为何要采用抢先体验这种模式？

“One of the main reasons behind this decision is feedback. We expect that involving community this early in the development will help us balance the game in the following months. We hope to reach out to the community while we develop, adjust and improve the game. FreeTowns have been in development for one year and is playable, pretty polished, generally bug free and have already been played by thousands of players during our closed alphas. Having completed the core gameplay features, we believe it is time to share the game with players before proceeding further with the development.”

这款游戏的抢先体验状态大约持续多久？

“Feedback from our community might have an impact on our priorities and milestones, but we expect to be in Early Access for around 3 -6 months. While the main module is ready (town building) we still need to introduce the politics, the press and the war modules.”

计划中的完整版本和抢先体验版本到底有多少不同？

“The final version will include three additional sections. The politics, war and press modules. In the final version players will be able to vote change taxes or bonuses, declare war on other countries, form political parties, write articles...while building their towns.”

抢先体验版本的现状如何？

“Currently the game is fully playable and generally bug free with over 20 types of buildings (each having 5 levels). You can start building a great town that will keep you busy for months to come. The current version contains all of the core elements that make up the FreeTowns experience : build / renovate buildings or roads, recruit new citizens, extract raw materials and so on. The town construction area is 100% ready. We've put a great deal of work into making sure these core elements feel polished and fun, and they're all in the game today.”

在抢先体验期间和结束之后，游戏价格会有所不同吗？

“We plan to have a cheaper Early Access version compared to the final release. This is both as a thank you to people who support us at this early stage.”

在开发过程中，你们是如何计划让玩家社区参与进来的？

“We will focus on delivering more quality content to the game while adjusting and improving features based either feedback, ideas or other player patterns that we might discover during the Early Access. Whether this means addressing a previously unknown bug, or tweaking some numbers, we'll be doing our best to stay in pace with polishing the game along with adding new content.”
