It's not necessarily my cup of tea, but I still thought it was kind of cool:  In celebration of Halloween, the devs created an official mod called "Stellaris Survival: Necroid Invasion".

The mod is "designed to be a Co-op Survival Multiplayer", but apparently also plays well in singleplayer mode.  It's only supposed to last 70 years, so it can be an interesting way to play a "quick" game of Stellaris.

That’s odd and annoying. It works fine for me. Have you gotten rid of any and all mods?

No. It seems the update creates a lot of problems with different configurations. I guess mine is due the my AMD graphic cards but not sure. Guess they didn't think beta testing was necessary for that update...

Actually they've been running an open beta for a month or two.

I know, I was kidding but this specific patch brings a lot of problems. I hope they can solve it soon.

i was certain paradox was done making story packs for stellaris, so that alone has me excited -- story packs have always been my favorite kind of dlc on average.

however, the focus on pre-FTL civs, with related origins & event-chains, PLUS the introduction of cloaking tech (at long last!) just sounds like a heck of a lot of fun. and setting up minimar specialized industries as a "villain" for these new origins is fantastic; sounds like they'll be a blast to take down!
