00:00Hey Civ fans! Sean Wilson here, QA lead at Firaxis. You may recognize me from a couple

00:12of our live streams in the little videos we would send out talking about the game while we were early

00:16in development. Now I'm here today to talk about our updates for patch 1.2.3. Now this is a smaller

00:23update than June's, but one that hits a couple long requested features and lays the groundwork

00:28for some much larger changes we're working on that we mentioned in our last dev check-in.

00:34Let's start with a feature many of you have been asking for, Auto Explorer. Yes, it's finally here.

00:41We've mentioned before that scouts work a bit differently in Civ 7 than Civ 6, which is why we

00:46wanted players to have the opportunity to play with scouts new abilities instead of adding in

00:51Auto Explorer right away. But we hear you. Sometimes it's easier to let the scouts and ships

00:58loose, allowing them to find discoveries, encounter a new Civ, or walk right into danger.

01:04Here are all the units that have access to Auto Explorer. Scouts of all ages, including their

01:10unique variants. Tier 2 and 3 naval units from the exploration age, including the Karak and the

01:17Galleon. Note that this does not include the Tier 1 COG unit. And finally, all modern age naval units,

01:24excluding the submarine, which includes the Ironclad, Ship of the Line, Cruiser, Dreadnought, Destroyer,

01:30and Battleship. A big thanks to everyone who took part in our feedback event on Discord. It helped shape

01:37what the first version of Auto Explorer looks like, and also the potential evolution of this feature

01:42down the road. We'll be keeping an eye on how this feels and plays out in practice.

01:46What's that? Oh, that's right. We're also introducing the first round of changes coming

01:54to the Advisor Warnings. These are the little pop-ups from your military, economic, scientific,

02:01or cultural advisors. Unless you've turned them off completely in your settings, you've probably seen

02:06them chime in on things like, another civilization is building the wonder you're going for, or your

02:11treasury is overflowing. We've been combing through a ton of players' feedback from our Discord event.

02:17Huge thanks if you've chimed in. And it seems like some of these messages were showing up too often

02:22or at weird moments, like getting a warning that nuclear weapons are available when you've already

02:27built a WMD and a bomber. So, we've reopened the hood and made some initial fixes. Small stuff,

02:34but it should already feel a bit smoother. And we're not done. This is just the first pass in an effort to

02:40improve Advisor Warnings. More cleanup and tuning will roll out in future updates.

02:46In our dev update check-in, we mentioned that we have heard feedback from significant segments of

02:51our community that we needed to do more work on the abruptness of age transition, improving the

02:56overall game replayability, looking especially hard at the legacy paths, and search for new avenues to

03:02allow players to identify more deeply with their empire and its path through history.

03:07A lot of this work is brewing right now behind the scenes, but this month, our focus is especially

03:14on the age abruptness. Here's a quick look at what has changed. In 1-2-3, we've added a new

03:20advanced game setting to change how age transition behaves. This new default is called continuity,

03:26and the old transition setting is called regroup. Here's what you can expect with continuity on.

03:32Your units upgrade where they stand, rather than regroup back to your empire. If your units were

03:39on someone else's territory, they'll be expelled like if you lost open borders, but they'll remain

03:45nearby. Ships and siege units will now carry over from antiquity to exploration, as well as settlers,

03:52migrants, scouts, and merchants in all ages. We've made changes to how your relationships with leaders

03:59evolve at transition. Players told us that diplomacy could feel a little jarring, like when you'd spend

04:05antiquity locked in conflict with Confucius, only for him to suddenly act like a polite stranger the

04:10moment you entered exploration. In this update, we've replaced those sudden relationship shifts

04:16with a more gradual change that pulls relationships back towards neutral over time. The further you are

04:22from zero, whether friend or foe, the greater the pull. In other words, time heals all wounds. If you

04:30don't interact with a player after a particularly nasty diplomatic incident, you won't be stuck in that

04:36hostile relationship forever. And on the flip side, if you want to maintain that alliance with your best

04:41friend across the border, don't forget to push a few positive endeavors now and then. Also, since there are

04:48more ways to damage ties currently than build them, we've balanced things out by making the pull a bit

04:54stronger for when you're in a bad relationship as opposed to a good one. This change should make your

05:00relationship with other leaders feel a lot more natural, especially across age transitions. And some

05:06smaller but still impactful changes, catapults and merchants are now available at the start of exploration

05:13age. Buildings now retain their full base yield and maintenance cost in age transition. They will

05:19still lose adjacencies and special effects. Independent powers will now spawn at the beginning of the age

05:25after an age transition. We'll continue to expand continuity mode in future updates, but we hope these

05:32initial changes help the next empire flow more smoothly between ages. As always, let us know how it feels.

05:39And one more change that should help tackle abruptness. We've added a 10 or more turn safe

05:47zone at the end of each age that guarantees you can finish your most critical tasks before the transition

05:53occurs. This countdown can be extended to 20 turns or turned off completely. No age progression from any

06:00source other than elapsed turns will be added while the countdown is active. And this should give you a little

06:06more warning so you know an age transition is coming up. Like I mentioned earlier, this is just the start.

06:13We're underway with more plans to improve key areas of the game and expand things with each and every update.

06:20Now, on to something that will be available for all players alongside 123.

06:25Truong Ni, a unique commander. Our designers have had a long time desire to give Truong Track a unique army

06:32commander Truong Ni to represent their epic sisterhood. Truong Ni has her own unique model,

06:39promotion tree, and functionality. And those are the highlights for 123. Like every update, you can expect

06:47plenty more and detailed changes that impact the UI, quality of life, AI, and game balance. There's a lot

06:55more in the update notes, so check them out soon for the full list of changes and improvements.

07:00And for those of you who own the Founders Edition of Civilization VII, the wait is over as the Right

07:06to Rule Collection rollout will begin with the release of 123. We hope you enjoy what's in this update,

07:12including the new commander Truong Ni. There's plenty more on the way, so keep leaving us your feedback

07:19and let us know how this update feels. We'll see you here next month, Civ fans.
