Any Mods?

Any Mods for this game? Steam Workshop coming? Thanks

[Jackrabbit_V6/ RSProduxx]

no, and no

[JuntaKyle]

Really hope the devs get some mod tools out, would love to see a "blood and chrome" addon pack with the super OP Galactica version as well. Slight balancing issues right now (miss the overpowerd stuff on my admiral playthrough!), but after those are nipped in the butt there is just so much potential for awesomeness.

def needs steam workshop so the swsome modders out there can make awsome skins and mods for this awsome game

[Jackrabbit_V6/ RSProduxx]

sorry to break it to you, but mods are only a thing if not 90% of the stuff is hardcoded into the game. not all games are really modable, aside from a little config tweaking etc.

And as i understand it, the developers didn´t really create BSGD with mods in mind and thus it might not be easy to "free it up" for modding...

The system they are using can easily be used on any theme, so if they are willing to pay for licensing we could have Star Wars and Star Trek games as well. (Just fix the targeting sectors first)

[Jackrabbit_V6/ RSProduxx]

i would much prefere if they stuck to BSG for a while, the other franchises are well represented already :)

Ya bury the thought of mods for good. The thing is: The devs chose Unity engine. That's one of the most unmodding friendly engines which exist to date.

Why they chose that goes beyond my understanding but Unity is mostly favoured by Indie devs and amateurs. Seeing that they're just a tiny Studio and more appearing like a gang of hobby modders instead some money greedy EA monstrum that don't give a ♥♥♥♥ about their player base I'm afraid we have to life with the limitations they're giving us.


Anyway I'm sure Deadlock has been a big hit on sales. One can only hope that they will switch engines for a potential Deadlock2 after they're done with their dlc milking. UT4 Engine, Frostbite for deadlock2 or any other future product. Those engines can pretty much handle anything from shooters to rts to x4 type of games.

A game without modding support is a short lived game and attracts much less buyers over the duration of months if not years to come.

Agree with this 100%...I would love to purchase this game but Im already in a life time commitment with Paradox's Stellaris and cant afford another game that only improves with DLC.

The only other sci-fi that I'd like to see with this type of gameplay is The Expanse

Heh, if you wait for Stellaris, probably you will have some grand children.. i am at same boat and it looks like an unlimited ocean.. They are making good things here and there but those take years.

I'm not sure it would translate well. It's bit too hard sci-fi for a disguised version of sailing ships.

This game would be great for the honor harrington book series
