What's going to be in the next update?
I like the modder vs. casual user response in here. Shows how ignorant people can be if they don't educate themselves. Most prolonged gameplay of Sins is usually through mods. With that being said, you're paying 5 bucks for a decent code expansion. We have new toys to play with. Many of the mods will probable require it due to the cheap cost, too. I know mine will once I get done rebuilding it for 1.5 (waiting on TSOP to update).

Any ETA on this? I'm holding out on rebuilding my mod for 1.5 until this gets updated.
[quote who="Cerinier" reply="2" id="3368800"] Quoting XATHOS, reply 1 Do what now? There is a small overview and a whole list of changes in the first post so I do not get the question. But since I have some time actually the main things again: - Titans needs more labs to unlock to decrease their impact on the battlefield, because there is more time to equip a fleet to react - Mines and

[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="23" id="3368299"] I'm no 3D artist and I really can't add any new meshes or corresponding textures...best I can do is recolor existing textures or fix 2D art... I'm not actually aware of anyone tackling the asteroids in a mod...is there even a mod where they have better asteroids? All the mods I've seen just improve the planets...[/quote] Not all the regular and resource asteroids look like shit. I'm not sure
Be nice if this got rid of the low res/ugly asteroids (regular and resource ones), I don't see the need to include them when we already have good looking ones in the set.
Titan's are weird because they merge elements of capital ships and starbases into one file. In SBs, where all you'd need to do would be to change the max upgrade level (I think 10 is the engine max), here, the only thing you can change is the number and specific upgrades. You'd have to do some merging upgrades if you wanted more points to spend on things.

[quote quoting="post"] How does one go about changing the Race Selection Screen to replace the races and allow a 4 one to be included? [/quote] If you have coded before in Sins, it's pretty straight forward, even if you haven't, it's still pretty easy to figure out. Just follow the logical flow. It's broken up by race sections with subsections on the Rebel/Loyalist factions. Most of the race specific entries, that aren't pointing toward portrait

Lulz, original Sins, why bother? [quote who="Vash_AMR" reply="9" id="3360446"] This Game is amazing, and mod is pretty funny and, is "easy", but take some time. I am Mod the TEC effects, i put a nice cannon effects on ankylon (for me), when i finish i will post images and videos, if any like or want the mod, i can uploaded it. I will try to eliminate unused textures, and change Shield protection of a
[quote quoting="post"] I've played a lot with Rebellion 1.1 and while I took a break for a while I just came back and am excited to see the 1.5 patch being actively developed. I just have one concern, and that is the speed of the game in the later stages, especially on the new maps that were included in 1.1 I have heard before that Rebellion is entirely CPU-limited in terms of performance. I have an i7-3610, which while it isn't the best proc out there it is certainly
[quote who="Yarlen" reply="17" id="3357868"] Kalypso Media will be releasing a retail version of Sins: Rebellion in the near future (I don't have a date), beginning in the UK (Steam will still be required).[/quote] Unless you have consumer demand to, why waste money on the production costs for it? You still need Steam to use the damn thing. Doesn't that defeat the point?
[quote who="Timmaigh" reply="11" id="3357807"] Thanks for all your answers. Its not an issue with Steam, i would just prefer gifting him a physical copy. [/quote] Leads back to my comment, unless you're a triple A publisher, or making a console version, why release it physically? I wouldn't call Stardock a indy, but they're not AAA, either. Even being second tier, it's still a waste of money except for special editions. You get more
[quote who="SoulxReaper" reply="23" id="3357763"] Idea isn't new or innovative really. Its been out there and public opinion has been that its not worth the time. We all want our own armies and stuff. Its neat but sadly not demanded. If people really like this idea, there are other games that support it. SC has been mentioned, Rise of Nations is another. I'm not sure how flexible the sins engine is, but while modding it in is impossible, I really doubt that altering t

You assign a a few slider options onto those, and give us control over that in the options preferences before a game session is launched? Mmmmkay?

I love the informed (modders/long time sinners?) vs. ill-informed comments in here. Shows who has the colors. [quote who="JSW_Ballz" reply="74" id="3357324"] I suppose I could complain about copying, but I like Stardock too much. Also, I've missed Sins Plus, and UZI might be kinda pleased to see his old mod resurrected like this. It'll definitely be nice to have people playing it's offspring in MP.

[quote quoting="post"] Hey all. I bought rebellion a few months ago and I've been playing mostly offline with some of my real life friends. I decided to start playing online because I was getting more involved and wanted to play more often. I've now played about 20 games and I've run into a trend that I greatly dislike... It seems like the majority of players online just want a fast, rush style game. Sometimes they are 5v5, 3v3, FFA whatever the

One of my pals is going to finish his university studies next month and i was thinking about buying him the game as a gift at that opportunity...he is not the type to drink, etc.. so i think he would appreciate it more than a bottle of wine or something along that line. Obviously it would be way cooler in a box than directly on Steam. But i guess there is no other option, right? [/quote] Why would Stardoc

[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="59" id="3356558"] $5 for a DLC is a pretty typical price point, I don't think that's too much to ask... The content being offered by the DLC, from what I can tell, includes: 4 new planets...which could potentially include 4 new planet types that would allow modders to do more interesting things with colonization and population techs...sure, mods have had new planets for a long time, but the new planet types (if that's
