Question about news for fs19

Post by Gimli54 »

Hey Lis I was just wondering if you can tell us if y’all have a basic idea of when you wanna release new information for fs19 like do y’all plan to try and release a tid bit here and there every two weeks or just something along those lines or is it more of once they think it’s ready to be revealed they give you the green light and post it in the news section, thanks for all the hard work y’all are doing can’t wait, God bless y’all

So let's see.

First of all, there are two things we need to keep in mind here.

1. Marketing: Some things are set in stone (but not necessarily done yet) but we haven't announced them for marketing reasons. I think that one is obvious.
2. Not done: That one is even more important for me. At this stage of development, we are working on several things right now and we don't know if all of them make it into the game. There are many reasons whe we might not have things in the game that we work on. Maybe they don't work in the end, or they work but are not fun to play, or they work and the game performance drops like mad... so some of the things we work on might not make it into the finished game.
I don't want to announce anything before we know it works. Just imagine I'd announce (I make something super weird up now ^^ ) starships and everyone is super excited about starships and then a dev turns around and goes: Well, if a starship shows up, the cows explode and we can't fix it before release, so no Starships for now - then my announcement all the sudden turns into "GIANTS IS FUFF OF POOP" .. I really want to avoid this.

So the plan is: Some things will be announced at specific dates for marketing reasons and an even bigger amount of things will be anounced as soon as they are finished enough for me that I'm sure they will be in.

As for FactSheets, not sure. I'd guess (wild guess) they will start somewhere around gamescom.
