Miksi Early Access?

Squad Of Dangerous is quite an experimental project, so the decision was made to develop this game together with its audience. By now it contains a humble amount of content, but enough to have fun and give the idea of how it's going to expand.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

We want to see that the game is working and it contains enough content, so, how long it will take to get out of early access heavily depends on player feedback. If we understand that the game in its current state is interesting and needs only expansion, it's going to be all about the content. I think a couple of years will be ok to make enough content for release. But that doesn't mean it will stop growing in any way, game evolution is going to continue after leaving the early access stage.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

What we're currently planning to add: different kinds of missions (more interesting playable scenarios with different goals), different maps (different locations, e.g. flying planes, ships, underground, etc.), different player roles (now we have infantry and artillery, but we're ready to implement more, such as vehicles, snipers, maybe even HQ with ability to send ally troops), different interactivity on the mission (like walls destructibility, exploding barrels and more), different weapons (I. WANT. FLAMETHROWER), and so on, there are a lot of different ideas to handle, but it's all gonna be affected by player feedback. We want to make a cool game, but even more we want to make a cool game you will love to play.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

In our opinion, the price should reflect the amount of games content. That's how it is at the beginning of early access and while content will grow, price will also grow accordingly.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

First of all, we're going to collect feedback, automatically over game and by reading players reviews. Maybe later we'll make some kind of voting for features to implement. In any way - we are going to make our development process player feedback based, and we're gonna take it seriously.
