為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「For the Stars is a competitive first-person shooter. Early access is a great tool to receive not only user feedback on balance and map direction, but also to fully test the multiplayer system prior to launching the game. Virtual Reality is a challenging medium where users able to give feedback may be hard to reach locally, especially for a multiplayer game. Early access allows us to get a broad range of feedback from the variety of VR setups that exist. We feel that the early access tagline is our own commitment to not calling the game finished until we’ve polished the game balance and removed as many bugs as is realistically possible for mere mortals.」

這款遊戲的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久？

「Most of the core gameplay is complete. The duration of early access will extend as long as it takes to get user feedback on maps, balance, and test multiplayer functionally. The goal is 3-4 months.」

正式版預計會與搶先體驗版有何不同？

「The full version will have a continually expanded map list along with several playlists for solo and team based play. A party system to easily join matches with your friends. Cross-play with Oculus Rift and other VR headsets. User base is a challenge in competitive games in the VR space currently, so finding a way to keep the content exciting for those who come back is critical to a final version of the game.」

搶先體驗版目前的開發進度如何？

「The current state of the game is a very functional multiplayer FPS system. We’ve buffed out as many game breaking bugs as we can find, and our main gameplay is entirely implemented and includes:

• 3 Hand-crafted maps
  
• 5 Unique weapons
  
• 1 Game type
  
• Stats and Leveling System.
  
• Online Multiplayer with built in voice chat and matchmaking.

遊戲售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎？

「There will be a price increase upon leaving early access.」

在開發過程中，您打算如何與社群互動？

「Community involvement is key for success in VR multiplayer games. Along with the steam discussion boards there will be an open discord channel where features and maps will be discussed with the community.」
