Spring 2017 Patch Live now

I had a question about the Patches/DLC in general .... certain DLC have additional natural wonders (e.g. Vikings Scenario, Australia), World Wonders (Persia/Macedon), City States (Viking Scenario) ... do they only appear if you have the DLC, or are they patched into the base game? thanks!!
 
I think only if you buy because I don't have them.
 
I just noticed Cyrus was available after finishing my China game about 10 minutes ago. I know who I'm playing next... next being right now...

So far I like the star icon saying I can harvest raw materials on the technology pop up screen. I often miss the secondary bonuses when researching technologies.

Turn times seem longer, but that may be my imagination.

My Steam Downloads page is showing it as available at 1:02 (about another 20 minutes to go).
 
I suppose that the patch came about 8 hours early to benefit Europeans, who have previously received the patches in the middle of the night.
 
I've got a great Arabia game going at about turn 160. Should I finish that game first and then download the patch, or do you think that the changes are subtle enough that I can go ahead and download it??
 
I always knew EP must be getting secret messages from the beyond. There is no way that his predictions can just be based in logic and data analysis! Now we have proof, he’s answering to people no one else can hear/read! :crazyeye:
If only I could monetize that without compromising my morals.
 
archers inside cities now consistently attack my units around the city, regardless if that's their only unit. A positive change.

It's making it difficult to take the city state of Hattusa as my game of Persia on the TSL Earth map.

Barbarians seem even more vicious than before. I have my hands full with full strength barbarian horses.

That moment when you start up your first game with the new patch, playing Alexander... And within 10 turns you find Hattusa.
 
My first game on the new patch and Ive decided to play at King. Niot even turn 100 and China has conquered two CS in double quick time. Ive also been pissing about and boxing in Spain, and the AI has used its archers pretty effectively. Positive stuff so far.
 
1st game - Turn 13 Deity - Kongo just DOW'd - Survived but its not getting any easier

So much for going naval as Vicky, Do you think a human would do what Kongo is doing?

lol, i would have restarted with tundra so close, though 3 luxuries in the capital radius would give me pause (wine might not have been visible at the start). i re-rolled 8 times the other day to get Australia out of the snow.
