Защо „Ранен достъп“?

„Ship the Game to Steam Users
Early Access is a great way to have Hover Tank Arena shipped to you in a playable and enjoyable state while further development and expansion continues. It is an opportunity for you to support this game now so a more robust set of game mechanics and features can continually be added to it as the game grows!“

Приблизително колко дълго тази игра ще бъде в „Ранен достъп“?

„Online Multiplayer is the Goal for a Full Release
This game will be in early access until Online Multiplayer can be fully implemented. I estimate it is going to be between 8 to 10 months from release that Online Multiplayer will be a part of the game.

Game mechanics and cosmetic upgrades will continue to be developed along side the Multiplayer version of the game. The Single-Player version that currently exists will continue to expand and grow as the Multiplayer is being developed.“

Как ще се различава планираната пълна версия от тази в „Ранен достъп“?

„The Full Version is a Complete Experience
Along with the goal of multiplayer, many game mechanics are going to be added to the Hover Tanks and the Combat model. Hover Tanks (HTs) will have "Upgrades" that will buff the HTs chassis in different ways. Planned additions are along the lines of; Energy Shields, Armor Plating, Boosters, and more! Also, HTs will have "Add Ons" that can bolt to each chassis to add functions. Planned Add Ons are; Radar (adds mini map and target cycling), Smoke Screens, Drones, Field Repair Bots, EMPs, and more!

Along with game mechanics, HTs will have multi cosmetic features as well:
Paint Schemes (Customize your HT)
HT Driver Avatars (Customize your driver)
Mech Select (Choose the different Mechs for your team)

Game Modes
The full version of the game will have different game modes available as well. Currently, the plan is that these will be playable in Single-Player and Multi-Player modes.
Capture the Flag
Territory Control
Team Deathmatch
Invasion
...and more...“

Какво е текущото състояние на версията в „Ранен достъп“?

„Plays Like You Expect!
The game is fully functional as a Single-Player Arena Combat game against AI teams. The current game mode is an "Arena" mode and is Team Based. You play as the "Green" Team against HTs and Mechs on the "Blue" and "Red" Teams. Your Team consists of your HT and at least one AI wingman HT and one AI Mech. To win a match, you must destroy all other combatants. Surviving a match with other Teams still in play results in a "DRAW". Dying is a "LOSS".

Every time you win in an Arena, you unlock the next Arena to play. Every time you gain a Tier Level, you unlock more weapons you are able to purchase.

You can buy more HTs with XP you gain during gameplay.“

Ще има ли разлика в цената на играта по време на „Ранен достъп“ и след това?

„Own the Entire Game
The price of the game will increase at full-release once Multiplayer is added. It will not increase as more game mechanics or cosmetics are added or while in Early Access. Only the "Full Release" of the game will result in a price increase.“
