[SammyKhalifa]

i wonder what my neighbors are thinking with this cranked on my tv

 

[Eagle Pursuit]

Got some throat-singing this time around.

 

[Kaan Boztepe]

is that singing a hint for kublai khan?

 

[SammyKhalifa]

is anyone getting audio only?

 

[TreVor_ish]

No Ley Lines in snow

 

[kryat]

Rationalism and like policies now require 15+ population and 4+ adjacency

Wisselbanken now also applies to suzerained city states

 

[MrRadar]

Some takeaway: all bugs should be reported at : 2kgam.es/helpme2k
I asked, if they looked at bug reports here, at Civfanatics, and they said no. So all that subforum is useless?

 

[TreVor_ish]

Major adjacencies from Ley Lines

Major adjacencies from Ley Lines

I posted in the wrong thread. beat me to it. I'm glad this is better.

To be fair, reaching 4+ adjacency for Campus and TS requires a much, much greater investment than 3+, unless you are Australia, Korea or Maya, or having a lucky map generation RNG.

Hope it feels right in the actual playing.

Major adjacencies from Ley Lines

Good change, but I'm afraid this change alone cannot rescue Ley Lines from their current awkward position.

Edit: The generation of Ley Lines also changed, they will not spawn in snow any more, and will be more likely to spawn in normal terrains.

Inca seems like they're the best at taking advantage of this now.

Rough Rider Teddy for this.

 

[TreVor_ish]

Magus - renamed third promotion for Hermetic Order - gives yields on Ley Lines based on Great People Points? Interesting
EDIT:
Or rather generated?
EDIT2:
so every scientist give+1science on all Ley Lines
every Great Writer/Artist/Musician give+1culture on all Ley Lines etc...

 

[Disgustipated]

I'm glad they changed professional sports inspiration req's, I almost never get that boost. I prefer water parks since they don't take up a valuable land tile. The other boost changes didn't seem necessary imho.

That's too bad.

 

[Disgustipated]

20% bonus for ecstatic cities! wow

 

[8housesofelixir]

Highest Amenities bonus is now +20%, and negative levels are back to what they were.

Great. Really, really great.

Conflicting messaging from them here. I don't think that's true since Dennis himself at one point was very active in the Bug Reports forum, responding to people, asking for saves, etc.

 

[MrRadar]

Major adjacency from ED to Theatre Squares.

Highest Amenities bonus is now +20% percent, and negative levels are back to what they were.

Great. Really, really great.

Ugh, really? This is entirely the wrong direction IMO...the last thing the game needs is MORE yields...
