The onemoreturn channel did a great explanation of growth bonuses. 100% grow rate = infinite population and no food costs

[@UrsaRyan]

Yes that came out after filming this, hilarious 🤣

[@uncletimo6059]

totally not broken what a disaster

[@nicodemarte6725]

I learned from another video that apparently growth rate bonuses decrease the amount of food required for your next citizen, rather than increasing food per turn, which means if you can stack exactly 100% in growth bonuses you get 1 population every turn

[@UrsaRyan]

I saw this as well - hilarious!

[@seanbergland7109]

I think the variance that they gave to the tribal villages is so much cooler, it makes finding the stuff more interesting!

[@maartenbondt9600]

I personally love the disconnect between leader and civ. I love the replayability of civ games and this will only boost that

[@SourceOfBeing]

£719 - Spanning over four centuries, the Han dynasty is considered a golden age in Chinese history, and had a permanent impact on Chinese identity in later periods. The Han emperor was at the pinnacle of Han society and culture. He presided over the Han government but shared power with both the nobility and the appointed ministers who came largely from the scholarly University of Sankore.

[@UrsaRyan]

I knew I recognised them from somewhere

[@fredblues7175]

I bought Civ6 when it came out. For the longest time I had less than a hundred hours in it because I was enjoying Civ5. I will call this the first video to convince me to get Civ7. Kinda not fair because you make things a lot more fun!

[@Rated_xv]

Same here I bought it way early on prior to watching this video. I have seen a lot of negative review and I was starting to regret my purchase until I saw this video. Thank you...

I love Confucius. I've always been more attracted to Scientific leaders and he's right up my alley.

It will take a while for us to address our opponents by their leader instead of the civ. Looking forward to playing!

[@v.duskren8819]

Wow, I haven't thought of that yet. Great point!

[@Connor-f6s]

There's no England/Britain in the game on release. I have no real complaints otherwise, but it is absolutely *bizzare* to me that they don't have the largest empire ever in the game about building an Empire. Victoria & Britain should be a shoe in

[@amnesia9231]

Im inclined to agree with you, I imagine its going to be part of a dlc (though i paid too much for founders edition already)

[@Connor-f6s]

@amnesia9231 Britain is, Vicky isn't, in the first half of the Crossroads of the World dlc - which is included in the founders edition. We also get Ada Lovelace in that one, along with Carthage. In the 2nd half is Simon Bolivar, Bulgaria & Nepal

Nvm found the difficulty as asked on the third video. Didn’t k now this was a play series. Subbed and liked btw. Nice narrative voice btw. Some KZbinrs are annoying with their voices. Thanks for the content.

[@greypiquero9056]

7 reminds me of a Diablo 2 Resurrected. They made the game seem simplistic yet increased the amount of detail you can perceive in-game and I love looking at every detail this game has. It's the learning phase of every civ franchise that really pulls me into the game.

[@TheAwesomik]

So, inheriting wonders is a brand new mechanic in Civ7. Sounds interesting, finally you don't have to go to war for built wonders

[@scott88008]

I love watching your strategic brilliance but it would be nice if you could zoom in occasionally to show off the beautiful artistry of the game.

Pachacuti would work well with the Han as you can build great walls on mountains with him and turtle up really well

That's not a bad shout

[@cabbage2241]

Huzzah! Han China, favourite culture so far!

[@theirishviking9278]

i feel like having a loyalty system in the antiquity age would make sense but inverse it where its the further away you are the worse it gets, rather than the closer to other civs you can just remove it for the next ages and it wouldn't really change much

[@arcadior314]

HUZZAH!!

[@UrsaRyan]

Huzzah!!

[@TmdXD]

Thank you for all your drawings, Ursa! Did the devs said anything about those? Also, Civ 7 looks VERY fun, i won't buy it for a while, I have a 1060, need to upgrade to a 4070 or 5070 first, but i'll definitelly buy!

[@TheAntoine185]

1:30:00 Loyalty was a blassing! Having played a lot of civ 6 online game, I can tell you that the number of players settling a city 3 tiles away from your just to then buy a tile to put an encampement in range of your own city was kinda the meta. Long live the loyalty system ! :D

[@DarthDanMan2]

Yeah honestly I think it's the one thing I'll be missing the most. It also just looks silly to have an AI settle deep within your lands.

[@UrsaRyan]

I also miss loyalty!

[@LePLusCoolDesCools]

Confucius/Khmer combination would be a force to be reckoned with I feel.

[@arifb222]

Thanks for the great gameplay! Does a mining town send its production to cities? If not, what's the use of its production since it can't produce anything? And regarding the constant attacks from the city-states despite some of them being far away, I suspect that the AIs are inciting raids against you.

[@UrsaRyan]

No the production is turned into gold - a mining town simply makes more gold = )

[@jeffgonzales5609]

Hey Ursa, as a fellow population enjoyer, did you know that having exactly 100% bonus growth rate makes your city grow 1 pop per turn regardless of food?

[@UrsaRyan]

I did see that!

[@Furbinator]

so after watching a lot of gameplay I've noticed that if you have a settlement on a navigable river or the coast you HAVE to have some sort of naval force or else the independent states or whatever they're called will just spam your city with naval units.

[@UrsaRyan]

Oh yeah, they're brutal

I'VE SURVIVED FOR A MULTITUDE OF DOZENS OF TURNS WHATS 30 MORE TURNS ursa-man

[@bigmanroadman3910]

I like how a lot of mechanics have kind of returned from civ 5 without removing ideas from civ 6 (since i like both). For example you get government cards like civ 6 but the leader attributes remind me of social policies from civ 5. I also like how they brought back the good part of happiness but without the god awful growth debuff from having negative happiness that civ 5 had. My only major gripe is I kind of don’t understand improving diplomacy as much as they have and then removing diplomatic victory.

[@TrojanSparty]

My guess is they removed diplomatic victory purely so they could include it in a later expansion.

[@UrsaRyan]

Yeah I think it will come in an expansion as well

[@RossRed-p2y]

Did you see the spiffingbrit he just uploaded he turned Roman legions into +59 combat tanks

[@lolwhatidk]

AAAHHHH i want to play so bad

[@GamerSerg74]

For civs that have a unique improvement is it just always an upgrade over whatever improvement you replaced? Like the unique improvement only adds to the existing yields without removing any, so it's always a positive thing to do? Is that correct? Also, when you move to the next era and switch civs do those unique improvements stay or revert back to the standard improvement?

[@UrsaRyan]

Yes pretty much - think of it like a 2 part improvement

[@SanderKers]

When is the railroad victory overview coming? (Some call this victory cultural)

[@UrsaRyan]

Is there a faster movement speed option like in civ vi?

[@rainbowcrash6990]

33:30 Honestly I never do domination, but I always end up with and absurd army. I don't mind a game where standing armies are useful even when not at war. Might feel like war/unit costs aren't as lost when not at war.

[@joshwon4291]

The border gore caused by the lack of a loyalty/pressure mechanic is not great. Is this something that's addressed in subsequent ages, or do we need to wait for the dev team to come up with something?

lol I was sitting there thinking Ursa that’s 30% bonus your total science at the time was 165 so that would be about an extra +50…. Totally broken attribute vs +1 for every socialist you have which isn’t that many yet so maybe like +5 unless I am just wrong and that’s not how that works

[@konan102102]

The thing that worries me is: is there a room for pivot? I mean in Civ 6 you sometimes raced between science, culture and domination victory. And now you pick Confucius, pick 2 additional perks that boost science because it's rational and I can't really see anybody saying "this science path isn't working out. Frick it, I go full culture". And in Civ 6 you have those jack of all trades leaders like Victoria with who you can go domination with crazy strong navy and red jackets, culture with stronger history museums, or even science with crazy amount of trade routs

[@UrsaRyan]

Yeah I've pivoted quite a bit in my practice games. What you see on YT tends to be a focused game based on a video brief I'm running. Take what you see with a pinch of salt

@ Dude, dude, dude :) If you were talking about multi-player you'd be making sense (except you can shut them off then--or allow them). But if you're talking single-player, than you have the FREEDOM to totally ignore them--or not. Your call! Are you saying there should never be rewards that you earn?

8:27 this Greek style Chinese capital city is overlapping over the river instead of building on both sides of it like we had in the past. You may say that I'm knit picking but it's unacceptable for a full price game to be in such a bad state.

I dont see the point of mementos being locked. I understand that, this is Firaxis idea to keep people playing multiple games with every leader and such. If players likes the game, they will pour 1000+ hours into the game anyway. I find this idea of "meta progression" pointless in Civ of all games. Just give players all toys to play with from the start.
