(Civ 6) The BIGGEST Mistake Everyone Makes In Civilization 6 || Tips For Civilization 6

[@alex2005z]

Watching this video made me think that, if you capture a settler but cant get it out alive, you can "give it" to an enemy city state so that you can take it back latter maybe, and you lose nothing from it

[@TheCivLifeR]

thats not bad idea tbh, like an offshore swiss bank lol

[@galitzkiy]

civlifer is a deity level youtuber! keep up the good work

[@TheCivLifeR]

I appreciate that!

[@alex2005z]

If you want a tip on where the AI is gonna settle: if there is fresh water there, they wont settle it

[@TheCivLifeR]

youd be surprised lol, ai loves settling on no water

[@alex2005z]

One mistake I would like to point out is sending delegations. Just not worth it unless you are really scared of war or going for culture victory. Its better to prepare for war than to try and prevent it

[@TheCivLifeR]

delegations arent very helpful early game tbh

[@leandroTRA]

step 1: Build 1 cavalry or boat step 2: kill all of mongols cavalry or Norwegians boats step 3: make piece without taking any city (no grievances) works better if they declared war on you step 4 : have a new Fanboy who absolutely loves you " LOOK at that impressive navy, what I sight to behold'' prompt

[@leandroTRA]

works with Egypt as well, kill all their military , make peace and suddenly she loves you

[@onfleek6942]

This is like "Poop IN her to assert dominance" kinda stuff😂😂

[@saigesmart4167]

I wanna see the math for the 8 city rule. Like no joke because I think explaining that will show a lot of insight on how you play and work around various situations

[@getbn6547]

0:32 The biggest mistake in Civ 6 is buying it on the Switch. Yeah, you can play it on the toilet but it takes five minutes for the AI to take their turns. Don't make the same mistake I did lol

[@joemaxwell7185]

You can turn off combat animations and enable quick movement. Cuts the wait time by over half.

[@tomohawk52]

If I were pregnant I would name my child Socrates Montezuma.

[@TheCivLifeR]

that child would do great things

[@gareeb_af9817]

Im sorry but to make the yields show before settling the city there? Like in the video he placed a marker to build a campus there and its showing+4 science, but he doesnt have a city there. How to do that?

[@leandroTRA]

a good point is what type of unit you are using for early exploring, warrior and slingers or scouts? a rule that I use is only scouts are allowed to leave my immediate surroundings and explore the world to meet other civs and city states Military can only make a circle around my capital and then I move them back to defend my lands kinda like National Guard X Expeditionary forces mentality usually why I open with one scout and slot in the extra xp card, I need him to hit that extra 20 combat strength third promotion so I can send him on a global journey

[@webbowser8834]

Generally I make scout my first build item for scouting efficiency, maybe build a second one later on if I'm on a large map or the first one got unlucky with some barbs or something. Scouts have rapidly diminishing returns after one or two.. You should have enough warriors/slingers such that even when one or two are out busting barb camps, you're not utterly screwed if another barb camp spawns near your capital. Don't neglect your early military, that's how you lose these games.

[@alex2005z]

I just get a few scouts later on once I can sell diplo favor for gold, and get none early to get settling asap

[@webbowser8834]

@@alex2005z Scout Slinger Settler has always been my build. Monument tends to be the thing I put off until later just because scouting is just too important and needs to be done prior to the first settler coming out.

[@Phlebas]

That's how I do it too. Recon units are for exploring far-off lands, melee units are for exploring immediate surroundings (and taking out barb camps).

[@BrainWise95]

This is definitely helpful. I'm not the greatest at planning out my city layouts.

[@alex2005z]

Planning before early scouting. Thats just a time waste since you dont have enough information to make good decisions

[@TheCivLifeR]

true

[@jarlGudmunder]

U should also add, not going for GPP And not pillaging tiles/districts

[@TheCivLifeR]

GPP is a good one tbh theyre so broken early

[@mur80mur]

What dlc's do you have, specifically which one has govenors and where can I get that map mod you use to plan out your future cities?

[@schmeterling]

If I'm not too late, he uses Rise and Fall and Gathering Storm DLCs. And that is not a map mod. Just click on the third from the left button above the map.

[@Shironen2011]

Remember the tip I gave about Elizabeth? 22 cities by the Atomic Era that game.

[@Shironen2011]

And only one of them conquered. (Killed Spain before it had a second town)

[@ReMeDy_TV]

The biggest mistake in playing Civ 6 is... playing Civ 6. You should be playing Civ 5.

[@joemaxwell7185]

Stopping loyalty is easy, you just have to beeline to the capital. Then you can take everything else without loyalty issues.

[@KOKen-jq9ny]

A win can be acquired from building tall, 5 cities max depending on the civ! Only culture and Dom Vic's will require more cities tbh

[@TheCivLifeR]

they CAN be, but you need to be almost perfect

@TheCivLifeR I recognise your voice! You are that guy from those awsome reviews of the walking dead. Walking path or something like that. Great that we have the same intrests. Fingers crossed that you will make a video about Bob Marley or early punk history :-) PS Do you like Don Carlin history podcasts too?

[@idkjhgr]

how you can make the historical events coloured?

[@TheCivLifeR]

Why the game doesn't have colorized historical events by default is crazy; it's a phenomenal mod.

Why are you planning that many industrial zones in the video? I'v heard they don't stack?

[@joemaxwell7185]

They do with upgraded Magnus but only to the city he's in

[@billyboucher2629]

So quick question. If in the beginning of the game, i spawn next to another City-State settler, should i take it? Or leave it alone? Btw your videos have really improved my game. Keep it up.

[@Stu-Bo]

On Deity it's not easy, they start with walls, and you need to get a quick battering ram and a swarm of warriors. That takes a lot of early production, but if the city state is in a 🤌 location and close enough.... Go for it :)

[@leandroTRA]

there are no penalties if they have not settled yet, free settler

[@FailNetworking]

Always take unless it's a city state with a great suzerein bonus

[@brianhum8765]

Whether it's city state or an AI settler, it's nearly always worth stealing it; a free settler is one of the biggest single snowballs you can get in the game and Civ is all about snowballing
