Yes, have you?

🤣🤣

It certainly looks like it - I'm looking forward to finding out more!

Thankfully I think there'll be more structure to which Civs you can progress to in Civ 7.

I think it looks very promising overall. It will certainly be a new experience!

I believe it was confirmed that religion will start in the exploration age.

civ 4 is good direction.

I think a lot of people don't like the several Civs per game feature. I'll keep an open mind and see how it plays but I can understand why people are cautious about it.

I feel like I'm the only one who is 100% optimistic about it. Most people I talk about it with aren't as positive and are less confident about how good it's gonna be.

My main concern is the civ change in the middle of the game. When I start a new game, I don't want to play as Genghis Khan - I want to play as Mongolia. I hate the idea that I'll be forced to play as a completely different civ after a few hundred turns just because. For me this could be salvaged if the civ changes made sense. I'd be all for it if the changes were like: Holy Roman Empire -> Prussia -> Germany. Or if you could play as England and later on choose to become eg. Great Britain, USA or Australia. These would make sense historically. What doesn't make sense is that you're at war with Julius Caesar of Rome one turn, and then sign a peace treaty with Julius Caesar of Japan the next turn. There is still a very simple solution though - let us turn this feature off. Simple, but I'm afraid they'll force it on us anyway. Which is why I'm not preordering and I'm not buying it at launch.

It wouldn't be civ if they didn't take big risks with the new game. Personally I don't really mind it, but I hope that like others have mentioned there will be historically logical options available most of the time so the transition feels natural.

No. You’re definitely not the only one

I don't think so. I'm sure they'll share more information going forward.

You can just mod civ 6 like the other civ games followings of the past have done when they didn't like the way the new one was handled.

@@thebr5294 yes. There will be

@@TheAverage_French_Main Cool thanks for the response.

For armies, the one with the higher initative rating moves first where there's conflict

the moves aren't resolved in real time though, they're resolved during turn transition. this avoids the issue of advantage to AI or humans with faster reaction time

I think that's when the Gamescom event starts so the trailer will likely be some time after. I'm waiting eagerly!

don't we already have point two with the dynamic turns? Or am I missing something

I am so wet right now

Also alternate leaders need different unique units, especially if they’re from different eras. Henry V is not going to have Redcoats like George III. Victoria and Elizabeth I aren’t going to have the same units either. For a truly different experience with the same Civ, let’s say the two rulers of America are Abe Lincoln and Reagan. Is Abe Lincoln going to have Navy Seals and F-15 fighters? Alternatively, is Ronald Reagan going to have rifle musket infantry and Parot guns? The answer is no. The alternative leaders having the same units and the same buffs, especially from different eras confused me in Civ 6

Also, world Congress should not be a thing until the modern era

For the government, different governments should unlock different policies and you choose what you want.

As for governors, what we really need is a new mechanic. A region setting mechanic. Here’s how it could work. You select a group of cities, choose which one to make the regional capital, set that region’s specialization (agriculture, livestock, mining, education, entertainment & culture, later on industry oil, and tourism become available.) then you can assign a governor to that region. The governor goes to the regional capital and maintains order from there. Roads between cities increases order, loyalty, and efficiency.

One final thing: districts. I like them but they need to be scaled back. Fewer districts. Some should become city center buildings. Neighborhoods, encampment, diplomatic, harbor, entertainment, industrial, airport, aqueduct, and spaceport are fine, but we do not need the other districts. Those are useless and IRL the buildings in those districts are typically found in city centers. Also, wonders should NOT take up a whole tile to themselves. Why would oxford university need its own tile? Is that not just a special university? Why can’t it replace the university in the campus buildings? Lighthouse of Alexandria. Is that not a lighthouse? Why can’t it be built in place of a normal lighthouse?????

I'm not sure we should train advanced AI on "how to take over the world" lol. But seriously, you're right. I remember students creating Civ4 mods using machine learning. The AI in Civ makes it unplayable to me (once I learn how to play that version). I actually just play either multiplayer (with friends) or hotseat (against myself, lol) and I play Civ 5, Civ 6's expansions make the game worse, not better.

Careful what you wish for!

you gonna get disappointed. Just play online

@@RichGilly isn't this sort of the chess conundrum where if AI becomes perfect in the game, you can just never win?

​@@SojinyPeople aren't really asking for the AI to be perfect. Just for the AI to be as competent as a fairly experienced played. Then you could play against the AI without the AI needing cheats like bonuses to all their resources. Playing against a higher difficulty AI in Civ 6 isn't a fair fight. The AI is that bad that you can still win against it. But it doesn't feel fair as the AI is that bad it has to be given unfair advantages over the player.
