This is a good rule of thumb unless you want to be abutted by enemy factions just two or three systems away which to me really nerfs the early game experience-and if they are not friendly, this can be very unpleasant especially for a noobie. It can be a pain for your galaxy to be overly-saturated with AI factions. If you are particularly new you may want to stack this a bit depending on the strength of your faction's strengths, and you may also want to disable some of the more early-aggressor AI factions like the Cravers and Vodyani altogether to give you more bandwidth to learn and expriment.įor a normal size galaxy I would not recommend more than 6-7 AI players. Spend some time considering how you want to play the game and under what conditions. The game gives lot's of options for galaxy type and size, density, and win conditions so be sure to familiarize yourself with them. Give this game some patience, learn the finer points, holdfast for those silly bugs to get fixed up, and you are in for a truly deep and exceptional strategy gaming experience.Ĭhoosing game parameters that will suit your playstyle is important to ensuring your experience will be enjoyable and match your preferences.
#Endless space 2 tips and strategy manual
I recommend reviewing the very excellent manual provided by Amplitude to get acclimated with important basics before delving too deeply here or in the game, link provided below (and a big THANK YOU to the developers for providing this fine resource which is a welcome rarity these days): If you are new, the learning curve can be relatively steep. This guide is intended to provide some insight into basic game concepts for someone not necessarily new to 4x, but to the Endless Space universe. You can explore a new and beautifully generated galaxy each time you play.

This game combines the very best features of your favorite 4x games and spices them up with interesting immersive events, factions, and playstyle options. Endless Space 2 is a truly unique and beautiful take on the 4x genre.
