Hello

firaxis was talking about that spies can now steal great works. at minute 5:58 it starts talking about it.
I really had some concerns about it. In gods and king they implented tech stealing really interesting at immortal and deity but on emperor or below its just a annoyance because the AI will steal all your techs i've had a expensive tech stolen just when it was researched when i had a LV 3 spy here is my original post about this :
Stealing techs wouldn't be so bad if you could counter it with youre own spies but you dont. it seems like counter espionage doesnt work. i've had lv 3 spies who kept failing to kill a enemy spy.
The enemy spies are at a advantage because its more likly they succeed and if they do they get promoted so its harder to kill them... while defensive spies dont do a good job they often dont kill enemy spies.
So yeah now i have the same concerns about stealing great works.. Your defensive spies even at high levels just fail missarable killing enemy spies and most AI succeed and steal youre great works...
Hopefully they make the percent of catching a enemy spy 100% so you have 50% succeeding in stealing a great work either the enemy has a spy or not to defend.
To be honest i've never been a big fan of espionage in civ 4 and civ 5 because there wasn't a good defensive espionage system it favored the people who are behind.
youre spies on counter espionage aren't efficient they dont catch enemy spies even at high levels its annoying. and you can't level them up a lot because they wont catch a lot of spies and the enemy gets more upgraded spies because of succeeding
