Big update as I widened my search to get help from more communities out there and had some AWESOME responses from people so many thanks to everyone who's contacted me publicly and privately! I'm also starting to look more at newer Civilization games (4-6) and finding some good stuff. Someone pointed out that I should include a The Elder Scrolls (Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim etc) section and gave me several Civ scenarios for it I'd never hea

Have you guys considered a ModDB page? I notice all the other big Sins Reb mod projects ( Star Wars , Star Trek , Stargate , Mass
[quote who="TobiWahn_Kenobi" reply="5278" id="3792413"]done [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] [/quote] Thanks haha. :) BTW I'm guessing the 1.93+ reference means steam users with the current version 1.95 will be fine too? Guess I'll find out soon enough lol.
woah! thank you so much for releasing the mod again!!! :) Look forward to trying it out with my mates at a LAN party and maybe doing a youtube video if its playable enough. First feedback which you can feel free to ignore is I got confused as hell with your downloads layout haha, but eventually figured out that the main download was in the middle of all those new and old updates lol, maybe it shouldn't be towards the middle of all the updates. I'd also recommend reversing the order. M
[quote who="SchismNavigator" reply="1" id="3790134"] We shall see. I am not expecting anything mind blowing like Deus Ex. But hopefully it will be good. [/quote] Yeah nothing beats the original.. I really hope they remake that one day instead of doing all these prequels. Meanwhile it looks like Night City Wire Episode 4 came out a little while back.. [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcWf0pnbfLA[/video] Along with yet ANOTHER delay announcement l
If people are interested in more info I've finally just written a belated steam review with a big list of the game's pros and cons (IMO). https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198058803521/recommended/984680 Also just released some videos covering my thoughts too: Part 1 [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpqP2s6ypys[/video
Thanks, but I think there's been a slight misunderstanding here lol. This thread wasn't about looking for games similar to Civ, it's about looking for mods for actual Civ games. Although I do actually have a separate project where I'm looking for games like Civ and Col and yup I've got those suggested one in my list. :) Yup GalCiv has some great mods under these categories and I already cover a bunch of them on my site. I'm planning a separate Master of Orion legacy website (s
Hey guys :) I’m on the Hunt for big Civilization game series total conversion mods & scenarios with a particular focus on Civ2 & Civ3 (but am now expanding to Civ4, 5, 6 & spinoffs) relating to a whole bunch of my favourite fantasy & scifi movie/TV/gaming franchises. Been posting in a few different Civ forums and getting great feedback, plus whenever someone has told me about an awesome scenario that’s disappeared over the years I’ve managed to track
Sound good mate. I look forward to the next release and trying it with my mates! Are you guys operating out of a new project site these days (eg ModDB)? I noticed the old site's been inactive since 2011.
This guy has done a good review of the Everspace 2 closed beta currently happening. I like how he constantly compares to Freelancer instead of other games haha. He mentioned planet surface stuff but yeah who knows if its gonna be like my beloved Freelancer. [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXARTskUbC0[/video]
Holy moly! I tributed your old project on my B5 games retro website years ago and actually thought the project was dead. Am so happy to see you guys still here working away on it and that it's for Rebellion. Especially as I wasn't a Sins player back then but I am now! Been playing lots of Rebellion mods and doing youtube videos, would LOVE to do a video of yours one for fans like I've done with other
Anyone else excited about Cyberpunk 2077s release soon? Being a retro gamer I don't even have a PC good enough to run the thing haha but nevertheless I've been drooling over all the videos CD Projekt Red have been releasing on youtube lately. Eg just look at the amazing views of the huge city in this one! [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNC6MEA4rQk[/video] Over the last few months they’ve been doing a really good behind the scenes series called &lsq
Some cool news I recently saw.. Starpoint Gemini 3 will be released soon and has added mod support which is good as the game looks super similar to Freelancer (they even added a mini Sirius sector to the game lol) so if there was ever a good candidate engine for a future Freelancer mod it's this game lol. Of course who's gonna have the skill and motivation to do such a thing these days hey, but nevertheless its fun to fantasize about lol. <a href="https://www.mo
If there's any old Freelancer or Wing Commander Privateer fans here, then here's another cool spiritual sequel coming.. Last year was a good year for releases and announcements lol.. first Rebel Galaxy Outlaw, Then Starpoint Gemini 3 and now we've got Everspace 2 ! The sequel is looking even more amazing than the first one did. The whole rogue like randomly generated galaxy put me off playing the last one but it sounds like they're going proper o
[quote who="Publius of NV" reply="6" id="3782862"] Quoting Blake00, reply 5 As expected it’s graphics aren’t exactly revolutionary lol but damn is it addictive and fun to play Agreed. Reminds me of MoO2 more than any other game I've played. I kinda like the retro-graphics, an
[quote who="Publius of NV" reply="4" id="3782650"] Thanks for pointing out that IS:G is on sale. Purchased and downloading now. [/quote] Yeah time was running out on the steam sale and the general response I was getting in most places I asked was either silence or 'never heard of it so I don't know if it's good' haha.. However I watched this dudes let's play series below and that sold it for me.. so I hit the button too lol! As exp
I thought Discovery season 1 was okay but there were many things that annoyed me. Season 2 was a huge improvement for me however that was mainly due to the additional cast members playing Pike, Spock and Number One on the enterprise, there was still some silly stuff (lazy writing plot hole things as usual) that annoyed me though. Season 3 loses those great additions so I fear it'll disappoint me again lol. My love of the Disco season 2 Enterprise content of course also leaves me super excited
Yeah it got funded in the end so I was glad to be wrong lol! Speaking of which I've found yet another love letter to Master of Orion except this one is more MOO2 like! Has anyone here tried Interstellar Space Genesis? If so was it good? Was it stable? Apparently the indie team behind it consists of only 2 people haha! It looks pretty awesome so am thinking about trying it out now that it's finally on sale (it's normally pretty pricey lol). <a href="https://store.steampowered.c
Final Episode 10 rant.. [spoiler]Kinda glad its all over as in these last few weeks it felt like I was just waiting for them to find new ways to disappoint me lol. Now that it's done I don't have to worry about it lol.[/spoiler] [spoiler]So.. that last episode.. once again we've got some good things but mostly things that annoyed me lol..[/spoiler] [spoiler]I enjoyed the Picard noble sacrifice to save Soji (from her fears) scene.. tugged on the old heart
HOWEVER.. despite not posting anywhere anymore after I blew up a bit over Ep5 haha I have kept watching the show though but was less invested in it to continue posting my episode round ups. I said after ep 5 that they'd really need some good eps to undo the damage that did, so... Here's my thoughts on eps 6-9.. [spoiler]They sort of did as Ep6 was really good. I love any story line that deals with Picard's trauma from the Borg, eg some my favourite powerful moments in classic
ahh darn it lol.. I forgot about this thread.. my last post here about about friggin episode 3 aaaaaaagggges lol.. that was back when I liked the show and was defending it against the haters haha.. then episode 5 happened haha.. wowzer lol. These were my original reviews (copied from another forum) way too late but I'm sure some of you that disliked the show from the beginning will enjoy reading my reaction
Episode 3 just seen: (spoiler alert) [spoiler]Not thrilled about how they continue to make Picard look slow, weak & frail. You watch him on talk shows and he zips around just fine lol! But I love the fact that in ep 3 it appears writers are trying to address one of those funny never explained issues from old trek. When I was young it always annoyed me how in TNG supposedly a Borg who got his individuality somehow broke a friggin cube and caused a rebellion on it of sorts when assi
Episode 2 explains some of the mysteries & fan complaints about the first episode: (spoiler alert) [spoiler]A few fans complained about the weird Starfleet HQ 'rooftop cleanup' job & leave Picard on his couch with no questions asked scene jump moment in ep 1 but now we see the Commodore reviewing the battle cleanup footage (questioning it's effectiveness) and discover this fascinating Starfleet conspiracy with secret Romulan sect plot. I remember people in the past getting so
[quote who="SchismNavigator" reply="5" id="3769075"] I need to go back to this soon. [/quote] I think I saw them post some update video on twitter the other day about the latest version having new player ships, missions and new bar activities (slot machines & something else I can't remember) so you'll probably find it in better shape than when you left it haha. Hopefully by the time I get my hands on it (via belated steam release) it'll have even more cool stuff
Forgot to say that as well as posting other peoples wish lists & suggestions I of course also gave them a copy of my own personal wish list below: <div style="min-height: 1.25em; color: #111111; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; f
