Howdy all. I am still lurking waiting for the next installment of Emperor Fred. Anyway, do we have any idea when we might see the next expac or perhaps game changing update? How about just plain old wild guesses? Thanks!

A good check will be when Elliot starts posting again.He likes us when he wants our money.

Woot for one WAG for next week, Thanks Ash!

It's ready when it's ready, and I cannot lie. EDIT: Ash is always so optimistic. [:)] Still, "'Pessimist' is what an optimist calls a realist"

End of the year!

AlPhi -> RE: ETA on expac? (6/23/2011 4:58:33 PM)
ETA on EXPAC? Probably not until a while after the forum members have come up with: A final expansion name in the 'What name should the future Distant Worlds expansion be?' thread. The final results of the Poll 'What 8 things would you like to see next in Distant Worlds'. Agreement on the expansion discussion outcomes of 'Faction/Species characteristics/abilities', 'Leaders/Characters' and 'Borders/Territory'. The best mix of creatures from 'DW: Creature Competition Thread'. Just kidding Erik! [;)]

J HG T -> RE: ETA on expac? (6/23/2011 5:19:54 PM)
Everything is relative, Kayoz Anyways, being an optimistic realist I'd say that expansion comes out at some point of Q4 of this year. If we are lucky, late Q3 could be a possibility too.

Data -> RE: ETA on expac? (6/23/2011 7:07:47 PM)
next question, how do we evaluate the quarters? by the calendar? fiscal year? [:)]

martok -> RE: ETA on expac? (6/23/2011 8:59:05 PM)
Given that most expansion packs take at least a year to make -- even for smaller-budge titles like Distant Worlds -- plus the fact that both the original game plus Return of the Shakturi were released in March/April, it's not unreasonable to guess that the second expansion might be out around the same time (late Q1/early Q2 of next year). Anyone who believes the second expansion will be released anytime in 2011 is almost certainly being ridiculously optimistic. (But for those who do believe this, I have some lovely oceanfront property in Arizona I'd like to sell you! [:'(] )

Bingeling -> RE: ETA on expac? (6/23/2011 9:13:53 PM)
One thing is the date of the "launched" sticky for return of the shakturi: 12/16/2010 This is not April 2011 :-) The announce sticky for Distant Worlds: 3/25/2010 This is a 9 month update cycle. It would be rather silly to start a hype for the expansion if it is almost a year to launch, but it would not be the first time someone is silly when it comes to game launches. I think that towards the end of this year is likely. Maybe even with some days to spare.

cookie monster -> RE: ETA on expac? (6/23/2011 9:20:05 PM)
The core of DW is already made, the GUI is complete albeit clunky. How much extra content are they actually gonna pack into the game? Yes I know leaders/borders etc... I'm expecting the add on before the end of the year. In the mean time I'm interested in sunning myself on a beach in Arizona.

MaxyGamer -> RE: ETA on expac? (7/8/2011 11:55:31 AM)
There ain't gonna be another expansion. This is it. You'r playing the best space strategy game on earth. No need no expand it any further. We've got it all. .... We have the best version of the game. The final product. ..... Seriously now. You don't have to stop playing the game knowing that a better version of is it to be released soon. All you have to do is just keep telling yourself that this is it. Nobody is working on this game any longer since they have pretty uch perfected it..... I HATE when an expansion talk starts. Developers drop a hint that we are going to update your game and make it even better and that's it. That kills it for me. I simply CANNOT wait for the expansion! It ...is... too painful cries ....Look...Look.... I... I want me mommy....

Listen, just visit Igard's Cargo Bay, drink some of his vintage Romulan Ale and get a neck rub by one of his 'few' remaining Orion Slave Girls (before they're all stolen) [:D] Everything will be MUCH better!

Yap, just don't think about the expan....arghhh, nooo, not again[sm=Crazy-1271.gif]

[sm=crazy.gif] Wow....beaches in Arizona....lol! So I am booking my vacation: where is the best beach in Arizona? Can I get some Romulan Ale... I can see it now: me on that beach... catching some rays, Romulan Ale, my favorite book... rattle snakes, tarantulas, area 51 (wait that is in Nevada.) Okay guys cut me some slack: we have had so much rain in StL, it would not surprise me if Mexico was flooded out. [:D]

tjhkkr -> RE: ETA on expac? (7/11/2011 11:25:23 PM)
You want the ultimate: I googled Arizona Beaches... http://beaches.uptake.com/arizona.html So today I happily unveil to you a great suggestion: We should have the first ever DW:ROTS Convention there on the wonderful beaches of Flagstaff. Ever wanted to meet the face behind Erik and Elliot, come to the first annual DW:ROTS Convention... [:D]
