Stellaris Dev Diary #95: Humanoids Species Pack

[laptor]

2.0 ? SO IT WILL BE HUGE. Do you plan an beta for player feedback ?
I can't wait to see more DD on this.
I can't wait but it seem it will take month or year.
I remember well one of my first MMO made by a french company : 4 or 5 year between the annoucement and the launch...
I hope swedish are quicker!

2.0 is an update, no new standalone release.
My bet is still march '18.

Commonwealth VIR sounds great! The old one sounded good too but said the silliest things.

I think you are selectively forgetting rather a lot of the content that came out alongside those things you are talking about. Unless I missed the Narnia book where Aslan builds a Dyson Sphere.

Hrr Chrr *laughing
well countered!

Hey @Wiz on the subject of possible future Shipsets, maybe having sub-variants based around Ethos would be a cool direction to look?these would add/remove/replace bits of the base shipsets, with you clicking a checkbox to enable/disable them(with multiple being able to be applied at once, with some limits of course), on top of the base selection.

For example; it would make sense for militarists to have a more menacing design compared to the base shipset, materialist to have boxy/simplistic ships, and Spiritualist to have fancy/artsy ones(habitats looking more temple/cathedral-like), and so on for example.

Machine Empires having windowless versions of their creator's art style(which would often be the materialist I imagine, but you never know), and maybe having some extra bits added on("sensors" to "replace" the windows?) would help make Machine Empires have their own flavor.(though Assimilators would likely still have windows, but maybe still have those extra bits?)

A materialist voice that doesn't sound like a cliche Hollywood nerd? Yaaay!

 

[TheDungen]

Which episode is that from?

 

[bitmapmedivh]

Which episode is that from?

The 8th Star Trek movie, First Contact.

 

[Rationalsanity]

Which episode is that from?

First Contact or Insurrection or Nemesis. You can tell because they are in DS9 uniforms.

So far we have Dragons, evil Demons, Wizards and magic Trees, now we get Space Dwarfs and Space Orcs.
Something tells me that the next Update will relocate the whole game from space to middle earth.

Honestly, i get that Stellaris isn't some kind of "hard sci-fi" game and that everyone is free not to use this cosmetic stuff, but it would be nice if sometime in the future we'd get some actual Sci-Fi content instead of more Space Narnia

Why fantasy element can't be add in a sci fi game ? Really sci fi universe isn't only space opera. It's open at all kind of universe.
Science fiction is about imagination what could be the 'future'.
So what tell you a magical specie travel among the star with space unicorn doesn't fit in a space game ? Your lack of imagination. I don't want a copy paste from Star wrek. Both of their universes are just space opera.

Until then, I leave you with these awesome screenshots:

Wow! This is great! I had hoped for something similar to the Kilrathi ships for Spiritualist warriors.

But still this is good.

Its cause they left that part out in the movies ;-)

 

[Elfwind]

Thank you for the pizza ships! Hopefully I can finally use something from the base game for a ship set since all the other ones have WHY!?! issues =P

(the normal ships are great too I just don't like the turrets nonsensical placement sometimes.)

 

[Nippleworthy]

All those DD's put together, I come to the conclusion that the Christmas holidays are saved.

 

[Jean-Luc]

Which episode is that from?

Should be the Insurrection movie. Just before going down to protect the Ba'Ku.

Edit: Nwm, it really is First Contact. :/

 

[Yukka]

There is one who look like the devil, hope there is one looking like an angel because I prefer angels.

 

[Jorrhast]

Unicorns are no humanoids. Wait for the pony pack.

https://twitter.com/Martin_Anward/status/890270069082685452 we'll have it in 3 major updates

 

[Nurizeko]

Shame I won't be purchasing this due to the Cherryh update. Even if it comes out before, that's not the kind of conduct I want to condone.

Looks nice though. :I

Edit: Unless you plan on forcing me at gun-point to buy this, your disagreement is meaningless, so save the click.

Ship set is a combination of Star Wars and Star Trek. I knew it!
