Or a game like Civilization, each new Civ you can purchase for 2.99 or whatever.... sadly, i just ignore Civ now, i HATE microtransactions.mr.WHO wrote: ↑Wed, 17. Mar 21, 15:49I'd rather stick with big yearly DLCs than going Scam Citizen route of ships or ship packs.
IMO Pirates and Corporations would be good as one big DLC and Aldrin & Goners as second big DLC.
You wanna see something awful? Go to Steam and find the games called "Dead or Alive 5" and "Dead or Alive 6" - these two have like milion tiny DLCs for them.
I would lose the respect for Egosoft if they go for microtransaction route.
Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?

Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
Mh after thinking about it some more, sure I would pay for NEW ship designs...but it would have to be A: a bunch of them and B: at a reasonable price.
If we are just talking about bringing old vanilla faction ships back, that should happen alongside of the DLC update in a free patch.

To put our money where our mouth is, so to speak.
I would even go as far as to spend for the content to be made. I.e. kickerstarter.
If Egosoft put up new artwork as kickstarters before committing to it, I for one would pay to fund this.
Not sure if this is mentioned within OP, but count me in.

This one is one of the best trategies of war hammer My friends are still talking about itStumbling wrote: ↑Tue, 16. Mar 21, 08:02It could be good if they took the warhammer total war DLC approach from https://eldfall-chronicles.com/ They could tackle one race at a time in smaller/cheaper DLC, where they add a couple of new ships and you get the redesigns as free for all. I would happily pay for that, but tbh I am mostly ok with the S/M ships, its just some of the L and XL which look like they were designed at a small scale and they really stretched.

Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
that bepands on price, how much i get, and quality.
i understand nobody works for free (at least a normal person don't)
improving the game and graphics will cost extra and i'm willing to play extra so long it's not a extorsion
but is that fair to people that's bit less fortunate then me.
i think if Egosoft go subscription mode and ask 2$ a 3$ a month and really deliver extra quality i would not mind that so much.
for example spend it on a extra graphics engineer that works on the 3D models

Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
I would also purchase additional DLC with new ships / ship remodels. Also more interiors we can mix and match in MODs would be awesome.
Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
Added stuff + redesigns, yes, yes I would pay for that DLC, just like how I'm going to buy Tides of Avarice.
Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
I think solid designs for ships in the game are a base requirement.
For example, the old designs of the Paranid ships wasn't aligned with the 50€ of the base game price, that's why I think it's fair enough to have the new designs included.
Now, don't get me wrong, I totally love the new designs, but I would probably be disappointed if I had to pay separate DLCs to get them, I would rather have a donation button to support this company anyway because I love its games.
But no, I think a DLC should also include more content as they have them now (new factions, new sectors, new mechanics and so on... Of course not just designs)

Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
Yes I would buy a DLC that adds more ships for base factions.
I would not pay for a redesign though, The worst ships in the game were the paranid for me, Argons and Teladi have good looking ships but I would love to have some more diversity !

Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
I would if it was done in a neat way, bring back OTAS or a similar mega corp that had their own line of ships, i cant remember my x3, tc and ap lore, i believe OTAS had really nice ships, that cluster of systems around legends home could be a neat expansion, they were super high tech and could have survived the gate crash . Bring back the Aldrin system. An expansion pack of well optimized ships would be fantastic. Also i miss the Hyperion Vanguard , that was my personal ship.
Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
I'd be willing to pay for something that was WORTH THE PRICE.
Micro-transactions are almost never worth the price. They often don't cost much, but you get almost nothing.
If we are talking new ships that plug obvious gaps in what should exist, they should be free (and I'm sure ES would provide them free).
If we are talking new ships of stats, quantity and quality that they would be DLC-worthy (like M0 ships, or expanded Kha'ak) then ES might as well create full DLCs (big or small) around them with stories, quest chains and new game mechanics to support them. And I'd pay for that.

Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
I would be willing to pay a bit extra to get extra varieties of ships in the game.
Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
Re-skins no, I would not pay for that probably. New ships, yes probably if it included enough new ships.

Re: Anyone else would be willing to pay for new ships designs DLC?
If Egosoft has not the capacity to hire staff for (re)designing ships, may it be possible to involve the community in some way? For example make a contest, concept art collection thread or involve modders who already make beautiful ships on their own etc.
