My main problem with SD2 is that there's only one way to win the game. I hope the addon will bring in something else and i have to say the features look nice.

I've just watched two gameplays of Master of Orion IV and i really like most of what i've seen....i am really getting excited for friday.

Dear Zero/Zero's minion:

Please use your only two posts on this forum to spam your game in its own thread.

Wow what a warm welcome I get for finally deciding to register to this forum. Big mistake I guess. You can find me on the Matrix games forum with 3000 posts. And yeah I like the game. I appreciate what this one guy has created and I really like his ideas for the expansion. Take whatever is shoved up your butt out and light a match. Or actually offer something constructive.

1) My apologies for assuming you are someone you say you are not.  You have to agree that coming on to a forum, in a competing game's thread, and making your first 2 posts ever in a very fanboism tone is a bit suspicious.
2) Whatever gaseous release I light, as you suggested above, I invite you to inhale and choke on it.  There's your warm welcome.

More on topic, does anyone know what comes with the "Deluxe" version?  Nothing on the Steam page.  Also, if the combat in the trailer is similar to BotF, who wouldn't love something like that but with spiffier graphics?

That is enough from both of you. Keep the thread on topic. I don't want to see another word that could be construed as a personal insult from either of you.

Tanaka...I think it is a good idea to maybe create a separate thread to discuss StarDrive.

Tanaka,

   There is a thread already for Star Drive 2.  Hasn't had any activity for awhile, but you might want to copy your one post over to there.

You get at least one additional race...the human Khanat which looks cool.

If the gameplay is similar to MOO2, then I won't complain.

Combat in the MOO-reboot is real-time.  It's not like in BOTF.

Well, as per now, i find the combats underwehlming. It looks as the battles in BOTF have more tactics. I hope it's going to change.

In the new expansion he has implemented a technology victory path that any player can potentially achieve. This will give the Good AI archetypes a path towards victory that doesn't require them to either kill you or wait to be killed by you. The story-based path to victory will involve mastering this new galaxy's specific threats.

Sorry guys as I just joined I did not realized it was not allowed to discuss other games in a post about a specific game nor to be a fan of any specific game. Will avoid next time. No desire to start another thread on Stardrive 2 as I am not really that big of a fan just looking more forward to the SD2 Expansion than MOO and wanted to offer why.

Thanks. However, I have financed Stardrive and bougth Stardrive 2 when it was released so i am very well aware of what he's been doing (and it's great for one guy). I've been following this since the start but i still wait for something that makes me want to play the game. In MOO, i always go for diplomatic victory and in Horizon i can go for the two story quests that lead me to victory. I hope the new victory conditions in Stardrive 2 will finally make me play it.
