Star Trek infinite questions
Will the game be on Xbox Series X?
Will it be like civilization 6? I ask because the description it gives on Microsoft edge says this: Star Trek: Infinite is a 4X grand strategy video game developed by Argentinian studio Nimble Giant Entertainment and published by Paradox Interactive. In Star Trek: Infinite, players take control of one of four Star Trek civilizations interstellar civilization on the galactic stage and are tasked with exploring, colonizing, and engaging minor nations and other major civilizations with diplomacy, trade, or warfare.
When does it come out? On Microsoft edge it says it will release in 2023 and if that’s true we only got a couple days left 😅🤣
The game is already out, has been for a few months. It's on Steam, Windows & Mac only.
The game is built on top of Stellaris, with all of the space empire building that entails. It is sort of in the same vein as Civ, but it's more real time and not turn based, and lets you get more into the small details in some ways than Civ does.
Nice, how does it compare to Armada 3?
I would say it doesn't really compare to any of the Star Trek Armada games. It's more 4x like Master of Orion or Civilization (Or Star Trek: Birth of the Federation for an in-universe game). You start with 4 planets colonised, and a handful of other systems that have resources you can mine, but rather than building research stations where you have to spend resources for techs like Armada, you're cultivating researcher 'pops' (population units) to generate research points that let you pick up technologies. And rather than like a single system you're trying to take over, it's a full galaxy that you're having to spread around with. And you don't just blow up enemy ships. You also spy on the enemies (and your allies sometimes), and conduct diplomacy. And there are plenty of anomalies around to keep your science ships busy doing Star Trek-y stuff.
I’m sad it isn’t on console tbh but I hope everyone on pc enjoys it. Going to go look for a YouTube series on it 😅
The game has already come out, but as far as I know, is only available on Mac and Windows.
Infinite is a real time game, unlike the turn-based nature of Civilization.
I have put thousands of hours into Civ over its various versions. I tried Inifinite out for a few days but it did not click with me. My plan is to wait and give it a bit after some updates and then try again.
