Next patch anticipation thread

Well, I guess then you will be disappointed. No matter what shows up, you will find your flaws. You already set yourself up for it.

I expect others to be disappointed as well.

In these situations, marketing / social media decides when to release something, not the developers, and so the developers already know there's no point in thinking about what THEY think is the right thing to do, at any point, b /c they will be told by marketing when it is time to do something. In other words, even if the devs weren't busy, they wouldn't be bugging marketing/social media b/c marketing/social media does not care what the developers think.

I'm guessing that 2K don't wanna fuel the hype-train, because they do not fully believe in Civ6 (maybe after 2 or 3 Expansions, maybe?)

Would be the first Civ to get 3 expansion then... (not that I would mind; the potential of Civ 6 is huge)

The vast majority will be disappointed. That's how the cycle goes, and the circle of life continues.

If the 2K QA doesn't update today, it could be a patch day for PC only. Yesterday the 2K QA build updated in the morning instead of the afternoon, which was unusual, but not this morning. In addition, the game packages and SDK all updated yesterday.

The only thing missing from the puzzle is achievements.

If the 2K QA build doesn't update by 5pm Eastern, I might get excited.

How does this last update on linuxinternalqa change your view?

It doesn't much. However, snooping around in the Deluxe Edition package; I noticed that DLC03 depot hasn't been added to it yet. That would be something to keep an eye on if we see a sudden flurry of activity.

Eagle Pursuit, why would a patch require achievements? This would only be the case if DLC were coming, right? Maybe they release a patch shortly, but new DLC later.

That's possible, but judging from past events, they prefer to pair them. They might also be tricky and hold back on the achievements until the last minute.

There is 20 minutes left in the work day on the East Coast. If we don't see a 2K QA build update before then, we could be looking at a patch for PC tonight. Or everything tomorrow.

Thanks for staying on top of this, for reading the tea leaves, and for feeding us information-starved fans (who never stop complaining, including myself lol)

Well, 2Kqa_b updated in the nick of time and ruined our hope of a Valentines Day patch.

Or maybe... they are reading this and playing with us. *tinfoil hat*

I think about that possibility all the time, lol.

Wasnt it similar with the December patch? Something happened to make us think it wouldnt be today? ^^"

The only thing I can think of was that it came in the evening (East Coast). A lot of people gave up on it when it didn't come by the afternoon. However, alert individuals remembered that the November patch also came in the evening.

Yeah, they are always at night time for me, so I can only angrily glare at the patch notes, annoyed about not being able to start playing right there. <.<

I have to fight this bizarre impulse to rapidly click the like button on this post. As if each click were a vote. A vote that would make the post a reality. So irrational...

I knew it! Not enough people voted and we lost the patch! Awful job civfanatics forum. Terrible. Remember to like early and often next time.

Fixing that sentry bug is #1 with me.
I would also like to see the routine of placing your spy in a home city changed. I find every few turns I get asked what to do it and I have to reset.
I find it irritating. If the AI must constantly ask at least give me a 'no change' button.

Yep, an autorenew checkbox on Spy and trade routes please.

Plus fix the 'just built' function on cities
