Re: Expansion Pack Time
One problem is a lot of the shipsets out there are derivative and use material that is copyrighted and belongs to someone else. It's one thing to make fair use of this and modify it for yourself and offer it for download free to others, it's quite another to put it on a CD and start charging for it. But an expansion pack with 40 - 50 of the better quality, and more original, shipssets out there would be a fantastic idea.

Re: Expansion Pack Time
Please do not forget to vote on the Pole as well.
The great thing is that if Malfador decided to do an expansion pack for sale, it would hopefully be a good boost to the development process for SE V.
About what Se5a said, hey I sypathize. But this is an issue that Shrapnel must address and hopefully over come.

Re: Expansion Pack Time
i voted for 'i don't know yet'. it would depend on what's in it, how much it would cost and wether or not it would delay se5 and by how much.
and personally, i don't count things i can download of the internet for free, like shipsets, as content.

Re: Expansion Pack Time
Keep in mind that if MM makes an expansion pack for SEIV, it will delay the release of SEV.

May be may be not. Consider that anything used in the expansion pack could in turn be used for SE V.
Only Malfador really would know the answer to this concern.

Re: Expansion Pack Time
There is no maybe about it. If MM spends time working on SE4 Expansion, SE5 will be delayed. MM is only one person, after all. He can not work on two things at once. Some things from SF will possibly used in SE5. But, the making of SE5 has still been delayed tremendously because of SF's production. Not everything in SF (most of it, in fact) can be used for SE5. Same with a SE4 expansion.
