Status: offline 		According to Erik Rutins CodeForce have begun work on a new expansion for Distant Worlds.

I was wondering what the name would be.

Personally I am not fond of long barrelled names such as :-

Distant Worlds Return of the Shakturi,
Armada 2526 Supernova
Sins of a Solar Empire
War in the Pacific Admirals Edition
The Operational Art of War

etc etc

Look at the movies, most sequels were numbered

Police Academy 1 - 5plus
Beverley Hills Cop 1,2 etc
and so on

The various Star Trek's were simply named

Star Trek (Original)
Next Generation
Voyager
and so on

Now don't pick my general knowledge apart, as I'm not a film/space sci-fi geek.

So what would you dear forum poster and lurkers like for a name for the future expansion?

Even though I made this post, I have no name ideas myself. It might be difficult to have DW3 now that DWROTS was the sequels name.

Perhaps if there are enough good names posted into this thread, the forums "King of the Polls" Igard could make a poll. Not that I'm demanding it!

Or maybe I'm being too optimistic...

Anyway, anybody got a good name for the future expansion?

Millions in Royalties goes to the Winner... Not!

Points to ancient techs and information before the first shakturi conflict that are now being found and researched.

- Distant Worlds: Keepers/Protectors of balance.
Just from top of my head.

Distant Worlds: Times of Progression.
New techs, stuff and all that.

Nice thread idea BTW. Interesting to see what others come up.

Good one!

Distant Worlds : Tech Wars (oh wait, Shatner already used that name)

A new technology race is upon us, with empires now protecting their secrets with great care. Trade in tech is now almost unheard of. Who will win the race to develop the powerful new Tractor Beam Device? Who will design the galaxies first Beam Array? Who will have the scientific knowledge to cloak their vessels not only from radar detection, but from plain sight?

And who will have the courage to undertake the most ambitious and dangerous project of all, to build a giant Kaltor farm and capture the beasties and harness their power for the glory of the empire!

Status: offline 		well heres one I just thought of ,
Distant worlds : attack of the dominators LOL
I'm ofcourse thinking about space rangers at the moment so had to drop that one in.
the story line would ofcourse be that after taking over the galaxy where space rangers live that they have managed to cross over in the distant worlds universe and are looking for some extra space ;)
--edit--
Although not likely to happen I think it would be really cool !

If some of these would be made the Universe would probably collapse 'cause of too much awesomeness existing on this plane of reality.

Sorry for slight off-topic BTW.

Once again, sorry for off-topic, but I need clarification to something.

I'm honestly bit lost on what you are referring there DATA. But if it has something to do with certain picture I posted to show my excitement for news about the next expansion, it was purely random pic meant to show that I was happy to hear the expansion was in works. Nothing more, nothing less.

As a side note: I'm pretty damn angry at the moment of writing this 'cause I seem to have lost my original Deus Ex CD. So, deepest apologies to everybody for anything I have done to scar your mental stability recently.
I am sorry.
