The Eden Initiative, also known as the Ecos, is a federation of environmentalist activist groups, refugee resettlement programs, and private firms invested in sustainable industry and biotechnology. I'll explain these more in detail later, but in brief: Completing all three is the goal of this LP.Īnd finally, there's the choice of two starting factions. There are three different factions you can build your city from in the game, and each has a big, fancy monument at the peak of their development line. I've set this to building all three monuments. The other features here, I'll explain as they come up, but in short this is going to give us a comfortable cushion to start the game with, and start with the whole map revealed for us.įinally, we have victory conditions. However, I discovered that monkeying with Ark Storage in one game affects all active files where I have Ark Storage on, so I've had to turn it off. The weird one here is 'Ark Storage.' Anno 2070 has what's kind of a New Game + feature where you can bring forward bonuses from one game to the next, and I had initially planned to use this feature. These are my favored starting conditions. In the lower right, you can also see that I've set the map size to large. The Game World settings, I'm leaving on default for Easy. However, there are more game settings to tweak. I'll get into more detail about them later. They will not build cities, they will not go anywhere. This configuration, however, makes all AI presences on the map completely passive. Note the reminder that I'm playing with the Deep Sea expansion - if you only get the base game, well, I have never played Anno 2070 without Deep Sea so I have no idea what the base game is like!įor a first-time player I strongly recommend this as the setup for 'Third Parties' - AI presences on the map. I'm starting with the Easy map as a baseline, but I'm going to tweak some settings under the Game Settings button on the right hand side of the screen. If you're brand new to Anno 2070, one of the first questions you may ask is: where is the button to start a new regular game? Start with the Mission Map at the top of the buttons on the lower left side of the screen.įrom here, you want 'Continuous Game' in the top left.

As such, feedback from series vets is welcome, but I'm not going to min-max everything. I also make no claim to play things as efficiently as possible! I've built a successful city in this game once before, and I hope to do so again. It's how I prefer to play, and this is an extremely dense game in terms of mechanics so I hope I can break things down bit by bit to show people who have never played an Anno game how it all works. To this end, I will be playing the game in its sandbox mode, rather than campaign or any scenarios, and will be playing the game as easy and relaxed as I can.

Fortunately, it's a good one, and is widely credited with turning a mediocre base game into one of the golden entries in the Anno franchise. I will also be playing Anno 2070 with the Deep Ocean expansion pack, the game's one big expansion. 2070 is generally regarded by series fans as one of the better entries in the series, and I personally prefer the sci-fi setting over the historical settings of most of the rest of the series. While there's quite a few games in the Anno series, most of them historical in setting, I will be playing Anno 2070.

It is my hope to break things down for people who have no idea what Anno is, and walk you through building a beautiful (or at least functional) city. Anno games have a well earned reputation for being beautiful, engrossing, and completely opaque and frustrating to new players. Where the Anno games differ from more traditional city-builders like SimCity and Cities: Skylines is in the Anno series' focus on trade and logistics, rather than on urban planning or development. Anno, sometimes called Anno Domini, is a long-running series of city-builders produced by a German company.
