And more interesting things are happening in #Civ7!

We are now running our first "Game Of The Month" (GOTM). The GOTM is a competition where we, as a community, start with the same savegame, and try to make the very best out of it. We don't only try to beat the game, but also we try to beat every other civfanatic! For this first game there is no specific goal yet. We want you to play this savegame and submit it at the end of Antiquity before March 15. Then we want to compare the games, and see what could make sense for a competition. If you want to know more about the GOTM and downoad the savegame, then please check here https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/civ7-gotm01.695328/

Obviously it's again a busy #Civ7 day!

As most important news, we got the patch 1.0.1 Patch 3, which includes stability improvements, fixed issues with Isabella's ability, a bunch of other bug fixes and UI improvements, of which one was inspired by our modder sukritact. For the whole changelog please see here https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/civilization-vii-1-0-1-patch-3.695299/

Firaxis has also released a funny trailer about wonders, and many people might recognize themself in it. Check the discussion here https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/sid-meiers-civilization-vii-wonders-live-action-trailer.695310/

Polygon reports that you can get Civ7 at Newegg for 15$ off (if you use the right code), but it is unclear if this applies also to outside the USA. Check the thread here https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/polygon-civ-7-is-already-on-sale-at-newegg-54-99-instead-of-69-99.695309/

More Civ7 news today!

In the big livestream Firaxis revealed that there will be a VR version of #Civ7 ! Not much more is known about it, besides that it will happen in spring for the Meta Quest. Want to discuss these news? Check here https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/civ-7-in-vr.695021/ !

As second item we have that our member Giskler has been going throug the game files, and has discovered that there are already signs of future (or maybe removed) content. This includes a 4th age, the Ottomans, Pirate republic and 3 more civs as well as new leaders. Check the discussion here https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/asset-file-hinting-at-future-and-or-cut-content.695000/.

As last important news item we have that modders are still working on improving the UI. We got 2 small mods with some UI improvements, one from thecrazyscot here https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/tcs-ui-mods.694803/ , and one from sukritact here https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/sukritacts-simple-ui-adjustments.695023/. Check out if the more of info is what you need for your next round of Civ7!

@RamenCatholic @gsymon @pvonhellermannn while it is an interesting career, I'd caution that it's probably not long-term sustainable, and maybe not the most rewarding thing in the world.

Also doing your hobby for work ruins the fun in it ;).

@pfefferle hey there, I'm checking your activitypub plugin for wordpress, and I wonder how that...er... completely works. We have a WP blog, where we post news. So this would be useful. But can I interact via this account then also with other people, without posting something to WP directly? Or reboost?? Just trying to understand how this fully works, any insights appreciated :).
