Thaudal Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I saw the presentation and panel from PAX East. The game looks good and about what I expected. However, one thing has me a little worried. Seeing the main menu, there's this little item called "Deliverables". Now I know they did that awesome little tweet back in 2017 with Tim and Leonard where they said there would be no mtx or crates, but... With the recent backpeddling on other things (such as Steam availability), I can't help but worry. The main menu is shown as also having "Extras", so the "Deliverables" sounds a bit worrying. I'm hoping that it's just some sort of in-game thing like maybe new weapons showing as available from various corporations or something like that, and nothing like any sort of microtransactions. What do you think it could be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C2B Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 (edited) Other devs refer to builds as delieverables as well. Honestly, sounds like a dev option. Edited March 31, 2019 by C2B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaudal Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 Ah, that would explain it perfectly. Really hoping this to be the answer. What a relief! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AeonsLegend Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 It might be a developer option. Deliverables from a Scrum Sprint: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_Sprint Scrum doesn't use the term deliverables. That's from a waterfall project style because deliverables are pre defined. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equivalent agile term is "feature" "Art and song are creations but so are weapons and lies" "Our worst enemies are inventions of the mind. Pleasure. Fear. When we see them for what they are, we become unstoppable." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandy Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 It's a contract term. Contractor must meet/provide deliverables by date X or not get paid/risk penalty. Not sure of the OP context reference, but it would be interesting if the player had to provide in-game deliverables, you know, because of the unbridled corporate perspective of the game...
