note, don't play *too* well. The game can't cope with scores over about 2,147; if you go over that you'll then end up with a negative score...

I'm rather sure I can nab 6 humans to play with my absurd settings and score higher. If you note, the last place person scored way more than 644 :P

I remember that game!

I had only owned the game for about 10 days at that point.

sorry to break it to ya, but not even your cpu beat my score:

1714 : 1500pop= a ratio of 1,14

my score was 644 : 200pop= 3,22

1500 : 200 = 7,5 to 1

meaning that if my score had been in a 1500 pop game, it would (basically) be 644 x 7,5 = 4830!

Whereas your score, if translated to my ratio would be: 1714 :7,5 = 228!

Hardly impressive, oh and it was a bot. What a sissy WOPR u got urself there. ;-) pun definately intended.

Defcon can't count that high. Seriously. At 2147 your score would of then gone to -2147 and up. Since you do this twice, if we do the math, your score would of been 536, NOT 4830. (i.e. 4830 - 2147 - 2147)

Due to the problem listed above, it would be impossible to have INSANE populations. Also if world populations get too large, all the cities have negative population, and the game can't run. Finally, everyone would need the edits you made to play, else it would get sync errors.

LOL

yeah, but how about 300mill or 400? that shouldnt pose a problem? IMO 400 is insane and 500 mill/terr would be mega insane.

Well, at a population limit of 1500 million per side, your major city in most contents has about 400M in it. Two nukes gets you roughly 300 points :)

It would take a monumentally silly player to give up all 1500 million points though, but this value has only been tested for 3 player games. I would need to test further to see the limit one should impose for 6 player games.

Im not talking of 1500mill/terr games. Just 3-400mill. more would do. If I could set 201mill/terr I would!
