Infrequent Random Events?

[lou4gehrig]

My friend and I played a LAN game without installing the 3.0.2 patch and we had tons of random events occurring non-stop. However, since the installation of the 3.0.2 and 3.0.3 patches, we noticed there are alot less. I can go 50 turns without anything occurring. Is there a setting I can change to increase the frequency?

Well how many games have you played? I've played about 15 since BTS came out (Many retired <1500AD... loss), but some games I get many events (12+) and some games maybe only 3 the whole game (and crappy ones at that).

The events are mostly tied to specific buildings, unit types, improvements, diplomatic situations etc. If these are present you get more events than otherwise. For example, in a game where there were multiple religious factions vying for power I had the "religious wedding offends civ" event multiple times. I think in general playing a builder will see more events than a pure warmonger.

As Solver has stated, some events are more likely to happen in a game than others. Additionally, many events are bound to specific preconditions which have to be met.

So, different numbers of events per game are nothing to wonder about.
