Re: DW2 Updated State of the Game and Roadmap (April 2023)



I appreciate the team’s focus on tightening up the game’s existing mechanics before stacking a bunch of new ones on top. Also looking forward to seeing the new factions, but damn it if I’m not the worst for always wanting to role play as humanity basically every game. As such I wouldn’t mind ...

Re: DW2 Updated State of the Game and Roadmap (April 2023)


I really enjoy the game and look forward to future developments. One area which does not seem to have been fully fleshed out and was not mentioned in the roadmap is planetary defense. ATM the only defense that is worth building is the fighter base and that is definitely not working in the beta and ...

Re: DW2-XL v1.8.7 Available



With the introduction of martix's official mod support, are we likely to see a version of this going forward that's compatible with that? I'd love to be able to test your beta patches when they're released, but be able to switch back to the base game without having to delete / revalidate a load ...

Re: 1.0.9.8 Public Beta Update Available


Started a v1098 new game yesterday - went fine until I loaded up this morning and had my first CTD since launch of this game?!.

Some observations:
* Update to 1098 failed to remember config settings and I had to revalidate files via steam (about 14-15 files reported as needing fixing IIRC ...

Re: 1.0.9.8 Public Beta Update Available

Is it safe to assume new games started with the 1.0.9.8 beta will be compatible with the next release version due to be out this coming week? Because I will wait for the official release of not since I don’t have enough time to play, to provide any useful feedback.

P.S. the multiple roles/variants ...

Re: DW2 FAQ/QnA megathread - Ask your question here!

Question: In the ship designer, it prompts me to build out the external ‘visible’ slots first, for defense and sensor modules. THEN fill out the internal slots offer that. I’m playing with the XL mod, so it’s possible that’s a mod feature. But are there any mechanical reasons for doing so? Or is it ...

Is there a mod that adds a sound effect when you pause and unpause?

This is obviously a minor QOL preference, but I like to hear an audible sound when I pause my games.

Re: DW2-XL v1.7.0 Available



Thank you for a very good mod!
I wish Matrix took all of your changes and implemented them. Your tech tree and game balancing is IMHO way better than the current release.
Cudos to you! :D


It's been interesting, for sure. Some of the changes I made initially, I've changed around a few times ...

Re: DW2 FAQ/QnA megathread - Ask your question here!

Hey guys, is there a convenient way to manage multiple classes of ship within the same category? IE multiple concurrent classes of destroyer, frigate, etc.. Perhaps my small automated pirate squashing task forces could have frigates mounting mostly anti ship weaponry, whilst my fleet frigates ...
