Civilization VI

Cheers ark.

Should I get GS or do I also need R&F?

pepp77 · 2 Jun 2020 at 12:44

GS doesn’t need rise and fall, it means you lose any civs or wonders added in RF but nothing else.

the base game is also currently available on switch for under £14 from eneba.

Cheers pepp.
CDKeys has the platinum edition on for £27.... GS is £17 and RF is a tenner. May as well get the plat edition and get the other DLCs...
I already have Civ 6, would there be a problem adding the CDKeys steam key to my steam? (would I end up with two copies of Civ 6 effectively?)

pepp77 · 2 Jun 2020 at 13:17

I think that’s what I did, bought the base and then after a while bought the platinum as it was only about £3 more than GS on its own at the time.
I only see civ once in my steam so not sure what happens to the vanilla key

Cavallino · 2 Jun 2020 at 13:19

Thanks pepp, thats what ill do methinks..
By the way dont suppose you get any crashes as I asked above?
It seems to be a mixed bag....

pepp77 · 2 Jun 2020 at 13:36

Nope for me it is very stable. Had an issue with a mod I used on vanilla clashing with GS, mod was production queue, Removed it and all resolved and it only clashed because Firaxis added a queue to the actual game.

today I have about 25 mods running (Ui changes, new civs, new units, extra city states) and no issues.

I just purchased Civ Platinum but when I click on the game it showsa thumbnail for Civ 6 new frontier pass... not sure whats going on here!

pepp77 · 2 Jun 2020 at 14:33

So does mine and I have Frontier Pass - its just an advertising splash. Just click Play above it.

Platinum edition includes everything except the stuff from the new frontier pass I believe

Correct

Cavallino · 2 Jun 2020 at 15:46

Yep this is what I thought but I still get a logo showing the Frontier Pass for some reason...

pepp77 · 2 Jun 2020 at 15:50

Show us a pic of this if you can?

Cavallino · 2 Jun 2020 at 15:58

pepp77 · 2 Jun 2020 at 16:03

Oh on there, that''s just a picture, it updated to that on the day of its release I believe.

You can see the DLC you have above GS just below where your picture ends.

Mine shows Maya and Gran Columbia as well as the Frontier pass there.

Cavallino · 2 Jun 2020 at 16:06

So it will be the same regardless of what version of Civ you have? (Could have sworn mine was still showing Civ 6).

pepp77 · 2 Jun 2020 at 16:08

I honestly cant remember, but to be fair does it matter. When you load the actual game as long as you have the GS stuff you are good, if you magically also have the FP stuff (Armageddon mode will show) then you are a lucky little sod.

Cavallino · 2 Jun 2020 at 16:13

Ill take a look tonight

Ive preloaded everything!
