Thank you for the candor. I think it is good to manage expectations like that. Knowing that it will be AT LEAST 6 months beats being given an approximate date that something WILL happen. smile Welcome and I hope this is a good experience for you.

Holy ■■■■. Genuinely never thought we were going to get an update on this. I am glad to hear Boundless is going to get some love.

I said previously that I am cautiously optimistic. I have to say that I got a slight upgrade when I saw that once you start working on this game your first priority will be the New Player Experience. That speaks volumes as that is one of the biggest problems I have seen consistently in my time of playing this game. And there has been little dissent regarding the notion that it needs to be improved. I imagine you will take the time that it gets what it needs and won’t throw it to the public until it is done well. Thanks for that! I can wait until you have done that for pants. smile

Big news, fair no worries takes time :slight_smile: for the few crazy folks of us… that have a lot of large portals (or just any XL portal) to fuel… every 4 days and 4 hours… Any chance considerations for mini patch to add compact Oort (as was planned in the unreleased patch ) to work as portal fuel ? If so… please add to the wish list :stuck_out_tongue:

Have now been fueling the ULT portal network every 4 days (mostly … except a few shutdowns… woops… ) for 2+ years… that repeats every 4 days… to spend 10-15 mins running around and cram in more fuel.
Would really love to not have to keep on doing that another 45+ times more (6 month’ish :P)

(or cough slash the portal fuel tickrate in half… so at least even for the largest portals… they do last past 7 days… ) but I guess that might also be wishful thinking in regards to the economy

Well this actually made me smile. I don’t know if I should start playing again now or wait a bit more. I kinda want to have a big place before new people comes in.

But I also don’t want to get burned out before any of that happens lol.

Accidental deletion.

Internally, Monumental has just over 80 employees. We also work with an amazing external partner that adds another 20 or so. Just around half of those are software engineers.

The transition team for Boundless is currently two engineers and a project manager. Once we get through the transition phase (and have control of the game), we’ll start building a new team.

I’m not sure if the events are currently automated (I think they are?), but I’m curious if we’ll see the Spooktacular Halloween event and Oortmas this year?

If a color-cycling Exo would spawn, that would be amazing :grin:

I think Halloween and oortmas were automated events last year.
But yes a lot of people would love a colour changing exo. Can someone flip the switch on that…? :eyes::crossed_fingers:
