Civilization 7 patch aims to improve gameplay and UI

pcgamer.com

A new update for Civilization 7 will be released tomorrow, March 25. This patch aims to improve the game's user interface and add new gameplay features. The update will introduce a "quick move" function that allows units to move without transition animations. Players will also be able to rename their settlements and commanders. Other changes include keeping town panels open after purchases and adding notifications when cities are under attack. Despite these updates, Civilization 7 is struggling to match the popularity of its predecessors, Civilization 5 and 6. The game received mixed reviews and its user rating on Steam has not improved significantly since its launch. Currently, the number of players online for Civilization 7 is even lower than for the 15-year-old Civilization 5. Game developers Firaxis acknowledge that the user interface has been a major issue. While earlier patches have addressed some problems, this new update is not expected to provide a complete overhaul. Changes are also being made to gameplay pacing. For example, eliminating players will now earn less progress in certain ages. Overall, while the patch brings welcome features, it may not be enough to elevate Civilization 7 to the success of its predecessors. Players will need to wait and see how future updates improve the game.
