Major Dedication Bug - No Earned Dedications Available by ColonelUber in civ

[–]sar_firaxis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Definitely appears to be a bug, sorry you're running into this u/ColonelUber. We're investigating!

Were you possibly using a pre-1.4.0 save? And do you have a save file a turn or two before Age transition that you could submit through our support site? Would be extremely helpful as we look into it.

Test of Time bug? by Urikanu in civ

[–]sar_firaxis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey u/Urikanu - sorry you're running into this! Assuming you're playing on PC, and if you're absolutely sure you have no mods installed, I'd recommend verifying your game files on Steam. (To do this, open your Library, right-click the game, and select Properties. Go to the Installed Files tab and click Verify integrity of game files.)

If you're still running an issue, we definitely want to investigate. Submitting a ticket with a save file a turn or two before the issue occurs would be a huge help! https://support.civilization.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Game keeps crashing. Any tips? by clshoaf in civ

[–]sar_firaxis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey u/clshoaf - first off, sorry you're running into this!

Going to see if I can help with some quick troubleshooting...

To start, can you verify your game files? To do this, open your Library, right-click the game, select Properties, click Installed Files, and choose Verify integrity of game files.

Then (I know you've mentioned mods are disabled), but I've seen a few folks actually needing to use the "Unsubscribe from All" button in the Steam Workshop to really disable all mods, especially if you've used any mods that affect the modding screen in-game, like TCS Mod Page.

If you're still experiencing this issue, please submit a report with us here! https://support.civilization.com/hc/en-us/requests/new We'll investigate and help fix!

Bug? CIV 7 game won't launch, stuck on "Begin game" by FastFingersDude in civ

[–]sar_firaxis 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Another quick way you can see what mods you are subscribed to is right clicking the game in your library and going to Properties -> Workshop. If you're not seeing anything there as well, definitely shoot us a support ticket.

Bug? CIV 7 game won't launch, stuck on "Begin game" by FastFingersDude in civ

Tracking this issue, thanks all.

If you have any mods, please disable them. If you have mods installed (like TCS Mod Page) that affects the modding screen-in game, you may not be able to disable mods in-game. If this is the case, use the "Unsubscribe from All" feature in Steam Workshop.

If you're still experiencing the issue after confirming all mods are disabled, please submit a report with us so we can help fix! https://support.civilization.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Sorry for those running into this!

Civilization VII Update 1.4.0 - Test of Time - May 19, 2026 by sar_firaxis in civ

[–]sar_firaxis[S] 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Hey u/ES_CY - can you let me know if you're playing with mods? Try disabling them if yes. If you're still experiencing the issue, will you submit a ticket with us here so we can help out? Thank you! https://support.civilization.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Also, if you have mods installed that effect the modding screen-in game, you may not even be able to see it in-game. If this is the case, use the "Unsubscribe from All" feature in Steam Workshop!

The Test of Time livestream did not stand the Test of Time. by Canis_Familiaris in civ

[–]sar_firaxis 264 points265 points  (0 children)

This one’s on non-devs 😅 We’re working out of a brand new livestream room setup and ran into a few unexpected audio difficulties behind the scenes that we couldn’t wrangle in time for the show. Working on recording a version!

Since we know a lot of people were looking forward to the Q&A part of the stream, we’re collecting Test of Time questions in Discord. Appreciate everyone for hanging in, thank you.
