Hvorfor tidlig tilgang?

«We make games for players who know and love in-depth RPGs & strategy games. Early Access gives us an opportunity to make sure we’re finishing the game with what you want in mind before bringing it to a wider audience.

We’ve run EAs for multiple games before and have a proven track record of EA success on Steam. It’s a core part of our process that gives us space to invest more in the systems players find most fun and create additional storylines based on player ideas and experiences.

In a Trese Brothers game’s Early Access, we prioritize making sure updates never break your save games and we share frequent progress reports and roadmap updates so you can see how the game is progressing toward completion - not lingering in perpetual EA. We listen to players, add new content regularly, and deliver on our promises.»

Hvor lenge antas det at dette spillet vil være i tidlig tilgang?

«Approximately 9-12 months. We have a clear roadmap for content and feature expansion, but have kept enough room for player feedback and discoveries to rework systems to better versions if needed, or add awesomeness where players help us find a big opportunity for it.»

Hvordan er det planlagt at fullversjonen skal være forskjellig fra versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«We're planning a lot more content, more heist awesomeness, modding, and translations.

We plan to double the number of classes in the game for you to build your squad from, many bringing new features like companion units (e.g. cybernetic hunds, drones) and disintegrating bodies. Character build possibilities are also planned to expand with:
* cybernetic implants
* more weapons, weapon mods, and gear
* even more visual customization options for your squad members and their equipment.

We plan to have more than 10 times the current amount of story content. We already have a sizable pipeline of in-progress levels we are completing and rolling out over the next few months. As EA progresses, we plan to add more storylines of all kinds -- world events, jobs for hire, squad member storylines, and ultimately, game completion storylines. This is one of the areas where EA really gives players an opportunity to make an impact, as storylines inspired by their gameplay, ideas, and feedback could get worked into the game.

We plan to bring new game systems including equipment crafting and safehouse base-building online during EA, and plan to expand existing systems like heist leverage and planning options.

Finally, by full launch we plan to have modding support completed and translations for the languages we see the most demand for.»

Hva er nåværende tilstand for versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«✅ With one exception (base building), all core features of the game -- tactical stealth & combat, hacking, 6 squad member classes & talent trees, and the strategy layer of your underworld network, heist planning & favor trading for advantages -- are ready to play!

✅ The game is save stable. Updates will never invalidate a save game

✅ 15-20 hours of story content are already available to discover on any playthrough.»

Vil spillet være priset annerledes under og etter tidlig tilgang?

«No.»

Hvordan planlegger dere å involvere samfunnet i utviklingsprosessen?

«We believe good communities help build amazing games. We’re here constantly to engage and gather feedback and learn from our players how to improve the game wherever we can.

We are also active daily interacting with players on our discord: https://discord.gg/tresebrothers

Players can see our last game, Star Traders: Frontiers, a Steam “Best of Early Access” award winner we’ve made 300+ free updates to and participated in thousands of community hub discussions in, to see how involved we are with our wonderful player communities.»
