Rationally, yes. But the packages might already be too integrated on their side that they’re thinking the effort to do so isn’t worth it, especially with a skeleton crew

Looks like the whole delay stemmed from the conversation that eventually led to this post. It’s now been 1 month and 11 days later and as far as I can tell the posts from James seem to indicate they’re still not sure which path to go down.
Edit: They still have to add oort seams to possible resources to embed on local worlds on top of the local universe download/generate debate. And ideally melee weapons get an animation and sound update prior to launch but highly doubting it. I maintain that I don’t see much happening on testing before the end of this month and don’t see this going live until late May, early June?
