早期アクセスにした理由

“Despite many months of design, development, play-testing and quality assurance, we feel that there is still a whole heap of room for potential improvement in Concrete And Steel. And what better way for us to improve, balance and tweak the game than to open it up to the gaming community for you to give us your feedback about the game.

While we feel that Concrete And Steel is already a fun and playable game, we strongly believe that we should always be completely honest about the state of the game. Calling this a "final completed game" in it's current state would misrepresent the game, and we do not want to upset or disappoint people that buy the game in its current state thinking that it's a final, completed, shelf-ready game.

We're not afraid of comments, criticism and suggestions - we want to make this game the best it can possibly be, and we don't feel we can do that without the help of the community to tell us what needs to be polished.”

このゲームは大体どのくらいの期間早期アクセスですか？

“The game will be in Early Access until we (as a company and as a community) decide that the game is ready to be called a "finished product". We don't expect this to be a long process, but we want to get a good view of the early adopter's feedback and make changes based on that feedback.”

早期アクセスバージョンと計画されているフルバージョンの違いは？

“The Early Access version of Concrete And Steel has the main features and content that we always planned for the final version of the game, including multiplayer support, building, painting, wires and interactive objects. However, during the development several features have been requested that we didn't anticipate (workshop support, challenges, etc) so once we've dealt with initial user feedback and bugfixing we will work on those features prior to coming out of Early Access.

With that said, we want to make it clear that we will continue to improve the game after released based on feedback and suggestions.”

早期アクセスバージョンの現状はどうなっていますか？

“Currently in the game you can build using over 150 objects and a whole range of paintable textures, and play on a whole host of environments. We also have very stable multiplayer with both peer-to-peer and dedicated server modes, which has been built from the ground up.”

早期アクセス期間中と期間後ではゲームの価格は変わりますか？

“Currently we anticipate that pricing will be consistent between Early Access and final release versions.”

どうやって開発プロセスにコミュニティを参加させる予定ですか？

“The community is the whole reason for going down the Early Access route. We will be actively participating in the community both on and off Steam to listen to user's gripes and suggestions and actively improve the game based on this.”
