Expansion Pack. Poll Yes/No/Comments

mac5732 · #1 April 13th, 2001, 07:27 PM

With all the good ideas on the threads, If we let MM know that we are willing to pay for an expansion pack with the major ones incorporated then maybe they would take the time and effort to create one. Otherwise its not financially possible for them to spend the time and effort other then just putting out patches for fixes. Therefore Please let everyone know how you feel.
Some of the additons could be, Pirate Race,
Civil War, New Names & Races, Names for 255 plantets, Ideas from the Mods like 1.70, Rage, and the rest, and so on. What do you think?

1. would you like to see an expansion pak
2. would you be willing to pay for the pak
3. would you like to see the ideas in this thread added as optional's
4. Which ideas do you like or would like to see in the pak the most

Just some ideas Mac

I would pay for an expansion pack. To expect MM to continue to re-design the game to add new idea for free isn't right. Hopefully they will continue improving the existing items and add items.

I wouldn't mind paying for an expansion pack as long as it wasn't too expensive. I would like to see exended tech trees, improved AI, maybe some extra races - things like that.

Perhaps Aaron can have some of the SE IV send different races and mods and choose the best of the best for the expansion pack?

I would pay for anything that can't be done by modding the existing game ourselves. But many of the features you listed are here free on the forum, so that would not be a reasonable expansion pack to pay for IMO.

I have already sent MM a note saying many of us would gladly pay for an expansion pack. I would be willing to pay just about anything reasonable for more features and races, get the civil war in there and some pirates. That would be a great expansion. ne thing I would really like to see though, which not many other people seem to concur with is the ability to play with more than 20 races at a time. Why 20? Why can't there be an unlimited number?

I would pay for an expansion pack as well.

Not only would I be willing to pay for an expansion pack... but I'd be willing to pay in advance... Let MM move this board to their site, charge a $20 - $25 fee to use it, and use that money to finance these patches.... but MM should give those that pay preference over adding new features... If MM sees that lots of people HAVE paid for new upgrades, they might even hire an additional programmer!

As for what features? The two recent ones were Civil War and Racial Feuds. But I also like all of my ideas too

I would also,and I agree the pac needs to be something NOT done in the mods I for one have some in my game and find that it incresses the enjoyment that I get from it.
There could be a pac for more tech areas and different weapons.
