Seth Posted June 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 We're going to release the game fairly early to Early Access and try to get Open Alpha 3 out in less than 2 months afterwards. This is the last wait, after this the game will remain open for many months for everyone. We need to prepare for a big lengthy test. The game is going to have a hard time remaining active as is, since there's not a lot of content. I hate giving dates cause they are hard to meet, but right now there's plans for a test in the coming weeks. Expect it in less than a month, most likely less than 2 weeks. This is what helps make the game possible. We do Early Access tests, because it allows us to test it like a real test. Once we fix all the bugs and problems, this won't be a problem in the real launch. This is why we spend so long ensuring the game will do well on launch day. Launch day for alpha is not the same as beta or release, but we have further plans to port the game to a new engine during beta which won't take that long. Although, we're keeping the game up and developing it side by side with additional programmers. It is a long journey for us, but we want the game to be successful. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if the game doesn't have much content it would be better online than offline in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth Posted June 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Even if the game doesn't have much content it would be better online than offline in my opinion. As a marketer, I disagree. No game should be open in alpha. We are a rare breed that developed from the ground up around a community. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mart456 Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I can't believe I missed this!! I'm glad that there is a new model however. Regarding what Seth said earlier about allowing members to play while the game is being developed. I like that idea alot! It allows the devs to take some time and appreciate their hard work and it will keep the site up and running. Ya know, keep the site alive. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like all of that hard work has paid off. I'm looking forward to the full opening for the game. There should be a special event just for the first day of opening. Like a special event or something. I'm thinking, we should do another in-game picture right before the final opening release. Now that would be nice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
