I do agree that the fog of war and unexplored need to be different colors than one just being a lighter shade of brown than the other. Makes it hard to figure out with just a glance.

AI seems somewhat better but I had Cleo declare war on me a turn after we met for some reason. Considering I have been playing with Pericles, I haven't actually fought Frederick yet even though I am been on the same continent.

I agree about the map colors. AI seems buggy. Had two leaders declare war on me on like turn 15. and 1 turn later they both offered me peace and gave me a bunch of gold too. Worked in my favor but that ain't right

been watching some streams of this. looks like more of the same, in a good way. However, not gonna pay full price.

Just bought it tonight, played for about an hour. Its good, i like it. However, there is a lot that needs to be fixed. It feels super slow, the AI needs reworked, you can't use a battering ram against cities unless they have a wall built. thats just my first thoughts from minimal play.

A game on "quick" has taken me 6 hours and I'm not even to the Renaissance yet.

My first completed game was around 8 hours on quick

Research rates compared to building times needs addressed.

My first marathon game on King has me in the Renaissance age around 200 b.c., but building anything takes forever. 60 turns for harbor district but 20 turns a tech.... seems off. And I'm not even focusing on science... or at least not intentionally.

You're playing on king so I assume you know what your doing but it seems like your cities lack production.

i don't know.. didn't have that issue myself. I had a shit ton of science so most techs took like 4-8 turns and most buildings took 8-9 turns besides wonders of course. Even wonders were only taking 30ish turns.

Yeah, production is the new king of the resources. Probably need to nerf the science and culture gain and buff the production a bit.

So after playing about 150 hours there are a couple OP civs and one that needs major help.

Germany and Sumeria are certainly OP. Sumeria's War Carts are the best unique in the game and can roll just about anything till Pikeman come along. Germany gets a unique for the best district in the game and it gets bonus production from the 2nd best district in the game. Once the Hansa get online Germany can steamroll into any victory type.

Scythia and Rome are also pretty powerful as well.

Norway is by far the weakest civ as the berserker is costly and simply can not stand against Archers/Crossbow. The naval pillaging mechanic doesn't work as their is very little reason to settle on the coast as the game currently stands.
