IIRC, Matrix doesn't do pre-orders. But you'll be able to DL straight to HD the day it releases.

Just wanted to let you know that work is underway on the next expansion for Distant Worlds. We'll have more news for you soon.

When can we expect an official announcement with a features list?

[Haree78]

Typically a feature list wont occur until well in to testing so some time yet to wait.

Good point. I agree. Although people are eager for any news.

I was wondering did they finish the German language localisation of the game as stated here:

tm.asp?m=2777460

Perhaps CodeForce did, as they have moved onto beginning to program another expansion.

[Data]

Even indirect feedback like this would be welcomed....some food for speculation please.

[Webbco]

What?......Still no news? [>:]

@Webbco
I guess we will have to wait ....
@data

a picture is worth a thousand...furballs

agreed !! That cat looks like he seen a giant cat eating water hose or something lol

Erik: 3 weeks since your note, go on.... a teaser at least? Will any game variables be externalised to allow modding? 

[Data]

+1 for the teaser idea....only I have a different one [:D]

[Apheirox]

The silence from Erik is due to the expansion's AI being so advanced it has become self-aware, gone rogue and murdered the entire staff at Matrix Games. Supposedly, we are next.

So, no expansion pack, guys. Sorry.

[cookie monster]

What do you expect?

How can they release an up and coming features list until the the features have been throughly Beta tested?

No publisher is gonna say this is in the game, until they are very sure that the feature is working.

TBH I expect no news until Beta testing is complete.

Is anyone here experienced enough to recall for the forum how DW and ROTS features were announced?

[Igard]

Good point cookie monster. We can beg all we like, but as I recall, we were well into beta testing for RotS expansion and we knew.... Nothing. Not a thing about what to expect.

Only towards the end of beta testing were some testers given permission to post details. I think they were in the form of an AAR and only allowed to show certain things like GUI, fighters, research. Nothing about the story as I recall.

You don't remember Daikatana, do you?

Interesting story. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daikatana

A lesson to be remembered, for sure.

[MaxyGamer]

really looking froward to it.... at the same time though I really didn't want to hear this

Won't be able to play ROTS now. A new expansion is on its way. A better one! With all those tasty improvements and in&out bits that gir.... em..games have...

Will probably be released by August I think. No honeymoon for me then....
