Possibility for a space based expansion

from AshesoftheSingularity Forums

I have been wondering with the planned expansions and DLC as a lifetime founder are there any plans to go for a space based component that would tie into the ground game, say you vie for control of the gravity well of a planet and then upon taking launch a ground attack to secure it.  I am a massive fan of Sins and have been crossing my fingers for something new in the space based RTS area.  This engine would seem to be perfect for the type of massive space battles that sins due to engine limitations absolutely grinds to a halt of in big battles.

 

Please, consider your loyal Sins fans in your expansions!

I did searches and noticed similar threads but not that specifically dealt with it as a expansion/dlc possibility, just "oh galactic war will be a board game map, thats kinda like it".  I noticed from your other links that you seem to be aggregating everyone's different attempts to clarify into a mega thread but the whole point in my creating a new topic was to not get lost in a mega thread and ask a specific question on the issue that i felt needed some clarification.

 

Are you a forum moderator? You seem to be just another founder like myself so please restrain yourself to actually usefull comments please and appreciate the fact that sometimes people just want reset the field so there questions can be seen.

Hello viper691 i am a founder just like you, I did read it somewhere in the forums, that the game will not have any kind of gravity well kind of gameplay or space gameplay, this is a ground based RTS ala, TA, COH, so as for now Ashes wont have it, the DLC and expansion will have different kind of maps, more units, map generator and things like that.

And if you want a Sins2 as all of us do too then you should wait for an announcement from Ironclad, i hope they do make it. \o/

 

Edit: Of course anything can change if the Dev's decide to give us this new gameplay in Ashes.
