Re: SE:V Poll
I want the game released ASAP, because I'm enjoying it enough in its current state that if it was out I'd probably never play SEIV again. I just want it fully unlocked.
I'm 100% sure that Aaron will continue to support it with patches and/or expansions until at least whenever SEVI comes out.
I'm also 100% sure that we'll soon see the equivalent of the TDM modpack (which is pretty much the starting point for my "house rules" mod anyway).
I honestly don't care about the graphics, and the UI may not be perfect but I'm still having fun...
I think the new combat system is highly superior to SEIV because it eliminates the gaminess of a square grid and "floats" (no corners in space).
I think the "fog of war" on the system map is a great improvement to the operational level, and if the system size really can be modded to be significantly larger then there is a potential for a real search phase of naval battles (with an important role for fast cheap recon units, etc..).
I could go on, but in general the changes to the meat of the game (not graphics or UI) are mostly improvements. It will get better, as SEIV did for 6 years, but I'd rather play it than SEIV now. That's why if I could pop out to Gamestop tonight & bring it home, I would.
