Any plans to give ArcCorp a Lorville-style refresh?asked by Helios

TL;DRArcCorp has no Lorville-scale refresh planned, only new signage and updates for the new player experience, and the devs consider it in good shape but say never say never.

There are some refreshing elements, that's not a good phrase, to ArcCorp coming as part of the new player experience. I think it was recently added to the public roadmap. We'll be talking again more about that next quarter when we come back from hiatus on ISC. The first version of the new player experience is centered around ArcCorp. So that has required some new signage and some updates and stuff. I think folks actually saw a sneak peek in the weekly newsletter a week or two or three ago. That's what that was, with the cool new signage and everything that's being added around ArcCorp. So not the full scale of what's happening with Lorville at the moment. But if there's one thing I've learned about this project in, I hit eight years in like a week, it's never say never. So not today, not tomorrow, but it's possible.

I mean, there are things on ArcCorp that could be touched up, but for the most part, I think ArcCorp's in a pretty great condition. We looked a lot through ArcCorp for Lorville and how they built their formula from a modern, more built city in the game. But for the most part, I think ArcCorp's in great condition.

And the building interiors part was also a big factor in why Lorville had to be redone, just so they could take in those interiors. Some buildings were, like you said before, too small.

Sean GiampietroEnvironment Artist, Turbulent

Yeah, we had to resize them, scale them up, build them for building interiors.

Yeah, so it's like future-proofing the city.
