Affinities sound pretty cool- maybe the best feature I've seen so far. Reminds me of government type in SotS II which I'm currently playing, where it gradually changes depending on how you play.

It sounds a lot like Alpha Centauri, except this might actually get released as a playable game.

What do you mean, what do I mean? Alpha Centauri was a planetary colonization-themed civ-like game made my Sid Meier, that was kind of like "Civ in Space". On release it was completely and utterly broken, blatantly unfinished software. To me, this is until proven innocent Alpha Centauri 2.

Ive played a fair bit of prelease AC. I have the disc right here. In no way was it unplayable.
And ofc this is AC2. who here is saying otherwise?
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

@AC

-ICS
-1-turn-wonder-rushing
-Crawlers in General
-Almost-Insta-GG-2xHP-reactors/combined with helicopters
-No significant AI

It's broken stuff, in a good sense for that time.

Not sure if it would make the cut with todays standards, though. Especially the AI-part. On the other side, Unit workshop and powerful terraforming is stuff that almost no newer game even tried to tackle and for me, the reason (with fan-patches or mods) to still play AC nowadays...

--------------------------------------

I hope that Beyond Earth plays more like CivIII/IV or even AC than CiV though. Everything was/felt so flat in CiV due to "balance", that kinda sucked all the excitement/life out of that game. It got alot better with patches and the expansions, but I still don't get that "one more turn"-feeling that I got with the older incarnations. So, please, more broken/OP/Imba-stuff like in Civ3 or Civ4 !

I meant "clarify", which you did, so that's good.

I never go the impression that AC was "broken software". I enjoyed the fuck out of that game. I'm sorry you didn't? Honestly Beyond Earth seems like too much of a departure from the original to really satisfy me as a sequel, but it looks like a fun game nonetheless. Maybe it's just nostalgia but I would find it hard to rate anything as better than AC that's before or since come out in the Civ line.

Fair enough. Crawler feeding is indeed op specially in the combination that the AI doesn´t do it.^^

Are you trolling? The original Alpha Centauri was acclaimed upon release. Might have had some bugs as any other piece of software, but claiming it was "blatantly unfinished software" is quite an stretch. It's one thing not liking the game, but really, outright slander with such a sarcastic undertone? Expected more from comments in TL.

That's weird, its the civ game I played the most and I never had any bugs or any problems. I purchased it on release day as well.

Alpha Centurai was good for its time. But people have discovered how to break it and take advantage of the AI. Hopefully Beyond Earth will have the same flavor and similar play-styles, but without the broken parts and a better AI.

Also, they'll need to come up with better names for the factions. Pan-American Cooperative? What sort of terrible name is that? "Altarians" or "Drengin" or "Zerg" are soooooo much better as names.

Imagine calling the zerg: "alien xenomorphs." Geezus.
