[DE]Rebecca Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Hello Tenno! There’s no preamble that can articulate the impact COVID-19 has had on the game industry. Between game delays (sometimes multiple), cancelled conventions, and more, this year has been very strange. And we have embraced a constant storm of this strangeness. Because of COVID, our team’s usual vacations simply didn’t happen - where would we go? Our living rooms? And then the truth has set in: we have basically an entire team with vacation time ready to go in December. We have worked our butts off this year, and we are now all balancing weeks of unused vacation that will inevitably overlap. Rather than work on a feature-defining important Railjack Update with even less staff than usual in December, we are moving it to 2021. This is for the community’s sake, and the dev’s as well. 2020 has been a test of resilience for all of us, and has more than ever emphasized the need to take breaks. Our team will be spending time (safely) with their families during this holiday season should they choose so, and we hope that you all have the chance to do so as well. We will close off 2020 with a little serpentine Alchemy on PC. Expect Lavos in a mini-update that tests out a new feature in a limited setting: Necramechs in regular missions! Those of you who played our Survival event in 2013 may be used to this type of release (small test before wide release). We will provide more details on this soon - we're airing a special time Devstream to cover all this and more (check that spoiler!) See you, Tenno Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightmareT12 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Highly understandable and deserved. Thanks for the hard work you guys have poured this year with the special load COVID meant. Really hoping you guys get a good rest and, in the measure of what's feasible in Canada, you can enjoy some time with your families if possible. See you in 2021 for what we all collectively hope is a much better year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great.Dane Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 This is a very unique situation. I hope everyone stays safe and healthy! The sooner this pandemic ends the sooner everything can get back to normal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltage Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Maybe that's why Halikar Wraith was in the notes and later removed. 👀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loza03 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I think this is wise. Even in 2019, Railjack's release being kept in-year was... dicey. I wish you all the best of luck! The better care you take of yourselves, the better it all is for everyone. No Tenno is a cliche metaphor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maelphaedor Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Totally understandable, looking forward to using my necramechs in normal missions, the grineer and corpus need to feel the smackdown. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabpsi Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Thank you for this information! A good decision, very reasonable imo. Stay safe&healthy. Try to get your mind a little bit away from the usual work stuff! Enjoy your vacations, all of you at DE! Let us all begin the next year with high hopes & full of energy! Oh and did I hear "remember 2013 survival stuff" ? I do, and I am really looking forward to see this way of implementing new ideas again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerikus Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I am very happy about this, I was actually kinda worried about the Railjack update, since there are only few weeks until Christmas. Railjack is a thing that can tie this game together perfectly and the next iteration must be perfect. :) So I support this 100%. There is no need to rush it this year. Enjoy the vacation, stay safe and take care. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SneakyErvin Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Sounds like a good decision and it is understandable. Considering the whole Covid thing, it has still been a pretty remarkable year with releases given how smooth they've been overall. Now if Liches and Railjack were Covid releases it would make more sense. 😛 Keep up the good work. Sidenote: I as a swede cannot really grasp the impact of Covid over on the western continent. Talking to my former sister in law in New Mexico it seems like a different reality. Here we barely notice the impact of it, I'm more worried in having a seagul pooping on me when I'm outside.

KirKap Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Another holiday without a major update in my favourite game so... Need to pick another game to play in December then. Even Rebecca playing FFXIV, maybe I should take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MobyTheDuck Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 While I wish you guys a good vacation and holidays, PLEASE think twice before adding more stuff that no one will be able to check or fix until after January. Railjack and Liches were a big dung pile because of that. Would be better to focus on smaller things like fixes, QoL improvements and common buffs, instead of releasing Lavos only for him to be in a sorry state for two months.
