Idris Revamp - [Comm-Links](https://api.star-citizen.wiki/comm-links) - Idris Revamp Idris Revamp ============ Undefined Undefined None [Previous](https://api.star-citizen.wiki/comm-links/13779) [Next](https://api.star-citizen.wiki/comm-links/13781) Content ------- English Greetings Citizens, The Idris corvette is dead; long live the Idris frigate! The team at Foundry 42 is currently building the first missions for Squadron 42, the single player game that will launch you into the Star Citizen universe. The game’s story calls for the player to start the game aboard a smaller UEE capital ship. We assigned them the Idris, the scrappy little corvette with a fierce bite already designed by Ryan Church. Working from the Idris for this piece seemed like a natural fit… until the team whiteboxing the interior found that the original concept was not sized to fit with the Hornet model. Since the Idris would need to carry multiple Hornets (in both Squadron 42 and the persistent universe) they needed to expand the flight deck. Other additions, necessary as we learned exactly how a capital ship would function, necessitated more inside: a tender to support repair operations, medical facilities for the FPS segment and so on. The Idris needed to get bigger and better! In the end, the ship was a full hundred meters longer and a much more imposing threat than the patrol corvette we originally imagined. As such, we have made the decision to reclassify the ship. The Idris is now a frigate, and existing fiction will be updated to reflect this change wherever possible. We are not removing Idrises from anyone’s inventories; everyone who owned an Idris corvette yesterday owns an Idris frigate today. I’m hoping existing backers will be happy: you’re ending up with twice the ship you pledged for! If you’re absolutely dead set on seeing a corvette in Star Citizen, have no fear: our designers and artists are going to get to work on a new, smaller corvette that will be made available in the future! Please enjoy some of the latest Idris artwork included in this post. This is the ship as it stands today. Development subscribers will also get an extensive WIP article in today’s Jump Point magazine, launching later tonight (click here for more information on how to subscribe.) Pay special attention to the search-and-rescue ship, now included with every Idris… it’s one of the reasons we needed to reclassify! — Chris Roberts Grüße Bürger, Die Idris-Korvette ist tot; es lebe die Fregatte Idris! Das Team von Foundry 42 baut derzeit die ersten Missionen für Squadron 42, das Einzelspieler-Spiel, das Sie in das Star Citizen-Universum führt. Die Geschichte des Spiels fordert den Spieler auf, das Spiel an Bord eines kleineren UEE-Hauptschiffes zu starten. Wir haben ihnen die Idris, die rauflustige kleine Korvette mit einem heftigen Biss zugewiesen, die bereits von der Ryan Church entworfen wurde. Die Arbeit von den Idris an diesem Stück schien wie eine natürliche Passform zu sein.... bis das Team, das die Inneneinrichtung des Whiteboxings durchführte, feststellte, dass das ursprüngliche Konzept nicht so groß war, dass es zum Hornet-Modell passte. Da die Idris mehrere Hornissen tragen mussten (sowohl in der Staffel 42 als auch im persistenten Universum), mussten sie das Flugdeck erweitern. Weitere Ergänzungen, die notwendig waren, da wir genau erfuhren, wie ein Großschiff funktionieren würde, erforderten mehr Innenleben: eine Ausschreibung zur Unterstützung von Reparaturarbeiten, medizinische Einrichtungen für das FPS-Segment und so weiter. Die Idris mussten größer und besser werden! Am Ende war das Schiff volle hundert Meter länger und eine viel imposantere Bedrohung als die Patrouillenkorvette, die wir uns ursprünglich vorgestellt hatten. Daher haben wir die Entscheidung getroffen, das Schiff neu zu klassifizieren. Die Idris ist jetzt eine Fregatte, und die bestehende Fiktion wird aktualisiert, um dieser Veränderung Rechnung zu tragen, wo immer es möglich ist. Wir entfernen Idrisen nicht aus den Beständen von irgendjemandem; jeder, der gestern eine Idris-Korvette besaß, besitzt heute eine Idris-Fregatte. Ich hoffe, dass die bestehenden Geldgeber zufrieden sein werden: Sie erhalten am Ende das Doppelte des Schiffes, für das Sie sich verpflichtet haben! Wenn Sie unbedingt eine Corvette in Star Citizen sehen wollen, haben Sie keine Angst: Unsere Designer und Künstler werden an einer neuen, kleineren Corvette arbeiten, die in Zukunft verfügbar sein wird! Bitte genießen Sie einige der neuesten Idris-Artworks, die in diesem Beitrag enthalten sind. Das ist das Schiff, wie es heute aussieht. Entwicklungsabonnenten erhalten auch einen ausführlichen WIP-Artikel im heutigen Jump Point Magazin, der später am Abend veröffentlicht wird (klicken Sie hier, um weitere Informationen zur Anmeldung zu erhalten.) Achten Sie besonders auf das Such- und Rettungsschiff, das jetzt bei jedem Idris enthalten ist.... es ist einer der Gründe, warum wir eine Neueinstufung vornehmen mussten! - Chris Roberts Greetings Citizens, The Idris corvette is dead; long live the Idris frigate!
