My impression is that these are really for the larger maps. Where a large number of planets / systems creates a need to defend multiple fronts, while making high-cost units more accessible. Anyway, haven't they already said that you'll be able to buy upgrades to the spacestation piecemeal? weapons upgrades trading upgrades etc? Saving up to purchase the equivalent of a med-size fleet all at once would severely r
You know what would be cool? If Ironclad worked on some functionality to facilitate adding custom races. IE. You could create a mod that just had one extra race (ships, tech tree, etc.) And the game let you add/remove those race mods however you wanted. It wouldn't be as complex as letting us add/remove *any* mod, which I assume has been slow in comming since mods can often affect the same thing and conflict with each other... but for race mods, each
Hey Danman, GREAT JOB! I'm eager to try this mod out. Colonizable stars eh? I wonder what the population caps are? Are you resubbing it to filefront right now? You'd think Stardock/Ironclad would get these things hosted in impulse, so we can rate them, and automatically stay up to date on the latest versions of mods... (hear that Ironclad?)
Hmm.. if you have experience working on mods, and are passionate about so many changes, why not go ahead and implement the changes you suggest? I'm sure wraith would love some help doing the actual work on this thing. Great mod!
great work! I excited to see fans show that they can do basically what Entrenchment will do, but for free! anyway, I wanted to ask. I'm a big fan of the new races you've created, but since they're always changing, being tested, updated, etc. Would it be possible to release a version of this mode with just the original game enhancements? new planets, new graphics, etc. but w/o all the new races? or does something like that already exist?
I recently convinced one of my friends to buy this game, but an interesting issue came up when comparing prices. Buying the game straight from you guys as a direct download costs 40 bucks. Buying the game new from a reseller on amazon.com or even gogamer.com would cost 30-35 bucks. I'm assuming you guys get a bigger cut when we buy from you directly? So please, lower your direct download prices! If I could buy
I just want to say, I *like* this graphical mod. I like it because it's actually unique and different. So many graphical mods here just make things bigger and flashier. From the youtube vid, it looks like you actually put in some thought as to what a certain weapon would look like, and tried to design the weapon effect accordingly in a way that was unique from the original. Love the varying weapon speeds. Good work!
