Civilization V + DLC's, G&K, BNW - Page 102

Neben den beschriebenen neuen Spielmechaniken, Features und Politiken erwarten euch natürlich auch weitere Völker in Civilization 5: Brave New World. Neun, um genau zu sein, wobei wir euch vier (darunter ein echtes „Pro“-Volk) leider noch nicht nennen dürfen.

So when people dig stuff up it’s really cool. For example, if you send one of your archaeologists off to France, you’re going to find stuff that pertains to them. You might find a spearhead from a French spearman that died to a Moroccan warrior, so you actually see stuff that’s happened to other civilizations.

Aside from new cultural options, Brave New World also introduces the World Congress. How does that fit into the game?

The World Congress is founded when you’ve met every civilisation in the world and you’ve also researched the printing press. It’s very simple when it starts: whoever founded it gets to be the host and they get two delegates that can vote and everybody else gets a single delegate. Being the host means that you can put forth one of the two resolutions.
The resolutions encompass a wide range of either selfish resolutions, or punishing resolutions, or there are resolutions for the benefit of humanity on world projects like the International Space Station, World’s Fair, things like that.
But we start out fairly simply. After thirty turns you all vote on the resolutions that were proposed. In the next era after that the cycle continues again, more resolutions are passed and everybody gets a few more delegates to work with now, and then a few more the next era after that until everybody’s got a sizeable chunk of delegates to be able to spread their votes around.
At that point you’re going to be assigning diplomats, which are another type of spy, so you can actually try to buy or sell votes. There’s a whole lot of meta gaming going on in terms of managing a lot of the vote process later in the game. We try to always creating these systems so they start with a very small footprint – they’re very easy to get into and do not get complex until players are ready for them to be complex.

i play on terra but the way they've set them up, compared to the Dutch who are also supposed to be a naval civ is a stark contrast. The Dutch still get plodders and they still get that great early game trade bonus. The Portuguese are basically without any bonus at all if they dont have a port.

uu is a caravel that goes faster and can be destroyed for extra resources inside a CS, a building that you can build in a CS territory so you can get access to more resources -- but only if they are across a water from you -- and a thing that gives you more water trade routes. or so i get from the video that blue posted
