Lockout Casualty Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2grKk4Fv0k OMG OMG OMG SidMeier’s Civilization: Beyond Earth will propel the development of human civilization beyond the traditional timeline of a Civilization game, by exploring humanity’s future on an alien world. For the first time, players will lead factions divided by contrasting cultures and evolve their new civilizations to reflect their chosen destiny. Players will experience an array of new gameplay possibilities, including nonlinear technological progression, deeper customization of chosen factions, and an entire alien world that will change the very identity of each faction based on their choices. • Seed the Adventure: Players will establish a cultural identity, select a leader and sponsor an expedition by assembling the spacecraft, cargo and colonists through a series of choices that directly impact starting conditions when arriving on the new alien planet. • Alien World: Exploring the benefits and dangers of a new planet filled with dangerous terrain, mystical resources and hostile lifeforms unlike those of Earth, players will build outposts, unearth ancient alien relics, tame new forms of life, develop flourishing cities and establish trade routes to create prosperity for their people. • New Technology Web: Reflecting forward progress in an uncertain future, technology advancement will occur through a series of nonlinear choices that affect the development of mankind. The tech web is organized around three broad themes, each with a distinct victory condition. • New Quest System: Quests are infused with fiction about the planet, and will help guide players through a series of side missions that will aid in the collection of resources, upgrading units, and advancing through the game. • New Orbital Layer: Players will build and deploy advanced military, economic and scientific satellites that provide strategic offensive, defensive and support capabilities from orbit. http://www.gametrailers.com/news-post/73123/sid-meiers-civilization-goes-sci-fi-with-beyond-earth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrChill Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 So.. it's Real Time Strategy? No civ is always turn based. Interesting from the name I assumed it would be Alpha Centari all over again. But this looks cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilduce39 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Haven't played Civ in years (remember playing 1 and 2 with my uncle when I was young!) I do remember Alpha Centauri as well.. it was okay but a bit tedious at times. This new one looks really cool and... ...I think you just inspired me to download Civ 5 - complete edition! :D So long, weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drummer4now Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 meh. This is like another starcraft knockoff but turned based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drummer4now Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 How is this anything remotely like Starcraft? Both of these belong in the realm of science fiction.. may not have similar gameplay, but they look similar in terms of graphics, etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilduce39 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Good choice in getting the complete edition. The expansions add a ton to the game. I'm glad you said that as I was somewhat waffling on cheaping out and just getting the basic version! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VICanucksfan5551 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I'm glad you said that as I was somewhat waffling on cheaping out and just getting the basic version! They add some pretty fundamental gameplay features (religion, international trade, expanded culture components). The vanilla version is incomplete by comparison.

drummer4now Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 That's like saying Civilization 5 is a Madden knock off because they're both set on Earth ... Hows does that analogy make sense? Madden is a sports game and Civ is a strategy game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
