I can tell you with 100% conviction... if everyone who has posted in these DW forums buys DW, gets 10 friends to buy DW, and has those 10 friends get 10 friends each to buy DW, then the chances for an expansion pack will be much higher... [:'(]

Putting the cart before the horse, are we?

In any case, as SoM pointed out, the game's sales will likely be the primary determinant in whether or not we see any expansion packs.

Exactly.
I hope that this game will be great and will be commercial succes. Large enough that everybody will look with envy and tell:
WTF!? We can make good 4x space game too and sell it.
And Code Force will tell:
You can make good game but we will make our game better. And they relese expansion and make profit and then sequel and make profit and they relese third part and that part will be lame and everobody will tell:
OMG this part is so bad that is awfull. This is end of 4x space games. Nobody will ever do good game about space. And then few years later some small studio ....
I think that everobody get the picture.
So yeah.

GalCiv is a lame and bad copy of MoO.
I dont understood this all hype over it.
Still if most players dont play in older but better strategy... h.
Ok. I can kinda grasp what happen.
