Starbase Orion 2 Megathread
Alright, I'll get this out of the way: Starbase Orion (an iOS only MoO2 successor) remains probably my favorite space 4X game. It's just really well designed through and though.

Starbase Orion 2 has long been in the works from creator Rocco Bowling - although not much information has been released. Well, turns out he has been releasing updates and teasers over in a reddit forum:

https://www.reddit.com/r/starbaseorion/

If you scroll down to page 2 you'll see some posts from beatthebrush (the developer) showing images and WIP's for the new UI and other features.

Starbase Orion 2 is, I believe, planned to be cross-platform (iOS, Android, and Windows)

For those curious to learn more about Starbase Orion and developer, check out our prior coverage here:

It will be a out around the same time as Lords of Rigel.

Do you have M.O.R.E. jokes like this?

That's a deep cut!!!
I didn't want to laugh at those, but I did.

I might have a mandate too.
Hello! I'm the developer of Starbase Orion.

Stumbled onto this thread yesterday; happy to give you a quick update.

What you may know as "Starbase Orion 2" has been shelved in favor of "Starbase Orion 10 Year Anniversary Edition" (or "SO10" for short). The targeted release date is Oct 2021 (the official 10 year anniversary of initial release), and I anticipate early access / beta testing to begin in the next few months.

Not going to share too many details now, but I can confirm that SO10 will run on a multitude of platforms and will not be solely iOS.

Welcome to the boards, both of my kids are huge fans of the iOS games.
I would pick it up on the PC.What has been updated for this edition.
I would pick it up on PC as well. Looking forward to seeing more about this, thanks for stopping by!
This is awesome news! Curious what/how it will be enhanced.

I think SO was the game that got me back into 4X way back when the game was released. I still maintain it's one of the more cleverly designed 4X games in recent memory.
This is some excellent news. Look forward to get this for my android phone/tablet (and hopefully a pc version as well).

Awesome!

Where can we follow for more details? www.starbaseorion.com has SSL certificate issue and even when I dismiss it, I'm greeted with nothing but sign in options which is super weird.

Thanks for the kind words all :)

Right now everything is being kept very low key, at least until alpha/beta. I've dropped tidbits on the Orion League Discord ( https://discord.gg/5WMGwUyY ). I promise I will drop a line here when more info is officially available.

I really want the existing SO1 veterans to have a chance to drive SO10 development and balance changes, etc, so a complete list of "what has/will be changed" cannot be given at this time.

I can reveal that it is being rebuilt from scratch. It is not being built in Unity. The graphics will be very SO1-like, no 3D like you might have seen in the SO2 leaks. The UI is completely rewritten and responsive (ie should scale well on different screen sizes). Like SO2, it will include combat simulator, empire designer and ship designers which are available from the main menu (ie you can share ship designs between multiple active games). It will include a "SOPedia" feature which the community will be able to help drive the content for (solving the problem of lots of good information / strategy guides hiding in old forums and not being a first class citizen in the app).

Ah! If you wouldn't mind, could you send me a screenshot of the SSL error you saw (assuming you can still see it)? You can email it to rocco (at) chimerasw.com Never mind on this, I see the issue now.

www.starbaseorion.com is not a marketing site, it's the current development server for the SO10 backend. When alpha/beta happens, this is where those invited to the alpha/beta will go to get the game.

Thank you so much for dropping by and posting the update. Sounds great and I look forward to learning more about (and eventually playing) the new version. Best of success developing it. I'm sure you'll find a ready and eager crowd here, if you ever need testers.

My blue sky goal for the next game is to take the revolution that Defense of the Ancients (DOTA) brought to RTS games
Sigh, he just has to release the first game.
