Appreciate the edited version. I find it more challenging to watch multiplayer streams because of the turn timers. This was easier to digest and entertaining in a different way from your single player series.
my stupid ass though that you started the same chalange again because in first time portugal wasnt average joo, and around the 3th city i was like wait a minute this map looks familiar.
This video is the perfect way to prove to the Crusader Kings people who think you're bad at Civ that you're not. If you can win against 11 people in multiplayer then their argument has nothing to stand on (disregarding you have the deity cheats)
@@bradjones7491 yeah this happened so often, the solution I found was reducing the amount of allocated memory to graphics, most of the crashes stopped by every 3-4 hours my game crash. At least I don't get the end turn of infinite anymore.
Hey folks, I'm the English player in this vid! Was so much fun to be part of the collective curb stomp and I'm proud of my fellow noobs for how long we were able to hold out. It was like being in a horror film, seeing this expanding, unrelenting, and unstoppable force slowly making it's way towards you. Potato I've been watching your content for years now and it was such a lovely chance to play a game with you. Rule Britannia, Britannia rules the waves (except when fighting naval Egypt, who'd have thought?).
I swear when I play Canada in multiplayer I get thalassophobia, I never settle coastal city out of fear of getting dumped by an armada from dido or norway early game
@@isaacpowrie465 Portugal, spain, phoenicia, norway, heck even japan are a nightmare to deal with. The best option is just to settle a bit further away, and while you lose on being able to build boats and stuff, at least you dont have to invest everything on a navy that will get shredded in a death war 30 turns later
Hey Spudies! I'm the Russia player in this video. Had an absolute blast playing with everyone. My teammates were great and it was an honor to be able to play with Potato. I learned everything I know about Civ from watching his videos over the last 4 years. Genuinely thought I might be able to pull out a Culture of Diplomacy victory, but I had a really rough jungle start with very little production. I'm very much looking forwards to seeing the next videos in the series. Good luck in your future games and I hope you all have a wonderful day!
I didn’t watch the first 2 but this is an absolute GENIUS series. Civ is already a hard game in terms of algorithm to keep retention due to so many parts needed to show off a full game, but stuff like this is an absolute BANGER to show off your skill to people who may not watch the channel in a much more bite sized piece
The most impressive thing about this to me is that every single ai opponent has these bonuses on deity difficulty and they're so bad at the game that they still lose.
It is true, lol. Like you should be defensive in the beginning until the medieval after this, you can dominate on your continent by occupation. The game gets easier when you have more cities and resources than others, and you can dominate with any way you can possibly imagine.
31:05 Egyptians were famously beer drinkers. All of the pay that workers received included beer back then. An ancient Egyptian going to Germany for a nice cold beer. I wonder how they would like modern German beer.
bet they dont, its carbonated and it is apparently stronger also i might bet all the industrialized plants and the method of brewing and all that would i think throw off a person from 4k years ago
Haven't watched the video yet but I'm going to predict that choosing a water map is going to be the players downfall. I used to play 1vX (deity ai in civ 5) and the only thing you needed was breathing room. So forcing a desert spawn (likely to be central) and then containing potato on 2-3 cities with 5-6 players (archers and blocker units) while the rest expands and surpasses in science to deal the final blow would have been best
Yeah I heard Potato say this map was a good idea to stop his snowball but they needed to be way more proactive in defending their weaker targets for this to work
And then there's the Civ IV ai which is actually just cracked. If you play on EMPEROR, the game is a huge challenge to everyone except the mega experts. Playing deity in civ iv is just suicide.
Just getting started on it, but I think the city states not being deity level is kind of unfair. IDK if you can force the city states to higher difficulty, but they 100% should start with walls
I really enjoy your videos.. I think you should do more of these, rather than just playing harder and harder competition. Fun way for your fans to interact with you, and more interesting as a casual player to see how they play as well as your higher level of play. I know this didn't work out skill wise exactly the way you intended (all noobs) but it was very entertaining...
phenomenal video even better than usual as a viewer it was really nice to see that high level of engagement with the fans. I feel like if they would have focused half the team on navy and half the time to swarm the coast with big heavy units or horses etc...like you mentioned if they could distract you from building navy that can spread you thin. Also they needed to take one player and dedicate that one to denying the venetian arsenal from you. you should do this again sometime and further randomize the settings
I think a good civ/map choice to beat Potato would have been giving him Scotland on True Start Location Earth. He's confined to an island so tiny he can't even use all three of his settlers at the start, hampering his ability to use deity bonuses to boom, and doesn't even have mountains to get good campus adjency to get to Shipbuilding more quickly. Two of the noobs' civs should be Norway to harrass him with Longboats and a central European civ like Germany or Netherlands to snatch up all of the settling locations on the European mainland before Potato can get there, also building up their defenses so he has a hard time to land an army and conquer those cities.
I've been trying to find what mod you used to give yourself the Deity bonuses, not just the extra starting units, but also the production and other yields bonuses. What's the name on the workshop??
Yeah I'd say you have to rush the Buffed player other wise you will get out teched. Also I feel like half of your team really should be Maori They are the better choice to rush with seeing how they can get not only sword men earlier, a worker + sailing. On top of all that, extra res on base tiles so they don't need to worry much about trying to tech or eco at all. They can just start flooding the seas with troops. Granted Seeing no doubles it's likely a rule to not double up other wise the Maori hoard would be hard to deal with.
Bwahahaha the chat at the end 32:26 was pretty funny. Cool video idea man! I think it would have been even funnier if you were in a discord call with everyone so y'all could smack talk hahahaha.
“Should I build Stonehenge? For the memes.” Unless this game lasts long enough for Comets to be a factor, I suppose you can use it for great AA cover over your cities.
With the double ships wonder and the deity bonuses it was basically impossible to prevent a snowball... However some of the other players had good ideas.
The title alone got me to subscribe like and comment. I can’t wait to watch this video. First I need to decide what to eat while I watch. Very excited so happy this was recommended to me!!!!!
How do you set up a game like this always wanted to try something where its all the ai vs myself but I with myself at diety and the ai on a prince start?
This is an edited down version of the livestream! Hope you guys enjoy!

Yes, the meme, the meme wonder is back, Baby!
He really played the long con, making everyone think he hated it it huh.
Archipelago does take away your advantages as a land-locked civ. But it also provided you the highway to the soft and weak underbelly simcity civs LOL
Its a catch 32, they can settle first in a coastal city to be able to build a navy or settle with as many tiles away from the sea
@@mosesracal6758 10 more than the normal catch 22?

The absolutely most EVIL giggle when you found the first player...LOL i just laughed so hard. That was great :)
He did survive tho kudos
For anyone looking for the mod Potato used in this video, it's called Human AI Yields
When you realize that the AI can't even beat you with all of those bonuses but the civ 5 AI could do it with 1/5 of the bonuses.
And then there's the Civ IV ai which is actually just cracked. If you play on EMPEROR, the game is a huge challenge to everyone except the mega experts. Playing deity in civ iv is just suicide.

The 11 players had a game plan from the start really interesting to watch
I knew deity got a lot of bonuses, but also starting with 5 units. No wonder the aggro AI walks over me
Wait, I recognize Portugal. Like the player I’ve met them before in a live chat

This is absolute gold. Look forward to more
5 minutes in and I can already tell this is going to be a fairly straight forward win the 5 cities in 15 turns is just unbeatable really.

please do this more, even my friends who don't play this game found it entertaining

i've been lurking for a while, but this hilarious video made me sub :D

Potato, the reason for which they could see your privateers is because city centres and encampments reveal naval raider units withing 2 two tiles.
