Replay mode has been in Prototype for last several months. Any ETA on release?

As a matter of fact, replay mode is already there in the code. You can clearly find it there already (well it takes some tools and skills), or at least some traces of it.

The only reason it is not publicly available was best said by Sebastian himself:

Other questions

I might have wrongly understood but didn’t Sebastian told in the Q&A they do have a replay system already but it is only used for their Video capture needs where it can help them producing videos without any stutter?

This begs a question: we were told in previous Q&A the screenshots and videos they are presenting are always from the simulator version we also have, not a future version. However it has been brought a few times: some were wondering how do the official videos are showing stuff we can’t repro with our versions, such as building/terrain draw distance in ULTRA without stutters. The answer has been so far they’re running it on high end machines, but isn’t it just because the videos are recorded from a replay system designed to eliminating stutters instead? I’m puzzled with this one?!

Therefore I believe we shouldn’t assume they’d need to allocate resource to implementing replay, rather, they’d need to allocate resources removing the code which is hiding the feature already coded and implemented.

Yeah, Asobo mentioned they have had replay for a long time, but that it worked on a second monitor. I think that’s why they put it in “Prototype” status for the last 3 months. But sadly, it’s still in “Prototype” status for 3 months so they didn’t make any movement on it. Sebastian said the team that was working on replay was working on other stuff in the last while so that’s why progress on it had halted. I hope they get back to finishing replay.
