The game's setting is unique to the Civilization series in that it takes place in the future, with mankind traveling through space and founding colonies on extraterrestrial planets after Earth becomes uninhabitable due to an undescribed disaster known as 'the Great Mistake'.An expansion pack, titled, was released on October 9, 2015. Contents.Gameplay Beyond Earth is a turn-based strategy game played on a hexagonal-based grid, iterating the ideas and building upon the engine of its predecessor,. Co-lead designer David McDonough described the relationship between the two games by saying 'The bones of the experience are very much recognisably Civ. The idea of the cities, city-base progression, leaders, the passage of time, tile-based, turn-based, building improvements, technologies. A lot of them are very familiar themes to the Civ player.' Changes from the traditional Civilization formula There are a number of significant changes from the Civilization model.

With the release of Civilization: Beyond Earth expansion Rising Tide, Firaxis finally addresses one of the longest held criticisms of the series, the confusing and difficult to decipher Diplomacy. As in Beyond Earth, Rising Tide puts you in the throne-or council chamber, depending on the leader you choose to be-as you guide your civilization to victory on alien planets in the distant future.

Civilization: Beyond Earth A 'new' feature in Civilization: Beyond Earth is the Quest-system. The 5 main overarching quests of the game are the 5 victory quests. More quests appear throughout the game as your civilization explores and adapts to their new world.

In previous Civilization titles, players selected from historical empires led by historical figures, each with preset personalities. In Beyond Earth, players make choices at the beginning of the game, including what sponsors backed their expedition, what kind of spacecraft they used to reach the planet, and who and what they brought to the new world, allowing players to create a customized civilization of their own. Early decisions have a significant effect on the gameplay. While previous Civilization titles have had linear tech trees, Beyond Earth has a 'tech web' which branches off in several directions, forcing players to choose only one at a time. The game intentionally does not allow for technology trading between civilizations (though it can be stolen), and it is difficult to unlock all of the game's technologies in a single playthrough.The 'affinities' are overarching philosophies on human advancement that shape players' technological advancement and unlock affinity-unique units. The Harmony affinity aims to co-exist with the planet, utilizing, and is able to domesticate the native wildlife. The Supremacy affinity puts its trust in advanced technology, and utilizes highly specialized units that aid each other on the field.

The Purity affinity is isolationist, building powerful defensive structures and attempting to make the new planet more Earth-like. Each affinity has a special project that is unlocked once fully embraced, and grants victory to the player who completes it first.

Other victory conditions include conquering the other factions by force and following the traces of an alien civilization in order to ultimately establish contact.A quest system has been added to the basic civilization formula to further differentiate this game. Quests can come from the construction of buildings or the discovery of certain items. Many quests give the player a choice on what perks they want.Aliens are more than just the 'barbarians' of a traditional civilization game. They tend to be in much greater numbers and can put up a much bigger fight in the beginning of the game.

Should the player choose to provoke them, aliens tend to be more aggressive, and may openly attack the player's lands.An orbital layer has been added to Beyond Earth. Satellites launched around a faction's orbital layer provide bonuses to the tiles below them.

For example, if a player launches a solar collector, any tile below this collector will provide the player with an additional energy bonus. In the later game, some satellites can serve as weaponry or can help transport units across the map.

To counter orbital units artillery style units can shoot them down.Additionally, many of the later game technologies that were present in previous Civilization titles are now available very early in the game, or, as some developers put it during a YouTube game/interview, players are not 'reinventing the wheel'.
