Varför Early Access?

“We really value our players’ opinions and want to make sure that our community have a say in how we continue to develop Blast Out, and Early Access is a great platform for these reasons.

Early Access will allow us to create a bigger and better Blast Out experience, and we want to invite the community to participate by giving us honest feedback, opinions and even ideas for what they would like to see in the game.

In the end, you, the players, are the ones who enable us to be game developers and do what we love, so why shouldn't you be able to help us develop our game in the right direction for you?”

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

“It is hard to say exactly when Blast Out will leave Early Access since we want to make sure that the game is really tight and polished before we move into commercial launch. Our goal until then is to add more features, a lot of content and to improve the performance of the game. Our current plan for Blast Out is to release within 6 months.”

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

“The Early Access version delivers the core of Blast Out so that you can experience what the game is all about. Many features are still in development and will be implemented in future updates. A key aspect of the Early Access process is for us to be able to work together with you and discover what features you want and we can provide.

That being said, here's a list of some of our planned features and improvements:

• Optimize the game for stability and performance.
  
• Gameplay balance aiming for perfection.
  
• Ranked game mode with leagues.
  
• New arenas with unique mechanics.
  
• Further expand on the ability pool.
  
• Content production (cool new items and other customization options)
  
• Improve social functions (chat, profiles).
  
• Improve HUD and menus.
  
• Better progression and reward systems

”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The game is currently fully playable, with 34 available abilities, 3 unique deadly arenas and 3 different, fully customizable characters.

The game’s servers and backend supports function like a matchmaking (alone or in groups), chat, profile and an account progression system.

If you enjoy looking awesome while playing, the game also includes over 200 combinations of unlockable gear available simply from playing the game.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Different payment models and methods are currently being evaluated and a final decision has yet to be made. We do, however, want to reward the players who believe in the game and are willing to join us early on in this journey. In other words, whether it is in the form of a lower price tag or in some other way, Early Access-players will get some kind of benefit.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“We are always looking for feedback and ideas through our community. As we've previously mentioned, we want the development of Blast Out to be a collaboration between developers and players. Particularly engaged players may also be given more direct means of communication to the developers and be integrated into the development process. The more you give the more we can give back!

We're also developing a partner program for Content Creators which you can read more about on our website.”
