I don't recall Amplitude discussing a "big" expansion. Can you point to the article/stream where this was stated? The "mistake" they said they wouldn't make again, is that they wouldn't introduce an expansion that was incompatible with the base game (like Disharmony).

As of today, the only thing they've committed to is an AI/balancing patch. There's been some mention (by the devs) about expanding mod support and naval content, but none of that's confirmed.

Personally, I'm pretty satisfied with EL and I think the enhanced mod support (Steam Workshop + multi-mod + more access to game systems) would be the best add-on they could do. I would love to see more, of course, but I can wait for a sequel...

A nice catch - and this gives me hope, as I cannot get enough of this game!

You have right AI is super important for the game. But it's not AI or Balance. The both must be done.

Balance job is 5 % of the required work for the AI code I think.

We would be "crying" together then ^^

I only wait for a serious balance patch. I don't care about A.I. I think some persons wait it too.

Well if you are a huge MP player I can understand that.

But think a little about most of the people here that cant afford playing in MP because they lack of time (of alot of time...) such as me or several of my friends and that bought the game for the Singleplayer only (as 4X are so far Singleplayer focused I think...)

And the AI did really need ALOT of work and im super happy to see that Amplitude took the matter with alot of seriousness

And i would be happy, if the AI doesn't take over my faction in multiplayer no more. It still happens from time to time. And don't tell me the reason is bad connection. I observed it. It happens more often, if you have bad connection, but it's FOR SURE not the main reason. Fix it. It sucks.

I'm not as hyped for a naval faction and naval combat expansion as many seem to be here. I like the idea of water being a "soft" barrier to expansion, but still a barrier.

If there is a naval expansion in the works, I hope Amplitude takes a good hard look at CivBERT and the problems there with Rising Tide. The increased ability to move over water, and settle cities on water, means that border conflicts aren't as common. You can just expand away from them over water, if necessary. Also, naval combat isn't that much fun if it's just a re-skinned version of land combat, where you have to build different units that do the same thing.

Anyway, I'll buy any expansion for EL if there is still another one in the pipeline. Regardless of what it is.

Ye they did some awesome changes about AI. Sadly they removed the management slider so its pretty much unplayable for now

smiley: stickouttongue

Lets just wait they bring it back.

But I think the EL AI patch is worth to wait !

Still EL NEED another expansion. Seriously, there is so much to do on this game... And where are our precious naval battles that 150/200 votes on the forum asked

This has probably been rehashed a few times here but is Shadows the last expansion for the game? Are there more updates planned?

I am loving this game and would gladly pay for more content.

Otherwise, since this is my first post here is my wishlist for the game:

- Better way to see unit qualities on the map. Things like Soul Leech etc. It would be lovely to be able to hover over a unit.

- Better way to see the health of a unit on the map. So far I have a hard time seeing this.

- A way to Ctrl-Tab out of the game on Mac. Apparently this is a common Unity thing that is a super quick fix. Hope it's the same for Endless Legend.

Thanks for the great game

We'll try hosting a stream some time next month to talk about what's going on at Amplitude, what's been happening and what's to come. Currently, however, I and a part of our team are attending Paris Games Week every day and that's eating most of our efforts. So... stay tuned!

Hopefully you are right and launch another expansion. But Amplitude is a medium-size studio and currently working on 3 games:

Endless Legend

Dungeon of the Endless

Endless Space 2 (And specially this require a lot of work).

I hope I'm wrong but I think they are now focused on ES2 and their other two games just we have to wait Add-Ons and patches.

Ya I feel like Guardians and Shadows were "just" DLC, and fully expect a real full expansion to be coming. My guess is there will be an expansion, and then a large free patch a few months later that adds real modding and workshop support. IIRC we voted to have workshop support on the game, and it often makes sense to hold that off until the DLC/expansions are done so mods aren't competing with official content. I think those are the two "TBA" items on the schedule.

Well I hope its not. I talked with Romain (who is one of the devs) a year ago and he once told me that they wouldnt make the same misstake they made with ES and release multiple expansions.

If I remember well he was talking about 3, 2 minors (Shadows and Guardians) and one big expansion such as Disharmony.

I hope they are still thinking about my big expansion because else it would be really disapointing...

I have just jumped back into Endless legend and am thoroughly hooked.

I would love love love to see one more bigger expansion and do hope it's not the end for content for EL.

I would really like to see the faction count bumped up to 10 with a larger map available to have a huge game with 10 unique players.

I've put 400+ hours into EL so far.

Gonna try and squeeze a few more out of it between now and Fallout 4 while I do some achievement hunting!

Even if we don't get another expansion I've definitely gotten my gaming dollar's worth!

I think one of the devs mentioned before that they wanted to add naval combat sometime in the future, so i guess at least one expansion/dlc is on the way. Probably after ES2 though.

Welcome!

I don't think we know whether there is another expansion in the works or not, but what we do know is that there will be free updates to improve balance and the AI.
