When are we going to see more roads linking bases and garages and stuff?

TL;DRNo date or plan is given for roads linking bases; some Pyro outposts have unreleased roads, while broader linking roads are hard and not a priority.

So that was interesting, doing that at CitizenCon. So not only did we make the biggest sandbox locations we've got in the game, no one cares about that. The roads thing. Yeah, don't know. I'm going to say that to that one, because I actually don't know.

People love roads. And in some locations, we do have roads. But you can't use them. They haven't been released yet.

What are you talking about?

John GriffithsLead Environment Artist

Things on Pyro. Locations on Pyro have roads.

Jared HuckabyHost, Community

Like what location? Like the trading posts?

John GriffithsLead Environment Artist

Yeah, the outposts. Some of them. Some of them have roads going through them.

They're dirt roads, but they're very clearly thoroughfares. They're not exactly like gravel.

John GriffithsLead Environment Artist

No, they're not all tarmac. I get what you're saying. They're not these.

Jared HuckabyHost, Community

They're thoroughfares. You can tell immediately the intention is to drive a vehicle through there.

But the broader roads, linking places... hard maybe? We would love to, but we have more pressing concerns.

I don't know if Pyro is the right system for a series of complex interconnected highways and stuff like that. That's not really the vibe of Pyro.
