Entrenchment

in the shops?

from Sins Forums

HI,

Not been playing with sins since about July as I felt the game play became repetive and I didnt like the way you could not expand without leaving your flanks exposed for a fleet to come round and make a mess of things.

However...

Entrenchment looks like it will change all that, so i might even go and buy it.  But my internet is a mobile broadband one and i would rather buy the box in a shop than download a large file.  Does anyone know the file size?

Thanks.

Oh and btw, the screenshots are dated December 2009 for Entrenchment.  Someone abit keen for the new year? :)

It's about 240MB to download. If you have the patch 1.12 for the basic game allready. If not, Another 100MB or so.

 It's been a while.. either way, it's fairly small as there aren't that many new graphical assets and so far in the beta the new ships' voices are placeholders using the current ones.

Edit: Beaten :D

Oh thats good then. Thanks.  I am currently downloading the 1.12.042 version and thats about 220MB.  Would of thought it would be more with the new ships.  Do you know if you can get it in the shops as well?

Entrenchment won't be boxed, unfortunately. It's too cheap to make boxing and finding retail space any sort of profitable :P Once all the mini expansions are squeezed out they've tossed around the idea of boxing them all, but they haven't committed to anything.

Edit: Do note that the current beta release of Entrenchment will completely overwrite your Sins 1.12 install. If you want to be able to play Sins 1.12, you should make a copy of the installation folder first, then update to Entrenchment. Then you can run Sins 1.12 off the copied folder, and Entrenchment out of the original. The final release won't need to have you do this, but I figured I should give you a heads up so you won't be stuck having to re-download all of Sins :P
