Did Ed Beach play a role in the development of Civ:BE?

No role that we know of. Considering that civ6 is 5 months away from release, and he even mentions working on some elements for civ6 "for years", he was most likely working on civ6 with a separate team while BE was being developed by Will and Dave.
 
That's good to hear, lol. BE was a disappointment for me, i'd like for Civ VI to be primarily developed by someone else TBH.

I sure hope Civ VI will have the flexibility of Beyond Earth rather than the rigidness of the Civ V strategies. They've hinted at this during the interviews (it's tough to talk openly about the enormous failings of a game that was wildly popular), but I felt that Beyond Earth had the far better potential for competitive play.

I want Civ VI to have the spirit of Beyond Earth and the popularity of Civ V.
