That would be the ideal solution.I didn't get the impression a 4th age is coming. Only that more content would be added to later modern age. It makes no sense for a completely different age/era with new civs.
Not really opposed to that, especially if one of the victory paths would be a global polity.Crazy thougt: international blocs/organizations in the style of NATO, European Union, Commonwealth of Nations, ASEAN and similar as the fourth age civilizations. You could even have multiple civilizations evolve into teh same block and then they can vie with one another to have the greater influence over their blocs.
It would, but that would involve a complete redoing of the modern age…not that I would object, but it might be hard to stuff the whole space age/information age and atomic age into something that just barely gets into radio.That would be the ideal solution.
If Canada ever appears in Civ 7, it should selectable from France as well as from England. And, frankly, probably from the Shawnee as well.I've been thinking all along they'll have a 4th age. There is plenty of stuff to add.
Rail stations let you auto transport units 20 tiles away. In the 4th age there will be airports that can transport with no limit.
The 4th age will have environmental stuff. The internet, satellites, more space exploration, tourism, consumerism, and, of course, giant death robots, heh.
I think there is plenty of room for 4th age civs too. With the caveat, as someone mentioned in the live stream thread, that they let 3rd age civs stick around.
Rome -> Normans -> England -> Australia/South Africa/Canada
Goths -> Holy Roman Empire -> Prussia -> Germany
Egypt -> Abbasids -> Ottomans -> Saudi Arabia
Persia -> Mongols -> Mughals -> Pakistan
I really hope so. From what I've seen, the Modern Age seems to be the least exciting to me, and I hope they expand on it without adding a fourth era. I did quite like the return of ideologies, though.I didn't get the impression a 4th age is coming. Only that more content would be added to later modern age.

I think Canada in Age 3 wouldn't be too forced. It would work reasonably well. However, being too young, Australia would feel a bit out of place.If Canada ever appears in Civ 7, it should selectable from France as well as from England. And, frankly, probably from the Shawnee as well.
I think its more likely that if there is a 4th era they will be the types of civs we saw in Beyond EarthI've been thinking all along they'll have a 4th age. There is plenty of stuff to add.

That depends on what the 4th age involves…does it start withI think its more likely that if there is a 4th era they will be the types of civs we saw in Beyond Earth
The way they're approaching eras feels like adding another would be odd. I'd rather them extend the existing eras because so far we have multiple modern countries that would not exist in any way in the last ageThat depends on what the 4th age involves…does it start with
Cold War+MAD
UN
Decolonization
then
present civs are needed (or past…include the Soviets)
if the first civic is Social Media and your starting military unit is a Drone Swarm, future fictional civs would be ok
I would agree that I’d prefer a 3rd Age that covers more (1750-2050 instead of 1750-1950) but it would have to be a complete redesign of the 3rd ageThe way they're approaching eras feels like adding another would be odd.

Australia is a good candidate for a 4th age Civ.I think Canada in Age 3 wouldn't be too forced. It would work reasonably well. However, being too young, Australia would feel a bit out of place.
