battle cam not working or absent?

[DrDraker]

hi.

in civ 5 the cam followed all visable battles on the game. but civ 6 just sits there with the screen not moving even though there is battle going on just a little bit to some direction. And within a visable hex. (maybe u have a scout there or something.

How do i activate battlecam? or is it not in this game?

thanx

I think it only shows battles your units are involved in, although you can hear some of the other fights

I indeed miss this too. Wish all visible AI actions would be listed in a log to the right (like City state notification, etc) and the cam zoomed to that happening when you scroll trought.
Including AI movements, like a AI scout/horsemen just took a quick look at one of your cities. (AI was moving out of Fog of War, into a visible hex of a city, and back into the Fog.)

That would be a huge help. I also would like to turn it on/off if I so wish. Or at least get informed when enemy-civs are nearing my borders (barbs, CSs and civs...) always...

lets start a rebellion. we go to firaxis HQ and hit it with rocks untill they implement this feature.

no but serious i hope the devs see this and make it an option at least because u can not plan anything without seeing whats happening in the world. I mean whats the point of having scouts if u dont get to see what they see?

bad fireaxis

no dinner tonight.

I find this fairly annoying at best; you should have at least an option to view all visible AI actions including movement. It's beyond annoying in certain instances--while the screen will pan to battles involving your units, it won't pan to show AI missionaries/apostles spreading religion to your cities. I know I should be more attentive (and I try to be now that I am aware of the problem), but it's easy to miss until suddenly your city banner has the wrong religion icon.

I'm not sure I miss it as much as the rest of you (although I do miss it a bit). I recall times in V where I'd have to sit through a bomber animation x5 and a few other animations for some battle on another continent that I had no interest in, all because I had a unit wandering through.

u can always choose quick battle if you dont wanna see the animation...
