These are all sensible suggestions but you might not be thinking big enough. Lootboxes! Imagine the sense of pride and accomplishment a player will feel when they finally pull their favourite leader.
You've got to make sure that all the most powerful leaders can only be earned from lootboxes, otherwise people may not be motivated to interact with the system.
With all those extra players in games, there's a huge new opportunity. Every 8 players that win a science victory are involuntarily queued up for a follow up game of Alpha Centauri, to determine the true winner. Culture and domination victories get queued into games of Colonization.
I think we should add a Multiplayer Ranked season System like LoL does, with constant Character reworks, so that you have to play daily to not forget all mechanics. Finally getting rid of all those damn casual gamers.
I think the game would be a lot better if there was more space between ages and military techs, and less acceleration. One of the things I don't like about civ is that doing early conquest is just suicide because you fall so far behind. Maybe have some kind of mechanic where if 20% of civs fall and/or lose their capitols within a given period of time, the whole world falls into a dark age where progress is stifled while mongolian horde rages across continents. The game is too rewarding for people who sit there with X number of cities and minimum interaction with other players.
Me as a Ukrainian. I am waiting for the modern era rebalance, it is obvious that Civilization 7 should have up to date combat units like drone operators and twitter bots. Also nice touch would be if the America is on the map any leader shall have an opportunity to ask it for money and ammunition
This is hilarious... but we are talking about the AAA game industry here, you might need to explain that this is a joke. Otherwise you might wake up to that Joker clad Gilgamesh for real.
Very good points all throughout, and perhaps I shall add a few suggestions that are quite the rage in recent popular games : Firaxis should include some lootboxes for civs and leaders, as well as cosmetics. Perhaps when you win a ranked game you get some currency in order to open a lootbox after a few games ? This way it is free, but you can also pay to get them quick Also civ can be quite boring at times, therefore an afk/idle option should be included, everybody loves watching numbers go up
Imagine a Civ 7 with the same - graphics quality and atmosphere as Manor Lords - balance and stability of multiplayer games as League of Legends - depth of strategic play / combat as Starcraft II - straightforward menu design as Mini Metro - historic charme and map-nerdiness as Europa Universalis IV - badass fun factor as the Tropico Series - wonky way of being true to the franchise's roots as Age of Empires II DE Okay, scrap this, the only thing I really need is loot boxes full of pink weapons to sell for cryptocurrencies instead of ever taking a shower again.
100% agree with every point now time to get to bed at 3 PM so I can be awake for the Herson stream at midnight and not skip work tomorrow like I usually do whenever Herson streams.
I want tons of DLC that add barely anything to the game, like Stellaris First Contact. It introduces cloaking of ships and the ability to cloak observation outposts above planets of primitive civilisations. And the three super exciting origins which seem to be fun for a few times until you play something different again. That's all. Those are all features. A single mechanic for all empires and three origins of which one seems to be kinda fun, and two others which start on a back foot and play the same with the difference that one has a bunch of randomised aliens in your empires population. I think there is also a civic or two, but is it really worth 37,5% the price of the basegame?
Im probably the minority but I wish Civ went back to its roots and provided a more historical game. More units, more unit stacking, more historical maps, gameplay based around historical progression, less micromanagement, more of a grand strategy. I want to feel that I m playing an actual nation, on a real planet earth. Civ 4 has many such great mods like Realism invictus, Rhyes and Fall, PAE, etc. Civ 7 should also be moddable, because the masterpieces that modders create is miles ahead from the base game. Some of civ3 mods still to this day provide a more in-depth and historical game than anything civ6 can provide
Invasion, hmm?! Maybe like gate to inner earth is found and 2 player maps are connected. That could be an option starting single player game, if you later feel cool enough to take on another player. Just have to find the gate first and stuff, smtn like fountain of youth.
Man your crazy mas !!! Civ needs that single player and offline mode are very important!!! You cant just eraise it!!! Oh and the lobby isnt as bad as you said ! Civ is not Civ with all that stuff
Suggestion 3# Bringing up League's menu made me gag and I'm saying it as a League player. I don't watch e-sports, I don't care about "FAKER'S BIG WIN!!". I just want to play the game dude, why 70% of my screen have to be loaded with marketing shit. Civilization will never be up to scale to LoL, DotA, CoD, etc. - it's kinda like volleyball will never beat football in popularity as a sport. Hovewer, they could make more functional multiplayer lobby, which would allow players to create a game with their friends, or to play a 'ranked game' and wouldn't be too confusing.
suggestion 1 is kinda flawed, here’s why: The Civilization series is known for its realism, graphics and otherwise. Throwing the graphics part away would be stupid. Edit: oh, this is a civ 7 shitpost.
I want less diplomatic options theyre too confusing. Also, i think kts about time that the game adress their greatest contorversy, how much they prop up the grand man theory, by making the rulers less significant and more cartoony. I think thats what civ needs
For effs sake Civ VII should learn to use multiplayer servers local to EU west EU east etc. so we don't undermine all multiplayer popularity at launch due to latency issues.
What if a friend could invade as all the remaining barbarians and the camps become cities for that moment like the great Kahn in Stellaris uniting the tribes and spreading over the world before the leader mysteriously disappears and they fall back to encampments
I know that this video is a shitpost but I do have a genuine criticism of Civ 6. My laptop is too much of a potato to run animated leaders but the static ones don't have voice lines and this frustrates me because I want to hear the talking.
They should actually work on a diplomacy system worthy of a 4x game How tf do u expect raiding civs to raid if u have to go on all out war for a single pillage??
Ranked matchmaking, elo system? Meanwhile civ 6 has more players than ANY strategy and to be fair more players than every strategy combined, not counting moba. So no it doesnt need one.
HEY MAN LONG TIME NO SEE, you'll get to a high rank like me some day. I believe in you. (its peenielinguine from league) Haven't touched league in about 8 months. Forgot I was subscribbled to you. Quality video
Nah. I have been playing for decades. I like the game. If I wanted a shoot-em-up or first-person shooter, I would buy one. I don't. Keep Civ as Civ... :)
Unironically, its always bothered me that we got spy network notifs if an ai is planning to invade, but the system was obvs useless on players. I thought assiging a priority to the dofferent govs/advisors to get a boost would be nice, and enable spies to deduce those intents for other players. "Spies found evidence that Arabia (Herson) is planning to invade Persia (noobhunterxxx)" etc
Nothing like getting gdr:d 15 turns into the game after finally getting an okayish map generation and not a snow and tundra as mali or desert as canada or being landlocked as gitarja to lighten the day
Crtoony graphics are the best for a game like civ6. It has nothing to do with adult/kids. In a game with so much onscreen info, a slight cartoony style helps to simplify schematically and dont overload our brain processing power.
If I understand correctly, the developers have always said that multiplayer is not their priority. So the disconnects won’t be fixed, and everything else is cosmetic
I pray the game won't be a woke garbage shit show (sweet baby inc send their regards) but have very low expectations for the game. So far I agree with all of your suggestions but all of them require a stable multiplayer as a prerequisite, which I am not sure if it is even on the developers priority list. Aka we need centralized servers.
quality shitposting
it took me until he said we need to be blasted with e sports on the screen until it hit me
@@captainpancake8177 being top of the leaderboards in league is what did it for me
They should replace the diplomacy system with a visual novel style dating sim system. Gotta give the single player simps their fanservice
Only option should be gilgabro
That honestly sounds great
As a straight male, I would love to romance Gilgamesh, Chandragupta, Tokimune etc.
Is there a mod for this?
Make it a gacha instead
let us marry the princess to establish an alliance with spain
The most staggering reveal is that
Herson is over level 400 on league
nah but invasions would be really funny the first three times it happens actually
only the first three though
First ~3.29 times to be more precise.
Invasions? I sleep. ALIEN Invasions? Real shit.
These are all sensible suggestions but you might not be thinking big enough. Lootboxes! Imagine the sense of pride and accomplishment a player will feel when they finally pull their favourite leader.
I would feel no accomplishment when I pulled my favourite hero from a lootbox. Comeon, grow up. Lootboxes is completely f'ed up.
@@Matory6it's sarcasm my friend.
You've got to make sure that all the most powerful leaders can only be earned from lootboxes, otherwise people may not be motivated to interact with the system.
@@MA6O he is most likely legit about that opinion.
@@Matory6Google "a sense of pride and accomplishment"
Looking at Helldivers 2 success Firaxis should add PSN account to the game
With all those extra players in games, there's a huge new opportunity. Every 8 players that win a science victory are involuntarily queued up for a follow up game of Alpha Centauri, to determine the true winner.
Culture and domination victories get queued into games of Colonization.
Every person who wins a science victory must then play a mandatory round of Beyond Earth
I think we should add a Multiplayer Ranked season System like LoL does, with constant Character reworks, so that you have to play daily to not forget all mechanics. Finally getting rid of all those damn casual gamers.
What's wrong with casual gamers?
Firaxis and Civ crew and caring about their community KEK my brother just KEK
Skarner moment
100% Orange Juice is the absolute peak of strategy games
if civ 7 does not have custom emotes im done with the series
4:17 Peak moment of the video, thank you Herson.
Audio peak moment as well
I hope Firaxis watches this video, very good points all throughout
somebody missed the April 1st mark by a long shot😭😭😭😭 bro did not cook
Great choice of a clip for a voice chat demo, makes your appreciate a fellow connoisseur

If they actually take these suggestions as not a joke then youre realllyyyyy gonna regret this video next year
Nice one it took me too long to see the irony I'm too old as a gamer :')

Faaaark I thought this was gonna be a boring long recommendations video. Boy was I wrong. You should rename it.
herson, you're just a silly goose in a ducks world.

You also need a gatcha system to get the new civilisation, starting with only 3 you do not choose.
what mod you you use for the food counter at the top of the UI at 7:03?
Bs

5:18 genuinely hurt me to the soul 😭
They should make civ 7 subscription based! That would motivate people to spend more time playing.
I meowed hard watching this

This is honestly the content that makes games go south.

who needs a good wifi connection when you can have this masterpiece?
I hope civ VII will bring in some quality combat system tbh, civ VIs is shit. Endless Legeds' system is really good imo

They should infuse the game with political messaging and include George Washington as a strong independent black woman.
LMAO that trynda insert 🤣🤣🤣
Along it has microtransactions and is pay-to-win, then I think they can be more flexible with the other elements
I came for nanaysis from someone who has a unique perspective on Civ
got something way better tbh
Do the opposite of what he said!
They should actually work on a diplomacy system worthy of a 4x game
How tf do u expect raiding civs to raid if u have to go on all out war for a single pillage??
oh good they might be watching and taking notes nooooooo
These ideas are so terrible that Firaxis will definitely have at least one of them in the real game.
i just want a challenging AI that doesn't cheat
An AI that doesn't cause the game to crash would also be very nice.
Ranked matchmaking, elo system? Meanwhile civ 6 has more players than ANY strategy and to be fair more players than every strategy combined, not counting moba. So no it doesnt need one.
Did you really not get the blatant sarcasm here?
I wish the civ v environment skin didn’t cause desyncs in multiplayer
please add lootboxes, please add lootboxes, please add lootboxes
Satire will become reality, i assure you
why is 100% OJ in the thumbnail what is this
HEY MAN LONG TIME NO SEE, you'll get to a high rank like me some day. I believe in you. (its peenielinguine from league) Haven't touched league in about 8 months. Forgot I was subscribbled to you. Quality video
Cleopatra would 100% be Catwoman, not Spiderman

To master your mastery you need to get good at dota 2
Just go 11/10 on voice chat like Civ: BE did, and hide it behind a hotkey that is described literally NOWHERE in the menu
Honestly think that leader skins would be fun. Imagine bearpelt wearing hunter roosevelt, or goth baddie cleopatra 💀
They can try actually having a functional AI for once instead of just giving the braindead AI scaling difficulty cheats.
Nothing like getting gdr:d 15 turns into the game after finally getting an okayish map generation and not a snow and tundra as mali or desert as canada or being landlocked as gitarja to lighten the day
I know you jest, but leader customization would kick ass.
This is done far too well.
Crtoony graphics are the best for a game like civ6. It has nothing to do with adult/kids.
In a game with so much onscreen info, a slight cartoony style helps to simplify schematically and dont overload our brain processing power.
and it allows not needing powerfull computers, so it makes it more democratic. which is more important than graphical masturbation.
your pic suits your comments
@@SkyForceOne2 thank you
If I understand correctly, the developers have always said that multiplayer is not their priority. So the disconnects won’t be fixed, and everything else is cosmetic
I like the idea of raids because it would require an internet connection to play single player!
I want my scouts to ride bunnies
I wouldn’t mind skins tbh😂
Hmmmm I suspect some facetiousness
Worst 7 minutes ever spent in my life on RUclips
*BEST
Stable connection, their own servers, ranked multiplayer
I like the idea of a campaign like in stronghold and stronghold crusader.
Brilliant
damn, fresh teddy
Investing at 7 k subs
I think the concept of Treaty and Border trade/Border gore would be funny to have
I think they should add shrex mode (gilgamesh)
Ghandi smoking a massive doobie is going to be amazing as a skin
Better multiplayer!!! Im tired of desync problems
Remake alpha centauri or space future please
