City States and Patch 2

[Kopernikus1979]

Hi,

in the last Patch 2 for PC (etc.) it is written that "City States will now turn into Friendly Independent Powers on Age Transition instead of disappearing completely. They will also now start with more units in Exploration and Modern Ages.". But I just had my transition to Age of Exploration and all City States disappeared. I was a sovereign over 5 city states. So that part of the patch is not working?

It worked for me last night on a save that was started before the patch.

After having 1 turn in the new age, they re-appeared.

After having 1 turn in the new age, they re-appeared.

Yes, IPs spawn on turn 2 each age.

Surely this cannot be the desired outcome. I started the Modern Age and I noticed there were empty lands so bought a load of settlers on the first turn and the all IP's appeared!

I did the exact same mistake. Only one in the many, many details that lead me to think that the game needed a lot of polishing before release.

Yeah, new CS come back in the same spots as the old ones (although not from the CS that spawn from the barbarian invasion crisis, incidentally) on the 2nd turn. It's annoying it comes after you pick your bonuses, it can make you change which attribute point you were thinking of going for, if I knew if there were going to be a bunch of nearby CS or if none spawn in those spots. I do wonder a little if any actually new CS come in or if only the returning ones do - even after the ones came back in place, I didn't see any new ones on my continent this time. I can't know which ones existed in the distant lands or not.
