I would really like the ability to bribe other civs to go to war outside of Joint War. Posted: 28 Feb 2018 09:23 AM PST In civ 5, making deals with one civ to fight another was massively fun and added an exciting element of strategy. I hope the devs put it back in Civ 6 soon. [link] [comments] | ||
Game needs more forms of indirect aggression. Posted: 28 Feb 2018 12:38 PM PST At the moment, there are are only two modes, war and peace. You only have the two interactions with other empires. Once spies come along you can start engaging in indirect warfare via hampering the enemy's production/income or boosting yourself. Spies though feel extremely passive in nature, you send them to do the thing, then hope your first spy doesn't proc the 1% to die every single game like they do. I feel there should be black flagged units like the privateers or a cavalry raider unit, that can let you go in and actively attack the enemy even during peace times without directly declaring war. Adding a "raid" CB, that lets you go in and pillage the enemy country side (but you can't take cities), would also be extremely nice, as a way to attack the enemy without ever war being wars to the death like they tend to be.

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 03:54 PM PST I have sunk some serious time into Rise and Fall and whilst I generally like the new loyalty system I do think it needs a little bit of tweaking. Some comments and observations:
-It's especially annoying as AI wont trade or even accept cities as gifts, even with distracts and luxuries due to loyalty. Smart, but annoying when they think your entire empire for a painting is a good trade deal.
I just thought I would share my observations with Reddit in case anyone has anything to add or comment! [link] [comments] | ||
There's nothing in the game that makes me think, "if I choose this path, I should play tall" Posted: 28 Feb 2018 02:12 PM PST ...And I believe the game is missing out. First, let me explain what 'tall strategies' are for people that don't know. It means limiting your cities to very few and growing them to absurdly large population sizes(tall cities). The contrast to this is the "wide strategy" which is just to found/conquer as many cities as you can and cover a large amount of territory. Civ VI is all about going wide, and there's nothing wrong with that. From reading all the comments in my thread yesterday, I realized that there's a split opinion about Audience Chamber even between players looking to play tall. On one side is a group of people that will play tall anyways, and Audience Chamber is fantastic for them because it does definitely make tall play better. On the other side is a group of people that are looking for a good reason to play tall, and for them Audience Chamber falls short. I belong in the latter half. With R&F, tall strategies are more viable than ever and that's great. However, all of these things are just things that make you go, "If I'm playing tall, I should choose this", and none of these goes the other way. I have come to realize that there isn't anything inherently wrong with Audience Chamber, but it just felt so close to something that makes me go, "if I choose this, I should play tall". For example, Civ V had the Tradition tree and various civilizations like India and Ethiopia. Unfortunately, I cannot think of a single aspect of the game in Civ VI that makes me feel the same. I'm desperately looking for a good excuse to play tall other than 'because I feel like it', and the game doesn't deliver. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Feb 2018 09:45 AM PST It was a very long and hard (no pun intended) game. Singleplayer, Emperor difficulty (I usually play King) Earth scenario, lots of civs, very long gameplay. I was Boudicca, had to fight my way inland to have a decent amount of land. Resources were scarce, food tiles were kinda hard to come by and my early development was definitely slow. The mediterranean was a mess as usual. Two civilizations there were eliminated during the classic times, and France had invaded Africa and captured Songhai's capital. I scouted the continent and saw good oportunities, so I decided to slow Napoleon's progress by supporting Songhai and liberating their capital. I kept Songhai under my protection, built a solid relationship, pillaged Napoleon's territory two or three times to slow him down further and settled two cities on the west coast. I secretly undermined all other strong civs by financing their smaller enemies (even city states) and providing units, so I could make them waste time and resources without any risks and nobody could hold me accountable. That enabled me to catch up with the stronger civs and eventually my economy and production capacity became really scary. Then, on the dawn of the renaissance, WWI began. At this point, I was powerful enough to turn war into profit so I didn't care, my territories in Europe were pretty solid and my southern colonies in Africa were heavily manned, had a great navy which I could maneuver to close the mediterrenean and had Songhai territory as a shield. A couple more civs disappeared, most civs in America didn't get involved ('cause no Pearl Harbor, right?) but Carthage, my old ally, commited a lethal mistake: they took a city state I was very fond of. (I'm very into roleplay) WWI was over, my tech was booming during the renaissance and the world became divided into two major powers: the Celts (me) and the Shoshone. Both me and the Shoshone had reached the Industrial Era (although I was several steps ahead and generating way more tech) when WWII exploded in our faces. In fact, we used to trade a lot, we were not enemies and didn't have anything to do with what caused the conflict. During this war, I revealed my necromancer powers and brought death to the greedy little bastards trying to acquire territory around the globe. I waged war on whoever had ever took down another civ and city state, pierced through their territory, liberated and brought back from the dead ancient civilizations and city states, and then spent the shitload of money and troops I had to arm them to the teeth. My undead armies doomed their old enemies, and that increased the gap between the two major powers and the rest of the world even further, as conflicts escalated and the territories became diverse once again. WWII never really ended, although eventually my enemies asked for peace. My necromancer powers had lit the world's fuse and there was no coming back. Me and the shoshone thrived as the rest of the world collapsed in several wars with me supporting one side or the order as I saw fit. The Shoshone soon became scared of my technological and militar superiority, started building up armies and spying. I took countermeasures and developed my military power further. Cold war took place and I had dozens of tanks, troops, planes and the mediterranean and african navies restricting the Shoshone to Asia. One day, they decided to attack my allies on southern Asia. As usual, I financed their enemies, but this time they were powerful enough to take the whole Asia, so I had to act directly against them for the fist time. WWIII struck, tanks rolled into Asia, paratroopers rained from the skies, nuclear missiles brought doom to their major cities. Still, they were able to put up a fight, but that was enough to leave them too weak to resume dominating territory, as I had softened them enough for the other civs and city states be able to fight back. At this point, it was safe for me to make peace and leave them to deal with their new foes, now reinforced with new troops I gave. That was the final blow to their progress and I became the major power. I completely dominated the late game and achieved tech victory, but my true power was basically being a dick, encouraging war, providing troops (specially to city states, who even took other civ's cities LOL) and supporting resistances all around the globe to prevent the other powers from developing. This game can teach you a lot about how the world works, and now I'm pretty sure there's a Necromancer out there who is the most inexcusable dick you can think of. [EDIT] Typo. [link] [comments] | ||
Has Civilization Ever Inspired You To Learn an Untraditional Language? Posted: 28 Feb 2018 11:19 AM PST By untraditional I mean something like Zulu, Seneca or Shoshone which have fewer than 1 million speakers, not like Russian, French or Mandarin. [link] [comments] | ||
Me and a couple of friends are playing civ 5 multiplayer. Decided to make some maps. Turn 290. Posted: 27 Feb 2018 10:38 PM PST

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 03:42 PM PST Don't know if this is a bug or what, but on the tsl Europe map included with the Rise and Fall dlc, Huey Teocalli is missing. Under military tactics there is nothing but the pikeman icon and I can't build the wonder. I have no mods enabled and all dlc enabled. Anyone else had this problem or know if the wonder is disabled on tsl Europe? [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Feb 2018 02:05 AM PST Just allowing you to leverage City State armies at half gold and giving them a bit of a boost is super weak in comparison to the Intelligence Agency or the Chapel, which both are much better in comparison. I think it should grant you +3 Envoys upon being built, and also speed up Envoy acquisition. [link] [comments] | ||
loyalty should scale with ages Posted: 28 Feb 2018 10:58 AM PST i just had a super frustrating game where i was in the middle of 6 ai civs, they all had their 3 cities before i had my settler out which meant that my second city is instantly rebelling -- even before I have a governor civic. Imo loyalty pressure should have a scaling factor off .5 and increase every era by .2. It should be harder to conquer later era civilizations without rebellion but in the stone age it shouldnt.

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 11:50 AM PST Hey all, I'd like to start some discussion topics on some mechanics of the game. The governor system) seems like a good place to start as it confused the hell out of me first, but now I've seemed to not be completely lost. So, your early civics give you two titles, and the ability to construct the government building. The government building offers an additional title, as well as the ability to construct another building that helps with expansion, tall cities, or conquest. As far as what I use my governor titles on, I've settled around 3-4 major strategies.
I have found that controlling key city states (either for their bonuses or for their strategic location) with Amani to be pretty valuable in the mid game. I haven't found much use for Victor outside of being able to place him quickly in recently conquered cities that might have a loyalty issue. Which of these strategies do you tend to use most often? What haven't I mentioned? [link] [comments] | ||
Colonization in Civ 6 it's viable? Posted: 28 Feb 2018 04:19 AM PST I mean, in another continent, trying to get some bonus of colonial policies. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Feb 2018 10:27 AM PST I ask this because, in essence, we are influencing the local government with envoys anyway. This is the scenario: I am the Cree, Persia and I have been vying for control of Mohenjo-Daro since the beginning of time. MD is flipping between Persian, Chinese, and Cree influence. Most of the time I am on top but Persia Suzed it right before a big war broke out between the Persian/Chinese alliance and my contingent (the bro-patrol of Scotland, Sumer and of course myself). MD is important to me because as the Cree I am spamming Mekewaps and building high-populous cities and I could use all the housing I can get. I don't particularly want to own MD and I would prefer the Suzerain bonus. So ideally I would like to conquer it and liberate it so I can become Suzerain. Add to this the fact that MD is the only army actually giving me trouble since they border me and have a fair amount of units. But, since they are independent at this time my only options are to keep the city or raze it. I think it is more realistic to have the option to "liberate" it even though it is independent. I say this because obviously it jives with my strategy, but in real-life I think the option to conquer the city and then install a favorable government is something that would be and has been done in real life. Not to mention it could cause an emergency which can prolong the war for 30-40 more turns even though the war is all but over. TLDR: if you take a CS you should have the option of "liberating" it and becoming the Suzerain even if the CS is already independent. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Feb 2018 07:46 PM PST My friend and I just started playing Civ 6 together but around turn 60 or so he starts to DeSync and resync to the game like every other turn. It's not too much of a problem for me but it seems to give him less time for his turns and it is a little unfair. Is there any fix for this? I have seen a lot of old threads on it but I don't seem to see a solution. It is really weird too considering we live in the same apartment.... [link] [comments] |
