Will we be able to explore the Idris before the game launch?asked by Korbert Volkov
TL;DRThey don't know yet whether the Idris will be explorable before launch; it's an ongoing debate, the decision isn't needed until it's ready, and the current build is still unfinished.
You're going to want to check out the interview with Erin Roberts from last week's ATV.
We don't know the answer to that yet. So maybe you don't need to check out the interview with Erin Roberts.
No, but there's more to it than just that, though. There's lots of good information about things that seem to involve your interests.
Yeah, it's an ongoing debate about the Idris, just because it's so essential to a bunch of Squadron 42 scenes. We don't necessarily want to give away the sets. It would be like putting out the sets to a movie before it comes out. But there's also a compelling reason to get it out there and people seeing how cool it is. So ongoing discussion. And either way, it's not a decision that has to be made until it's ready to go.
So it's not there yet. It's not like we have a switch right now that's Idris going off. It's not like we could have it out there to you guys and we're just dragging our feet. It's not ready to go yet.
Yeah, QA is testing an Idris build right now where you can do all the inner stuff, that's true, but it's not done done. You'll get in there and you'll go down two decks and there'll be a completely blank room or something. So it still has some work going on.
