Nubia livestream collateral thread

[Leathaface]

So the DLC will be released "fairly soon" according to Pete. Saaay, tomorrow at 10AM EST by chance?

Since the scenario is highly reliant on your number of cities, I have been relentlessly asking if the AI gets free settlers on higher difficulties and cannot get an answer.

I'm sure they enjoyed that

 

[Abraxis]

I do appreciate the effort the devs put into creating and fleshing out the scenarios (unique units, graphics, set pieces), but I do wish there was a way for more of this content to be carried over into the main game. Feels like kind of a waste of resources when most people will only play these scenarios a few times.

Or at all. The only scenario I've ever played was the space one from Beyond the Sword.

Did they "win" the 125 turn scenario - or just quit?

 

[Piruparka]

They quit. They didn't really play much. Loaded two or three saves and did some exploring, no real action happening

 

[The Economy]

They didn't even play, really.

They showed a game as Nubia, then they showed us the scenario as Nubia, then as Egypt and then they quit.

I think they realised that playing through the whole thing that time they previewed Australia's scenario was a bit of a drag, so they had a few different saves at interesting points of the scenario that they jumped between to give us a sort of highlight reel.

Did you see the icon for Assyria? Looks like it's already a fully fledged civilization probably coming with the expansion

I would prefer that honestly, a shorter more interesting stream rather then going through the whole scenario (which also leaves us with some elements of the scenario to explore).

Did you screenshot that? I must've missed it.

 

[Leathaface]

I heard in the stream that Nubia gets a flat 20% extra production towards districts. I thought you needed a Nubian pyramid in your city at all first to get 20% extra production towards districts.

(with 40% extra production towards districts happening when Nubian Pyramind next to your city center.)

It's just their symbol reused from Civ V, I think its just a thing to represent them in the scenario like the wooden heads for the vikings one.

It was the same for Macedon, symbol instead of Alex's head, probably for people who have one DLC but not the other

No unfortunately i wasn't at home to see the livestream so I saw it on my phone, but probably they are going to upload the livestream on YouTube so you can check it out.

That's correct. Nubia has a basic 20% bonus production towards districts, and it gets another 20% bonus production if there is a Nubian Pyramid next to the City Center, so Nubia can have 40% district production bonus.

Yeah but the other faction have something like a banner to represent them except macedon which is a civ in the game and uses its own icon and awkwardly Assyria

True, it does stand out, perhaps it is some kind of hint for the future. It's just the fact that it was identical to the Civ V symbol that makes me doubtful, everyone else seems to get a slightly different logo or colour scheme each time they appear.

That is also true, except for like England, France,Rome, Germany, Russia etcetera that have the same icon as civ 5

Assyria hype then, better get Detective @Manifold on the case, you can all add it to your bets in the 40 civ thread
