Just a quick note...

[Erik Rutins]

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.

Regards,

- Erik

Ooh nice surprise.... Cant wait for word

[shinobu]

Looking forward to it! (Keeping fingers crossed for diplomacy improvements...)

[Data]

Soon....sooooon
Expansion......expansiooooon.
Sry, this is the closest to reasonable I could get.

[Sithuk]

Thanks for the update Erik, please place a strong focus on externalising as much of the internal game data as possible. There is significant untapped potential on the net to playtest and tweak that is currently not being used. Please give the modding community something substantial to work with.

[J HG T]

YES!

Hopefully news soon means soon this time.

Is a month not soon?[;)]

[Igard]

Great news. Can't wait to hear more.

Erik, any small scraps of info would be great. No need to collate all the new features into one big info dump.[;)]

[Shuul]

Oh boy...
The only I can say is:

Наконецто блеать!!!

[Data]

Not sure what you've just said (to laizy to google it) but I'll risk agreeing with you [:D]

[Shuul]

Very ROUGH translation:

Data, you can safely agree!

Блеать давайте, ребята!!!

[nammafia]

Thanks. Good to hear. Waiting for info and saving $ for expansion.

[Astax]

I am waiting to see what's coming. My most requested feature would be some sort of minidump log capture/send report feature so we can knock out a lot of stability issues. 

[wolf14455]

Good to hear. Keep up the good work.

[tjhkkr]

Thank you very much. (:

I take exception to the word soon. It's so non-committal. Soon, the sun will swell up and devour the Earth....from an astronomical perspective. From a gamer's point of view soon might as well be 20 years and five failed marriages later.

[Shuul]

At least we know that something is going on behind the scene.

Erik, are there some details on next update, its really annoying to wait for something and don't know what for exactly.

[Data]

I personally enjoy surprises but obviously they can't satisfy all of us [:)]
