Is there a reason why sometimes city amenities won't increase even after doing something that increases them? In my games, I try to get commercial helps first because it always seems like the computer never prioritizes them. Some of the merchants increase amenities of a city. However, sometimes when I use them it doesn't actually increase the amenities. Why is this?

One thing to note about single player games. AI tends to undervalue their own luxuries while vastly overvaluing yours (to the tune of selling for 1GPT and buying for up to 14). It is therefore much better to sell all of the luxuries you've improved (last ones included) and then only rely on ones you've bought and/or received from city states, as you cant re-sell them.

I think the main reason for why people think Amenities aren't a big deal is that they used to be way less impactful. 5% yield malus from being unhappy is of course something you'd want to avoid, and 5% bonus from being happy is nice, but those are not that big of a deal. Since the effects were doubled to be 10% per level of happiness, it has been really meaningful, but people who don't pay attention do not really notice it and act as if unhappiness is still just a minor inconvenience.

@wombat41913 ай бұрын
@@ILiekFishes Yes, it's not like you should have ignored amenities back when their effects were weaker, but you very much could do so without as much of a downside (or without missing out on as much of a benefit). Besides, there's an opportunity cost to everything, and many players just deemed the opportunity cost of trying to go for happy cities not worth it. That might have been a bad assessment of the benefits, but it's more of a tossup when the difference is only 5% per level of happiness. And because it's easier to just see the concrete yields than calculate what the percentages do, people opted for the concrete yields. But there are still a lot of SP players who, in their attempts to exploit the shit out of the AI, insist on selling the only copy of a luxury they have. Because they get gold yields that they can actually see and understand, instead of some abstract percentages. Edit: Oh and amenity requirements for Happy and Ecstatic were different back then. 1-2 extra amenities was enough for Happy, and +3 was enough for Ecstatic. So essentially, current Happy is almost the same as Ecstatic was back then. In reality, it was definitely worth going for.

@bleep4103 ай бұрын
probably flat land low food/production luxuries or bonus resources normally. if the resource has a science or culture yield is good very early on since all cities have a minimum 2 food and 1 production yield on city center tile, but anything that is above 2 food/1 production adds on to the city (which is why settling on a plains hills tile gives the city 2 production).
@guilhermedalcin11363 ай бұрын

You need to make that decision based on your needs. Low food and housing, leave that plantation alone.

@redline2973 ай бұрын
In vanilla civ 6 there are a few things to consider. First of all the feature (marsh, woods, rainforest) will be removed so ignore them. Second is the type of land. By default your city centre cant be worse than 2 food and 1 production. This means that even on desert or snow it will at minimum be 2 -1. If you settle on a plains hill (1-2), your city centre will take the larger production making it a 2 - 2. If you settle on a geothermal fissure you will also get the bonus science that tile usally provides. The most confusing part is the resources of the tile (iron - strategic, deer - bonus, tobacco - luxury, etc). The bonus yields from these tiles will remain as long as the bonus they provide ends up being greater than 2 food 1 production. You will also automatically work the tile which means if you settle on a luxury resource or a strategic resource you will get the luxury/strategic to keep or sell. Some examples: Settling on a plains with woods feature and deer bonus resource (1 food 3 prod) You would remove the woods (now a 1 food 2 prod). As 2 food > 1 food (from your town centre) you have 2 food. As 1 prod < 2 prod (from plains and deer), you would have 2 prod. Therefore town centre tile would be 2 food 2 prod. Settling on a grasslands floodplain with marsh and sugar luxury. (4 food 0 prod) Remove the marsh (3 food 0 prod). As 3 food > 2 food we have 3 food. As 1 prod > 0 prod we have 1 prod. Therefore 3 - 1 city centre. Settling on a rainforest plains tobacco. (2 food, 1 prod 1 faith) Remove the rainforest. (1 food 1 prod 1faith) As 2 food > 1 food we have 2 food. As 1 prod = 1 prod we have 1 prod. 1 faith > 0 faith therefore 1 faith. Final city centre is 2 food 1 prod 1 faith. We also get to automatically keep the tobacco luxury. Desert hill with copper bonus resource. 1 prod 2 copper. No feature to remove. 2 food > 0 food so 2 food. 1 prod = 1 prod so 1 prod. 2 gold > 0 gold so 2 gold. Final city centre is 2 food 1 prod 2 gold. I didnt provide any wonder examples but the same rules apply to them as well. Herson may make a better video but there are other things to consider when settling i didnt mention. First ring yields are super important. Freshwater/coastal also matter for housing. Settling so that the city receives bonues from industrial zones/entertainment complexes/etc. Settling on desert/tundra/snow/near wonder give era score. Settling on a geothermal vent means that you dont have a tile that is useless until the end of the game. Settling on a luxury means not wasting a builder charge and not having to research the required tech. Also consider if your leader or pantheon gives bonuses for certain types of improvements. If you have a bonus for camps you might not want to settle on a deer tile, preventing a camp being put on it.
@wombat41913 ай бұрын
Overall, they yields of one single tile are not that big of a deal. If it's something that would be overwhelmingly the best tile in your city (probably Spices if you play without BBG) and you don't need the luxury immediately, you don't need to settle on it. In basically all other cases, just settle on the luxury if it's also otherwise a viable city spot. Note that your city center tile can also gain the extra yields that the tile you settle on has by default, if the yields go beyond the 2 food and 1 production that a city center always gains regardless of terrain, features or resources. The exception is removable features (woods, rainforest, marsh), which are removed as you settle on them and so you don't gain the bonus yield. If you for example have a grassland tile with Citrus, Sugar or Honey, that tile will have 4 food by default. It's a great tile to settle on, because it retains that 4 food (2 more than a city center has normally), and gives 1 production as well because that's what having city center on the tile gives. Then, you most likely have at least a 2+1 or 1+2 tile to work with the starting citizen that the city has, for a total yield of 6+2 or 5+3. This is better than settling a city next to the tile for a 2+1 city center and working the tile for 4 food, because that results in a worse 6+1 yield, and also doesn't give you the luxury resource on the tile. Additionally, improving luxuries with plantations and camps is something you want to avoid needing to do early on, because those improvements are just weaker than mines (and farms, quarries and pastures to some extent) that you want to spend your build charges on instead. So settling on resources that are improved by plantations and camps is a good idea to avoid needing to waste build charges on those improvements. As for luxuries that aren't as beneficial to settle on, Salt is probably the top contender. Remember, you should still settle on it if you need the luxury asap and the tile is good for a city spot. But, Salt tiles typically have at most 2 food, 1 production and 1 gold, so the only yield benefit you get from settling on it is 1 gold. If you in turn settle a normal 2+1 city next to the Salt tile, you can build a mine on it for a workable tile that's equivalent to a grassland hill mine, but with +1 gold. That's especially useful if the area is mostly flat and lacks hills to build mines on.

Similar to the feudalism builder card that most people think is just 66% more production towards builders, most people playing civ don't understand how a 10% boost will lead to a lot more than just a "10%" better empire.

It's largely to prevent players teaming up with each other from becoming too powerful, especially in the early and middle-stages of the game. If one player is being bankrolled by another, they can launch devastating attacks which are impossible for a single player to defend against without help. There are incredibly powerful mid-game war strategies which aren't possible in FFA on account of gold/strategics trading being disallowed, but which are common in teamers. Here's an example I've time-stamped from a teamers vod played by the streamer Trynda: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaiZiWmofa5obM0 You can see how, on turn 46, he is on negative 32 gold per turn. His early game consisted of settling a mere 5 cities, putting a campus in every one, and maximizing his science output. This strategy results in a large boom in science, but results in really low production and gold compared to a conventional commercial hub opener, and won't scale effectively at all as the game goes on. With his low production and low gold income, he can't even capitalize on his high science to kill someone - at least, he wouldn't be able to if not for his teammates trading him gold and strategics. Thanks to them bankrolling his empire with a ridiculous infusion of gold, he's able to materialize a massive army and vaporize his neighbor. These sorts of plays are fun in teamers games, but most players would agree they don't belong in free-for-all games. People in FFA prefer strategies which are self-sufficient, not ones which rely on being bankrolled by other players. Furthermore, having all 10 players constantly pester each other for gold like "I'm short 5 gold for builder buy, please send gold, I pay back double in two turns" gets annoying after a while, so banning gold trading also just makes free-for-all a more relaxing experience.

I never use the Liberalism policy card in most games, I usually bunch up holysites (with the river goddess pantheon), theater squares, and entertainment complexes to get more culture yeilds from the adjacency bonus. While I use the entertainment complex and holysite adjacent to a river to gain extra amenities. I also use the republican lecacy in early game. During the late game, I use waterparks (and their buildings) to stack the amenities with the entertainment complex gaining me a ton of amenities without needing many luxury resources. After unlocking professional sports, I use the new economic policy card (sorry can't remember what it is called) to generate more amenities (in stadiums) as well as increase adjacency bonuses of theater squares. New deal helps a lot when I unlock democracy, but it becomes obsolete when I get digital democracy and when I get the chance to build Estadio. Anyways.... that's my approach at amenities in civ 6.

I think it's to prevent people from teaming up against the player that has gained a lead. It's supposed to be free for all, not all against the leader. BBS ensures that no one can have an absolutely atrocious spawn in terms of strategic resources, and BBG makes it so that you can produce some strategic resources out of thin air with policy cards, Warlord's Throne, and Encampment, Harbor and Aerodrome buildings. So you never end up in a situation where you for example just can't have any tanks because you simply don't have an access to oil. However, if there's someone leading the game and just one other player is in a position to invade them, that player could gain unfair advantage if all other players just decided to give all their oil and aluminum resources to that player so that they can maintain a larger army than they should be able to otherwise.

There's a reason the game is played with a couple of mods that make it more balanced. There's a reason it's played with simultaneous turns and on Online speed (things like research and productions happen in half the amount of turns compared to Standard speed). There's a reason you need probably thousands of hours in the game to play at the top level. And of course there's a reason it's not the most popular of competitive games even with all the effort put into building a competitive scene.

Hey Herson, Didn't the BBG Update a while ago nerf amenities to be +8/16% on those positive breakpoints rather than +10/20%?

*Extended policy cards* mod. It's very helpful when knowing which cards give you the most amount at any given time.

When trading amenities with another player, is the trade valid for only 30 turns or is it permanent?

30 turns, you'll have to keep looking for new deals or renewing same one.

very useful info, although i feel you complicated it by introducing BBG so early. Help people lock down the core game mechanics as they are, and once that becomes natural THEN introduce the community improvement. Otherwise, they will never be able to master the game without that Mod. I'd have covered it at the end, as an "extra"

What does simming stand for?
@wombat41913 ай бұрын
It's building up cities, infrastructure, population, yields. Basically everything that's not related to military units, war and defense. I think the term comes from Sim City, as in you play the game as if it was Sim City and not Civ.
@fibonacci83 ай бұрын
It's a reference to the classic Maxis line of games: Sim City, Sim Earth, Sim Ant, etc. They were mostly single player sandbox style games where you got to build things up as you pleased with the option for natural disasters to keep things interesting. The idea was you got to simulate an entire city, or planet, or ant colony, etc.

Balance suggestion: entertainment complex give +1 amenities to all cities within 6 tiles, and the zoo and coliseum give +1. Or maybe entertainment complexes only give the bonus to cities within 3 tiles.
@ndrew95673 ай бұрын
the general consensus is that they're pretty balanced as they are at the moment. i do think that he underplays entertainment complexes a bit because using them properly is not easy, and high level players do make a couple early because the +2 amenities can still be strong enough to warrant making one entertainment complex to keep your district discount going. basically they're a high skill ceiling district but super situational so going over the niche situations where they are strong in early/midgame isn't worth the effort

Not gonna lie, who didn't know this? How could anyone actually think amenities aren't worth anything? Everyone knows that happy citizens makes for excellent output. It is that way in every civilization style video / board game.

5:25 - I'm not sure that's true. When I used the Civopedia in the game and read about amenities and happiness, I believe it says that you can have up to a specific number of the same resource before it no longer provides any benefit. I believe it was at least 2, up to 4. It might have said something about the repeat amenities only applying to other cities - ie, 2 cocoa tiles in the same city might only count as one, but if you have at least one other city, it will count toward an amenity in that city. Going to jump in the game later tonight and can check again.

«+4 to +5 is only +7.4% increase yields» this is not correct. It’s +4 to +5 amenities that increases yields +7.4 % in Civilization VI. You did not specify that it’s about amenities.
