FG for Starfinder - update on ETA?

[Kezzt]

I assume from threads that you are working on a FG ruleset for Starfinder. Can anyone give an updated ETA on such a ruleset?

"When It's Done™"

There was never an ETA to update. SmiteWorks never announced ETAs until they're fairly confident the product will arrive on time. Once they're finished with it, Paizo has to certify it so there's a little extra time tacked onto any official *finder projects.

I believe it's Soon(TM)

Yes, but sometimes I feel like I've worn that one out so I went all the way back to the 3D Realms "When it's done!" Because I can!

We don't have a firm ETA but we are trying our best to keep the development down to the 1-3 month range for an initial release. We've discussed internally doing an Early Access style release and then going back and adding additional functionality at a later date instead of trying to get the perfect ruleset out the gate at release. A focus on the critical stuff would get people playing sooner rather than later.

Yea, star finder is hot right now, you definitely want to strike while the iron is hot.

You could always go with what Bioware used to say back when Bioware was Bioware (i.e. still good); "When it's done."

Hi, I'm just checking. I have been looking for news recently and found this. Its been a good 3 months since this update. My group is finishing up a D&D campaign and are discussing what to play next. Was hoping Starfinder might be ready or maybe a beta to test it out as we play.

Any updates you can give? Beta test options?

Thanks

It's getting very close to getting into beta.

The team is very close to wrapping up the final pieces of the ruleset and most of the Core Rulebook module has been built. It will most likely be January for a final release.
