Will the first alpha be private for limited users?
-
Hello,
Just wanted to ask if the first alpha will be for limited users,
And if yes, then what do I need to do to get in?Thx!

@seanrmp The alpha will consist of multiple waves, starting with alpha 1. Alpha access will be one of the Kickstarter rewards. The higher the tier, the earlier you'll get in. For more information, please read the FAQ.
Moving this to Questions & Answers.

Any time frame on the launch of the Kickstarter campaign?
-
Yeah, kickstarters are nice. Hopefully, attainable goals will be listed.

We can't give a time frame as of today - the more funding we manage to raise before, the later the Kickstarter is going to happen. It will most likely be in the first half of 2018 though!
-
@prometheus Maybe the top 100 foundry leaderboard people can get into the early access too or something similar?
-
@flotsam It will be to beautiful, but I hope too x)

~chuckles~
I have an odd feeling that would be a bad business strategy, but I can tell you, they already said Alpha Access won't be overly expansive (not in the hundreds of dollars).

Eheh sorry, honestly it's unlikely we're going to do that - The Foundation is about cosmetic rewards (and premium currency), not game access :slight_smile:

Well, they said they won't go in the hundreds (which is what I mentioned in my post
)@prometheus said in New info coming?:
(...)@logain said in New info coming?:
Some games go in the thousands, some in the hundreds
We definitely won't go in the thousands nor in the hundreds for Beta/Alpha access!

But the FAQ says:
- When will Fractured be available to the public?
Alpha testing for high-tier backers is set to begin in 2018. Once the start of our Kickstarter campaign approaches, we’ll release more precise estimates on the major milestones from Alpha 1 to final game release.

It doesn't mention what 'high-tier' is, though? Well, I guess only @prometheus is going to be able to tell us
