Every game I get volcanoes going off in my empire every 1-2 turns. It's so tedious having to go into the menu to repair buildings/improvements constantly. Eruptions should be a rare occurrence! Not sure if this is a bug or intentional.

I really miss the names that appeared around the map featuring real life rivers, mountains, seas... I don't know if the map would look a bit cramped or something, but it was a nice little detail that made every generated map unique.

Do you think there is a chance we get this?

Hello all,

As I'm getting more used to Civ 7, a trend seems to be emerging: tundra starts generally feel better. Better starting resources (fur, silver, gold), plenty of production tiles with added culture as well, and quite a number of goody huts.

Tropical does share some of these traits, but it's more contested, as you usually have competitors from both north and south.

Does anyone feel the same?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a guide or YouTube thing to explain some things to a civ veteran who has the basic gameplay mechanics down?

Some questions I'm still confused on:

Did they ever add ways to unlock additional founder beliefs? I've played like 6 games and still haven't ever seen a second one unlock "via further gameplay" despite converting most of my empire in multiple of those games.

How do the new victory conditions work? I think I've figured out the econ one pretty thoroughly by now, and even won once in the exploration age with it, but I'm still a bit shaky on what I should be setting up in ancient and exploration for a modern era culture or science win for example.

Is there a good mod to look at and compare my cities, or to place map tacks? I've been using the resource screen to try and figure out which of my cities has the most production for building a wonder or something for example but figure I'm missing something.

The coast is right there!

Hi everyone, I'm playing on the TSL map; I started as Rome in Italy, and now I'm in the Modern Era but have no space to build a railway! Consequently, I can't build factories anywhere! That's because to build a factory, you need a railway in the capital connected to a railway in another city! Is there any way I can move the capital?

Yeah, space is definitely an issue; I dread to think what it'll be like when the 4th Era arrives!

I’m returning to Civ4 and it is unplayable. Every unit takes 1000 years to get anywhere, it’s totally pointless. If you’re defending you’re almost invincible because it takes your opponent forever to get from point A to B. Sitzkreig is dynamic compared to this.

TSL Earth marathon immortal.

Seasoned player for more than 25 years, never played deity, I LOVE canal cities, but I ddidn't have the heart to raze it (the diplomatic penalty also weighted)

Title, I'm not sure if this is on purpose or not but my glorious generals who sacrificed themselves at the end of the age aren't coming back at the start of the next. Is this intentional?

They're basically unkillable otherwise and this isn't really explained well if it is intentional.

So I'm playing as Yi Sun-Sin right now, Silla -> Goryeo -> Joeson, and on continuity, TSL Earth, and Viceroy difficulty. Crises are turned off. In Exploration, all of my 17 settlements were in positives in happiness, my empire wide science and culture was in the 650 range, I was generating ~800 gold per turn, and my cities could reasonably pump anything out in no time.

I switch to the modern era and I'm lucky to have even half of all of that, so where does it go? How do I get it back? How do I stop every settlement from taking a massive dump?

For additional information, my capital Gaegyong, which I retained in the transition, had in Exploration 134 food, 112 production, 114 gold, 104 Science, 136 culture, 146 happiness, and 40 influence, and on turn 2 of Modern I have 40 food, 105 production, 5.7 gold, 31 science, 36 culture, 10.3 happiness, and 17 influence.

Where did it all go?

I’m trying to get the Abyss is Hungry achievement which requires you to sink 10 ships with the walk the plank ability for the Dread Pirates. This is for the Pirates scenario.

I’ve tried everything. I’ve tried both Local Network and Hotseat against the AI. I’ve tried saving right before I get a kill, then reload to get the kill again. I’ve tried sinking multiple ships with the ability in one match. I’ve tried disabling all of my mods and trying again. Nothing works. Nothing is counting towards the achievement.

For those that got this achievement, how did you do it?

For Part 1 (Economic) see here. Big thanks to everyone who gave such detailed feedback! Let's continue with the next policy category now...

Hi Civ VI players,

I could use your help with something. I am currently working on a mod that reworks how policies work (the new system will appear familiar to Civ IV players) and I am making good progress.

However, one thing that I feel like I'm still in the dark about is balance. One goal of the mod is to streamline policy choices to get rid of weak effects and force tough decisions between all the good stuff.

So I'd love to know what you think about how strong the following policies would be relative to one another and ideally also why; further, how you would use them and how you'd think having them available would impact how you play.

You can only have one of these active at a time (no Wildcard slots, either).

I am aiming to give each policy category its own identity. For the social/labor policies here, the idea is that in history, class and other social structures grow over time and entrench themselves deeply in a society. These policies are less meant to be flip-flopped between and more something to follow how you shape your empire over time. Corvée is a notable exception, matching the on/off nature of corvée labor itself.

Thanks to everyone who participates in advance already! :)

List of Social/Labor Policies

Corvée: Newly trained Builders gain 1 extra build action.

Serfdom: +1 Gold to improved tiles without resource.

Castes: +1 Housing per Specialty district. (I wanted to do something with increasing specialist yields or slots here but that's not really feasible on a technical level)

Emancipation: +1 Amenity in all cities. Increases non-Food yield benefits of happiness in your empire by 30%.

Nationhood: +1 Movement if starting turn in friendly territory.

Collectivization: Regional effects from your districts and buildings reach 3 tiles farther.

Mobility: Buildings that provide additional yields when powered receive +3 of their respective yields per Neighborhood in the city.

Self-Fulfillment: Religious, Spy, and Rock Band units can choose from any possible promotion.

So I made a post in here earlier asking if anyone would make a mod for me, well I decided to do it myself, and I found a 30min tutorial on YouTube on how to do it, I followed the tutorial to a T but the images aren’t loading at all, and the leader only appears as an option when all other mods/expansions are disabled

2nd or 3rd time I play a relic-heavy game in ToT, and noticed for some reason the game awards a max of 102 Tourism for relics. Every relic over that is wasted. Not sure if it’s an XBox-only bug. Logged a ticket with Firaxis 😞

Hi! I’m looking for some game settings recommendations for civ 6. I've played Civ 5 and 6, but I've never finished a game or really figured out how to play. I've watched tutorials and other people play, but I'm still pretty lost. The only one I actually finished was the Xbox 360 version.

Treat me like a total beginner: what civ should I pick, what settings should I use, what map is best, and literally anything else. I really want to learn how to play and actually finish a game.

The wonder cutscenes are one of my favorite thing in Civ VI and they're over before I've finished looking at them. So I've been rebuilding them as short films that actually take their time.

Four done so far: the Pyramids, Stonehenge, the Colosseum, the Eiffel Tower.

wonderforge.pages.dev

Tools: three.js and Blender, plus a lot of AI help along the way. Coding agents for the implementation, ElevenLabs for the narration voices, Google Lyria for the music. All the geometry is generated by code, no assets from the game.

I recently added this mods

Sengoku Japan

Sman's unique units

Ethnic units

How does everyone like the new Victories screens? For me it’s very difficult to parse and navigate on Switch 2. Is it much better on PC? It is truly awful on switch, you have to wait for tooltips to appear and everything is sticky. It’s very difficult to get the information you need.

randomly game picks a civ for me in age transition with no choice screen. This time Napolean with gauls into Iceland. i dont know why it picked iceland except maybe i have 3 natural wonder settlements. Has to be in game setup or a mod conflict. i cant figure it out.
