Just heard about this, why aren't we talking about it?
Is /v/ not ready to have its balls blown off?
Art looks like shit
>>338212350
Civ V was shit, what makes you think 6 won't be shit
>>338212350
civ 5 took expansions to be good
after the trainwreck/rip off that was beyond earth, i can't understand why anyone is excited for this game
>>338213582
>civ 5 took expansions to be good
IV's base game was nothing special either.
>after the trainwreck/rip off that was beyond earth
Which was made by a different team than the guys making this
I'm interested. I'm not sure why they didn't think about all this sooner.
>>338213714
Pretty sure it's a different team than Civ v's making this one too
>>338212350
Of course I'm excited but you have to realize all we've seen are a few screenshots and not much else.
We've already had threads about this. General consensus was:
>art style is cartoony as fuck
>still wont be playable without expansion packs
>more WE WUZ civs to please dindus
>main theme is not Baba Yetu, so its shit
>>338212350
Cuz
>>338212350
What I've played is bretty gud
>>338215774
I fucking hate meme yetu
Most overrated song of all time
We reached a consensus:
>graphics =/= gameplay
>artstyle =/= content
>never trust gandhi
>ready for iOS and Android (lel)
>>338212350
We have been talking about it. Pay attention.
>>338212350
>the american leader is harriet tubman
you can't make this shit up
Will air units set to intercept actually fucking be visible? Will thet set a limit to how many air units you can have in one city? Maybe tie it to buildings/airports
Also improving the ai turn speed and how good they are at war and positioning units.
>>338218239
kek
>>338215461
This. The artstyle and some promises are the only things we can discuss now, and that's not much fuel for a real discussion.
>>338212350
>why aren't we talking about it?
You weren't here all of last week.
>>338215218
The developers of Gods & Kings and Brave New World are making Civ VI. They also say they are trying to keep as much of Civ V in the base release of VI as they can. Though they also said some stuff like Diplomacy is going to have a 'major revamp' and of course, cities are now dynamic. They also are taking away global happiness and each city has its own happiness.
>>338218239
But you just did make that up
>>338212350
Oh, we talked a lot about it alright.
/v/ talked about it endlessly. And in true /v/ fashion, it was mostly just bitching about the art style. Totally overlooking the interviews where the developers had legitimate gameplay reasons for changing the style.
I also don't mind the art style. But I've been playing games since the NES days so I'm used to 'cartoony graphics'.
>>338220450
>developers had legitimate gameplay reasons for changing the style
i didnt see those, what were they?
>>338212350
>civ 5 was total shit
>shills think people want to hear about civ 6 which will also be utter shit
Fucks sake just get out
>>338220450
>Totally overlooking the interviews where the developers had legitimate gameplay reasons for changing the style.
I'm interested, but I'm not that interested. It's May and the game's slated for October, I'm not that hyped. What did they say?
>>338220450
>>338220564
>LE GRAPHICS DISCUSSION
You are both shills talking about graphics to generate false controversy over a non-issue so you can get people to ignore the fact that civ 5 was shit and this will also be shit.

It's fucking everywhere

Touche. And no, I'm not going to add the tilde just to spare some greentext response.

Pretty much everything in Greek or Roman culture is an overdone reference. Blame Britain, Germany and France.

Anons dumped the text from a few articles in most threads, from memory, the stuff that stuck out to me the most was
>Generic units will have civ specific models
>Moddability will be better then 5's
>cities can expand past 1 tile, buildings and wonders actually occupy hexs, there's a new mechanic called districts that plays into this
>AI/diplomacy is being focused on since it was shit in 5 vanilla
>Time of day visual system
>Fog of war will be based on old exploration era maps instead of clouds, same with the UI instead of classical-esque stuff
>A lot of the niche units from 5 will be part of a new class of units that "combine" with base units sort like civ rev's army system to alleviate 1upt, so catapults or anti tank stuff will be that instead of their own seperate unit
>religion, tourism, etc will be in the base game
>>338222163
wow that's okay. but it still looks like shit.
>>338222265
Then go back and playing your super grim dark and serious looking Civ IV. Oh wait...
>>338222391
Civ IV looks even worse lmao
>>338212350
I just hope the ocean unit AI isn't garbage like in V
>>338212350
Oh I can't wait OP! I need a new F2P adventure for my iPhone :^)
>>338220450
>And in true /v/ fashion, it was mostly just bitching about the art style
Because there was little else to talk about they said fucking nothing about the specifics of the mechanics or gameplay.
After Civ 4, 5 and BE all sucked at launch people are perfectly justified in being skeptical about this.
It's shit.
>>338221719
During the late middle ages/rennaisance/victorian era people were finding classical (greek/roman) art, books, etc, and the people of those ages were absolutely obsessed with them and it was a big thing among the upper crust of society.
>>338222859
>Because there was little else to talk about they said fucking nothing about the specifics of the mechanics or gameplay.
Well first of all, /v/ could stop trying to be /v/ for once and wait for more info before going to red alert levels of trolling. Especially since it only took 24 fucking hours before they released a bunch of interviews with tons of info.
But did /v/ start talking about those interviews? Nope.
>>338221752
>tilde
anon stop
>>338221719
>What is with this obsession with Atlas?
*Atlas Shrugged*
>>338212350
Because Endless Legend exists
>>338221752
You're tildeing up the wrong tree with that one.
>>338223541
>>338223580
Endless Legend sucks dick, though. It's really unengaging compared to BNW.
>>338223580
Civ V is better than Endless Legend. In UI, build order, music, pasive play and etc. About the only thing Endless Legend does better is the addition of a quest system and combat. Which even then, both of those have major flaws that Endless Legend 2 needs to fix.
>>338223450
Sorry anon but >>338222859 is right, BE alone justified massive skepticism no matter what the fuck they try to tell us or show us, even if some of the core stylistic bits that we can actually judge weren't showing a developer mindset that raises concerns. They talked a big fucking game for BE too, people sought additional info and got it, and while a lot of us took a look, determined it wasn't SMAC 2, and then dismissed it as trash out of hand, tons of civ folks got legitimately hyped once again. Even I felt pretty bad for them after such a fucking turd.
So yeah, good will is officially fucking burned to the ground. This isn't /v/ being EBIN TROOLS NEXT TORTANTIC XD at random in a general way, this is entirely justifiable suspicion and lingering hate over a history of abuse.
>>338224398
So basically, you're argument is its better to troll and get angry just to be safe than read interviews and wait for more info. Great logic.
Especially since as it has already been said in this thread, the developers of Brave New World are doing Civ VI. But don't let that stop you from blindly declaring its shit.
>mobile stuff rumored to be involved with it
It's automatically garbage.
