Varför Early Access?

“1. Need to test if all features work as expected, expecially pvp functionality (connection stability, potential lagging, etc.).
2. Need to add multi-language support and user settings (sound volume, graphic quality, key bindings, etc.).
3. Need to optimize user experience (alleviate motion sickness, reduce clipping issues when in first person modes, etc.).
4. Need to check impacts from mouse DPI and frame rate (now clipped at 65 FPS maximum for safety)
5. Need to improve or add more art assets (character modeling, skin texturing, environment meshes, background texturing...).
6. Need to collect potential bug reports.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“Around 6 months”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“1. Solve all known bugs (hopefully).
2. Multi-language support.
3. More setting options (sound volume, graphic quality, key bindings, etc.).
4. Improved pvp experience (improved stability, reduced lagging), and possibly adding friend invitation functionality.
5. Better art assets. Possible finer character customization. Also potentially adding more realistic boxing ring environments (so not just black backgrounds everywhere). But this needs to be tested as it might worsen the motion sickness.
6. Improved (smarter) AI. Potentially adding difficulty selection if I managed to make the AI smart enough. (PS: In this game all the AI characters share same HP, stamina, and damage rates as the player character. So the difficulty solely depends on the AI smartless).
7. Potential joystick support.
8. Potential better tutorials explaining gaming controls and mechanics if collected enough feedbacks saying it's not clear enough.
9. Potential better physics simulation.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“All core features are implemented.
Work in progress with respect to the final version:
1. Currently only English supported, but localization is scheduled.
2. Already some basic user settings like mouse sensitvity, TPS camera distance and FPS FOV. Also players can choose to play as red or blue corner, with basic character appearance customization. More settings coming soon.
3. Now PvP is working, but found a known issue that the replication from client to server is worse than the replication from server to client, causing lagging of game play. This is being looked into.
4. Now only basic art assets are applied, optimization in progress.
5. The AI is now working and can be strong enough if players are not familiar with the game controls and mechanics, but can be further improved.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?
