Firaxis, the renowned developer behind the popular strategy series, has announced a new patch aimed at enhancing the gaming experience for Civilization 7. This update seeks to tackle several user interface inconsistencies, bugs, and artificial intelligence issues that have been the subject of user feedback since the game’s beta release.
Temporary Changes to Crossplay
One of the most significant changes brought by this patch is the temporary suspension of crossplay between PC and console players. This decision was made to ensure that updates could be rolled out more swiftly for PC users, as Firaxis prioritizes resolving initial concerns raised by the community. While crossplay will remain possible among console players, PC gamers will experience a brief interruption until further updates are stabilized.
User Feedback and Future Releases
The community’s feedback has been instrumental in shaping the development process for Civilization 7. Although some users have expressed dissatisfaction, evidenced by the mixed ratings on Steam, the developers have shown a strong commitment to long-term support and improvement of the game. With the full launch scheduled for February 11, Firaxis aims to address these issues before the official release.
The patch not only focuses on immediate fixes but signifies Firaxis' dedication to sustaining the game’s quality over time. Despite the temporary suspension of crossplay, the development team is optimistic that these changes will result in a more polished experience for both new and seasoned players. Future updates are in place to reintegrate crossplay features, ensuring a seamless transition as new improvements are deployed.
