Sins of a Solar Empire Expansion Plans

[Apr 02, 2008, 8:57 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Wired.com announces they've learned of plans for a Sins of a Solar Empire expansion, straight from the horse's mouth, the horse in this case being Stardock's Brad Wardell. There aren't many details, basically they've learned it's due "in the reasonably near future" and will offer user-requested features like a full campaign mode and new playable factions. They also say the version 1.04 patch for Sins is due within days and a more broad-reaching version 1.1 patch is not far behind that.

Good points

Good points, but now that they have a game out, expand on it. I would like to see the ability for up to 8 online players at once. Right now there is a max of 3? Or am I missing something? Better ships, higher detail. Ships that move in combat WITH the ability to dodge and miss as well as collide. Some randomness too. Could you imagine Star Wars or Star Trek where the ships pointed and fire, but never moved? That would be stupid. They should at least look like they are trying to survive, add some randomness and miss calcs in there. Random elements like rogue asteroid storms that could randomly appear and come across the solar system, destroying ships, facilities, damaging planets. These should be very rare and random. Could have comets too or organic creatures. Just some ideas.
