Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'"At its core, a Survival-Extraction Shooter like ours is all about balance.
The feel of the gunplay, whether the risk is worth the reward, if the in-game economy feels right, or if the enemies are too frustrating—these are the things that make a game 'fun' versus 'boring.'
We strongly believe the best answers to these questions don't just come from our team, but from the players who are actually in the trenches, experiencing it firsthand. Feedback from the community is essential for growing the game in a direction that everyone wants to see.
Therefore, we've decided to release into Early Access so that all of us—the dev team and the players—can work together to make Ocean Escape the most fun, challenging, and balanced game it can possibly be. We genuinely want your feedback to help us shape it."'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'"We plan for the game to be in Early Access for at least one full year, though it may be longer.
Our main goal isn't to leave Early Access as quickly as possible, but to deliver a high-quality and complete game that meets both our vision and player expectations. We will only release the full version when we feel it's truly ready, and we'll be updating our development roadmap regularly to keep you transparently informed of our progress."'

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

'"The full version will expand upon everything you experience in Early Access, making it a much larger and deeper game. Here’s what we have planned:
New Content: New islands to explore, new types of zombies and bosses with unique mechanics, and of course, a ton of new guns, armor, and items.
New Game Systems: We are considering adding new systems based on community demand, such as a base-building/customization system, a team/clan system, or other special game modes.
The Full Story: Adding the main story quests that will lead players to the conclusion of the entire narrative.
Polish and Balancing: Most importantly, incorporating all the feedback to refine the game balance and fix bugs to ensure the full version is the best possible experience."'

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

'"Right now, the core of the game is complete, playable, and fun.
You can experience the entire main gameplay loop (Deploy, Loot, Extract, Evolve), the combat system, monsters, crafting, and exploration. There is already plenty of content to keep you entertained for many hours from day one.
Of course, as a game still in development, you may encounter bugs or balance issues. These are exactly the kinds of things we need your help to find and report."'

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

'"Yes, the price will likely increase as we approach the full launch or on the day of the 1.0 release.
We view the Early Access price as a special thank-you to the players who support us and help us during the early stages of development."'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'"We will be actively listening to your feedback across several channels, primarily our Steam Forums and official Discord server.
We hope our community becomes a great place for players to interact and share their experiences. We truly believe that Ocean Escape is a game that the dev team and the players will build together. Based on discussions with the community, we plan to implement content and system improvements that may not have been in our initial plans but are highly requested by players.'
