Se IV gold

[Richard]

I am just trying to be upfront with you guys.

More than likely we will be around for a long time, but the economy is tough for most game companies now.

I have heard of a lot of layoffs in the gaming industry these Last few months.

That is very true. I hope economy will turn for better but there is change of serious recession in couple of years. Of course I'm not an economist but it feel like that.

Only 'beef' I got is that I just bought SEIV less than a week ago. But hey, such things happen. I bought MOO2 twice 'cause I lost the CD (and found it a few weeks later, go figure). No complaints here, just more of a statement really, had I been just a tad slower hearing of it...oh well

My question is: What will happen to mods?

It seems that we modders will have to make a two-tier mod, for those with and without.

Unless SE4 Classic is forwards compatible with Gold, and we can find a way to balance the game in both modes at once...

Well, the only major major major game balance change would appear to be the Drones.

the problem is there is going to be other changes that will require a second mod, like the secondary shipset names, the new quadrent types, etc..

Yes, or you can just do your mods for the Gold Version and not update your 1.49 compatible mod. You don't do 1.35 or 1.41 compatible mods anymore either.

There are changes to the data files that are going to make it impossible I think to make a one size fits all mod, even if you don't care about the play balance. I am thinking you'd get some errors trying to run the game. I'll have to try that out, but I'm pretty sure it's not gonna work.

I am broke, unemployed now, and on the verge of loosing everything, but I will gladly spend the money to have this GOLD Version.

I have no issues other than having to wait to get it.

Where do I send the check? (Order Page Please)
