Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Early Access allows us to release the game and tune it with real players. This is especially important for a multiplayer game like Utopos, where the gameplay will involve up to 8, and possibly even more, players simultaneously. The first release has up to 4 players in a fight and we'll increase the limit and add more game modes over time.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'The early access period for Utopos might be quite short, possibly about 3 months, but no guarantees! Our previous game, URG, was scheduled to be in Early Access for 6 months, but in the end, it took 13 months before the full version was released.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The Early Access game will launch will one online arena, which will allow us to tune the gameplay. Once the game runs perfectly and both us, and the players, are happy with it, we plan on creating multiple arenas for the full release. The full release will likely also feature more ships and more weapons.'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The first release of the Early Access version is fully playable with up to 8 players. We have persistent player data storage in the cloud, and all the core components of the game are working. We have not done large-scale testing and currently do not know how many players we could support at maximum, how well the gameplay works if players are on different continents, etc.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'The Early Access pricing is reduced compared to the final release. Our previous game saw price double when it left Early Access. We have not made the final decision on the pricing of Utopos yet.'
