Alpha or something before KS?
-
The title is self-explanatory
-
@detonawill As of right now, the alphas come after the Kickstarter, not before.
-
I see, thanks
-
Well there will be pre-alpha for people that reach high enough level in Foundation and it will be before alpha and beta for Kickstarter bakers.
-
@specter Does the pre-alpha come before the kickstarter?
-
@chrightt The pre-alpha won't happen before the Kickstarter either, assuming the Kickstarter takes place this spring.
-
@specter it happens after kickstarter but before kickstarter alpha, right?
-
@specter You told me before that the KS would start this winter or so. I'm still waiting for it
-
@tulukaruk Kickstarter --> Pre-alpha --> Alpha 1.
@Frost Well, the initial plan was fall of 2017, but it got postphoned to spring of 2018.
-
@specter Oh damn, here I was getting excited since we are already in Winter :x
-
Since the pre-alpha has that NDA, a few dozen keys could go out pre-kickstarter. When KS starts the NDA is dropped (specific for that test) so those players can give feedback in the KS comments and here on the forums. I understand that pre-alpha stage isn't a really good time to hype the game but I'm skeptical about how it'll work out in a game. I've been overpromised before.
I'd label it 'pre-kickstarter test' and the keys would only be used for said test. I've seen kickstarter test happen before. enough to let people get in for a week or while the campaign was going.
-
@frost No worries frost its almost spring...
-
@gibbx Ahah well that's true
