I går to vi en prat med Artplants Andy Butcher for å finne ut litt mer om spillstudioets rombaserte MMO, Entropy. Spilldesigneren hadde mye å fortelle, og de har tydeligvis mange planer når spillet forlater Early Access på Steam - sannsynligvis senere i år.
Butcher uttalte seg om hvorfor spillet ennå ikke har noe cockpit view:
- Cockpit view we definitely want to add... There are some design issues that are related to it, because the current UI has been designed from a third-person view.
- There's some UI things that we're going to have to change around, so that they work better for a cockpit view. But the main thing is just for our artists to find some time to start working on designing the cockpits, because we want each ship to have a unique cockpit layout. It's definitely something that will come.
- I would love it if we could support Oculus. From my point of view it's largely a technical challenge... I honestly can't say right now whether it's something we will be able to do, but it's certainly something that we're all very aware of, and at the very least we'd like to investigate it and see if we can work with it.
- But, with that said, it's not a high priority item, it'd be more likely to come sometime after release, because we want to focus on the core gameplay first of all, and get that working really well, before we start to expand out into things like Oculus.
Entropy er for øyeblikket ut på Early Access på Steam. Det er også en del av Steams sommersalg, og alle de tre pakkene (Colonist, Explorer and Founder) kan skaffes til 33 prosent redusert pris.
