[GS] Link Your 2k Account to Unlock the Scout Cat in Civ VI

[Aristos]

Sad that historically she couldn't do that at all. Richard and John were at each others throats!

And no cats for me. Incentive not to link my account.

Word. And if I could just make Firaxis un-link its 2K account...

Cannibal.

Fun fact: falcons are more-closely related to parrots than eagles.

So you are calling @Eagle Pursuit a parrot?

This reminded me of a unit @Vuldacon created for Civ III several years ago:

I think we've found our GDR counter! What wonders the future era holds

I thought EP was an eagle.

 

[Giskler]

Linked my account, but there's no cat DLC

Edit: I'm a ******. "available when GS launches"

 

[Miravlix]

WTH!

Scout's with house cats... I like cats, I have one, but this is just beyond stupid.

It's not even remotely realistic, maybe if they had used a big cat of some kind or find another animal less impossible to use for scouting? A Bird of some kind perhaps, falcon would have been fine with me.

How about a trained Ferret. Would that be acceptable?

I just ordered Beastmaster with my birthday money!

Now that you mention it.. some Fanatics have a tendency to repeat stuff often enough.

... or else they wouldn't be true fanatics.

 

[tedhebert]

Cute ... but NO... I'm with @Aristos and @treadwin on this one...

 

[Onii-chan]

I'm sold

Thanx but no thanx: I already have two cats, and both of them sit in front of the comer screen when they want attention (they obviously know me too well!).

This does bring up some more questions:

1. If you have a Cat Scout as Egypt, do you get a big black Bastis cat model that provides extra Amenities?
2. Since cats should be a basic anti-mouse unit, does having Cat Scouts as India make the Varu more powerful?
3. Does Persia get very fluffy cats with their scouts?
4. Does having Cat Scouts mean that Siam and blue-eyed evil cartoon cats are in the next expansion or DLC?

I demand that the dogs in the normal scout be German Shepherds! . . .

No, they should be schnauzers, and once you get to the Atomic Era they get little packs on their backs with antenna sticking out that make them antitank weapons: "Tank Destroyer Dogs" - but only if you are playing Russia.

And as long as we're adding extraneous animals:

How about the infamous Wild Gerbils of Ethiopia, now being claimed as the possible origin of the Black Plague that spread from them to rats and thence to humans. I can't believe they missed the chance of adding them to the Black Death Scenario.

How about the Hamster as a Trade Good? This is actually both historical and hysterical . . .

 

[Aristos]

So, instead of Panzerfaust, we get Schnauzerfaust?

That would be in line with this nonsense, for sure...

 

[Leathaface]

If you get the Cat Scout, will that replace the normal Scout?

 

[Onii-chan]

Well uh I followed the instructions but nothing changed. Just started a new game too just in case it was needed and built a scout but it's still a boring old dog

I feel cheated

Edit: Wait it's a DLC, guess I'll need to enable it too o:

 

[Leathaface]

Apparently the Cat Scout will only be unlocked tomorrow.

 

[Onii-chan]

Apparently the Cat Scout will only be unlocked tomorrow.

Yeah I was just thinking it might only be a thing after Gathering Storm's official release. Doesn't seem to work now at least

As if the civ community wasn't already divided enough … now we have Scout Dog users and Scout Cat users.

Someone set up a sub-forum quick to segregate all the pending "My Scout's better than your Scout" threads …
