Perché l'accesso anticipato?

“With our unique mission mode and unprecedented resource management mechanics, Early Access offers the perfect platform to refine these innovative features, ensuring that it reaches its full potential upon full release.”

Per quanto tempo questo gioco rimarrà in accesso anticipato?

“The duration of the Early Access phase will depend on various factors, including community feedback, the implementation of new features, and overall game development progress. We anticipate a period of 2-4 years in Early Access, during which we'll continuously iterate and refine the game.”

Quali saranno le differenze fra la versione completa e quella in accesso anticipato?

“During Early Access, our focus lies on the following improvements:

Mission mode

• Refine the mission game mode until it reaches its full potential.
  
• Achieve 3-6 playable factions
  
• Add more biomes, missions and side objectives
  
• Allow players to interact with friends on their home islands.

Art

• Overhaul the current low-poly 3D models to a high-poly, detailed art style
  
• Improve sound effects and extend soundtrack

Other

• Add more more in-game friend interactions through parties, chat and steam community features
  
• Add higher AI difficulties
  
• Extend modding capabilities

”

Qual è lo stato attuale della versione in accesso anticipato?

“Currently, you can play tutorial challenges, cooperative missions with 1-4 players on procedurally generated maps in three unique biomes or skirmish with up to 8 players or AI on handcrafted maps. There are three factions for competitive play and one faction for missions.”

Il prezzo del gioco varierà durante e dopo l'accesso anticipato?

“For the pricing, our main consideration is to keep the the PvP game mode as well as workshop content accessible to as many players as possible. Therefore, we do not expect Arcane Wilds to have a significantly higher price on release and we will also consider a price reduction.

For the mission mode, we plan to release new factions regularly in the form of DLCs.

For PvP, we might add purchasable, purely cosmetic content. All PvP factions will always be available to everyone who has obtained the base game.”

Come pensi di coinvolgere la Comunità durante il processo di sviluppo?

“We are actively engaging with players through platforms like the Steam community forums, Discord and Reddit. We are interested in opinions of both unexperienced and experienced RTS players.

While we won't incorporate every suggestion for obvious reasons, we welcome feedback, suggestions, and discussions on all aspects of the game. It is likely that the involvement of the community will add new ideas we would like to explore and possible even bring into the final product in some form.”
