Health and Energy - Better than Happiness and Gold

Health and Energy - Better than Happiness and Gold of previous Civ games.

Also, I find it ironic that taking artists along for the ride is perhaps the best cargo for Beyond Earth Civ; afterall, the game is a form of art itself made by artists.

Anyone else?

Health and energy < happiness and gold.

I find the lack of health resources on the map in BE makes exploring for and settling new cities more of a bore. I'de like to see such resources added in, and then make a bigger negative health consequence.

Absolutely free, immediate unit upgrades upon affinity level and the lack of a city states draining your gold makes energy to easy to build up. Rush unit/rush building/buy tile...yawn

Still though both of those <<< happiness/health and gold (civ4)

Sadly on an alien world resorces are more likely to make us unhealthy than healthy

I doubt we have enough information about potentially habitable alien ecosystems to be certain of this.

Either way gameplay > realism in this situation. I just hope this civ 4, 5 and BE trend of over simplifying resources changes.
