Kenapa Akses Awal?

“FortressCraft Phoenix is a growing, live game with potentially many years of development planned. What is released on day 1 will not reflect what is available after a year or ten years of development. Once all of the ideas on the public design documents are implemented, stable and polished, the game will leave Early Access.”

Berapa lama permainan ini dijangka akan berada dalam Akses Awal?

“Until it's polished, bug-free and ready. I'll guess at least 3 years!”

Apakah perbezaan yang dirancang antara versi penuh dan versi Akses Awal?

“The Early Access version will have progression gaps and unbalanced gameplay elements. The plan is to improve these with community feedback before leaving Early Access.

The initial release should contain the complete gameplay from initial base setup to destruction of the overminds, a task that's about 100 hours of gameplay. Frozen Factory, Toxic Tekworks and Magma Mines will come in as development continues, finishing up with space-based gameplay.”

Bagaimanakah keadaan semasa versi Akses Awal?

“Currently, the game is fully playable from the initial base build until Chapter 10, which is the destruction of the Overminds, taking around 100 hours. The Frozen Factory will be locked off initially, until the surface gameplay is polished up. Right now, all of the new Phoenix multiblock machines are working, survival, building, logistics, manufacturing, freight, rooms and resin handling gameplay are fully-working, but some assets may be placeholder, and gameplay may be unbalanced, and render performance may be lacking in certain areas.”

Adakah harga permainan ini berbeza semasa dan selepas Akses Awal?

“The price is expected to stay the same over the course of the game's lifespan.”
