X4 foundations Bonus Package of signed scripts?

Post by palm911 »

Dear Egosoft, any chance that something like this could see the light for Foundations?

there are so many great ideas and work here, that i believe could improve the game without breaking intended balance?

do hope to hear that something like this could be planned in the near future.

thanks

I think, one the second DLC is out and the game is being updated less frequently, having a pack of signed scripts would be a great idea. It worked well in prior games. It does involve a not insignificant amount of dev time though, even with an existing script, as it needs to be tweaked and rebalanced to fit into the core vision of the game.

I use VRO, likely my favourite mod, but I doubt it would ever be signed due to the significant changes it makes to balance. I also use Better Piracy, which strikes me as a much better fit for the devs vision of the game balance, perhaps with a few tweaks to the numbers. Mods like VRO are very much, in my mind at least, a significant overhaul.

I don't think they devs ever did this for Rebirth, though it was suggested. I think it'd be a good way to offer some free bonus content for X4 at a later date though.
