![]() I'll be playing BSG Deadlock for years to come. However I don't think anyone of us could ever convince NBCU. And it would likely also greatly increase the shelf life of the game. I certainly agree, as it is likely to only way I could ever get a Cylon Campaign. And now that they've seemingly concluded their plans for esports and DLC, this game can either die or they can loosen the IP holder's pointless and nonsensical modding prohibition and let it continue breathing. Originally posted by Bomoo:Modding's not "needed" in any game, but it always adds longevity, not to mention fixes design shortcomings. But you won't get anywhere by shouting something similar to: Give me what I want, or you are a doodoohead. Nothing is perfect, and there is no game in the world that everyone loves to play. I know that you are unhappy with no modding, but if you feel uninterested in playing deadlock, then go play something else instead of shouting out into the void that a "dead game" has flaws in your eyes. One mod that steps on the toes of someone like EA and it can be a lot of trouble for the publisher. Just look up how many mods are there for EaW which are not in the SW universe. I know that it can keep a game alive, but if the IP holder wants modding to stop, for example because of legal reasons or because they are plannig a sort of BSG whatever game and are afraid that if there is a free mod out there, it might hurt their bottom line, they will surely not allow modding. Hell, I even participated in modding SW EaW (Thrawn's Revenge mod) in the past. If you don't like playing this game, feel free to play something else. ![]() ![]() Which is unfortunate both for me, as I enjoyed playing deadlock for the most part, and for the developer and IP holder who are not going to get any more money or positive word of mouth out of this one customer. The point is that mods allow everyone to play the game they want, where games that prohibit modding can be played only one way.Īs things stand I'm uninterested in playing deadlock further, or purchasing any of the DLC, if I'm not able to fix several of my sticking points via modding. I've got about the same number of hours in Kerbal Space Program, and I wouldn't have even a tenth as many if I wasn't able to install mods and tweak game files to fix the developers' dopey balancing and questionable design choices. Why play this one and gnash my teeth at the annoyances that spoil my experience when I can fire up any one of a dozen others that don't suffer from the same shortcomings?Īnd if there are imperfections, which is true of most titles, the majority of them allow for modding that will clear those right up. I'm genuinely glad you're satisfied with the vanilla deadlock experience, but for me there are games with fewer imperfections out there. That could lead to another - possibly a better - game than this one. The license holder has recently participated in another BSG TV series. Maybe in time there will be another BSG game on the market to pick up where this one left off. Like I said, I have 1,600 hours in and I'm still finding new ways to play. It's a very complex game which allows a lot of variables - and for me - modding is not primarily "needed" or wanted.
