10/10 nice OP picture.

So when are they releasing Civ VI? I quit my job to have nothing to distract me from Civ VI the rest of the year and to get some time to play Stellaris.

>>149677154
Hardly. One anon1 fucked up his game and anon2 got butthurt because anon1 didn't take his advice and began spamming the thread. It's cringy.

>>149677416
October I think. But I'll assume it won't be playable at the release desu, XCOM 2 is also made by Firaxis, right? I haven't played it yet but I didn't hear good things about its performances and bugs

>>149677532
>he knows what he's doing
I saved this one because someone requested it as OP image and the anon1 in question was being an idiot, he literally went and said >my placement is perfect.

>>149677532
So you're saying he didn't know what he was doing?

>>149677737
>anon1 places a city and posts screenshot
>anon2 says anon1 should have placed the city somewhere else
>anon1 says the placement is fine given the circumstances
>anon1 says he lost
>anon2 spams the thread for the next hour making image after image mocking anon1 just because anon1 didn't take anon2's advice, as if that city placement lost him the game
Cringy, as, fuck, senpai. Even for /4xg/.

>>149678129
No, we told him why he was wrong and he literally refused to listen and kept telling us his placement was flawless.

>The CIV VI civs "unintentional" leak was real

>>149678576
What you don't get is that doesn't even matter. It was one city and even if it was placed incorrectly it didn't necessarily lose the anon the game. I don't play CBP so for all I know anon1 was right. Maye cities on the coast are more vulnerable early on in CBP than vanilla. Fact is, anon2 got offended and then spent an hour of his life doing nothing but spamming /4xg/ and creating images because some random ass anon didn't place his city where he told him to place it.

Fuck, anon1 sounded downright polite towards the end. Even offered anon2 an apology. Anon2 stopped spamming at that point but I'll be damned if we celebrate him as he spans the next thread with his autism.

>>149679237
It's literally not just one anon though. Quite a few people found anon1's berserk defense of his own city placement amusing.
Are you him? It was like three images, get over it.
No I am not him, I was asleep when it happened.

>>149678129
Anon1, please.
We get it, you're butthurt.

Video reveals that China's unique agenda is the "Wall of 10,000 Lis"

I guess China just wants to build a big wall to keep everyone out, and otherwise stay mildly isolationist. Or this could just be their "I want to have all the wonders" agenda that was advertised, plus a few extra things

>>149679114
These models make me want to kill myself. Can't watch the video right now, what are the uniques?

>>149679998
WE WILL BUILD A WALL
AND WE WILL HAVE THE XIONGNU PAY FOR IT

>>149680472

>Leader: Catherine de Medici

>National Ability: Grand Tour - Gain a bonus when constructing midgame wonders. Gain extra tourism for every wonder. (Two examples of the midgame wonders shown at 0:22 are the Venetian Arsenal and Mont Saint-Michel)

>Leader Ability: Ladies-in-waiting - Gain additional diplomatic information for every foreign civilization met. Researching Castles yields an additional spy.

>Unique Unit: Garde Impériale - Gain a bonus when fighting on the home continent of France, and garner Great General points from kills.

>Unique Infrastructure: Château - Must be built near a river. Provides culture, and special bonuses for being in the vicinity of wonders.

>>149680881
Looks like Garde Imperiale is a natural counter to America.

>>149681223
Isn't it England? IIRC, England gains bonuses on combat on other continents whereas America gains bonus on combat on their own continent

>>149681361
>>149681223
It will depend on where you and them spawn anyway

>>149681423
It makes a huge difference in TSL games desu

>>149681361
I mean if both are on the same continent ofc
England is best for attacking the Americans and French while the Americans and French are best for defending against the English if they're on different continents.

>>149680881
>Intelligence
Probably going to depend on how important intel actually is

>>149679353
I don't play CBP so assuming anon2 did play CBP a lot and knew what he was talking about, anon1 said he didn't even have problems with the city in question so it's a nonissue. Furthermore, anon1 was downright polite towards the end and anon2 kept on spamming. And yes, it was spam of the highest order. 3 images and like a dozen text posts that weren't discussion in the slightest.

So let's assume anon1 is a newb and was wrong. The worst he is guilty of is being cocky. Assuming anon1 wasn't lying and didn't lose the city in question due to sucky placement, anon2 is was flat out wrong to claim his advice would have saved him the game. And regardless, he had no right to get so offended that he should flood the general with a dozen posts.

I'd rather have polite newbs who discuss what they did on this board rather than cringe autists who stop listening and spam insults and then drag their autism to the next thread as if it's some ebin new maymay.

>>149680472
I like it. It's a well done caricature. If you know the person it is based off of even in passing you can tell who it is by the exaggerated features. It's like C:IV but without the swollen heads.

>>149681663
>a dozen posts
I guarantee you that there was more than one or even two people involved in posting He Knows What He Is Doing.

As OP I wasn't even around for it and used it because someone asked for it, and from what I can tell it wasn't 'cringe worthy', just dragged on a bit. Anon 1 was being an imbecile pure and simple, Anon 2 looked like he doing bantz.

>>149681561

Apparently, intelligence allows you to catch sensitive information like civilizations preparing for war, starting to build/currently building wonders, preparing to settle/just settled

Also the free Spy at Castle technology sounds like Vox Populi's English UA which gets a Spy LONG before other civs get to unlock it (Renaissance). If it's still before other civs, it could be powerful. If it's also Civ:BE style espionage, you could rape civs in the style of the ARC

>>149677730
XCOM 2 had fuckawful performance on launch and a few minor bugs, but they sorted that shit out in a few weeks.

The game itself was quite functional and complete, though.

>>149677730
>>149682213
Yup, XCOM 2 was buggy at launch, but they've since fixed that, and the game itself is complete; some of the interface stuff is annoying, like how grenades tend to snap to tiles, but that stuff is easily fixed with just a few mods. Moreover, the game is fun from the start and stays fun (aside from the frustration of losing soldiers because you screwed up, but that's XCOM, baby.)
It's certainly a far sight better than what's been done with games like Stellaris; XCOM 2 had all it's parts, there were just some bugs where a few of those pieces fit together. Stellaris just had the puzzle's boundaries; most of the center pieces were missing or "not included yet."

>>149682213
Nigga please. Firaxis know what they're doing.

There was certainly at least a third anon involved in the situation, as anon1 was actually defending his actions with someone as anon2 spammed the board. The fact remains though that anon1 and anon3 were relatively polite while anon2 just spammed and created those images. Anon2 said anon1 was being rude and anon1 offered a fucking apology, which you don't see very often on 4chan. I assume the offer of an apology motivated anon2 to stop spamming.

I'm not going to fucking herald some anon who gets offended at the drop of a hat and then spams /4xg/ for an hour and when offered an olive branch fucking leaves, and neither should you. I'm flabbergasted you would think otherwise.

I take it you were there. Do you play CBP? From what I can tell, city placement wasn't even an issue. Anon1 claimed he didn't even lose the city. Now either anon1 is a liar and he lost the city due to placement, he didn't lose the city but still made the bad choice of not putting it on the water because CBP doesn't make cities more vulnerable early game, or anon1 wasn't lying and cities are vulnerable and anon2 was completely wrong in claiming that he lost the game because of the city placement. Anon1 claimed he got attacked from the other side of the map or some shit.

I don't know why I'm even discussing this. I wouldn't give a flying fuck if it all stayed in the last thread. I just hate it when assholes are celebrated. It's shit like that that ruins communities. Also this adderall I took probably has something to do with me being willing to put a few hundred words into this topic.

Glad /4xg/ is bumping though.

>>149683503
Holy shit wall of text
>I take it you were there
No, I'm OP and didn't come onto the thread until after the entire discussion.
Wait until the adderall wears off, you're getting way too assblasted over this, he wasn't even being a dick by /4xg/ standards let alone 4chan ones.

>>149683503
Please, anon1. Stop embarrassing yourself.
We all know you know what you were doing. Getting angry over this isn't going to help.

>>149677256
From what I've seen half of the stuff CBP says don't work lad

>>149683652
I'll keep it short then. He argument for why anon1 lost was flawed, he got assblasted himself because anon1 didn't take his advice, and then he dedicated an hour of his life spamming /4xg/ and creating those images.

You are right, that's level of cringe isn't unheard of. But I wouldn't be typing this if that was the only problem. The problem is that anons in this thread are celebrating the cunt. Leave it in the last thread. In a few hours he will be back and see your noble defense of him and go right back to being a cunt, expecting us all to listen to him, and to suffer his autism when we don't and pat him on the back when it's all said in done.

>>149683503
Ok anon.. I dunno 4? I understand your anger and its ok to type it out but I think you need to calm down now.

>>149684923
Again you seem incredibly fucking angry for no reason. The second anon didn't seem to be assblasted, just amused.

>>149683652
See >>149684775, and >>149679812
See what I'm talking about?

>Someone isn't patting me on the back for being a cunt who spams the board when someone doesn't take my advice?! Must be a samefag!
That's not the kind of posters we want.

>>149684989
But Onee-chan, if a random person over the Internet who is obviously unbiased tells you that an Anon who made a minor meme out of someone else's fucks-up after being arrogant tells you that this Anon was assblasted, he's obviously right.

Why else would you laugh at someone's arrogant phrase right before he fucked up?

I am the one who made all these pictures last thread, and I don't know what exactly you did. All I know is that you acted all haughty and pretentious, got your shit pushed in, and it was fucking hilarious.
The fact that you keep whining while pretending to be someone else only makes you even more pathetic when you were when you keep yapping that your city placement was "perfect" and that you knew what you were doing, even when it was painfully obvious that it wasn't the case.

>>149685768
Anon 2 was being 'rude', not 'assblasted'. There is a huge difference. Anon 1, polite or not, attacked the people who tried to give the advice HE asked for.

>>149685768
Yeah I'm getitng assblasted. Anybody would be getitng assblasted.

>>149684923
>He argument for why anon1 lost was flawed
How though? City placement is a huge thing, you can actually lose games for it especially that early.

bravo

reposting here because other Anon kindly told me there was a new thread:

How come Civ V seems to be the universally preferred game here in /4xg/? It's unplayably annoying to me, coming as a newbie Civ IV (80-ish hours) player

The graphics, interface etc. all reek of overdesigned and completely nonfunctional garbage that only morons could have designed and greenlit in Civ V. It tries to look good but it just looks like shit. It's like the designers have never heard of good UI design principles. Everything is done for you, so you have to go look up a fucking guide on what hidden "streamlining" is done for the sake of cattle so you can disable it.

Especially being unable to manually change keybindings. That pisses me off greatly. Having to use AHK to get wasd to be panning buttons is unacceptable.
I already use vim, I refuse to fucking learn another key layout system for a fucking TURN-BASED game, and using the mouse for everything is ridiculously unergonomic when I have an entire other hand ready to rock but only useful for jerking off without customized keybinds

Civ V's GUI is an affront to humanity.
I don't know about its gameplay because I don't want to stick around long enough to bother.

The absence of borderless windowed, and the use of third party tools to provide said mode causing a cursor offset is just...
that shit's Jap-tier coding

>>149686161
>Nigga please.
>put the starting city in the wrong spot
>not fucking terrible
It wasn't his first but misplacing early cities is huge.

>implying you need to be OP
I meant because I claimed to have only saved the pictures.

>>149686162
Nice pasta. Where did you stole it?

>>149685830
I just checked. Anon1 didn't ask for advice. >>149518941

Why are you such a cunt? Just because he didn't take your advice after the fact?

>le samefag
Fuck off. I'm not defending some anon. Anon1 was probably totally wrong. I'm calling you out for being a cunt who hijacked the thread because you got offended for no reason and then expect everyone to suck your cock for it.

>>149686162
>someone made a new thread when old one wasn't dead yet
>bravo
Yeah I did you massive fuckwit because I wanted to be able to go to sleep soon as it is now 02:00 (obviously I didn't, been reading manga like an idiot), and literally every time I neglected making a new thread for 4xg you idiots went and died instead of making a new one.

>>149686312
Civ V objectively has garbage graphic design and user interface design. That's not exactly a death knell itself; Civ IV isn't nearly as pretty, but at least it's intuitive. It's still not gonna make me jizz with excitement, but it doesn't give me a hernia at least

>>149686397
Wow, you really are a retard. Get some reading comprehension, re-read my post, then MAYBE I'll bother answering you, Mister "I'm Totally Not That Guy But I Like The Taste Of His Semen".

>>149686397
I'm not involved in this shit right now but here:
You are literally the only one butthurt over this and YOU are now the anon spamming the thread.
Just let go, memes like this are usually short lived and if they're long-lived then well who cares it's a fucking meme

>>149686461
Someone sounds like they're overly defensive and a bit of a wuss, especially considering the other thread was up long enough for people to post in it without dying
You making a new thread isn't important, much like you yourself aren't very important

smileywithtthecaratnose.txt

It's unfair to compare Civ IV and Civ V because Civ IV is clearly one of (if not) the best 4x game ever created and everybody involved with either game knew that.

>someone made 4 pictures last thread to mock a retard
>retard has been spamming the thread even since
Gee, I wonder who's the shitposter.

>>149685983
Anon1 claimed that he didn't even lose the city in question. Apparently he just idiotically forgot Shaka couldn't expand so much that he can bypass his haughty choke point. That one city placement is therefore moot.

Unless CBP does something radical to the a city, placement on the coast doesn't mean much other than making bank on sea trade routes and the extra food from sea tiles.

>>149686487
>>149686162
I will however look into the Enhanced UI mod. I checked the Workshop but didn't find something like that in the top rated, and since I don't follow Civ too closely I took "Civ VI mods" at face value, forgetting Civ VI isn't out yet, so I didn't check the pastebin before

>>149686624
I asked if I should make a new thread though and received affirmatives you imbecile posting pasta.
>I'm not important
Yeah I'm not, but neither are you, and my experiences shows that the thread dies if I don't make one.

Good job on listening to what other people tell you without thinking for yourself. Maybe take this to heart as well: your a fagpot

Making a new thread when the old one reaches bump limit isn't exactly rocket science

>>149686945
Nigga please. We know what we're doing.

>>149686875
Civ V is not a bad game by any means, it is a great game, I love it, but Civ IV is a superior and more dynamic 4x experience whereas Civ 5 seems a little too stuck with certain play styles and whatnot.

>>149686602
You're right. But it astounds me why anons are supporting that cunt. You can tell when he showed up. He just started spamming nonarguments about me being assblasted. It was the same quality of posts last night that I caught the tail end of.

So long as he doesn't continue to shit up the board demanding that everyone listen to him I don't have a problem dropping it. I wanted a nice peaceful day playing CiV and posting on /4xg/ and got a little miffed when anons tried transplanting a flamewar from the last thread. That's like rule 1 of generals.

>>149686945
>Good job on listening to what other people tell you without thinking for yourself.
I personally felt like making a new thread and simply asked if it would be acceptable to make one before bump limit, which is contrary to convention. If it were over the bump limit, I'd have posted it right away.
Calm your ass and go play C2C or something, it's a good mod. Take EUI or just the CBP and go for it, it does help quite a bit (although some problems remain including the general style).
What the fuck is with all the baiters today anyway, was my OP that disagreeable? Should I just stick to anime pictures?

>>149687201
Anon you're awfully grumpy for an offhanded comment consisting in its entirety of "bravo", you're the one that started flinging shit when someone innocuously commented on the disregard of board convention based entirely on a bunch of other chucklefucks also disregarding board convention

Yes. But dont worry too much about it.

No other anon complained about the thread being early and Im pretty sure the majority is secretly thankful to our Oneechan for doing the tedious work of making new threads and having to deal with people disagreeing with OP pictures.

>>149681895
I believe Ed Beech said he wanted to make espionage more 'exciting' (his exact wording was that spies would get to do James Bond-esque missions), referencing BE's espionage system as an example.

I'm surprised they gave France the spy bonuses instead of Russia though.

>>149687443
He thinks I'm an ass for starting a new thread early. Maybe I am, seeing as I'm still awake and it caused a shitstorm to erupt.

>>149687392
Use >>149686161 as the next OP, please. It's worth it just to trigger the SJW refugee.

Some Anon is whining that the new thread was made early because he had to copypaste his shitty comment about how his tastes are better.

>>149687389
>you don't make the rules
Yeah, hence why meta discussion is necessary to maintain the health of a community. A good general follows informal rules that aren't strictly part of 4chan's ruleobook.

>>149687563
I'll consider it if no other fresh memes or suitable images show up but I don't like to repeat OP images, it feels forced imo.

>>149687531

Reread my posts. I called a total of one person a cunt. I can see why you would think I was calling the whole thread cunts though if you were pretending to be multiple people.

So for the record, the only person I called a cunt was the anon who was spamming last thread AND creating those images and then proceeding to shit up this thread. Everyone else is cool in my book.

>>149687963
I asked why Civ V was seemingly the preferred and then semi-shitposted because I find that inflammatory remarks tend to bring out more responses and of greater "passion" for lack of better words.

I genuinely don't understand the appeal of Civ V but that's honestly just because I don't have a good grasp of the major differences. The obvious ones that I do see, natural wonders, one unit per tile, "modern" layout all seem like pointless gimmicks or actively detrimental, so I was hoping for someone to angrily call me fucking nigger cattle and point out the pros and cons of each.
Just asking for the pros and cons of each would get me accused of wanting to be spoonfed (which is entirely true)

the new thread thing was honestly just a tangential aside, I had no idea that THAT was gonna draw out the heated flame

>>149690401

10/10 would become vassal.

Speaking of vassals, do you lose the game when you become someone else's vassal?

>>149690617
I like Civ5 for a simple reason: there's a shitload of mods.

>>149690517
Dang. I liked how the ratio of energy/science for international and production/food for domestic trade routes shifted depending on what the city's yields were. It added an interesting facet to trade routes and actually made sense.

>>149690617
I was just angry lad

>>149690604

>>149690714
Nah you don't lose. It just limits what you can do. You can't colonize for example.

I tested it some time ago for a moment and it's pretty boring to be a vassal.

>>149690883
>it's pretty boring to be a vassal
I don't want to sound like an ass, but it's always the case. Even CKII, being a vassal greatly limits you.
Still extremely proud of that time when I become a king's vassal on my own before he asked me and he made me marshall. That was neat. Nice AI.

>>149690617
>I don't want to rely on non-dicks for information by asking to be "spoonfed" so I'll just act like a dick myself in order to bait people into enlightening me
That's a shitty way of looking at the world.

>>149691120
I'd like it to have some extra mechanics when you're a vassal so you can dabble with some other things instead of the regular stuff when you're independent. Like, being able to influence politics within the empire you're "part" of would be nice.

>>149691162
You really think stating a preference for one game over another makes me a dick? Or is it insulting the nameless, faceless devs' method of operating?

Well I'm of the opinion that is a shitty way of looking at the world. You should strive to make the general better, not enforce shitty posts with your own shitty posts.

The world only sucks because good people just assume they are the only good people and therefore don't put the effort in. Like stealing shit that someone left in public because you figure if you don't steal it then someone else will. But that's neither here nor there.

>>149693478
Why do you assume partial comments are shitty comments? That seems like a shitty way to look at debating. Have you never played the devil's advocate, or even been able to see the merit of the role?

I'm a moralfag supreme (and not strictly utilitarian either, I appreciate Kant too, even if I find deontological arguments to be too rigid with our limited capacity to comprehend the sheer scale of moral quandaries we face) but you seem like someone just completely uneducated in matters of ethics, not an actually morally upright person.

>>149696386
Oh I forgot to add that my humans also have the "rapid breeders" trait, hence the explosive population growth. The deviant trait just causes lots of other problems all over the place and because there's a fucking shit load of humans, it's starting to get noticeable.

Well, getting back to my pointless example of Trump as a CiV leader, that's what the Trump's Wall is for. It provides happiness and culture.

I think MAGA properly represents the diplomatic hit America would take if he was president for 4 years.

>>149696692
I don't think internet shills have any effect on other nations. Trump really shouldn't have any foreign relations boost.

Fuck you. BERT was fun and an improvement on the core mechanics of CiV that Firaxis thought were too deep to change with DLC.

It just lacked refinement of the tech tree and a little more gameplay elements.

>>149698618
That's what I figured. Trump is a populist rabble rouser who plays off fear of "THEM", them being basically anyone who isn't American (and some who are but are the wrong color). Those who aren't swayed by nebulous claims about "making America great again", so lot of Americans as well as the other 7 billion non-Americans of the world, aren't keen about Trump. Obama garnered a similar hoopla but the main difference is that Trump will be hated by the world as soon as he takes office and have to work his way back up whereas Obama got a fucking Nobel Peace Prize for doing literally nothing.

I want America to cooperate with other nations more, so Trump is not my top pick.

>>149699748
You bring up valid points; however, his opposition is somebody who committed a federal crime, bordering on Treason, by keeping top-secret documents on a private server with lousy security. It's one thing to elect an asshole, another thing entirely to elect a criminal who only got off because of a technicality.
That, and for however much I hate the guy, you have to admit that Trump took to politics very quickly, and has been learning how to play the crowds like a natural over the course of his campaign; I mean, the his own party hates him, and he still managed to out-politic the politicians who've been at this game for years by capitalizing on his strengths. That ability to adapt however is necessary in order to accomplish his goals is something I can see as being a good quality in a president.

But seriously, this whole election is just a shitshow in general.

That would be communism. I have to centralize my up-blowing by having the state decide who gets blown up and who doesn't, usually by deciding among several bidders for the kamikazi licenses.

It's a very competitive market, but thankfully virgins are much rarer commodities now that only /vg/ is still NEET losers, so our offers are much more comparatively valuable.

Hell, we even got the entirety of the US to blow itself up with this recent election. Business is good

>>149702054
>Bordering on treason
Hardly. Pretty sure treason has to be willful, so her using a server that isn't utterly secure isnt treason no matter how you slice it. And her deleting emails is at very worst impeding an investigation, which is serious, but far from treason. She was probably just deleting every email she used Jew in a derogatory fashion in, or anything in similar bad taste.

And I wouldn't say Trump took to politics week at all. He is playing the oldest trick in the book. Fear. Literally anyone with an ounce of charisma, and a lot of money, could do the same. What would be impressive is if he did what he did without stooping to cheap tactics, but we both saw the debates. He interrupts others while talking and is generally rude as hell. He is the exact opposite of diplomatic.

I half agree with the Democrats rather undemocratically not giving Bernie a chance. A more moderate candidate will be more likely to defeat Trump. In so doing they really sullied Hillary's ticket, which she does perfectly well all by herself.

Trump might be a moron who's going to ruin the US but I'm not American so I don't mind that too much, and at least he's not a part of the cancerous inbred status quo of bipartisan oligarchy, just regular old-fashioned corporatism.

>>149704190
First-past-the-poll and bipartisan voting systems means that voting on anyone who doesn't win is essentially pointless, unlike actual democracies where 20% of the voting pop voting for say, libertarians (if they're edgy 20-something self-proclaimed intellectuals) would actually reflect in 20% of the parliament being libertarian

in the US, if 51% of an area votes republican, 100% of the pop of that area is assumed to be republican

It's a problem of name recognition. You remember the name of the guy who's commercial was on every other commercial break, while you're probably not going to remember the guy you kinda-sorta heard about a blog or something who was running, apparently?
It's sad, but the majority of people are more likely to vote for somebody simply because they recognize the name.

That, and the main highlights of the presidential campaigns tend to be the party rallies where each party brings out their candidates and basically shills them to the public. Most people who care are going to be watching those to see who's running. Guess how hard it's going to be for somebody who isn't part of the party to get a spot in those rallies.

>>149706287
not really. sega are dlc whores (total war) but they're good at managing, outside of sonic. sonic is their own failure. but they're pretty good outside of that, and listen to player feedback. for instance, with total warhammer, they had some shitty day 1 preorder dlc, but changed it to 'within the first week, you get it for free' which is great because it meant that you could easily wait for reviews. they also brought in modding tools (that are still being expanded on) because of all the player outrage.

however, they are putting in loads of dlc in total warhammer already, like previous total war games, and I can expect that they'll do the same with dawn of war 3, as well as whatever else they publish.

>>149719558
Sometimes I have the impression 99% of devs' revenue are DLCs.

>>149719904
They are. Like seriously I buy completely new PC games now for the same price I bought them for nearly 20 years ago. Inflation being a thing they've gotta make money somewhere.

>>149719904
a lot probably is, depending on the game. I mean, the dlc for total warhammer right now comes up to be half the cost of the full game. and its only been out for two months. then you have games like payday 2 that are totally reliant on dlc. (42 packs totaling at 148$)

Yeah people do vote based on name recognition. It's a pretty serious cognitive flaw of human beings. We tend to prefer what we are more familiar with. On top of that most Americans are too ignorant or apathetic to do the research necessary to even understand our electoral system and the possible spread of candidates let alone realize and try to compensate for the cognitive biases that are being taken advantage of by political campaigns.

They weren't looking for evidence of anything. Having the server in and of itself was the crime. Not the content.

Think of it this way. The police get a warrant to search your property to search for your friend who is a felon. When they enter they find you feverishly shredding tax documents. That is suspicious, but has nothing to do with the warrant.

The deleted emails probably just had her insulting people or calling people Jews or something.

>>149723280
Storing Top Secret government documents on private property- even if it's digital property- is not only illegal, it can potentially get you tried for Treason by putting state secrets at risk.
Never mind the fact that copying Top Secret documents, period, is also highly illegal. They're state secrets that are being kept secret for a reason; copying them and storing them on private property sounds like something a spy would do- or someone looking to sell those secrets at a later date. At the very least, she committed Dereliction of Duty by putting the nation's secrets at risk like that, secrets she was trusted with when she was appointed to her position. Were she not the democratic canidate, she probably would have lost her job at the very least; instead, it's getting swept under the rug so that they have somebody who might have a shot at beating Trump.

I didn't make more screenshots at the time, but Korea got the last laugh by retaking Seoul three times with that fleet. By the time it was secured it was a 1 pop city with zero buildings and four wonders.

The point is, the leader of a country in a Civ game should be iconic. Napoleon is Corsican, but he's iconic. Cleo is Macedonian, but she's iconic.
Be honest, how many people outside of /4xg/ or /gsg/ would even know who Catherine DiMedici was?

>>149753875
They were going for personality this time though
Hojo is a literal fucking nobody, he's famous for being around when the Mongols got blown into the water.

>>149753921
>They were going for personality this time though
This is a fucking retarded excuse, and both developers and Civ VI defenders use this everytime someone criticizes their choices for leaders. Are you telling me Catherine is the leader with the strongest personality in the entire French history?

>>149753921
Yeah that's another terrible choice. Also, are you trying to say Catherine Medici has more personality than Napoleon would? It was an affirmative action hire and it's obviously so. Not to mention, Napoleon has been in Civ forever like Gandhi.

>>149753746
>and gigantic cities with nobody willing to sell me luxuries

>>149753812
It's a necessary evil when using mods. Sometimes stuff just doesn't work for no determinable reason.

>>149753995
Why do you care so much? I'm just glad we are getting new leaders instead of the same ones that we get every game.

>>149753995
>>149754036
they're not just looking for personality. they're looking for unique personalities. and they're also looking to make civs unique from eachother.

sure, they could probably do something unique with napoleon, and they probably will if multiple leaders come out. but catherine is unique in that no one really liked her. so she had her spies keep track of everyone. she got up to the top through backstabbing and generally being a cunt. and thats probably how her civ is going to be. instead of just generic warmonger #23 like napoleon was in civ 5.

>>149753995
Look nigga I'm just telling your their given excuse, not whether or not I agree with it. I would've preferred Louis XIV, Louis XI, or Phillipe II if Napoleon isn't in but hey.

>>149754036
My problem is why they didn't take someone like Olga, Brynhildr or Wu again if they wanted personality. It's affirmative action too but it's also legit (yeah yeah Brynhildr is legendary but who gives a shit so is Dido) in how strong their personalities were.

>>149754229
desu that's not a good argument, why are we getting a literal nobody who doesn't even have a Hojo tier personality?

>>149754297
This is a good argument though, she's insanely spy-focused.

Why they haven't said any fucking thing about this yet? I have to know if will we have multiple leaders and will they be DLC or in the main game.

I also have to know about modding possibilities, I heard XCOM 2 was really moddable(still haven't played it), I wish Civ VI is the same way

Also what mods should we make if the game is moddable?

>>149754378
>ask a question
>that's not a good argument

>>149754475

>>149754573
>I thought you were asking a rhetorical question and saying "it's new and varied so it's good!"
I'm saying that's my opinion. I'm also asking why you feel so strongly about personality not being a decent criteria for one of the Civ games.

>>149754647
I'm not the person saying that. I'm saying that Catherine does even have a standout personality in the history of France. Hell Eleanor of Aquitaine had a strong personality too and was strong independent womyn to boot.
Duchy of Aquitaine civilization when

>>149754475
it will probably be dlc and they'll announce it when the dlc comes out. they'll probably keep a lid on it until then if only to keep people in suspense, since its doubtful that it would be in the main game.
they also said that modding will be a lot easier because its a new homebrew engine, and also that there will be modding for multiplayer. so probably the sky will be the limit. I can hope that you'll be able to do huge-scale full overhauls like you could in civ 4.

>>149754708
Cardinal Richelieu would have fulfilled the same spymonger role and been much more recognizable as a historical figure and as a personality. This was done because they wanted to have half women half men for the leaders.
So, who is the progressive science based African leader going to be? Or will they just give us Shaka again to be the big bull of the AIs? Him and Genghis were my favorite warmongering ccivs so i'd miss them if they weren't around.

>>149754906
The Zulu should be dropped for the Berbers and / or the Mali desu

>>149754906
A guy from Kongo is in IIRC
Also Genghis was a free DLC in Civ V, and in that "leak", there was only one slot for both Ottomans, Persia and Mongolia
I wouldn't have high hopes for Genghis, but you can be sure that he'll be modded in the game as soon as it comes out

>>149754906
Cardinal Richelieu wasn't the leader though, he didn't even hold a leader-like title like Empress Theodora. It'd be like putting Belisariius on for Byzantium because he was influential and important.

They have to put one African civ desu, at least I'm happy they didn't go full SJW and made half of them Africans

Also one of the important thing about civs are TSL maps, I guess that's the reason Brazil is in, otherwise South America would be empty, whereas there's no chance of Europe or Asia having empty land.

I think that 18 leader limit is simply stupid desu, I'd also like Ottomans, Persia and Mongolia all in, but you have to make sacrifices I guess. Though I can't justify Poland

Also I think this is the final pic of leaked leaders

>>149755385
Poland makes sense though, it was a superpower in Europe at its height.

>>149755385
Who the fuck is the one between Germany and Greece? I can't even think of an important civilization in that place.

>>149755514
I'd argue that Persia/Ottomans were more important civilizations than Poland, but if the game is moddable we can easily have both so there's no point in arguing, really

Like how many mod leaderscreens in Civ 5 were fully animated? 3?

>>149761536
And those 3 used already existing animations of leaders and were still buggy
But that's because 5 is really hard as fuck to mod, not only in leader screens but in pretty much everything. IIRC, that was the reason popular total conversion mods in Civ IV didn't translate to Civ V, they simply couldn't.

Civ V isn't made to be modded, but I guess Civ VI will be. If you want to take a look at a game made with mods in mind and made by Firaxis, I guess you can check out XCOM 2
