What are the long-term plans for lockers and weapon racks in the persistent universe? Will they still be relevant with the equipment manager mobiGlas app?
TL;DRLockers and weapon racks are still planned to work alongside the mobiGlas app, letting players pick items or whole loadouts, but this is planned for much later and will hopefully be reached eventually.
Okay, well, in terms of the long-term goals for those, we still plan for them to work alongside the mobiGlas app. So what you're essentially going to be doing as a player will be approaching a locker, and within your mobiGlas ahead of time, you will have set up a number of loadouts. So you may have, say, a combat loadout where you've got your armor, your weapons, grenades, all the rest of it, and you may just have a civilian clothing loadout instead. So what you basically do is interact with the weapon rack or locker. You can interact with each individual item if you want to, and just add it to what you've already got, or you will be able to just pick a loadout and then equip it. So it really is one of those things that's kind of planned for much later down the line, but it is certainly planned. So we do have a plan in place, and hopefully it's one of those things, with all the priorities that we have, that we will get around to at some point.
Well, I have no doubt. Chris is a big fan of those diegetic interfaces. He wants you, as often as you can, to go to something that's tangible in the universe and have it function.
