Co-lead designer David McDonough described the relationship between the two games by saying 'The bones of the experience are very much recognisably Civ. Stay away from this tittle, developers somehow managed to copy civ5 mechanics and create an uninteresting game to play.Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth sends players on an expedition from Earth to lead their people into a new frontier to explore and colonize an alien planet, and create a new civilization.īeyond Earth is a turn-based strategy game played on a hexagonal-based grid, iterating the ideas and building upon the engine of its predecessor, Civilization V. It makes you wonder if there will be any normal AI opponents in next civilization installment or only asymmetrical enemies like aliens in this game. The funny thing is that devs didn't invest any resources in AI development instead they brought aliens as a nation which has unlimited resources and units to compete with player. It can be somewhat compensated by huge bonuses on high difficulties, but it's never fun to play asymmetrical game. As in Civ 5, AI is just plainly stupid, non competitive. After some initial challenge with aliens you just stop caring, and pray for game to end, or just stop playing. I have 6 cities, should i build another one? Nah more micro every turn, besides it doesn't matter, because with every city techs cost more, also virtues cost more. Another turn oh i guess i'll build another +1 food building with generic name, oh i guess i agree to new worthless diplomatic treaty. The gameplay is slightly improved with this expansion, but remains generic, boring, without sense of progression, and devoid of any attachment to the colony or you neighbors. The gameplay is slightly improved with this expansion, but Do not trust the reviews, it's mediocre 4x game, with unbelievably bad AI.
