[LP] Civilization VI: Leader Pass - Discussion Thread

[OmegaDestroyer]

Super unimpressed by the handling of this release.

 

[Jandos]

New leaders are fine, but I think I will actually skip the whole thing until (if any) any meaningful balance/bug fixes will release with it.

 

[Pfeffersack]

Wait, do we have official patch notes?

Honestly - this question (and in case their content) is much more important to me as that when I will get technical access to my free leaders.

Looks like they figured it out on my end. I'm not an owner of the actual Anthology, but do have all the DLC.

Edit: Nevermind. I can't actually get it through checkout. "An unexpected error has occurred. Your purchase has not been completed. Please wait a few minutes and try again."

Just checked out of curiosity. The LP shows up in the Anthology pack for me, without a price tag. Though attempting to buy it results in an error, just like it did before with the Teddy and Catherine Personas.

You don't need the anthology, just all DLC, no matter in what way you bought them .
But glad to hear that it's now rolled out to more people .

Seems like the patch (after the one that broke everything) wasn't done correctly to Linux. I have almost all my DLC apart from the New Frontiers Pass and the gamemodes (apart from Apocalypse, strangely enough), and the intro screen seems to be different to what it was before. It's noticeably quieter. But I still have Gathering Storm and Rise & Fall loaded. version 1.0.1.104 (194096)

Edit: It seems like that patch just never arrived. Ignore this!

Yup, it produces an error at this point. :/

But it's progress.

People review-bombing this on Steam is just sad.

I'm pretty sure that means you have it installed, you just can't access it yet. After all, you can't buy something you already have.

I forgot this was coming out and started a new civ 5 game yesterday. When I saw the civ 6 DL I thought "oh damn, guess I should drop that 5 game and go to 6". But the way this thread's going... I'll probably have time to finish my 5 game

I don't own the Anthology. It looks to me like us non-Anthology/all-DLC owners will have to 0-dollar "purchase" the Anthology to get the Leader Pass.

(...or pay 20 bucks for the single DLC of course, but that would be dumb.)

Not entirely - Civ allows people who don't own the DLC to play with it in MP with owners who do, so it has to have the files somewhere... I never knew this because... I always buy it Day 1 xD

I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but I'll be the bearer of bad news.

That error has existed since the launch of Anthology. The Teddy and Catherine Personas appear as "free" in the Anthology for people who didn't buy the NFP bundle, but attempting to get it results in an error.

The only difference now is that this error is also including the Leader Pass.

This is what I mean: as you can see, in my case Catherine also isn't faded, yet I have been waiting months now for them to fix it (AT LEAST LET ME BUY IT! JUST LET ME PAY YOU MONEY TO COMPLETE MY COLLECTION!)

Anyway, who knows, maybe those two Personas will be fixed with the rest of it...

 

[The Swede]

Oh, yeah. I forgot!
Never play on patchday.....

Well dang. I do have the two personas from whatever bundle they came with though.

In that case I don't think you have anything to worry about, other than to wait.

The files should already have been dowloaded to everyone that received the second 5.04GB hotfix update. You should have a folder called "GreatNegotiators" inside the game's DLC folder. It's just a matter now of Firaxis working through everyone to determine who meets the requirements to activate the DLC (i.e. show that they own it).

Not gonna lie. When they announced they were gonna be releasing this into March, my first thought was "I guess I'll be playing Civ in March then".
