Civilization: Beyond Earth

I feel ripped off. I was so excited, but eventually let down after playing. This game is Civ5 with an alien planet skin. I thought there would be multiple types of planets with different resources, but no. It's all the same basic map variations from Civ5, broken up into three basic types and land size areas. I expected more ART. Building a wonder no longer shows a brilliant art piece, instead it shows a dinky gray-scale model. The fun, intrigue, inspiration, and excitement is gone. Not worth 50$ at all. Once again just like Civ5 the multi-player is even worse, non-stop crashing, and people getting booted from the game. And all this boils down to, a poorly made mod, for a five year old title. A step down from what the next Civ title should have been. Big Big BIG Disappointment. And I LOVE Sci-Fi. 2/10

The year is 2600! Nothing remains of the world as we knew it. Nothing remains in the name of happiness. Our joy of living has vanished. Nature had declared war on humanity. The seasons disappeared. Civilizations were destroyed. Nations collapsed. All because of a single mistake, the balance of the world had been thrown into chaos. Our planet teetered on the brink of destruction. The time of the apocalypse was near. Wars on Earth had even ceased. Due to all those war technologies-nuclear weapons, biological and chemical gases-Earth had become uninhabitable. The struggle for survival began. Humanity was aware of the situation. Earth needed to be abandoned immediately, and the search for a new world had to begin-new colonies, new civilizations, and a new order had to be established. Communities reached an agreement. Sponsors took control of the situation. The search for a new form of life in other galaxies began. Everything was about to start anew.

After long years of research, a breakthrough was finally made. A new galaxy had been discovered billions of light-years away from our world. Our new planet had been found. Communities then sent a group of people on an interstellar journey-but they left millions behind. Once they found a new form of life, they would contact Earth. They would send a signal. Unfortunately, when the signal finally reached Earth, no living beings remained on our planet.

Thus began Beyond Earth. Now, with Rising Tide, let's take a closer look at humanity adapting to our new world. Or should I call them Aliens?
