Patch Adds Maintenance Costs PLAIN WRONG: See For Yourself

[yalejock]

Playing on Noble as French (Louis) and the maintenance costs are way messed up. I am losing 8 gold a turn... when in fact looking at each city one by one my income should be +30... See for yourselves:

Best city: Paris (click thumbnail for bigger) + 12 turn



One of the newest ones: Avignon +/- 0 a turn (breaks even)



The only city that LOSES money: Chartres -2



Can anyone tell me what's up? Maybe I don't know how to add up maintenance costs and income... but should it not be

Income - Maintenance?

Please help because right now the game is UNPLAYABLE.

What are the costs for the civics? The "maintenance" costs on the city screens only calculates costs due to number of cities and distance from palace. Civics costs are separate, as are unit costs and inflation. Hit F2 to see where all your expenses are coming from.

^^ What he said. Civics and Units. They have a financial advisor for a reason... so you don't have to post here and look silly.

lol that made me laugh. I think the 'unplayable' condition has a lot more to do with the player in this case than the game.

(P.S. Is there any particular reason why you chose to blame this on the patch? Or was it just the vogue thing to do?)
