Hvorfor tidlig adgang?

“Although Deichgraf has everything it needs to be played as intended, we want to extend the content for which we already have ideas. With an Early Access we hope to determine what and how this content can be integrated. Additionally we see it as an opportunity to find and remove as many bugs as possible - if there are bugs at all ;) Therefore feedback from the community is much appreciated.”

Hvor lang tid vil dette spil være i tidlig adgang?

“We expect to be in Early Access for at least 12 months. But since the future is unpredictable, this is subject to change.”

Hvorledes kommer den fulde version til at være anderledes end produktet i tidlig adgang?

“We plan to implement a few more buildings and one or two resources to extend the economic aspect and with this to get closer to historic circumstances. Visual improvements and additions, like animals, trees, boats or a day-night cycle are also planned. Furthermore we would like to integrate the external map editor we currently use for ingame map generation. Finally we would like additional/improved music and sound effects to find their way into Deichgraf. But please understand that we can’t promise this.”

Hvad er den nuværende tilstand for versionen med tidlig adgang?

• landscaping tools (ditches and dikes) for water flow manipulation,
  
• a water simulation based on the laws of physics
  
• weather system with impact on gameplay and visuals
  
• background music and some sound effects

Ændrer spillets pris sig under og efter tidlig adgang?
