Civilization VI offers you new ways to interact with the world, allowing you to play as one of 20 historical leaders including Roosevelt or Queen Victoria. Just like the majority of newly released games, Civilization VI brings a series of issues that severely limit the gaming experience. Players report they can’t download the game, camera bugs prevent them from following their scouts, sound plays too fast and more.

Sound plays to fast

Civilization VI fans  report sound plays at a fast rate, and as a result Eddard speaks way too fast and so does the music in the background. Some gamers even report that after turning the sound and the music off, Civilization VI no longer crashed. You can fix the sound bug by reducing the sampling rate for your sound card. Change it from 24bit 192000Hz to 16bit 48000hz, or to 24 bit 96000 Hz  and it should work fine. How to do this:

Camera bugs prevent gamers from exploring territories

Gamers report that at the end of every single turn, the camera goes back to the capital city, preventing them from following their scouts. This bug is extremely annoying because it forces gamers to look for their units after every turn, wasting precious time.

Civilization VI won’t launch

Often, when gamers hit the play button, Civilization VI remains unresponsive, nothing really happens. Other players report that a window pops up but instantly disappears. Users tried various workarounds, such as reinstall Visual C++ 2015, updating Windows, but nothing seems to work. For the time being, there is no workaround available for this issue, and gamers put all their hope in the upcoming game patches. SPONSORED

Left arrow keys are unavailable

This is not actually an issue, but rather a game limitation. Players request that the game developers also add support for the WASD keys because using the arrow keys on the right side is awkward.

Scrolling with mouse on screen edge is tricky

The option to scroll with mouse on screen edge can be quickly enabled in the game settings. However, using this option can be tricky. The top part of the screen has a little info bar and if you put the mouse on here, it doesn’t scroll. Instead, you should put the mouse near the edge of the game window view at the top. Gamers also complain they can accidentally scroll when trying to use buttons on the top right of screen.

The UI is too tiny

Many gamers complain about eye strain caused by the tiny text on the user interface. Apparently, there isn’t a single resolution that supports the UI upscaling, but gamers hope that the upcoming patches will address this UI issue.

AI declare war in unison

Many Civilization VI players consider this AI behavior is rather abnormal since they offer no reason to be attacked. Some gamers got attacked after round 6, which is really annoying because this gives them no time to properly upgrade their military, technology and economy. These are the most frequent Civilization VI issues reported by gamers.
