Coming in October. Pretty pumped for this since the only games I still play are Madden, Civ, and NBA2K. Even though Civ Beyond Earth kinda sucked, I have high hopes for this one.

Beyond Earth was awful.

I got Civ5 on release, but the vanilla game didn't really impress me, and I had little time to learn the new stuff. I was also still heavily playing modded versions of Civ 4. Last year I grabbed all the new expansions for 5, and it's a much better game. I saw the entire bundle Civ 5 Complete bundle last week for like $13 on Steam.

I've been watching a bunch of the dev videos. It looks fantastic. The art seemed a bit CivRev ish but it actually looks good on the map itself. I was a bit nervous after BE but this one looks like a definite pre-order so I can unlock the Aztecs from the outset

Still have Civ 3 on my PC and still play it. The best ever!

Cannot wait for this

I've played every Civ ever made, but the exclusion of Reagan is really starting to make me debate continuing.

Gorgeous. I personally love the artstyle, aside from a few of the leaders look a bit cartoonish.

Any recommends for a turn based space themed strategy pc game?

I will have to look at it. Been years since I bought anything new.

Don't get Beyond Earth. It's a garbage game. Not sure about those other two IMU mentioned.

They are popular on very Steam.... haven't played them personally.

BE is bad. really bad. Alpha Centauri was awesome, but it's like 20 years old.

Showing my age I started out in this area playing a Sierra game called Outpost.

Beyond Earth isn't really a space game. It's still a planet builder, but with a space theme. I assume you want something that you build starfleets, colonize worlds, etc. I'll ask some gamer buddies.

Cool I used to like that game a lot. Earth is gone you and a supplied ship recolonize and all that. Not so much into the having to war with others really.

You know what is entertaining about streamers?

Nothing.

Well it's nice to see your posting style hasn't changed.

Generally this is true, but in an unreleased game where we know little about certain mechanics, it can help folks decide if they want to get the game on day 1, or possibly wait for a steam sale or the bugfixes to be worked out. Marbozir is also a deity-level gamer, unlike some of the streamers who appear to have never played any 4x type games in the past.
I have learned tons of tactics just watching his gameplay videos. I've bought many a game, and decided not to play others based upon some of his longplay videos.

To each their own.
