Miért a Korai Hozzáférés?

„AGP::Epica has been designed as a solid platform to house a robust character creation system, open skill system and dynamic quest system - all in an open world for the players to explore while facing an onslaught of enemies and challenges.

While that underlying system has been mostly established [armour is missing], the content to fill that foundation still requires development, testing and optimization.

At this point of the development process, multiplayer testing of the existing features is required as as well as community feedback as each new quest, skill, weapon, world and vehicle gets added.”

Körülbelül mennyi ideig lesz ez a játék a Korai Hozzáférésben?

„2 years total. As of June 2017: 6 months in and development is on track, 18 months remaining.

This is to provide the most polished game upon release possible, with the most amount of development and provide players with a product which is feature complete (again, armour missing currently), and a fully flushed out skill tree.”

Eltérően lesz árazva a játék a korai hozzáférés alatt és azt követően?

„The game will transition to a free to play model.

Support packs will be available for players to purchase in game customizations, however the core game will be open for players to play without restriction.

What am I paying for in the alpha/beta?
You'll be given access to content exclusive to those who support this game early, such as weapon & armour, customization skins and in game achievements.”

Hogyan tervezitek bevonni a közösséget a fejlesztés folyamatába?

„By listening to community feedback and developing alongside the player base I believe is the only acceptable way to develop a game in this modern age. Allowing players Early Access allows a WYSIWYG experience - but with the ability for players to provide feedback to enhance the gaming experience.

Primarily desired feedback:

• Interruptions to game play flow
  
• Multiplayer bugs/finalization
  
• Skill balance issues
  
• Feature requests
