    Removing Luxury Resources

    I agree that you should be able to harvest luxury resources. Since you can harvest many other resources, I had thought you could also harvest luxury resources so in one of my first games I put down a new city two tiles from a mountain with a luxury in between. The water supply was limited but my...

    Let's talk performance

    I have an GTX 760 with a 1440p ultrawide monitor. It gets 25 fps in Civ VI which sounds terrible for a first person shooter but this is a turn based strategy game and so it looks just as great as something running 60 fps. Only time things are bad is the intro movie audio doesn't sync with the...

    Slash and Burn Rainforests

    Out of context this probably sounds horrible but good is there in keeping rainforests around? Why not just cut them down and building farms? The production and food bonus from chopping rainforest is a good way to rush a city and the farm adjacency bonus outstrips the value of keeping the...

    Civ 6 seems way too easy ?!

    Another thing the AI needs to do better at is expansion. In Civ V, the most dangerous AIs to play against did not have the most powerful unique abilities but were the ones that were programmed expand like crazy. Left out of your reach on the other side of the world, they would be a huge...

    Submarines can't go under Ice

    Has anyone else noticed that submarines cannot go under ice anymore? I have not tested nuclear subs yet. This is kind of annoying since that was a cool feature in Civ V. Although I do like that most maps I have played on generate a path through the ice for all ships.

    Why can't I build Inquisitors?

    You do not build religious units but purchase them with faith points. Use the "Purchase" button in the upper right corner of the "Choose Production" tab. This should have Missionaries (req Shrine) and Apostles (req Temple) plus any buildings that your religion can build. For the Inquisitor...

    Amenities and how many I need? When is it safe to sell?

    My understanding is that luxuries provide 4 points of amenities but that a single city can only use one point per luxury type. What that means is if you want to go tall you need to have many different types of luxuries, and if you go wide you can get by with duplicates. If you go wide and tall...

    Did the Rollout ruin your enthusiasm?

    Nope, the more I see, the more I want to play the game.

    Avoiding the flood of previews

    I have been watching as many videos as I can, reading through most of the forum threads and websites that compiled details about the game to get a solid understand of how things work. I also cannot wait for the game to come out so I feel like I am play vicariously through the let's play videos...

    Money

    I was going to start a thread about how the trading post terrain improvement in Civ V (or the even better cottage Civ IV improvement) is no longer in the game and what are the implications. Granted I rarely build trading posts outside jungles and tundra tiles but it was still part of the system...

    Gamestar German preview Video - packed with info

    This is good to know. Most of the youtubers couldn't figure this out.

    Railways?

    From a perspective of trade and military transport, during the 19th and early 20th century, railways were far superior to roads and critical part of the industrial infrastructure. That changed with modern roads and automobile transport but it is a huge leap technologically and historically to...

    Railways?

    My understanding is there is a number of road upgrades; however, I was hoping railroads would be one of them. If nothing else they should be in the game since railroads have been in every Civ game since the beginning and they were a major part of history. It would be sad to lose them. The Steam...

    Strategic resources in Civ 6

    This is a good post. I was wondering about the details and will be curious to see how it plays out. In general I like the concept of strategic resources; however, there is always a balancing act between making them powerful enough to be relevant while not overpowered such that those without...

    The fog of war is ugly.

    I like the aesthetics of the paper map so I don't think it is ugly; however, agree that this appears to make it less functional since it is not always clear what is unexplored vs what is simply out of view. From the many let's plays I have watched, it is disappointing how hard it is to tell the...

    Civilization VI Specialists

    Do you have references to these numbers? I do not see these posted on the wikia (http://civilization.wikia.com/wiki/District_(Civ6)) and the numbers on Civilization VI Analyst (http://well-of-souls.com/civ/civ6_cities.html#districts) unit labels do not match up. For example, on Civilization...

    Civilization VI Specialists

    With the introduction of city districts, Civ VI has the possibility to bring back specialized cities strategies with focused investments and yields for different areas similar to Civ IV; however, I have not seen much detail in how specialists are handled in the game. Is there any information...

    Auto Testing Scenario

    Thanks for the link. That is exactly what I am looking for.

    Auto Testing Scenario

    I was wondering if there was a way to run the game where the AI controls all the civs and you just watch. I want to have the computer run a scenario multiple times so I can try to balance out the different sides but it is too time consuming to do this manually. It is an earth map so I have...

    Where is the patch!!

    I keep hearing about this patch that was suppose to come out with all its fixes and how many stages it have gone through but where is it, what is the target date, what is the hold up. If you got more to fix, fix it later and get the first patch out.
