I saw a question similiar in one of the Phoenix Rising News topics and decided I'd ask a similiar question here.
I often here that this mod changes so much it's like a whole other game
does this means this mod changes to much to be leagal and in one of the updates yesterday said " A couple of Forces of Corruption ports" even though this is a mod for Forces of Corruption is porting something back into the game illegal?

Please respond
Thanks

I think the other thread you saw went a bit sideways.

Basically we took some old FOC units and put them back into this mod with corrected stats. Just like we have done for all other units. Both the MC-30 and Crusader corvette were in the original FOC game, but with wild stats and armaments. We had taken them out a LONG time ago for this very reason.

Take a look at the Action VI Light frigate - this is the PR version of the EAW's original Pirate Frigate but with reasonable shielding and armaments.

The legal/illegal thing is a bit off the wall in my opinion.

As far as I can tell, alls that is released are files created by PR and the team; none of those that were made by Petroglyph. They may reference the original models and skins, but those components come with each install of the game; not from the mod.

I don't appreciate this insinuation that we're somehow doing something illegal. I've already debunked it once, so this thread doesn't need to exist. Locked.
