Can we play longer than 100 years?

[RedHaze1911]

Im thinking of picking up the game but as an ex-civ player im a bit worried about the 100 year time limit. I like the idea of playing an infinite sandbox and not be worried and stressed about if im effective enough to "win" by a certain number of years. Is there any way to bypass that? Is it planned as a dlc sandbox mode or something? Or should i not be worried about it cause it takes a gazillion hrs to finish 100 years?

There is a button to continue playing after 1936.
But currently optimization of the game is pretty bad, so chances are you won't be willing to.

You mean the game balance will be severely off, or it will literally start running badly?

Literally lags, and it starts even earlier, depending on your pc and empire size

You can, but:
1. You'll run out of technologies to research.
2. The game will lag. Horribly so.
3. Game balance is also unsuited for a longer play. For example, you'll hit a rubber cap.

depends, can you even get to the 100 year limit before dying of boredom?

I play gr with 1 level of constuction sector as it's too expensive to upgrade it, it's almost 1900 and I've literally done nothing other than economy which led to incessant building stuff with no pops to man them, tried to colonise senegal and congo but by the time I could afford it it was 1870+, timeline needs to stretch out a bit, not the time boundaries, but somehow slow down and definitely do smt about construction pace.

You need to make more construction sectors off the bat. Take a loss of profit for a few years to boom later.

But yeah the game is too slow very early to consider playing until the end.

I got to 1911 once and it was just too slow

might be applicable, though I have started over like 3-4 times, couldn't make it without deficit going wild, I'm sure I'm making mistakes and messing up without knowing but some things are evident like the short campaign length yes. The time period does not help since so much stuff happened in these 100 years but imo this should be the direction of teh game, slow down the time so all those things that happened take their place in the form or quests/events/gameplay
