Som vi kunde rapportera igår, har nu den första expansionen till Sea of Thieves, kallad The Hungering Deep, nu släppts. Vi har sedan tidigare fått veta planerna för den närmsta tiden när det kommer till nytt innehåll, men det verkar som att Rare har högre ambitioner ändå för detta. Nu har nämligen ett fjärde team startats som ska jobba med spelet och dess utbyggnad.
I en intervju berättar executive producer Joe Neate mer om detta:
"We don't like doing anything "normal" or "traditional," we like to explore new things. We like this idea for introducing new content. We want our content updates to be very regular, and we're currently nailing that down. We split into three separate game teams to support this, switching between content updates. The Hungering Deep team had the shortest lead time, working on it for the last six or seven weeks. That team will now move on to their next big update. Then you have the teams working on Cursed Sails and Forsaken Shores, and those guys have a bit of a longer lead time. What we're trying to do is bring new content faster to players, while extending the amount of lead time each team has to create this bunch of new content.
As we build up, each time will hopefully have a longer lead time as well. We're currently spinning up the fourth team, we're all in on Sea of Thieves."
Angående det innehåll vi kan vänta oss framledes säger Neate:
"Ultimately we're trying to get to a place where, as each team delivers, they'll enrich the journey, add new goals, enrich existing quests, and so on. We're trying to broaden all the bits of the game that the community tells us are the most important."
Tanken var att husdjur skulle släppas till Sea of Thieves, vilket Rare tidigare avslöjar. Men tydligen kommer vi få vänta länge på detta och Neate förklarar att de istället satsar på annat:
"Basically, we do want to do them, they're on the back burner for now. Our focus for the moment is delivering awesome content for players, and that's what our next few content updates revolve around. Beyond that, we expect to bring them in, but we'll just see how the next few content updates go. If people are enjoying Sea of Thieves and love what we're doing, we'll consider when to bring pets back in."
Har du testat The Hungering Deep till Sea of Thieves ännu och vad tyckte du om det?
