Civilization 7: Professional levers the big new feature in less than 100 rounds - with unexpected consequences

With the combination of certain bonuses, the CIV 7 game logic can still be levered out.

Oh, man, what is that supposed to do, Confucius?! Now have a look at what you have done! Does that have to be? Who should eliminate the shard heap? Really, we never thought of that!

You wonder why we clean Confucius so much, the man who stands for harmony and balance like no other? Quite simply: because hebroken! We explain to you how the otherwise calm contemporary did it.

CIV-7 players createdAnti-food

Civilization 7 comes with a whole palette of sometimes more, sometimes fewer changes compared to the predecessor. One of the greater innovations is the possibility of combining different leaders, civilizations and wonder of the world together with their individual bonuses.

On the YouTube channel sponsored by Publisher 2KOne More Turnthe professional player Drongo made use of this possibility. In a new video, he demonstrates how the combination of Confucius as the leader with the people of Khmer breaks the game logic of CIV 7.

What does the professional do in detail?Due to the combination of Confucius and Khmer, Drongo enjoys massive bonuses on food and city growth. In his game, he plays in a targeted manner to further increase and optimize these bonuses:

• Confucius grants +25 percent growth rate in cities
• The unique ability of the Khmer civilization prevents urban areas from removing the natural yield of a field, which means that you can expand a city without sacrificing food for it.
• The Khmer baray improvement increases food in all river areas in a settlement.
• The Khmer Chakravarti Civic also increases the growth rate in the capital.
• Drongo has selected several leading attributes for Confucius that further increase growth and food production.
• He specializes in all of his cities in agriculture.

What exactly happens?Already in round 76, Drongos Empire produces 263.5 food per train - and the trend is rising! This means that growth suddenly ends abruptly from round 98.

The cause:The game can no longer process all the bonuses correctlyAnd suddenly -1.112 food for a new resident is due - a negative value that destroys all game progress. CIV 7 therefore invents without further adoAnti-food- Diet experts hate this trick!

Fans are not concerned, on the contrary

Now you could assume that the other CIV fans in the comment area below the video would shout from worrying that civilization 7 is full of serious bugs.

But that's not the case at all.Many users are even happy that the game offers so many optionsand any errors can be found before the release.

This is how the user writesgunnerapproximately:

In a way, I am happy when players a game before publication in this waybreak something, because that means that you played it extensively, that you noticed that something is going wrong and that you pass on your discoveries to the production team so that we will receive a cleaner game that will hopefully be corrected. Hats off!

AndXLR20icesays:

These combinations really show the strength of the separation of leaders and civilization. There are so many different ways with the leaders, peoples, governments, etc.

Since the video is a video, which is shown by the publisher, as already mentioned, the CIV developer studio Firaxis should already be aware of this bug. The chances are good that Confucius can no longer create such a chaos in the release version. We hope for the old boy, otherwise we have to talk to him a serious word!
