Mostly it just looks impossible to run.

I always thought that between the hexes and graphics of V, it made for a beautiful game, if not a clever one.

It's hard to make a clever game if they don't even try.

Follow your own opinion, give it a try before you give it a shot. If you do the former before the latter it just means less potential mess to clean up.

It was working until now - I imagine the shots were linked all over creation, and overloaded the server at the host.  If I can track them back down, I will save them this time, and edit the OP w/attachments.

You would have needed to upload it to an image hoster.  I don't see the particular screenshot you had on google images.

I understand these are concept art - looks like the upper must be scout/infantry units

Screencaps from the BE trailer.  I got these from Aeson at poly (http://apolyton.net/showthread.php/205701-Beyond-Earth-Screenshots?p=6313399&viewfull=1#post6313399), who got them from Lord Tiran at CFC (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=524293)...

Click to embiggen - they're huge.

I guess I should have linked you up to LT's screensavers. Infact, the third one already occupies my desktop screen since the beginning of this week. :-\

Buddy my friend, you really should have.  You're browsing the CFC BE, and I can't stand to much (loud douchey moderator notices everywhere give me a rash).  I need help.

PLEASE.

Incidentally, the first shot appears to be flooded Giza w/ future Cairo in the background... But something's happened to the Great Pyramid, which ain't there no more...

Oh, YOU stole the Great Pyramid?

Why launch from the suburbs of  Rio de Janeiro, anyway?  Not even the suburbs, at that.

The same could be said from that launch from Berrys Creek, New York and the Périférie in Paris.

I suppose those are on-purpose; shows how desperate people were in the wake of the Big Mistake.

I saw almost exactly that happen on the forums about a month after Civ5 released...
