Armchair Admirals! MEGA CIV 6! w/ Lewis, Duncan, Ben, Rythian, Daltos, Potato & Spiff! 07/02/2022

[@AquaAtia]

Good to have Ben back in a game of Civ!

[@octopusexperiment1931]

Saw Ben and even though I don't watch civ 6 went yep let's spend 5 hours watching this. If only we could get Pflax too...

[@shynarcissist]

Proof that Ben is actually pretty good at games. He hasn't played in ages, and was able to hold potato back pretty well, despite potato using those BS cheese units

[@ReunionMana]

ben is always pog at strategy games dude

[@InaarGames]

I love how Lewis just looks more and more like a hippy as time goes by

[@Americanbadashh]

Ben was hilarious in this and unexpectedly is kinda good at the game. He's a real ... shark

[@NotoriousMinion]

Unexpectedly kinda good? You miss the Datlof Civ 5 stream where Ben absolutely owned..?

[@chowjers1087]

Yay for Ben in Civ

[@strategystuff5080]

Also MP balance mod, but they left Lahore in?

[@Thromash]

I never once had an issue or bug playing this game in any mode. Then I watch these guys play. I wish it worked properly & they were able to enjoy the game fully, I really enjoy watching them play but I also know they love hate the game.

[@dororo101]

It’s a flawed but fun game. also to be fair it is not a multiplayer game and doesn’t try to be

[@Thromash]

Yeah, I just wish the Devs made it work properly so that the guys could enjoy playing it really & well that it works.. lol

[@dororo101]

Wait was this taking the piss because they complained about this very comment and I just missed it like a papega?

[@Thromash]

@@dororo101 yeah a little bit taking the piss, but also genuine sadness that the game is how it is & how much enjoyment it takes away for them playing.

[@dororo101]

@@Thromash I’m still greatly looking forward to what will happen with humankind. I love the events and stuff which is something I feel civ misses (4 had them but they were Rare). I want both games to be good but they fall short and it’s frustrating but understandable

[@dororo101]

How does Duncan never guild the government plaza despite every game wondering why he lacks the things you get from one

[@whiskeyhound]

Pure talent, same way he's only just learnt in GTA 5 that doing a wheelie on a motorbike in mid air let you jump higher.

[@rocketforthree4479]

@@whiskeyhound technically he didn't know that wheelie-ing before the boost makes you boost upward. but yeah, same thing

[@whiskeyhound]

@@rocketforthree4479 I thought it was both, I didn't know about the boost thing but it sounded like he didn't even know about wheelie-ing in mid air to make the bike fly further.

[@rocketforthree4479]

@@whiskeyhound yeah, You're right, i think it was both

[@DarthDre]

1:15:45 Duncan renames city that he settled using a settler he stole from Lewis, to Lewis...Lewis proceeds to maniacally stare down Duncan (due to his screen position) 😂😂😂

[@Ice-Queen-Jingliu]

I must say i do know how it feels to be potato and be way better then all your friends, but i would never war somebody to the point were they get the defeat screen. My friends would hate me and refuse to play civ with me after that. I do think ben could probally handle it but it was still very harsh and sad to see ben just sit his time out after he was dead.

[@hybridxtr]

yeah I like when they used to just todie when defeat was gonna happen no matter what cause then it kept everyone playing

[@biggie_kellogs7919]

Ben did declare the war and raze his city tbf

[@Ice-Queen-Jingliu]

Yea true but once both razed a city and ben surrendered it felt fine to stop and make ben a toddie or something

[@hybridxtr]

@@Ice-Queen-Jingliu completely agree with that

[@Z0eff]

Oh, this isnt going to be edited into episodes for the Civ channel? :(

[@leoslack6104]

How do we know? Because the Vod has been posted?

[@Z0eff]

@@leoslack6104 Usually they either post the vod here or episodes on the civ channel. Could be both this time I guess?

[@leoslack6104]

@@Z0eff ah okay thanks, also you are a legend

[@seankelly9301]

"That's one of those TikToks that's really short" Do you mean a VINE, Lewis???

[@Codeman1930]

Ben with his Stormlight Archive quote

[@frankiecedeno3724]

I feel like one of the major issues (which has been pointed out from the very start of them playing) is that they just don’t know enough about the game. They complain about the policy cards, but they don’t know what most of them do and you HAVE to know what your doing in a multiplayer game with a limited turn timer. Every single time they play they have to re-learn a bunch of stuff. Civ 6 asks you to learn and remember.

[@JM.....]

And all the mods change it up CivVI is just so much more to remember and learn compared to CivV

[@Americanbadashh]

@@JM..... It's a lot but with the amount of hours they have it in you'd expect that they'd learn. I prolly have less hours than them but still know more somehow

[@octopusexperiment1931]

Incredible that lewis wants to ally with potato, the guy with like all of their hours except spiff combined easily vs Ben, the new guy.

[@frankiecedeno3724]

Holy crap, I seriously giggled when I saw Potatoe’s Military score.

[@chandler2k6]

I'm only 1hr 20 in and I wish I could like this video multiple times xD

[@doc_holliday9484]

As much as I enjoy potato and I think he’s a great guy, it’s almost not fun to watch since him and spiff just min/max to victory every game. It genuinely feels like even if you had everyone team up on one of them (aside from the other) they still wouldn’t lose… it just sorta sucks

[@terraJosh]

agreed

[@WASSUPWlDU]

Inclined to agree but I do like the dynamic they bring, maybe a handicap is fitting.

Yeah, and they have no problem in picking the most broken stuff, like the Nihang.

[@terraJosh]

@ right? that’s the problem. they know how to abuse the game and then do…

[@jamesscott305]

perfectly balanced

[@strategystuff5080]

Bens capital is super defense-able though

[@jordannissen4772]

I love the yogs typical shit tier work through for technical problems, like in the beginning when they are trying to pick civilizations

[@MartinOlminkhof]

Why does Whapoon not end with exclamation marks?

[@dororo101]

Why are Nihangs a things in this game?

[@KuueenKumi]

3:04:33 Also ringtones. It's just like, what now. And then when you listen to the song by itself, it feels weird, like you're just listening to your phone ring. I've ruined a lot of songs lol

[@MrMaster7112765]

Have they still not managed to fix the black flashes when uploading twitch vods to KZbin?

[@biggie_kellogs7919]

Oh man i saw that stream with Sips and NL playing Monopoly maddness. good stuff

[@CaseChronicles69]

Wow a Daltosless game with Ben, what a treat.

[@Bob21150]

Just FYI if you get even a minor electric shock you need to get checked by a medical professional asap as it could destabilise your heart rhythm and kill you. Tj should have been checked.

[@goobyplz1159]

bean = mvp

[@IanDoesMagic]

Rewatching this makes me nostalgic for Lewis's mid-level drug dealer look.

[@B0Sajwah]

I love these so much

[@zeveroarerules]

Funny, that wasn't "The Dip" Dunc. So how much did you lose? :')

[@acestrelok]

Well, Humankind is horribly imbalanced but at least it's playable lol. I miss those streams.

[@TheSantr]

If Ben didnt get in that war he may have had a chance

[@Adam-ml9vg]

definitely needs to be a little more balancing haha

[@JohnSmith-rr3jt]

Don't these guys play on prince difficulty? The barbs are piss weak lol, they just don't kill the camps, get scouted then do nothing about it.

[@biggie_kellogs7919]

yay i love potato!

[@kurojima]

CIV is such a catastrophy of a game, the worst multiplayer coding ever

[@Americanbadashh]

Have you seen some fighting games? Because Civ net code is a dream compared to some of them

[@timjennings4342]

Yeah man you’ve never played the slideshow known as Dragon Ball, fighterZ or third strike online.

[@strategystuff5080]

Seriously though, why invite whiskey, if hes going to just destroy them all? and hes kind of a douche about it 2, like using super op-broken units in a supposedly more balanced version of the game, against people who are worse than him XD. This is like a Pro basket-ball player dunking on some middle-school kids... while also fouling them

[@hybridxtr]

I think they enjoy it not being lewis doing so every game so it's someone to make them better

[@Americanbadashh]

He literally gives everyone free correct advice, compliments people constantly and even gives out resources and gold in almost every game and you're calling him a douche?

[@strategystuff5080]

@@Americanbadashh I don't know about him giving out resources and gold. But giving someone tiny nuggets of advice when you are obliterating them, is hardly nice. Also the douche part is him using a clearly broken unit, in a game that was modded to be more fair. Only him and Spiff, knew about the brokenness of that unit. Yet he still thought it was ok to absolutely destroy people with broken units, in a game under the pretense of more balance. Like they where actively trying to have a balanced competitive game. Draft + Balance mods. The true paragon option, would be to beat Ben using non op units

[@masterxanonomas]

Cool

[@dororo101]

Remeber when Luis use to good at games?

[@zeveroarerules]

The English do know it's about meta leaving the EU, not the UK right :p

[@mrc7684]

Yeeeeeee booooiiiiiiiiiiiiii

[@MartinOlminkhof]

Never play as Australia, they lose to the Emu's

[@ernestrobinson8441]

Civ should give Australia an special emu unit, composed entirely of emus which takes 100% more damages against machine gun units.

[@GhostOfSparta]

Potato is so annoying I'd rather not have him or spiff in there bc all they do is walk over everyone it's not fun to watch everytime

[@ArtisBlankfaces]

I'm here for spiff

[@Zaroncar]

Only 55min in, but I'm tired of hearing Ben complain about his "horrible start". That is an AMAZING start & I don't know why someone (Lewis? Potato?), hasn't shut him up about it yet!! Hopefully this idea that he has a terrible start later in the Vod

[@Boombox69in]

Yay, Daltos left!
