Steam Workshop

[Nargisoa]

Any Chance This game will go to Steam workshop in the future.....

There is always a chance, but unless they can get a change in the agreement with the copy write holders the answer is no.

Slitherine, you should have NEVER agreed to not allow mods. That KILLS the game. People pass on games without mods because the game grows at a snails pace without user content. Look at your content you've been able to release as a studio for BSG compared to other games that have a workshop. It's pathetic. Even though the game is on sale, I can't justify spending the money on this game considering the paltry content it provides.

Question, did you modify the skirmish mode to allow any kind of scenario with anytype and number of ships vs same? I know your skirmish modes on your other games have been weak, i.e., Sanctus Reach, where you promised to improve it and never did.

Does the game NEED to grow any faster?
The way I see it you pay 40 whatever for your game (and with the constant Steam sales chances are you're not even paying half that), you get your 40 hours of entertainment out of it and then you move on to something else. Nothing wrong with that, not every game needs to gobble up hundreds or thousands of hours of your life.

The game core is perfectly solid. In fact, its better than almost any space tactical game I've ever played. In light of that, it is a damn shame that we can't get mods for the game. The base engine, method of movement, missile types, ect that are diverse and at the same time easy to manage make this game ideal for total overhauls.

Just imagine the system of this game, and apply it to star wars, or star trek, or warhammer, or any other given sci-fi medium. Too bad we won't get to see that...

If the license owners get a percentage of the profits, maybe if they knew that allowing mods would increase sales by a ton, they might do it.

Mods are not needed.

I think they are. It gives the game more options, graphical upgrades, etc. They may not be important to some people, but I think most people would at least like the options.

Given the price many of us paid for the game during sales i feel like ive more then had my monies worth from the game and will continue supporting it by purchasing the dlc as they release it. If the game had major faults or a lack of content then i might want mods but the core game is good value and not buying it because of no mods is causing people to lose out on a lot of fun and entertainment. I like i suspect many bought the game as we are big fans of the BSG universe and to date this is the best way to get into that universe.

I wish everyone would stop asking for a workshop/mods. I would not mind the option, but it is NOT an option!

I just want to add more skyboxes, graphical enhancements (bloom/shading/etc), and planet textures. Nothing that would actually change the base game, just cosmetic.

Some more soundtracks might be nice. While the ones in the game aren't bad, the pseudo-celtic music gets kinda old when used too much.

I really like the music that comes with the game. But, sometimes I listen to the BSG 2004 soundtrack while I'm playing (just turn off the game music).

There is a concert of BSG by Bear McCreary on You Tube.
