Please tell me that this can be modded to zero maintenance! |

Why would you want to do that? 0 maintenance isn't very realistic. It allows you to accumulate substantial military capabilities without paying a dime for them.

Re: Official SE5 release date announced
Q, in playing myself I haven't really felt any extra micromanagement with unit/facility maintenance. But ofc, it is completely moddable.

Re: Official SE5 release date announced
That is good to hear.
Why introduce maintenance for units, if almost everybody is complaining in SE IV that fighters are too weak in later game, dones are almost useless and satellites offer only limited protection for planets. The lack of maintenance was the only real advantage of these units.
If you pay maintenance anyway, why not building only ships??
And if I don't care about one thing in a game like SE it is realism ! It is only the question what makes the game more interesting.

Re: Official SE5 release date announced
Although that is assuming that things have remained the same from SE:IV...  |

Re: Official SE5 release date announced
Ok, so...all the hype for SEV indicates that it is much more 'mod-friendly' than SEIV. My question then is this: those of you who were playtesters, have y'all made mods yet, and is the hype true?
And...who's gonna have the first mod? is there gonna be one right out of the gate?
Just wondering.

Re: Official SE5 release date announced
As you can expect, SJ has a Gritty Galaxy mod of sorts and a few other people have works in progress.
