Mods!

[˗ˏˋKAIDONˎˊ˗]

You guys said that mod support is possible, though you didn't provide any confirmation if it'll be there. Well, I hope you guys will! I'm craving for a Halo mod already... I know that Halo Wars 2 will be released on Windows 10, but still! A Command & Conquer mod would be nice too, since we haven't had any more of it after EA killed the series with Tiberium Twilight.

...inb4 replies (or no replies at all) about why don't I make those unlikely mods myself...

Well, I haven't read that one yet so yeah.. But now that I think about it, I think Dune's got the most appropriate setting :D

As one who's only knowledge of DUNE comes from the 80's movie, I'll pass. That movie sucked so hard I've repressed almost all of it except large worms and a fat guy with an anti-gravity belt flying around in a circle.

Still, the idea of having a massive worms roaming around beneath the sand sounds exhilarating. Suddenly appearing out of nowhere, only to wreak havoc upon your forces. There aren't many RTS games that implements features such as random forces of nature like that. The only ones that comes to mind are Elements of War and Etherium ... and both game sucked. Just imagine marching your army to invade the enemy's base only to be decimated by a gigantic worm that just happened to surface in front of your units!

Here's what was said today on the new BBI forums by a dev regarding modding:

"We'll do what we can to provide technical guidance when the time comes. I should admit up front that unfortunately we haven't had the time to create dedicated modding tools and systems that will work out of the box, so expect to roll up your sleeves and prepare to get dirty."

That'll complicate things... But thanks anyway!

there is already a halo mod in development basically [halo homefront] so you dont have to worry about that

[Sammi79]

As long as the relevant data files are left open then mod tools don't really matter. Just means more to learn and ultimately a better understanding of what's going on.

I am aware of that mod's existence, I've followed it closely for about a year or so until the remastered collection came out.

Yessssssssssssss.

Star Wars mod?

[Biomechannibal]

STAR WARS Battle of Hoth & Mad Max. Easily the first two that came to my mind.

Mod tools will come apparently if there's support from the community.

This is very out of topic but... That worm probably would be interested in your picture. Lol.

[Sovereign246]

Very good news. I hope there are mods that add the other kiths as playable factions.
