I think we do. The old colony kinda died, and i would love to see a new one with all the updates, units, fortifications, etc. that would bring.

Read this post if you want a brief theory as to why you haven't seen Colony 2 yet.

yes i do think we need a second colony because it gives us chance to work at using better AI systems as well as dive into new unit possibilities.
me and my friend have been playing for a while and we just cant loose so it would be good to also have a way so you could control all 8 pads on a 1v1

I agree with RM. Constantly having new units, governments, buildings and whatever else would be better than having a completely new game for the creator to start ignoring.

Colony was launched July 30, 2009, and we already had this forum posted regarding a sequel less than two months later. Krin did a fantastic job on this. It featured multi-player, which is something you don't really see on this site, and it placed 4 people in an epic battle that and was very enjoyable for a flash game, and I think that best the site has ever seen. Now, here we are, and it has been almost five years since the launch of ArmorGames most epic game. However, it unfortunately died out a couple years ago due to the glitches and exploiters of the games code who used it to cheat. It was fun while it lasted, but not nearly as many people play it as once was. Although a sequel has been pitched all over the site, it is unlikely by now that we will actually see one from due to how long it has been, although I may be wrong, and he is still active so he may still be working on it.
But, however, I do have some news for you. I am a 3D artist, and I have an interesting idea. My idea is to turn this 2D flash game into an epic 3D RTS with the same multi-player layout and all of the features. I plan on getting permission from Krin to work with programmers and create a Colony 2. ArmorGames wouldn't be able to handle a game of this magnitude, so it will have to be either a PC download or better yet have it's own little website to run it. But, once I get my team going and finish with what we are already doing, I plan on doing this. I already have some 3D models of the game sprites created, and I plan on making all of them.
If you have any questions, my email is JoeyEvans21@hotmail.com
Reply on here and let me know what you think

*I have linked an image an A-25 Roman model that I made, it's a little tricky to model off of such a tiny, low-quality image but it can be done. I based the Roman off of the schematic on the opening screen, although it's not finished yet. If you want to see others, you can email me.

We really need a colony 2. Colony has lost interest over the years. About two years ago, i played this game 24/7. Now, in 2014, there are like NO players in the lobby. Krin better make an update or a colony two if he wants to please armorgame.

Also I do have a plan for changes to it. I want to keep the balance of the game as Krin intended it, but there are small interface and changes and some other cool things that would make it so much better. Just a couple examples of changes I would implement:
~3D (the most obvious one)
~1v1 being a game mode
~Having a more graphic based UI/menu system
~As above, you can click on a player and view ALL of their stats
~All existing bugs and glitches will hopefully be resolved
~Rank reset glitch notable will be fixed to stats will mean something
~Having multiple backgrounds that are different every game (maybe even a pre-game setting)
~Most units would stay the same except for some small changes (i.e. Mod. Sakatas would be able to attack air; maybe another air unit)
~Base upgrades, like being able to improve the turret for defense
