Looks great! Can we please get in-game base building too? :cool:

Update: it's located in 26-27 Cambridge Science Park, Cambridge. It's more than double the size of the old building at 306, Science Park, Milton Road, Milton, Cambridge CB4 0WG, UK.

Here's another image. The building is under construction in the bottom left.

This is the location on Google Maps. My recommendation is to purchase more real-estate surrounding the new headquarters for future expansion.

I thought Cambridge Science Park would have more security with gated entrances. The roads leading into CSP don't seem to have any gates.

The front entrance isn't gated, but all the pedestrian side entrances and the back road entrance get closed outside of business hours and there's a security team on site.

Compared to Blizzard's main headquarters in Irvine (1 Blizzard Way, Irvine, CA 92618, USA), Frontier's new real-estate plot size is about 1/14th, and the office space is 1/4th. That's still pretty big. Land prices are probably higher in Cambridge.

Looks awesome. I hope the move goes well, and that Deebobe gets a sparkly new office with model spaceships hanging from the ceiling, just like I used to have.

(Seriously, when micro machines were still a thing, I used to hang star wars micro machines from my ceiling, with blu-tac and dental floss :D )

That's a big building, Frontier must be doing well financially, that's a good thing in my book.
I just hope that the big move from the old HQ to the new one won't delay the release of any updates, ya know servers being moved and re-installed, that sort of stuff.
I remember when the company I used to work for moved to another location, ugh, getting all systems back up was a nightmare.

Congrats to FD with their new home and I wish them all the best when the big move happens.

Ah good. Looks like there's lots of room for all those new, upgraded, servers I'm sure FDEV is getting to improve all the connectivity issues!

*laughes hysterically forever*


Remember. They're just a small, humble indie company!

New diggs, cool. With all that extra space for more developers, maybe they can push Atmospheric Landings out sooner than expected?....maybe?....please?....anyone?

If there are more people playing PC then it's good for Coaster. Not us. Resources are finite and they are not going to put resources to their lesser product. Notice how development has slowed to a crawl on ED?
