What do people mean they didn't change anything? They have most likely fixed bugs in addition to fully working multiplayer (game ranger and voobly exist but there is always lag issues there and it really isn't the internet), mod support and the graphics are not only improved (tell me the sea looks the same.. i dare you) but the resolution is higher, allowing you to see more of what you are doing. This will also re-introduce the game, hopefully bringing some attention to new players and creating a multiplayer community on a massive scale (more than just 1000 people at peak time). i am gonna buy the 4 pack getting me the game at 11.25 pounds (16 - 17 dollars) which is completely fine by me. Just because there are cheaper (and more sluggish) ways to achieve most of this, you can't get the player base back and that alone is worth the money.
