Well, already noted a couple of things, as have others:
1. Breaks current games, had to delete both of my games in progress.
2. 'Some' Mods are now broken, but haven't discovered which ones yet. When I tried to start a new game with my normal suite of Mods it gave me an Incompatible error message, when I disabled about 2/3 of them the remaining few worked fine. Going to have to do some experimenting.
And one unexpected 'Benefit' of the Patch:
3. On my iMac, at least, Graphics are *&^%$# up royally. All my Custom Graphics settings went back to Default, and no matter what graphic settings I try to use, the game will only open in Windowed Mod, using about 2/3 of my screen. Since I bought the large screen (27") in the first place so that I could use Full Screen for graphic-heavy games, this is a game-breaker. Nothing seems to make it go into Full Screen Mode, so until I disable auto-update and go back and reload from a previous System Save without the patch, I will not be playing Civ VI any more.
'Bye all for now, and thanx a lot Firaxis and Aspyr for the Undocumented Change.

YnAMP have been updated to fix this (if you are using it), get the latest version.

I would love to take a peek at those saves if you have either of them handy.

Wish they had changed over to listing them by civ name

I suspect this is because Firaxis sees you as playing a leader rather than a civ.

I'm a bit disappointed Firaxis didn't tweak the Diplomatic Victory in this patch (to make Diplomatic Victory Vote win more possible). Maybe next time though

The AI part said something about how the AI values Aid Emergencies, which should alter the Diplo Victory. They also made it so that at least one of the Resolutions, the AI doesn't always vote the same way.
That's why the diplo victory is so easy right now. You can accumulate so many points just by predicting which way the AI will vote, then going with them.

Nevermind, it was one of the mods. I have disabled all mods for now...

I dunno. In my recent games it has supplanted the Cultural Victory as the one I always get no matter who I'm playing or what I do
(Might have something to do with being obsessed about founding religions and building wonders, which makes it + 7 points every game from 3 wonders)
This usually occurs when you have more traders than routes, which can happen in situations like getting a free trader from a goody hut or a lighthouse or market is pillaged.
Or if you had the extra trade route form the World Congress and then lost it in the next session.
Yeah, that might actually reinforce the idea that there's a problem.I dunno. In my recent games it has supplanted the Cultural Victory as the one I always get no matter who I'm playing or what I do
Anyway, it's more of an issue with the WC in general and how political favor doesn't feel very political.

It appears that it did. They wiped the Mac and Linux builds when they updated the public build.

Hey look, they added the Lakes map after all!
It looks like we really got 7 new maps rather than 6.
Also I suddenly have a strong urge to play The Netherlands, hmm... I wonder why?
