More Diverse Diplomatic Behavior

Isn't it rather dull that all factions automatically start off with 0% relation with you, and you are immediately thrust into war? Wouldn't it make more sense to have to declare war first? It would be interesting to see the effect of neutral parties trading with two warring factions; like the War of 1812 from real life history. Perhaps the starting diplomatic relations would vary according to species. Humans would start with, say, 30% towards the player, Vasari with 10%, Advent with 20%.

What does everyone think?

Hi RestlessMind.

Are you talking about vanilla Sins here?  I haven't had a chance to try beta 2 of Sins Diplomacy yet but in beta 1 they already have this feature you talk about.  Different factions start at different relationship levels to you.  You do all start at war with one another effectively but you can be at something like 30% with some other factions based on race with a touch of random.
