Miért a Korai Hozzáférés?

„We want to create a truly useful tool for competitive sailors and to achieve that, we believe it’s the best to work closely with innovators and early adopters in the sailing community.

We’ve experience in releasing Early Access titles on Steam ( see VR Regatta ) and we believe the nature of this project makes it a perfect fit for Early Access model.”

Körülbelül mennyi ideig lesz ez a szoftver a Korai Hozzáférésben?

„6-24 months depending on community needs and involvement.”

A tervek szerint miben fog különbözni a teljes verzió a korai hozzáférésűtől?

„Initial Early Access version will be based on a core from VR Regatta. On that foundation are planning to work on following features:

• Adding more sail controls ( like cunningham and the boom vang ) to the boat.
  
• Improving the physics model, including sailboat inertia, capsizing, etc.
  
• Improving AI of the opponent sailboats to make interactions on the race course more realistic
  
• Adding full implementation of international racing rules

The whole point of releasing in Early Access is to work with the community on the actual features based on the needs of real life sailors. We will be interacting with users to learn what should be implemented to make the tool useful.”

Milyen állapotban van jelenleg a korai hozzáférésű verzió?

„It's a sail-able sandbox, with the level of sailing realism similar to VR Regatta.”

Eltérően lesz árazva a szoftver a korai hozzáférés alatt és azt követően?

„We will adjust the price based on the community up-take of the product.

Our aim is to make the project self-sustainable, which means we may need to increase the price if the product is really niche, but we hope to be able to reduce the price if enough people buy in.”
