ArunPrasath Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Hi All, Seeing the surface biome, I cannot help but wonder: are we approaching the end of the game updates? Is this among the last 3-4 updates to come? Will ONI be released in 6 months? Whats your thoughts?

BlueLance Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Id probably say sometime in 2019, seeing the surface biome would make you think that if its an escape the planet game, but we don't know what the end result is gonna be.

goboking Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 @watermelen671 has compiled a bunch of unused art assets in this thread that suggest that the lore will soon be fleshed out. After that, a win condition is all that's really needed to call this game complete. So I'm going to guess that we are indeed approaching a full release of the game. That said, I have no doubt that Klei will continue to expand the game with further features and new resources even after release.

Most of those arts+new buildings can be easily implemented in just 1 update. Hope the devs planned for a lot more than whats currently in the game. Currently, game has plenty of diversity, but needs a lot more content to be a full fledged game. Hopefully a multi ending scenario like that of surviving mars game will be implemented. Since the game is quite a lengthy one, a multi ending with different crisis/events at the endgame will be awesome and will sustain replayability until that many scenarios.

I definitely think more content and rebalancing is needed before the game can be considered complete, I wouldn't expect a full release before 2019.

Miravlix Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 The game is only okay in it's current state because it's early access. With the release of the updates that give you a really good reason to start over, the game play just falls apart as you start to run out of resources. Considering something like MachaVillian and Surviving Mars released before they where finished, I might end up being wrong and it will be released in it's current broken state.

blash365 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 You are jumping to conclusions, Prasath. (and i fail to see the benefit of this question apart from that one business executive who stumbles over it on the forum and thinks "wait, the players are already satisfied? lets wrap it and sell the next piece of game!") If i am not mistaken kLei would communicate it to their EA-participants ahead of time (and maybe cream it with an extra release update), if they leave early access. If you have participated in the prison architect EA, you would have experienced that they stretched their EA period over roughly 3 years (which won them a BAFTA award). At the end of that time they carefully told the community over the course of several monthly release videos, that they felt that the game had reached a state of saturation. Since kLei is doing something very similar (at least 1 video stream per update) and there is zero sight of lack of ideas or enthusiasm, i would place my bets on that there is a pretty glamorous road ahead of us. There are also countless loose ends, that i still expect to get stitched together: more backstory (which is even announced in the very first sticky thread on this foru) more interactions with chlorine better handling of high temperature materials more elements (propane, silver, etc are in the game files already) flameable implementation (might have been dismissed, but the recent datamining hints otherwise) dupe interactions (see roadmap again) There is material for at least another year of updates and that does not include the stuff that kLei (and the community) still has in store on their hidden sketch boards and inside their heads.

Klei has released multiple games with an EA phase and always finished them, so I think we can be optimistic here.

Man in the Mist Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Although even when the game leaves Early Access there's a non-zero chance that ONI will still receive updates. Just look at Don't Starve Together, they're still getting new stuff now and then.

BlueLance Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I agree with its being somewhere near the 2 year mark, I would say somewhere at the end of 2019. Also Prison Architect, great game. They are making a new game as well which is a mars simulation game IIRC.

Arash70 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I think Klei should finish Oxygen Not Included already and plan long term upgrades (like every 6-12 months).

leoroy Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 At least it's possible to achieve sustainability in the current state (compare to alpha en before geysers). There is a lot of things to add in the game, but there is a lot inside of it already!
