Facebook, trying to control the world...

What image could be behind that blue box that would be a recognizable clue? At that resolution the people on the podium are about 2 pixels high.

My guess right now is that whatever civ founds the World Congress gets their flag on the stage, and it was Venice or Shoshone this time around.

I don't know quite how a leader could be a giveaway in such a setting. But obviously Firaxis feels that it can. And I doubt they would box it out in the Featurette, so I think whatever it is is going to be a hint. If they are willing to drop a hint tomorrow but not today, then they are close to the final release.

That would make a lot of sense actually.

Yes, but that's quite weird place for a flag. Anyway, just one more day

FWIW, the real UN does not have a flag on that location on the podium.

Example:

I think flag is the most likely explanation, If it is a small flag on the edge of the table/podium. The blue square would be bigger than whatever it is trying to cover up.

It still seems like the type of picture that wouldn't have leaks though. The splash pages and victory images have had things that weren't included in the main game before.

I suspect that whatever the blue square is covering is not discernible in the particular frame they are showing. However the video would continue to zoom in on the podium, thereby making the hint visible. The blue box is just a hook to say that there is a hint in the video.

Thankfully us at Civfanatics only need 1 pixel to deduce unknown civs, game mechanics and the best recipe for tacos ever.

 

[tranger66]

It would be a nice touch but a lot of work if they had the specific leader figure in the image for diplomatic victories.

24 more to go!

 

[InsanelyApple]

3 more to go, people.

A guy in a headdress?

I can't wait to see the reaction on there when Venice and the Shoshone are finally confirmed by Firaxis. The rage...!

(I am a bad, bad person. )

I'm willing to bet there will be people guessing the next civ leader is someone who has been on every vanilla version since civ I, like Ghandi.

400 has been reached.

That would make a lot of sense actually.

This just looks like a screenshot from an intro video. No need to believe that this is in-game footage.

Exactly like this post was -> https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151646326925359

At what time can we expect it?

I can't tell what they had behind the blue box with my iPad. Someone with a big PC monitor will have to figure it out.

Maria I......ooooh I like how she waves her sceptre around when she mad! Hehe kinda sexy!

The only interesting thing I noticed was at around 0:35 trade units moved underneath barbarians, implying that you have to take an actual action to pillage the trade routes, not just attack the caravan.

and the mystery to the square was .... nothing
