However, I discussed the idea of this with one of our technical artists and he believes we would be capable of doing so. The primary concerns are typically our asset / memory / processor etc.. budgets. Their are a lot of types of things we would like to do with our sockets, but our first priority is to get a specific set for each race out currently.
And the different planet types, hopefully =) |

Team Knee 101 right now is that team. It only consists of two level designers, and the environment artists in that team need all of them on one SI at a time. From an art standpoint, it takes about 2 or 3 months to get them fully art treated and optimized. That's including all t he supporting sockets that go with an SI. This isn't a task that can be done over night by a single team.
Oh, I completely understand, Im just surprised that Uprising is going as far as 1.7 or more. Theres a lot of content these gents are wanting and youmoght want to consider rolling out Weapons Labs (weapon testing in a safe environment) and Social Interaction areas (see thread on Corporation Hub) before working on more sockets. I understand more sockets to kill the repetition is a priority but they dont really have any long term benefits.
Not to say we dont want to see some bitchin' new sockets  |

Not to say we dont want to see some bitchin' new sockets Yes, but... this is what level design and environment art does. We make gameplay space. I imagine if / when areas like social hubs and Weapons Labs get support from code (such as written or ready for use) then we would actually build them from a content perspective.
Perhaps suggest the idea in the forums and see what the response from the community is? Im sure the players wouldnt mind a shiftin priority if it was brought up as a potential path. Technically corp hubs would just be a copy/paste of the warbarge in the short term but itd be a great base for other concepts later on down the line.
Though it is good to see that the only roadblock hereis the greenlight on coding though =)
Thanks Logi! |
