Anno 1800, city-building in the industrial revolution

Me too, favourably with such a map!

Fire, Illness, and Riots are the 3 bad incidents that can happen in Anno 1800

Man I wish this was available right now.

Someone translate plz!

Anyway just watch the videos , shows off some of the higher class buildings. :)

Pretty good auto-translate, IMHO:

From the article I have deduced Writing Bull is a Youtuber.

I like this part of the translation:

Also, the article says Open Beta April 12-14!

Is that only for those that pre-purchase? If so, do you have to pre-purchase through UBI store?

According to The Anno Union:

Announcing the Anno 1800 Open Beta
With all that said, we want to leave you all with a special treat to show our appreciation- the Anno 1800 Open Beta, coming April 12th-14th. So what does Open Beta mean? Just what it says on the cover- it will be open to anyone interested in testing the game prior to launch! No need to sign up, no need to cross your fingers to receive a key- just download the Open Beta client, and start playing once it goes live on the 12th.

Wow. That is pretty generous.

It certainly doesn’t detract from my hopeful guess that Ubi knows they’ve got something pretty special in Anno 1800…

From the 2 tests I’ve been a part of its really great, possibly my GOTY. :)

Ohhhhh - you have me way too excited!

Again, be wary of me reading my own hopeful and biased interpretation of it into this, but you can almost sense the eagerness of the developers – and by extension then, the publisher – to get people to play this game.

Dare I say it, their approach feels almost CDPR-ish with regards to this game.

That’s awesome :)

I mean, if I gave you a riddle that a publisher would make their late-stage beta of their upcoming AAA game free and open to play for a weekend two months before launch…and then they’d repeat that and do it again in the three days leading up to launch…and that they’d be letting streamers play and upload footage of the game in its current state even just a few weeks before that launch…

…how many publishers would you have to name before you got around to UBI?

Who would I name period? LOL.

Yep, Ubi is killing it this year with the quality of their releases.

From Anno 1800’s Steam store page: “Incorporates 3rd-party DRM: Denuvo Anti-tamper

Well, he did say they were killing it.

I’ve literally never been able to tell what games I play have Denuvo and which don’t. Total non-issue for me.
