In de laatste post van Martin Gram, programmeur van Innerloop Studios, voor Kerstmis verteld hij zijn mening over de save optie van Project IGI. De save optie houd nu in dat er na ieder level gesaved wordt, vooral in de laatste levels (zijn wat groter) kan dit een probleem worden.When we first designed IGI we didn't want the player to be able to save all the time. So we decided to make the maps relatively small (This however changed a little) to compensate the lack of saving. This seemed to work fine while developing the game.. Time pa ed and the game ran forward, hastily trying to reach our chrismas deadline..

Imagine our suprise when Eidos 1 month before our beta deadline demanded a save feature. (Probably because of the now large levels)

After a long discu ion with Eidos, we decide to estimate how long it would take to implement the save feature. After about 3 days our lead programmer returned an estimate to Eidos. As this wasn't a 2 day job, Eidos decided to waived their demand for a save feature.

This is pretty much all there is to the save feature debate. Ofcourse it would have been nice to have a limited kind of saving. But in either case it would have taken a good while to implement and that time wasn't available in november.

My advice to people desperate of a save feature is to mail Eidos, and demand that its put in the patch. Otherwise they won't care (wonder if they'll care either way) and the patch will only handle the most pre ing matters.. Voor de reakties op deze thread stuur ik je door naar het Project IGI Forum.
