为何要采用抢先体验这种模式？

“Shadows of Doubt has been in development for many years, so we didn’t take the decision to launch into Early Access lightly. Being open and transparent, we’ve had a lot of serious discussions about how and when to launch the game. Given the massive scope of the game and the nature of its AI systems, launching in Early Access first allows us to identify any unusual edge case issues that may be discovered and react to them during a non-final version of the game, rather than have players discover them in what is considered to be a ‘final’ release. We’ll also be adding additional content, along with further technical optimisations and balancing improvements that player feedback will help us shape.”

这款游戏的抢先体验状态大约持续多久？

“We are now looking at extending early access through to 2024 after the game's successful launch and after all the feedback we have received for what people want to see in the game. Check the roadmap on the store page to see what is planned!”

计划中的完整版本和抢先体验版本到底有多少不同？

“The full version of Shadows of Doubt will include additional content and optimisations that will be introduced throughout Early Access. We are currently planning to add new content such as new and improved cases, new locations and new citizen interaction options, along with a more rounded and polished game experience.

You can see the roadmap on the Steam page below!”

抢先体验版本的现状如何？

“The game is in a very advanced state of development and functionally complete with a full suite of features, cases, content and a complete Sandbox Mode, beyond what you may usually expect from an Early Access title.

However, given the massive scope of the game and nature of its systems, we expect some bugs and unusual edge cases to be encountered for the first time at the launch of Early Access. Launching in Early Access allows us to identify any of these unusual issues and react to them, rather than have players discover them in what is considered to be a ‘final’ release.”

在抢先体验期间和结束之后，游戏价格会有所不同吗？

“The game may be priced differently for the 1.0 release depending on development updates throughout Early Access.”

在开发过程中，你们是如何计划让玩家社区参与进来的？

“We’d love to get as much feedback from the community as possible to help shape the continued development of the game. We encourage everyone who would like to be part of the game’s community to join our Discord and leave their thoughts in the Steam forums. Receiving critical and constructive feedback from players during active development will really help us as we work towards full launch.”
