How much as this game improved from the original?

from Sins Forums

I am interested in playing sins again, the new game looks awesome. I originally played sins back in 2008 when it first came out ,but couldn't really have the time to play an entire game in MP. I remember games lasting at least 2 or more hours.  What is the average game length for rebellion on the fastest settings, are games still around 2 to 4 hours long?

Well the addition of Entrenchment helped the game alot actually, it organized your defenses into a defensive tech tree. And gave suicide positions in multiplayer a better chance at holding against enemies.

 

Diplomacy had redone the diplomacy tree, it isn't to useful in multiplayer unless your eco wants to invest in getting in, but then you also have to invest in it as well which is kind of lame.

 

And as for time length in multiplayer I would have to say probably about 30 minutes-1 hour so pretty much standard RTS. With the new Capital Victory condition in rebellion I can see it becoming shorter as well.

Thanks for the response. If games are now 30 mins to an hour that is great! getting me more hyped up for the game.
