Enter a Brave New World

Well, it will be 1 AM for me :cry: :sleep: I'm so exited I will try to stay awake for it. Hope it will be worth it. BTW, it will be friday for me when it's launched.
 
Posting it at Midnight in the UK? Ah well, I'll have to get the news tomorrow. Even "liked" it to hear of it early, but never mind.
 
Hey everyone! Thanks for unlocking the video asset early, I am really excited to be posting it today. Here with some insider info: As Montezumas Hat surmised, we will be posting it in the afternoon, around 4:00pm PDT. Keep your eyes peeled!

4:00pm PDT! But that's 7:00pm EDT! Don't you people at Firaxis realize there's playoff hockey on?
 
Just watch it between periods.

But that's when I switch to the baseball game. See, this is what I get for being so eclectic in my hobbies and interests.
 
Eh, you can follow a baseball game muted. There's about two minutes between things happening. These are featurettes, so you should be able to squeeze it in without much difficulty.

You're right. I could probably watch the entire featurette between 2 pitches.
 
Four unrevealed civs and a featurette each week... If we're lucky, they'll use a new civ each week to explore a feature. Something like:

Ideologies with civ 6
World congress with civ 7
Great works and tourism with civ 8
Archaeology with civ 9
 
Well, the release date is July 9 which means we have about eight weeks left. While they certainly could reveal a Civ in each, they also have four more weeks to fill.
 
Bloody hell, if I've got my math right that's 6 pm central time and I will therefore be at work. Guess I won't get to see it until I get home... I'm gonna be antsy today D:
 
I just don't see a civ reveal this week. That's the kind of thing they let the magazines do for the clicks. This week will probably be a new mechanic or a scenario.

Here are the possibilities:

1) Tourism - we've seen the tourism overview screen, but not the buildings
2) Ideologies - We have hardly scratched the surface here. We would like to see more Tenets and the technicals on city flipping.
3) World Congress - We saw the Rev video which showed the resolutions. We haven't seen a vote take place yet or the bribery.
4) New generic units - Bazooka? Are there any others?
5) Archeology - we haven't actually seen them dig up an artifact or make a landmark.
6) Known civs - We haven't seen them play as Assyria, Zulu, or Brazil.
7) changed civs - We don't know if France is the only one.
8) scenarios - They did show some scenarios for G&K last year. None yet so far for BNW.
9) Exploration & aesthetics - we know next to nothing about them
 
Yeah, my preference are Ideologies and Scenarios. I'll add New Social Policies as well.

Tourism has been covered before in connection to Great Works and it'll likely be covered again in relation to ideologies, so it might not need its own feature. World Congress actually seemed decently featured in that last walkthrough so I'm not so interested in that.

Changed Civs would be nice too. Provided it's not just France (in which case they should give us the info, but we don't need a whole thing on it).
 
And you don't love me? Disgusting. :)

Canada UA: Hat of America: lose culture with each military unit. :goodjob:

I swear, at first I read "pants of Canada" in reference to 'murica.

But that should be America's new UA. :lol:

Hey all. I have brought these concerns up with the team. It is hard to know the best time to release something given the world wide popularity, but I hear ya.

Today's video will be posted at 4:00pm PDT. I will let you know if we can change the schedule up for future things. Thanks for letting me know what you all thought about the timing. :)

It's nice to know you're listening to the grumbles. Thanks, Kate. :)
 
I think they should show us the ideology next, is the biggest feature in the xpack and we havent see it yet
