Game forces me back to main menu at end of antiquity

[DigbethKid]

I'm on turn 64, about 40% age progress, taking the only AI opponents (that I've met) capital, and the age suddenly ends. The game tells me I unlocked some points for the next age, but then the only button to progress is continue, I press that, then in the same place a button that says Exit to Main Menu appears and that's all I can do. I don't get it, I don't think I turned off age changing, not intentionally anyways. Anyone know what's happening?

Same thing just happened to me in a multiplayer game with a friend. Antiquity age ended and only option was to go back to main menu.

It is possible you set up the game to only play a single age. I'm not saying you did, but that is a whole thing in Civ 7 so maybe you did it on accident?

😯 Shift what ? 64 ? 40% of the campaign done or 40% of the Era done? 😬 Don't scare me, what's the full turn limit for the 3 Eras combined? Does anyone know ...fk I'm already getting 🤯

I don't think I did that, I certainly didn't intend to if I did. That's the only thing that makes sense, though. Unfortunately I don't think there's a way to see the options I selected once the game has been made.

Turn 64 of the antiquity age, 40% progress through the age. I attack the only AI I've found, taking her Capital, and the age abruptly ends, says Victory, takes me to the end of age screens and the only option I have is to exit to main menu. I don't get it.

Umm. The way you explained it, did you just get a millitary victory? The AI should shift its capital but maybe the last AI doesnt get this deal? Weird

It was the only AI opponent I had encountered, and the only one shown on the stats screen at the end of the age other than myself. I was playing on a tiny map, with three or four other Civs. Even if the other Civs got wiped out (unlikely) by turn 64, wouldn't they appear on the end of game screen? I also didn't get an achievement for victory.

How many turns have all campaign , you all ready finish one game ? - Maybe that is just a bug like the problem os the saves ..as the game is new, it may have some crashes or bugs like this, and report them in the bugs thread

XD. yea turn 64 seems too quick a death for All AI..

Did you load a save between patches? This essentially ended my epic game length playthrough with game ending bugs so im sitting idle till the game is more polished if this is how badly its going to bug out existing games.

It's about 100 to 150 turns per age so 300 to 450 for the whole game but I think they will add more ages later, I think at least 2 so you get 500 to 750 turns per game which is standard for a civ game

OK everyone, I fired up a new game and when going through the options, I think last time I cleared more Civs than I thought were initially going to be in the game. I thought I was playing against four Civs but now that I've looked at the options again I'm pretty sure I cleared out all but one other Civ, which would make sense why the game is ending so abruptly. Game has some weird menus...
