===Reception===
 
===Reception===
Dawn of Sol was generally negatively received by the community for having a weakly fleshed out story, many FREDding mistakes and badly designed [[Battle of Endor Syndrome|BoE]] missions. Some people felt it attempted to emulate [[Blue Planet]] in some aspects. However, the modpack was well received, albeit with some minor issues.

Dawn of Sol has received mixed to favorable reviews from its players. The mod's indisputable strength is its visuals, which received universal acclaim. Dawn of Sol's weaknesses involve repetitive gameplay, FREDding mistakes, and uneven difficulty of its missions.
