MODS?

[BCGaming05]

I love this game but any chance of opening it up to modders it would be awesome to see what people come up with. new boats new fish and other stuff that would benifit the game. but the game is awesome and mods would make it perfect.

I totally agreee. Look at games like Farming simulator or ETS2. These are great games, but what makes them perfect is... they support modding. Without modding and / or DLC you will sooner or later get to a point where earning more money makes no sense, as you can‘t spend it any more. So motivation to play this game drops rapidly. Mods and DLC prevents this.

I hope a Dev sees this discussion and thinks it's a good idea and possible to do. The #1 requested feature is multiplayer/co-op, which the Devs have taken notice of, but unfortunately something like that is hard to impliment once the game has been designed. Multiplayer aspects almost need to be integraded at day 1 otherwise they would need to practically redesign the entire game. As for adding mod support or a steam workshop, I have no idea how much programming effort is required on their part; if that is something that is feasable or something that is completely unrealistic.

As stated in the previous comment, games made by indie companies like Giants Software and SCS Software are INCREDIBLY popular and have an EXTREMELY loyal fan base because of the ability for fans to mod for the games, and essentially create content for the Developer so that they don't have to dedicate time and manpower for player-requested content. I believe this is definately worth looking into by Misc Games.

yes without mod support this game will just be another cash grab in the end. its essential if you want your game to survive for the long haul

We're not talking about right now, it is early they should focus all of their efforts on optimizing and squashing bugs right now and get the game smooth and polished, but then dlc's and modding support would be highly welcomed.

I would just like to point out that Giants Software are not indie devs, they have Focus Interactive as their publisher. SCS Software, however, are indie devs.

It'd be nice if a dev could atleast shed some light on this being a possibility or not
