Miksi Early Access?

Global Conflict Blue: Horizon is a large‑scale, real‑time warfare simulator that aims to explore the complexities of multi-domain conflict. Delivering that vision means balancing the simulation engine, interface, database, and customization tools — and Early Access gives us the chance to refine these systems with the community’s input.

By releasing in Early Access, we can:
- Balance and refine tactical and operational gameplay with feedback from players.
- Expand the database of platforms and technologies based on community priorities.
- Improve usability of the interface and scenario editor through real‑world testing.
- Shape the future of Horizon together, ensuring the final release reflects its community.

Our goal is to create an enduring simulation platform. Early Access is the best way to achieve that — with your feedback guiding the journey.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

We expect Global Conflict Blue: Horizon to remain in Early Access for 12 to 18 months. This timeframe allows us to expand content, refine the simulation engine, and integrate community feedback directly into development. Our goal is to deliver a stable, intuitive experience that supports long‑term play, customization, and modding.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

We plan to focus on these areas for the full release:
• Enhanced Space Domain – Deeper mechanics and tools for space operations, with improved integration into the game.
• Greater Realism – Refined simulation fidelity, more accurate modeling of sensors, communications, weapons, and tactics.
• Expanded Content – A larger database of platforms and technologies, along with additional scenarios covering both historical and near‑future conflicts.
• Intuitive Interface – Continued refinement of the UI to make complex systems clear and accessible, supporting immersion without sacrificing depth
• Multiplayer (Exploratory) – The core simulation already supports multiplayer, and we are exploring adding UI support and gameplay features to bring multiplayer into Horizon in the future.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

We plan to gradually increase the price of the game as new features, content, and improvements are added throughout Early Access. Players who join early will receive the game at a lower price and will continue to receive future updates at no additional cost.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

We plan to involve the community by:
- Community Feedback – Gathering input through Steam forums, community discussions, and surveys to guide balance, usability, and feature priorities.
- Scenario Sharing – Enabling players to create and share scenarios with the built‑in editor, giving us insight into the types of content the community values most.
- Modding and Customization – Supporting database and gameplay customization, and listening to community requests for expanded tools and documentation.
- Development Updates – Providing updates on progress, upcoming features, and design decisions so players know how their feedback is shaping the game.
